Hi. Yea it is not easy starting out but it does get a lot easier over time. You will be ok if you study the game and learn from this forum. I would also advice to join a RE group local to you. I STRONGLY RECOMMEND talking to @Shawn Mcenteer as he's based in your area and has several investment properties. Shawn, you can probably help with these questions especially in the NJ market.
To answer your questions:
No major disadvantages really other than the rate is significantly higher than a conventional loan. Also, usually, there is a 5 year period where you pay a penalty if you sell the place or refinance it.
What to avoid? Just keep your personal credit in good condition (don't make any big purchases) and keep a lot of liquid funds on hand
DSCR lenders can be hard to find. I know of one based in NY. They gave me a loan here in Fort Lauderdale 2 years ago. It's a pretty easy process but I am not sure they would loan on a STR.
