The Back Story to My New Venture.

Our Journey: From Navigating the Unknown to Guiding You Home

The story of Beasr is rooted in a shared but personal journey -a journey filled with the excitement of new beginnings, but also the challenges of relocating to new places, both near and far.

Like many of you, my family and I have moved across the UK for work, living in a variety of regions, each with its own unique character and quirks. But our story doesn’t stop there. Our adventures also took us overseas, where we experienced the thrill and complexities of finding a home in another country, whether it was for a work assignment or a holiday retreat.

Over the years, we've relocated to several locations within the UK, and crossed the Atlantic to live in the US. We've also purchased holiday and retirement properties in the picturesque rural areas of Spain and France. With each move came a new set of challenges - legal complexities, financial considerations, lifestyle adjustments, community integration, healthcare decisions, schooling options for the kids, and the logistics of making a house feel like a home.

We quickly discovered that while estate agents could assist with the basics, the real work was left to us. We found ourselves navigating a maze of online resources, jumping from Google to TripAdvisor, diving into social media, and consulting countless forums to gather the information we needed. And that was all before we even made the decision to buy or rent!


Hotel based research

Once we had secured our new home, the real task began organising utilities, setting up broadband, finding reliable tradespeople, sourcing domestic fuel oil in rural areas, and arranging insurances. These were not just tasks; they were hurdles that added stress to what should have been an exciting time. It was through these experiences that I realized how overwhelming the process can be, especially when moving to a rural location or a completely different country.

That’s why I founded Beasr.

Our mission is to simplify the journey for others who find themselves in similar situations.

Beasr is designed not only to help you find the perfect property to buy or rent, but also to answer the myriad of questions that inevitably arise along the way. Whether it’s understanding the local community, figuring out healthcare options, or finding the best broadband provider in a remote area, we’re here to guide you through it all.

With the advent of AI, we’ve taken our platform a step further, offering up-to-date and accurate answers to your questions without the need for endless research. Our goal is to save you time, reduce anxiety, and connect you with the services you need - before and after your move. Beasr is more than just a property platform; it’s a community-driven resource that makes your transition as seamless and stress-free as possible.



We’ve been in your shoes, and we know what it takes to turn a house into a home, no matter where that may be. Let Beasr be your guide on this exciting journey, helping you navigate the unknown and find your place in the world.

Congratulations setting up your new business, Stephen! As someone that has also moved around, Australia, UAE, Portugal and several places in England we’ve had to rely on word of mouth, which doesn’t always provide a comprehensive or balanced view of local services. When do you launch and which areas will you cover?
