What if investing in real estate could be simple, accessible, and rewarding from day one? What if you could own a share of a property in global hotspots like Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Riyadh, or even across the US, starting with just a few clicks and a couple of hundred dirhams?
That future is no longer a “what if”; it’s happening right now, and Property Finder is helping power it.
In October 2025, Property Finder announced a strategic investment in Stake, the region’s leading digital real estate investment platform. The move marks a step forward in building a smarter, easier, and more inclusive property ecosystem across the Middle East.
Innovation Rooted in Opportunity
Stake has been making waves for all the right reasons. It’s built on a simple but game-changing idea: property investment should be within reach for anyone looking to grow their wealth, not only established investors.
Through fractional ownership or private real estate funds, you could start investing with as little as AED 500, opening doors that were once closed to many. This isn’t just about a technological or financial breakthrough; it’s about trust, transparency, and empowerment – values that Property Finder has championed since its inception.
“We’ve seen first-hand how Stake has grown from a promising start-up to a key leader in the region’s tech ecosystem. As a company that shares our values of trust, transparency, and innovation, we’re proud to support their continued growth through this investment,” said Michael Lahyani, Founder and CEO of Property Finder.
From Aspiration to Ownership
Property ownership has long represented stability, aspiration, and security. Now, innovative investment solutions are opening doors for more people to experience it firsthand.
The perception of real estate is also shifting. A younger generation of investors is entering the market, more digitally aware and focused on flexibility than previous generations. They’re seeking new opportunities beyond their home markets, and clearer ways to grow and manage their wealth.
Stake is tapping into this shift in mindset. By making property investment more accessible and easier to participate in. It’s turning real estate from a distant goal into a tangible opportunity for a new generation of investors across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and beyond.
For Property Finder, this investment reflects a shared commitment to innovation and progress. It’s about supporting those who are reshaping the way people live, search, and invest in property.
As Rami Tabbara, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Stake, put it, “We are thrilled to welcome Property Finder as a shareholder and investor. Having the region’s leading property platform believe in our mission and invest in our growth is a huge endorsement of what we’re building. Property Finder has always championed innovation and consumer empowerment in real estate, and this partnership creates a powerful alignment to accelerate the evolution of the ecosystem for investors, sellers and homeowners alike.”
Building an Ecosystem, Not Just a Platform
Innovation doesn’t happen in isolation. Through its investment in Stake, Property Finder is fostering connection and collaboration with those transforming the real estate experience.
Property Finder has already redefined the way people search for homes through verified listings and transparent data. Now, it’s helping to shape how people access and invest in property, by supporting forward-thinking tech pioneers and using innovation to make the journey from dream to door smarter and simpler.
Looking Ahead
Property Finder’s mission has always been to help people make confident property decisions. The investment in Stake represents another step toward a more accessible and connected property market, where innovation empowers more people to participate in property ownership and supports Property Finder’s mission of changing living for good in the region.
