Richard Obahor CEO Purple Premium Ltd with a dye-in-the-wool attitude to accomplishment, doggedness, resilience, determination and success considers himself to be modelled after a dedicated street sweeper who believes the best way to climb to the top is to broom at the rate of Michelangelo’s passion for painting, Beethoven’s interest in music and Shakespeare’s dexterity for poetry.
What climaxed to a household real estate brand in the UK today started about 10 years ago when the savvy, articulate and philosophical young man set out as a Buy-To-Let Landlord. Within two years, Richard had acquired a multi-million pound property portfolio owing to his outstanding and unique acquisition skills. He set up his first real estate company in 2008, offering property acquisition, property development, and property management services to high net worth clients.
The deviant, disruptive, and unconventional businessman has, over the years, not just preferred UK real estate services to his broad-spectrum customers, he has also integrated into the Nigerian property market where his company now develop quality luxury homes. The notable public speaker who is also known for his sartorial dressing, has interests in other promising and fascinating career adventures, such as his special publication for the delight of real estate’s enthusiasts called “Richard Obahor:Developer Extraordinaire”. He has garnered several skills and experience from reputable professional institutions as well as an MBA from the prestigious Plymouth University, UK. Like a brilliant student who knows where he is destined for, the only thing Richard would never regret in life is his obstinacy to listen to the heart of his mind while prioritizing career path-way.
A big Congratulations to him!
