DSCR Loans only available when property is fully finished and turnkey, however you might want to look into a lender that offers ground-up construction loans and DSCR.Also - be careful around the modular home / quick property types since these mortgage loans typically have to be secured by foundational real estate, so anything that can be moved or not fully foundational is probably a no-go (can't foreclose/protect the investment as a lender)
