Moroccan property technology startup Yakeey has raised $15 million in a Series A funding round led by Egypt’s Beltone Venture Capital, with participation from the International Finance Corporation, Enza Capital, CDG Invest and 212 Founders. The funding marks a major step for the young company and reflects growing confidence in technology-led solutions that can improve how real estate is bought, sold and financed in Morocco.
Founded in 2022 by Karim Beqqali, Yakeey is building a digital platform that brings together the full real estate transaction process in one place. Its goal is clear. Make property transactions faster, more transparent and easier for everyone involved. With this new capital, Yakeey is positioning itself as a key player in modernising a sector that has long been fragmented and slow to change.
At a time when access to housing, trust in transactions and market efficiency remain major challenges, Yakeey’s model offers a practical response. The company is not only scaling a business but also shaping how the real estate ecosystem can function better through technology.
Building a more efficient and trusted property market
Yakeey operates an end to end digital marketplace that covers property search, valuation, brokerage and financing within a single platform. By integrating these services, the company reduces the friction that often delays or complicates real estate deals. Buyers and sellers can move through the process with more clarity, while developers, brokers and financial institutions are connected through a shared digital system.
A key focus of the platform is data. By using data driven tools, Yakeey aims to improve pricing accuracy, transparency and trust across the market. This is especially important in real estate, where information gaps and manual processes have traditionally slowed transactions and increased risk.
Another central part of Yakeey’s model is its professional community known as YakeeyPRO. This network is made up of real estate advisors who support clients at every stage of the transaction. The company already works with more than 800 agents and plans to grow this number to 10,000 over time. Through this network, Yakeey combines technology with human expertise, ensuring that users receive continuous and tailored support rather than a purely digital experience.
By structuring the market through technology and professional standards, Yakeey is helping to create a stronger chain of trust between all participants. This approach shortens transaction timelines and improves execution, which can have a direct impact on market liquidity and investor confidence.
Expanding impact with strong regional and global backing
The entry of international and regional investors adds weight to Yakeey’s ambitions. IFC’s participation signals confidence in the company’s potential to support access to housing and financing, while Beltone Venture Capital’s leadership in the round aligns with its strategy to back technology platforms that address deep inefficiencies in large traditional sectors across Africa and the Middle East.
For Yakeey, the new funding will be used to scale its platform and expand its reach, allowing it to serve a wider range of buyers, sellers, developers and financial institutions. The company is also focused on facilitating better access to housing and financing, an issue that remains central to economic and social development in Morocco.
Beyond technology and transactions, Yakeey’s growth is expected to create qualified employment. The expansion of the YakeeyPRO network represents a significant opportunity for professional real estate agents, contributing to skills development and job creation within the sector.
This fundraising round also carries a broader message. It confirms Morocco’s ability to produce technology companies that meet international standards and attract serious global capital. As Yakeey scales, it stands as an example of how local innovation, when backed by strong execution and the right partners, can reshape entire industries.
With fresh capital, a clear mission and growing trust from investors, Yakeey is not only expanding a platform. It is helping to redefine how real estate works in Morocco and setting the foundation for a more transparent, efficient and inclusive property market.
