They are vanilla/cream in color and stand about 18 inch high.They heat up and you can touch them and they are very safe/tenant friendly!

@Andrew Freed For paints, sticking to neutral colors like beige, cream and gray would be best.

This brown paint was applied over a cream color paint with a gloss finish, and the brown paint does not adhere well to the cream. 

And Island Experiences like Trap to Table, hand-cranked Ice Cream Socials, Expert Talks, Baking with the Innkeeper, Sunrise Breakfast Hikes, Cribbage tournaments, and more.  

If I do get multiple HELOCs do I run the risk of having issues getting loans because of DTI or something else.Just making sure I am not leading myself into a trap trying to get some more cheese.

STRs that are not the absolute peak performers are already having issues with vacancy, and AirBnB recently changed their platform so that only the absolute cream of the crop units (five star resort-level luxury units with thousands of perfect guest ratings) are getting promoted.In a nutshell, STRs are a lot more work, require a lot more expertise, and are a lot less reliable/secure than traditional long term rentals (all other things being equal).Plus, house hacking a long term rental will give you invaluable experience in how to analyze, acquire, and a manage a property that you can then apply to doing a STR in the future (if you decide you want to go that route).Start with the strategy that is the easiest, simplest, and most likely to succeed (house hacking), and then gradually build up to more advanced strategies (like STRs, BRRR's, etc.) as you gain experience.Good luck out there!

80% of wholesalers go out of business leaving the top 20% cream of the crop?

However 20 years from now I’ll still be glad I didn’t jump out of a airplane without a parachute, go swimming in a pool of piranhas, or eat liver flavored ice cream

If 40 year old me could sit down and have a conversation with 18 year old me the best advice I could offer would be to take significant action as early as possible.I would read three books in order, Who Moved My Cheese by Spencer Johnson, Make your Bed by Admiral William McRaven and Set For Life by Scott Trench. 

When you go and sell it later down the road (not as a primary), you are going to get absolutely creamed on taxes. yes, you can still 1031 and defer taxes, but it's just a deferral.
