    Overview

    This video with Rami, Co-CEO of Stake, reveals what happens behind the scenes before a property appears on the platform. Instead of focusing on a single listing, he explains the full investment lifecycle: from how Stake acquires properties to how it manages them and pays investors.

    It starts with the acquisition process. Stake targets prime neighborhoods in Dubai, working only with trusted developers and buildings that show strong rental potential and capital appreciation. Every property is evaluated against strict criteria, including price trends, rental income projections, and overall return potential using their in-house financial model.

    Next is the transfer of ownership. Once a property is fully funded, Stake sets up a special purpose vehicle (SPV) for each investment to legally protect and separate investor assets. The process includes investor compliance checks, opening dedicated bank accounts and officially transferring the property title.

    Then, the asset management phase begins. Stake partners with expert property managers to onboard, furnish, and lease the unit. These partners handle tenants, contracts, maintenance, and rent collection to keep the property in top shape and income flowing.

    Finally, investors receive monthly rent payouts directly into their Stake wallets. Property values are updated every six months, reflecting capital appreciation.
