About Amjad
We started with one tower and a stubborn idea
That a real estate firm should be judged on what its clients earn, not on what it manages to sell.
2009
Four people, one tower
Our story
Amjad began in 2009 with a single mixed-use tower in New Cairo and four people who had all quit the same brokerage on the same week. We'd spent years watching buyers sold whatever the firm needed to move that quarter, and we thought the whole model was upside down.
So we inverted it. We only list what we'd put our own money into, we publish the yield model behind every asset, and we stay on after handover to manage what we sold. It's slower. It costs us listings. It has also meant that most of our growth for sixteen years has come from clients buying a second, third and fourth time.
Today Amjad has delivered 124 assets across residential, commercial and mixed-use, with 2.4 billion EGP under management. The team is 48 people. The idea hasn't changed.
Mission
To make premium real estate investment legible — so a first-time buyer and an institutional allocator can both see exactly what they're buying, what it costs and what it will return.
Vision
To be the firm the region's investors call first, because the number we quote on day one is still the number on the day they exit.
