Key takeaways
You can invest directly in CMA-regulated Saudi funds via the Stake app.
Funds follow a clear timeline: listing, capital raise, operation, distributions, closure.
Dividends or profits are paid based on the fund type and performance.
Investing in Saudi Arabia’s real estate market is now easier—and more transparent—than ever. Through Stake, you can access professionally managed, CMA-regulated real estate funds directly from your app. Here’s a step-by-step look at how it works:
1. Fund is Listed on Stake
Every opportunity begins with a new fund being listed on the Stake app or website.
You’ll see:
- A clear description of the fund’s strategy and duration
- The minimum investment amount
- A countdown to the fund’s closing date
You can invest anytime during this window.
2. Fund Closes
Once the fundraising period ends and the target capital is raised:
- The fund is officially closed
- Capital is transferred securely to the fund manager
- You receive confirmation of your allocation
- A unit holder registry is generated for transparency
3. Fund Commences Operations
The fund manager begins deploying the capital into real estate assets, aligned with the fund’s mandate.
Depending on the fund type, this could include:
- Income-generating properties
- Development projects
- Renovation and leasing strategies
You can track fund progress through updates directly in the app.
4. Distributions Begin
Based on the fund’s income model, you’ll start receiving your share of profits:
- For income funds: periodic dividends are distributed (monthly or quarterly)
- For development funds: returns are paid at the end of the fund cycle, after asset liquidation
All distributions are credited to your Stake wallet.
5. Fund Matures and Capital is Returned
When the fund reaches its end date or strategic goals:
- Assets are sold
- Final profits and capital are returned to investors
- The fund is officially closed
You’ll receive a summary breakdown of your total returns at the end.
