Most property advisors start with numbers. Azaad Azmi starts with space: how a home feels, how light moves through a room, and how design shapes value.
From Kandy to California
Azaad's story begins in Sri Lanka, where he attended École Internationale in Kandy. He went on to study Interior Architecture and Design at California State University, Northridge.
That training shaped everything that followed. He worked as an interior design consultant and in design engineering roles in the United States before moving into property.
Founder of R&AA Properties
Today Azaad is the founder and CEO of R&AA Properties, a real estate company working across Dubai and Sri Lanka. His focus is luxury living and investment property, helping buyers find homes and assets that hold their value.
His design background gives clients an edge. He can walk into an unfinished apartment and see what it could become, and what that means for its price.
Beyond property: Maali Gems
Azaad also founded Maali Gems, a business built on Sri Lanka's centuries-old gem heritage. Gems and property share a lesson: real value comes from rarity, craftsmanship and the story behind an asset.
Why it matters for Sri Lankan buyers
Sri Lanka's property market is changing fast, with more apartments, more overseas buyers and higher design expectations. Azaad brings an international view from Dubai and the US, rooted in a Sri Lankan upbringing.
Whether you are buying your first apartment in Colombo or furnishing a holiday villa down south, his approach is simple: buy well, design well, and the value follows.
