Just Move In, a Bournemouth-based provider of home setup services, has raised €7.6 million in a Series A funding round. The investment aims to enhance how individuals manage home moves and access financial services.
Eos Ventures led the round, with contributions from Wayra (Telefonica’s innovation arm), Second Century Ventures, and The FSE Group through the South West Investment Fund. Notable angel investors, including Octopus Group founders Simon Rogerson and Chris Hulatt, also participated.
Company Vision and Growth
Founded in 2015 by Tom Old and Ross Nichols, Just Move In offers a streamlined platform for managing essential services such as home insurance and broadband during home moves. The company has expanded significantly since its last funding round in 2022 and is projected to process over 400,000 home moves in 2025.
Ross Nichols, Co-founder of Just Move In, stated, “With Eos Ventures’ expertise in financial technology, we are positioned to simplify complex services, supporting individuals throughout key life events.”
Strategic Expansion into Financial Services
The company plans to extend beyond home moves by integrating embedded financial services. This development aims to simplify processes like securing credit and accessing various insurance products. According to Just Move In, while comparison sites offer multiple options, they often lead to a fragmented and time-consuming user experience. The company’s platform seeks to provide a single interface for managing utilities, insurance, and other essential services.
Industry Partnerships and Future Outlook
Just Move In collaborates with major property firms, including Openrent, Hamptons, Alto (a Houseful brand, formerly Zoopla Property Group), and Anyvan.
James Tootell, Partner at Eos Ventures, commented, “Just Move In’s approach to integrating home services with financial products represents a key innovation in consumer-focused fintech. Their consistent growth and ability to expand their offerings while maintaining high customer satisfaction highlight strong strategic execution.”
With its expanding operations, the company aims to become Europe’s leading platform in the home move and financial services sector.
Ross Nichols added, “Our mission is to simplify life’s major financial decisions, from a first home move to retirement. This funding underscores our impact and future potential.”
