On this episode of Next Level CRE, Matt Faircloth interviews Patrick Grimes, founder of Passive Investing Mastery. Patrick shares his journey from a robotics engineer to a seasoned investor, detailing early missteps in pre-development deals during the 2008 crash and how he rebuilt by focusing on recession-resilient markets. He explains why he pivoted from single-family rentals to large-scale multifamily and ultimately to alternative, non-correlated investments like litigation finance. Patrick dives deep into how his firm funds late-stage mass tort legal cases—such as Camp Lejeune and LA Juvenile Detention settlements—for outsized, socially impactful returns.
