We're building the home of student living.
Each year increasing demand for student accommodation wreaks havoc in the student lettings market. Long-standing industry problems are unresolved for agents, universities and students alike, and as a result, student housing is inefficient to find and view, overpriced to lease, and above all, often a stressful, complicated experience for students.
Enter Housr. We’re on a mission to change the face of student rental forever.
We want to make finding your next home as easy as ordering an Uber. We don’t just simplify the way students find and manage their houseshare, but we bring everything off-campus living - from perks and events to all-in-one bills packages - under one roof.
Why join Housr?
Building a startup is hard work. We view growth at Housr as a marathon, rather than a sprint and we’re working to create an environment where people can learn, challenge themselves, and do some of the best work of their careers. As we actively work towards our goal, the values below guide us in our day-to-day work.
Housr values
Think customer-first
Customer needs are at the core of our decision-making process. Without them, where would we be? We go above and beyond to exceed their expectations at every opportunity.
High ambition, high autonomy
We champion a culture of empowerment at all levels, where every team member is encouraged to take ownership, make bold decisions, and drive meaningful change.
Innovate at speed
Changing the face of student rental is no small task. To meet our audacious goal, we foster a culture of rapid experimentation, and continuous learning.
Stay resilient
The scale of our goals will mean we sometimes face setbacks, or fail. We take these hurdles as an opportunity to learn from our mistakes and level up.

Where did it all begin? In student halls at the University of Manchester…
Housr emerged from a challenge that I (like every other student) faced during first year – the abrupt transition from the sheltered environment of uni halls to the unknown terrain of the private rental market.
Housr is rapidly emerging as one of the most disruptive forces in the industry, building a vibrant community that relies on the app for all their housing, bill management, discount, and student event needs.
As Housr’s CEO, I’m dedicated to propelling Housr to the forefront of an otherwise outdated market.
Frustrated with the laborious nature of student housing back when I was a Fresher at University, I couldn’t believe there wasn’t a mobile app to help students through this process. After discussing the issue with Harry over a beer, Housr was born.
As a History graduate, I quickly upskilled as a Software Engineer and spent some time in industry before becoming Housr’s CTO. Housr is my first venture, and what a learning curve it’s been so far! I’m thoroughly enjoying every second, and I’m incredibly excited about our rapidly expanding future.
