Ross Nichols, Co-founder said, “We’re thrilled to have the support of such incredible investors as we expand our vision. With Eos Ventures’ expertise in financial technology, we’re well-positioned to provide complex services delivered in a straightforward way, helping people throughout their lives,".

With support from Eos Ventures, the new funding will help Just Move In grow beyond home moves and start offering financial services. This will make it easier for people to get credit and insurance.

The company says that while comparison websites give options, they can be confusing and take too much time. Just Move In wants to simplify this by providing one easy platform to manage services like utilities and insurance, so users don’t have to enter the same information on different websites.

Just Move In works with major property companies like Openrent, the largest letting agency in the UK, and Hamptons. They’ve also gained new clients like Alto (owned by Houseful, previously known as Zoopla Property Group) and Anyvan.

James Tootell, Partner at Eos Ventures, said: “Just Move In’s innovative approach to combining home services with financial products represents the future of consumer-focused FinTech. Their remarkable growth, coupled with the ability to consistently broaden their service offerings while maintaining industry-leading customer satisfaction showcases the team’s exceptional strategic vision and operational excellence. We’re thrilled to support Just Move In as they expand their services and continue to support customers navigate key life events.”

Building on their success in the UK, Just Move In aims to become Europe’s first unicorn (a company valued at over $1 billion) in the home move and financial services sector.

Nichols said, “We’ve always believed in simplifying life’s most stressful moments, and this funding round is a testament to the impact we’ve made, Our goal is to be the partner people turn to for life’s biggest financial decisions, from their first move to their retirement home.”
