Stake

Invest in Real Estate in Dubai and Saudi Arabia

Stake is a fractional real estate investment platform with 2M+ users from 211 countries. Raised $31M Series B in February 2026 led by Emirates NBD with Mubadala and STV. Launched full property ownership (StakeOne) and expanded into US industrial real estate.

FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK

Fractional real estate in Dubai sounds like a gimmick until you see the numbers: 2 million+ users across 211 nationalities. Stake has turned Dubai property into a globally accessible asset class, democratizing a market that traditionally required significant capital and local knowledge. The $58 million raised signals investors see this as more than novelty.

The genius is alignment with Dubai's investor-driven real estate market. Unlike fractional platforms elsewhere that compete with REITs, Stake operates where individual property ownership is culturally desirable and rental yields are attractive. The risk is liquidity — fractional shares are only valuable if holders can exit. If secondary trading remains thin, Stake faces the same problem as most alternative investment platforms: easy to buy in, hard to get out.
