Property Finder secures $170M from Mubadala and BECO Capital, reinforcing investor confidence in MENA’s fast-growing PropTech market.
Property Finder has raised $170 million in a funding round led by Abu Dhabi sovereign wealth fund Mubadala alongside another UAE sovereign investor, underlining continued institutional appetite for the Middle East’s property technology sector. BECO Capital also participated, committing $20 million through its Growth Fund I.

Under the transaction, Mubadala and the second sovereign investor are each investing $75 million, with BECO contributing the remaining capital. The Dubai-based company said the funds will be used to strengthen its platform across the region, focusing on improving search functionality, simplifying the property discovery process, and boosting productivity for real estate agents.
Property Finder operates one of the region’s largest online real estate marketplaces, serving buyers, renters, and brokers across the UAE and several other MENA markets. The company has benefited from sustained demand for digital property services as real estate activity in the Gulf continues to attract both regional and international capital.
The latest raise follows a high-profile transaction in September, when Property Finder sold a minority stake for $525 million to global private equity firms Permira and Blackstone. That deal positioned the company among the most valuable technology platforms in the region and marked a milestone for MENA’s late-stage startup ecosystem.
BECO Capital’s participation highlights its growing focus on later-stage technology investments, reflecting confidence in companies that have reached scale and demonstrated durable business models. The firm has increasingly targeted mature platforms with clear paths to operational efficiency and long-term growth.
The investment comes as global PropTech funding remains subdued amid higher interest rates and cautious venture capital markets. In contrast, the Middle East continues to attract large-ticket investments, supported by active sovereign wealth funds and a strong pipeline of digital transformation initiatives across real estate and financial services.
Property Finder said the funding will support long-term platform development rather than aggressive geographic expansion, as it looks to deepen engagement with users and agents in its existing markets. The company did not disclose its latest valuation.
Why Property Finder Funding Matters to MENA
For investors, the deal reinforces the role of Gulf sovereign wealth funds as anchor backers of the region’s scale-stage tech champions, even as global venture markets cool. For startups, Property Finder’s raise signals that capital remains available for platforms that have proven market leadership, revenue visibility, and operational depth. More broadly, the transaction highlights how MENA’s PropTech sector is maturing—shifting from early experimentation to institutional-scale businesses shaping how property markets operate across the region.
