In this return appearance on the Real Estate Educators Podcast, Kevin Amolsch welcomes back Jens Nielsen to discuss what happens after you've bought your first few properties.

They also discuss today's real estate market, why many investors are struggling to make deals work, and how successful entrepreneurs stay focused despite economic uncertainty.
