-- Kelli Capozolli, who dove into her first rehab just a couple of years ago and has kept going strong.
-- Jason Kolomick, who built a rental portfolio that allowed him to quit his day job, by focusing on a neighborhood and knowing when to pivot.Has it always been smooth sailing for these investors?
