From source code:
<a class="nextinst" data-dismiss="modal" data-toggle="modal" href="#401">
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-right"></span>
</a>
I want to get #401
I have unsuccessfully tried
$('.nextinst').attr('href').val()
$('.nextinst').attr('href').html()
$('.nextinst').attr('href').text()
After I recover it, I then want to check if the modal with that id has been loaded in the DOM.

To get the value of an attribute use attr()
:
$('.nextinst').attr('href');
See example:
$(document).ready(function () {
console.log($('.nextinst').attr('href'));
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<a class="nextinst" data-dismiss="modal" data-toggle="modal" href="#401">
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-right"></span>
</a>

you can add an ID for that element and call the attr()
to get the attribute of href use the this:
function clickIt(){
var val = $("#linkHref").attr("href");
alert(val);
}
