Why this matters for our investors
This capital injection isn't just about growth; it’s about scale, innovation and access. Here is how we are putting this investment to work for you:
1. Deepening our roots in Saudi Arabia
Saudi Arabia is our most strategic growth market. Since becoming the first CMA-regulated platform to open the Kingdom's property market to global investors in late 2024, the response has been incredible.
- 3 Real Estate Funds successfully closed in KSA.
- SAR 416 Million channelled into the local sector.
- 6,930+ International Investors already participating in the Saudi success story.
2. Global diversification
In October 2025, we officially expanded into the U.S. industrial real estate market. Why? Because it is one of the most resilient asset classes in the world. This funding allows us to scale our cross-border model, giving you seamless access to income-generating assets in stable, high-growth global markets.
3. Digitising the entire lifecycle
We aren't just a marketplace; we are the infrastructure.
- StakeOne: We recently launched StakeOne to digitise full property ownership and after-sales management for premium Dubai assets.
- Tokenisation & Liquidity: In collaboration with Property Finder and under In-Principle Approval from VARA, we are advancing regulated tokenisation. This will bring unprecedented liquidity and flexibility to real estate—allowing you to trade fractional exposure like never before.
By the numbers: Our momentum
Our growth over the last three years reflects the trust you have placed in us:
- 130%+ GMV CAGR.
- 100%+ Revenue CAGR.
- 2 Million+ Users on the platform.
- 211 Nationalities represented across 181 countries.
