Everyone talks about when to sell—but few talk about how to do it right. In this episode, I pick up where we left off last time—diving deeper into effective exits. We look at unlocking highest use value (selling to end-users or condo conversions), why it’s sometimes smarter to sell before big capital expenditures hit, and how to time your exit to preserve returns and energy. Whether you’re holding a triplex, a tired commercial space, or a building with failing guts—this episode will help you get out with clarity.

Why do smart investors keep throwing money at bad deals? In this episode, Terrie breaks down how loss aversion—driven by fear, ego, and sunk costs—pushes people to cling to failing projects in condos, renos, and small developments. We look at why investors double down instead of cutting losses, how this gambler-like mindset destroys portfolios, and what seasoned operators do differently to protect their capital.

A short, sharp reality check for anyone stuck in a deal that’s going sideways.

When’s the right time to sell a property?

It’s one of the most common—and important—questions real estate investors face. In this episode, I break down how to make smart, strategic exit decisions.

We’ll cover how to look at equity growth, market cycles, asset types, cash flow and opportunity cost. We'll map this against your own portfolio goals to decide if it’s time to sell—or hold.

If you’ve ever wondered, “Should I sell now or wait?”, this episode is for you.

Thinking of splitting your next real estate deal 50/50? Think again.

In this episode, I explain why equal partnerships often lead to unequal work, frustration, and broken deals. The 50/50 model sounds fair, but unless both partners bring equal experience, time, and skills, it usually fails. I break down better ways to structure partnerships—models that let you scale, protect your time, and get paid for the value you actually bring. If you're serious about building a portfolio and not just playing investor, tune in!

Most real estate investors hear about crypto in terms of Bitcoin, tax shelters, or risky speculation. But is that the whole story? In this episode, Terrie talks with crypto investor Travis Pich about blockchain as financial infrastructure — from tokenized bonds to digital real estate titles. If you’ve wondered how crypto might actually intersect with property markets and long-term investing, this conversation will help you separate the hype from the fundamentals.

When people ask me what it’s like to be a woman in real estate or entrepreneurship, they usually expect me to talk about sexism.

But that’s not really the story.

The truth is that success in business and investing has a lot more to do with personality traits than gender. Some traits simply make the path easier.

Learn how to:

1. Leverage your feminine strengths: communication, empathy, collaboration as business superpowers
2. Train confidence and assertiveness like a muscle, no matter your starting point
3. Redefine “balance” as your phase of life changes
4. Use low expectations to your advantage and surprise everyone, including yourself

If you’ve ever wondered how personality, pressure, and parenting collide with profit, this episode is your reality check, and your permission slip to play the game on your own terms.

Think housing is your biggest expense? Not even close. For Canadians and Quebeccers, the real threat to your money is tax. In this episode, Terrie Schauer breaks down how Canadian and Quebec tax laws quietly drain your income before you even get to see it in your bank account—and what savvy investors do to fight back. If your principle source of income comes from employment or if you're investing in Montreal real estate and looking to grow wealth in Quebec, this episode is your wake-up call.

Learn how to:

1. Reduce your tax burden legally
2. Use corporations, real estate, and side hustles to your advantage
3. Turn your biggest expense into your biggest opportunity

If you want to build wealth in Quebec, understanding the tax code isn’t optional—it’s as essential as acquiring assets.
