Building the future of global real estate: Stake secures USD 31M in Series B funding

Written by Stake team | Feb 17, 2026 8:47:41 AM

At Stake, our mission has always been clear: to democratise real estate investment. We believe that geographic borders shouldn't limit your ability to build wealth, and that world-class real estate should be accessible to everyone, not just the institutional elite.

Today, we are thrilled to announce a massive leap forward in that journey. Stake has successfully raised $31 million in an oversubscribed Series B funding round.

This milestone brings our total funding to date to USD 58 million, reinforcing our position as the leading digital real estate investment platform in the region and a rising force in the global fintech landscape.

A powerhouse of partners

This funding round was led by Emirates NBD, a premier banking group in the MENAT region. Their leadership, alongside a distinguished group of regional and international investors, underscores the industry's confidence in our regulated, technology-first approach.

We are honored to welcome and continue our journey with:

  • Emirates NBD (Lead Investor)
  • Mubadala Investment Company (MENA Venture Capital Fund)
  • Middle East Venture Partners (MEVP)
  • Property Finder
  • STV NICE
  • Wa’ed Ventures
  • GFH Partners
  • Ellington Properties

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.

The road ahead

As Manar Mahmassani, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Stake, puts it: "We are committed to being a long-term partner to the market, helping channel capital into high-quality opportunities while supporting the ambition to broaden foreign investment to the masses."

Whether you are an investor in Riyadh, Dubai, London or the US, Stake is building the bridge to your next great investment. We are just getting started.
