Congratulations Sir Paul Altman
Real Estate News
The award of Knight Bachelor to realtor Paul Altman in the New Year’s Honour’s List was richly deserved for a successful businessman, who has made a huge contribution across many sectors of Barbados life. Now Sir Paul, he has been rewarded for a lifetime devoted to building a major real estate business, and supporting a host of charitable and good causes. It would be all too easy to credit his 30 years work within the real estate sector as his CV, but there’s much more to this visionary realtor with a key eye for opportunity. Many people will be aware of his role in virtually all the major developments on the island over the past 20 years, and of course, his vision and drive in establishing Lime Grove. It may be the pinnacle of his success in the industry, but the status that Altman Real Estate holds locally and internationally is just as impressive. Sir Paul can also look back with considerable pride at his work in various other sectors that are just as praiseworthy. He has always given generously of his time and resources to make Barbados a better place for everyone. He has supported with a
passion several projects close to his heart. His work in restoring the Jewish Synagogue and setting up the Jewish Museum has been incredible. He has made a huge contribution over many years to schemes and projects that protect the island’s heritage. Much of this was done through his involvement with the Barbados National Trust, and his work at the Synagogue in downtown Bridgetown. An important part of our history has now been restored, recorded and protected forever. A man with exceptional interpersonal skills, he has also promoted and supported good causes that help make young people become better citizens. He has been an enthusiastic stalwart of the Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme, and he is currently Chairman of the Campus Council at the Cave Hill Campus of the University of the West Indies. Not only has he given 100% commitment to his involvement, but he has shown great passion and enthusiasm in trying to better the lives of the next generation of young people. They say behind every great man is a woman, and Sir Paul has been fortunate to have three. A man of strong family principles, he has enjoyed the love and support of his wife Rachelle and his daughters Rina and Abigail on this journey, and they have every right to share in his success. Congratulations Sir Paul Altman.
