Stake, the Real Estate Investment Platform, Reports Series A Round Led by Middle East Venture Partners

Stake, the digital platform for real estate investment, announced that they have raised $14 million in a Series A round reportedly led by MEVP (Middle East Venture Partners), along with Aramco’s Wa’ed Ventures, which is said to be one of Saudi Arabia’s largest VC’s, Mubadala Investment Company, Abu Dhabi’s sovereign wealth fund, and Republic, a US-based private investing platform.

Stake has been gaining momentum in the Dubai real estate space “over the past 3 years, amassing over 500,000 users, with its eyes now set on Saudi Arabia.”

Stake will be using the funds secured “to propel the business as they enter the Kingdom this year, becoming the first platform to offer individuals outside of the Kingdom the opportunity to invest into Saudi real estate opportunities.”

The Kingdom is a vital market for “both regional and international investors and presents vast growth opportunities for real estate fintech companies such as Stake.”

The funds will also be channeled towards expanding its “investor pool, bringing new investment opportunities on the platform and scaling a world-class team to build out its globally renowned, market leading product.”

Co-Founder & Co-CEO of Stake, Rami Tabbara, noted how the new funding will enable Stake to continue scaling its presence in the UAE, while launching in Saudi Arabia:

“We are grateful to have a top-tier group of investors backing this funding round and placing significant trust in Stake and the future we are building. Having them onboard fortifies our commitment to expanding our product offerings and providing our investors with prime investment opportunities. We believe that the real estate investment process needs to be fully digitised and we have only started scratching the surface in our vision of making real estate accessible, transparent, borderless, and liquid.”

Co-Founder & Co-CEO of Stake, Manar, said:

“KSA is forecast to grow by 6% in 2025, making it one of the fastest growing G20 economies in the world. We want to give both our local and international users the opportunity to invest early and participate in that growth. This raise marks a significant moment in our journey as we expand into this dynamic new market and partner with amazing new shareholders, including some of the strongest institutional and sovereign investors in the region, to advance our mission of empowering everyone to own and build wealth through real estate.”

Walid Mansour of MEVP said:

“We’re thrilled to be backing Stake in their Series A round. What they have achieved in the past 3 years is nothing short of incredible. Their approach to real estate investment is truly innovative, and we believe that their talented team, combined with our strategic funding, will propel them to greater success in the region.”

Since its launch in 2021, Stake has redefined “the Dubai real estate market, allowing global investors to engage in fractional ownership with an entry point as low as AED 500.”

With over 200 properties worth AED355 million “sold via its app and over 50% of their investors coming from outside of the UAE, the company is leading a wave of transformation within MENA’s financial and real estate landscape.”

In May 2024, Stake surpassed “100,000 transactions on the platform.”
