What happens when your first real estate deal ends in disaster… and you lose everything?
That’s exactly where Patrick Grimes, CEO of Passive Investing Mastery, found himself after aggressively investing in pre-development residential projects leading into the 2009 crash.
But what followed wasn’t just a comeback—it was a total reinvention.
Today, Patrick controls a real estate and alternative investment portfolio worth over $600 million.
In this episode of Inspired To Invest, we unpack:
🔥 How losing everything became Patrick’s greatest teacher
📉 The painful 2009 foreclosure that nearly destroyed his financial future
🔁 How he transitioned from speculative development to cash-flowing, recession-resistant assets
🧠 Why smart investors are diversifying outside of real estate into asset classes like litigation finance, healthcare, and education
📚 The blueprint behind his “Passive Investing Mastery” series and free investor resources
👥 Why partnering with industry experts is the key to building true passive wealth
📊 The metrics Patrick uses to evaluate high-return, low-correlation investments
📈 How to build a secure, diversified portfolio without being an expert in everything If you’ve ever felt that traditional investing advice wasn’t designed for you—this episode will feel like a breath of fresh air. Patrick doesn’t hold back. He shares the tough lessons, the mindset shifts, and the untapped opportunities most people never hear about.
✅ Whether you're a burnt-out landlord, a high-income earner looking for tax-efficient strategies, or someone who's simply done with market volatility—this episode could change the way you invest forever.
