While 2020 has seemed like a continuous uphill battle, one real estate entrepreneur has turned the challenges of the year into a positive, using this time to evaluate how his company looks for new business opportunities. Even with a historically creative approach to finding new investments, Patrick Carroll has adapted, once again, as the economy fights the stronghold of the pandemic.
Through these creative efforts, CARROLL – Patrick’s namesake company – is set to close on two new acquisitions in Atlanta, Ga., home of the company’s global headquarters. These large multifamily properties are a testament to how well CARROLL has navigated the downturns of the pandemic. At the root of these acquisitions is Patrick’s proactive nature of identifying opportunities before they go to market – positioning CARROLL as a lifeline for liquidity-strapped investors .Whether an office building, shopping center or housing complex, his prospects are endless. In true entrepreneurial fashion, Carroll quite literally creates his own opportunities. Along with the acquisitions, Carroll and company have been actively hiring new talent, prioritizing CARROLL’s growth and doing their part to reinvigorate the workforce.
And in addition to his companies’ efforts to stimulate the economy, as a community advocate, Carroll has paralleled his success during the pandemic with an increased focus on
his charitable contributions. With a focus on education, Carroll’s efforts during the pandemic have reaffirmed his commitment to student scholarships, both among his properties and in their surrounding communities. “Often times, when people are given good opportunities for education early on, they do well later on in life,” Carroll says. “It sets a precedent.” As uncertainty lingers in the midst of the pandemic, Carroll and his companies aim to remain nimble and adaptive to the ever-evolving climate of today’s business environment.
