Holo, a UAE-based fintech platform focused on simplifying homebuying, has raised $22 million in a Series A funding round led by Saudi Arabia’s Impact46. Mubadala Investment Company, Rua Growth Fund, anb seed, and MoreThan Capital also joined the round, alongside returning investors Salica Oryx Fund and Dubai Future District Fund.
The company said the raise ranks among the GCC’s largest Series A rounds in 2025 and will support its expansion into Saudi Arabia as demand for home financing grows across the region.
According to industry data, the UAE’s residential property market is valued at $143 billion in 2025 and is expected to reach $217 billion by 2030, growing at a compound annual rate of 8.66%. Saudi Arabia’s residential property market, currently worth $203 billion, is forecast to expand to $310 billion by 2030 at an 8.77% CAGR. Growth in both markets is being driven by urban masterplans, housing initiatives and rising mortgage penetration.
Michael Hunter and Arran Summerhill, Holo’s co-founders, said the company’s profitability in the UAE provides the foundation to expand into Saudi Arabia, where homeownership and digital transformation are central to Vision 2030. The company plans to use the funding to build teams across both markets and invest in its platform to streamline access to lenders and improve the home financing process.
Holo’s platform aggregates mortgage products to give users visibility on financing options and enable digital processing. The firm says its expansion will align with government housing strategies while giving banks and investors access to a wider pool of homebuyers.
The $22 million raise underscores continued appetite for fintech and proptech ventures in the Gulf, where sovereign investors and private funds are backing platforms that support economic diversification and digital infrastructure growth.
