Summary

Learning what it takes to be a successful real estate investor may seem like a lot and it may even seem like it could be a little boring.

Terrica Lynn Smith created a Monopoly-like game that not only teaches you to buy property but also teaches you how to build developments and ultimately get the keys to the city.

"Developers is a board game I created to teach children and adults how to create generational wealth through real estate investing," she says.

As you roll the die, the game takes you through real life situations, both good and not so good.

"With the liability card, it's taking money out of your pocket so you are paying and if you don't keep up with pay days on the board and get some good life cards, you will end up bankrupt."

Developers is a game for anyone ages 10-100 years old.

"This is something they aren't getting in school and now you have an opportunity to play a game with your child and also teach life lessons that will last generations."

"I relocated to Lafayette and went to real estate school and I worked my butt off."

Between Madeline Cove and the Developers Board Game, Terrica's life mission is in full swing.

If you are interested in purchasing Developers, you can order a board game at developersboardgame.com.
