I randomly picked three OTC parcels in an Arizona county and did some basic research.

@Bruce Bennett It's great that you're being cautious when researching DSCR lenders!

From what I've researched, it's the less than ideal situation to be in because of the reasons you've stated.

You may want to research the term ' Debt Financed Distribution' Which does have a tax implication for the investors receiving a distribution.

Quote from @Mike Sfera: If I'm a first time rental investor, will I be able to hire a property manager to help me with research, etc. prior to getting my first property or will they only work with you if you already have a property? 

Just make sure you do you research on Manufactured guide lines and requirements. 

Once the time is right, with enough research, I would jump into a market (hopefully local if affordable) and get started.

I just did some research and responded to you with my thoughts.

Doing your research and finding an experienced seller to guide you is key to ensuring successful commercial transactions.

I have been listening to BiggerPockets for a couple of months now and have been doing my own research over the past several months as well.
