Why Choose Housr? A Student’s Perspective

Finding the perfect student accommodation can be a daunting task, but Housr is changing the game. This blog shares stories of students who have enjoyed the benefits of Housr, including how easy the app is to use, financial savings, and an enhanced living experience.

Sam’s Story: The Perfect House, Effortlessly

Usability

Sam, a second-year student at the University of Birmingham, dreaded the idea of house hunting. He remembered last year’s ordeal, juggling multiple tabs, visiting countless estate agents, and the endless back-and-forth with landlords. This year, he decided to give Housr a try.

With Housr, Sam found the process refreshingly simple. He opened the app and started swiping right on properties he liked. Within minutes, he had a list of potential homes. No need to load up 10 different tabs on his laptop or visit seven different estate agents. Everything he needed was in one place. He shared his liked houses with the people he wanted to live with, and they all agreed on which was best…Simple!

Sam says: "Housr made house hunting so much easier. I found my perfect house in just a few swipes, booked a viewing directly through the app, and had everything sorted within a week. It was hassle-free and saved me so much time!"

Tom’s Story: Saving Money with Housr

Financial Savings

Tom, a third-year student at the University of Manchester, was always conscious of his budget. Last year, managing bills with his housemates was a nightmare. They often ended up overpaying or missing payments, leading to arguments and stress. When he discovered Housr, he was hooked by the promise of one simple payment and better bill management.

Using Housr Bills, Tom and his housemates combined all their repayments into one convenient monthly payment. The app's automation feature ensured they never missed a bill. Moreover, the exclusive discounts available through Housr’s perks page helped Tom save on everyday items and big purchases.

Tom says: "Housr has been a game-changer for me. We now manage our bills effortlessly, and the exclusive discounts have saved me a lot of money. I can focus on my studies without worrying as much about finances."

Sarah’s Story: A Better Living Experience

Enhanced Living Experience

Sarah, a second-year student at the University of Leeds, wanted her first off-campus living experience to be smooth and enjoyable. She heard horror stories about maintenance issues and landlords who never responded. Determined to avoid such problems, Sarah opted for Housr.

Through Housr, Sarah found a house with friends. They could see each other's liked properties, making it easy to agree on a place. The app’s maintenance management feature allowed them to report issues directly to their landlord, who responded through the chat quickly.

Sarah says: "Using Housr has significantly improved my living experience. We found a great house quickly, and managing maintenance issues has been so easy. Our landlord is always just a message away. I couldn’t have asked for a better start to my shared housing university life."

Housr is revolutionising the student housing market by making it easier, more affordable, and more enjoyable to find and manage student accommodation. Sam, Tom, and Sarah's stories highlight the platform's key benefits: ease of use, financial savings, and an enhanced living experience. If you’re a student looking for your next home, Housr might just be the perfect solution for you.
