About MERKAO
Built on the belief that the best deals deserve a better platform.
Bridging Capital
and Opportunity.
MERKAO was built by a team with over 20 years of combined experience in international real estate, having worked across leading firms in Europe, South America, and Asia. Those years were spent building the relationships, market knowledge, and operational expertise that now power this platform.
We founded MERKAO on a simple observation: the most valuable real estate transactions happen off-market, through networks built on trust, discretion, and verified credentials. Yet these networks have traditionally been inaccessible to qualified participants outside established circles. We built MERKAO to change that.
Our team has sourced, structured, and closed transactions across multiple markets — from hotel acquisitions in Lisbon to hospitality investments in Bali. That experience allows us to curate opportunities with a level of diligence and market insight that only comes from years on the ground.
