Sometimes you can’t fix what’s broken — you’ve got to tear it down and build it right. 

In this episode of The Property Challenge Podcast, I open up about the tough decision to dismantle and rebuild my property management company from the ground up.

I break down what it looks like to lead with values, rebuild culture, and take back control when your business drifts off course.

You’ll Learn:

• Why “fixing it” wasn’t enough — and how to start fresh
• The 5 core values that changed everything: L.I.G.H.T.
• What happens when leadership gets real and hands-on

Welcome back for another episode of the Property Challenge Podcast with me, Terrica Lynn Smith! 🎙️

This week I’m opening up about something every investor faces but nobody really talks about —  REAL ESTATE BULLIES.

Here’s what you’ll take away:

• How to stay calm when someone tries to sabotage your presentation
• The mindset shift from small deals to legacy projects
• Why confidence and preparation disarm bullies
• How to protect your deals and your peace when the stakes are high

#PropertyChallengePodcast #RealEstateInvesting #TerricaLynnSmith #RealEstateBullies #WealthBuilding

In this episode of the Property Challenge podcast, I, Terrica Lynn Smith, dive deep into a topic that many investors grapple with: debt. I challenge the common belief, especially among my Christian listeners, that being in debt is inherently unbiblical. While I acknowledge the wisdom in being a lender rather than a borrower, I encourage you to reconsider your perspective on debt.

I start by referencing Proverbs 22:7, which states that "the borrower is a servant to the lender." I emphasize that when you rent, you are essentially paying someone else's mortgage and not building wealth for yourself. Many people express their desire to invest in real estate but are held back by the fear of debt. I explain the difference between good debt and bad debt, highlighting that good debt can be a powerful tool for wealth creation when managed wisely.

Throughout the episode, I share my personal journey in real estate, illustrating how I leveraged good debt to build a multimillion-dollar portfolio. I discuss the importance of being a good steward of your finances and the need to shift your mindset from fear to faith. I encourage listeners to recognize that not all debt is bad and that with the right approach, debt can lead to financial freedom.

I also touch on the significance of generational wealth and the impact of real estate investing on our lives and communities. By the end of the episode, I urge you to break free from the fear of debt and embrace the opportunities that come with being a real estate investor. Join our Protege community to connect with like-minded individuals and take actionable steps toward your financial goals.

Remember, you are not defined by your debt; you have the power to change your narrative and become a first-generation millionaire. Let's continue this journey together, and I look forward to seeing you next week!
