Kamran Mahmood
Four decades in residential property, built quietly out of a banking career and a 1977 auction in Wandsworth. Founder of MiNC Property, PRS Invest, Gridizen, and The Ethical Crowd.
A few weeks after Kamran Mahmood was born in Lahore in late October 1968, his family flew to London — his father had just been posted to the Pakistani Embassy. The family of seven shared two rooms in Southfields, then drifted through Wimbledon. By 1972 they owned a house in Wimbledon Park, though they let the upper floor to make the numbers work.
That household understanding of property — as shelter, as income, as a quiet way out of a tight spot — has stayed with him for the better part of fifty years. It became MiNC Property. It became Dubai, Johannesburg, Hong Kong. It became, eventually, an attempt to redesign the rental market entirely.
The personal, the historical, and the working now.
About Kamran
From a 1968 Lahore birth and a Southfields houseshare to Holy Trinity, Queen Mary, and a quiet rise through City banking — plus the cricket, Liverpool FC and Wimbledon Common that runs alongside.
