UAE based digital real estate investment platform Stake has raised $31 million in an oversubscribed Series B funding round led by Emirates NBD, one of the largest banking groups in the Middle East, North Africa and Türkiye region. The latest investment brings the company’s total capital raised to $58 million. The round also saw participation from Mubadala Investment Company’s MENA Venture Capital Fund, Middle East Venture Partners, Property Finder, STV NICE, Wa’ed Ventures, GFH Partners and Ellington Properties.
Strategic Expansion into KSA and the US
Founded in 2021 by Rami Tabbara, Manar Mahmassani and Ricardo Brizido, Stake operates a regulated platform that enables users to invest in fractional real estate assets and full property ownership across borders. The company identified Saudi Arabia as a core growth market after becoming the first investment platform regulated by the Capital Market Authority to open the Kingdom’s real estate market to international investors in late 2024. Since then, Stake has closed multiple real estate funds in Saudi Arabia, attracting thousands of international investors and channeling substantial capital into the local sector.
In October 2025, Stake expanded into the United States industrial real estate market, marking its first move outside the Middle East. This entry underscores the firm’s ambition to broaden its cross border investment offerings and appeal to global investors seeking exposure to resilient property sectors.
Product Innovation and Tokenisation
With the new funding, Stake plans to deepen its regulated property investment model, expand its cross border capabilities and enhance product innovation. The company recently launched StakeOne, a product designed to digitise access to full property ownership and after sales asset management for premium developments.
Stake is also advancing regulated real estate tokenisation in collaboration with Property Finder and has received in principle approval from the Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority in Dubai. This initiative seeks to increase liquidity and flexibility for investors by digitising ownership into tradeable units on regulated digital platforms.
Broader Growth Trajectory
Stake now serves more than two million users across 181 countries. The company’s platform allows individuals to participate in property markets that were previously accessible primarily to institutional investors, lowering traditional barriers to entry.
By combining regulated infrastructure, product innovation and geographic reach, Stake is positioning itself as a significant player in cross border real estate investing.
