Propertynews and Fibrus Broadband partner to help movers check broadband speeds in their new home

Published 09 Dec 2025

We're delighted to partner with Fibrus Broadband, one of the region’s leading Full Fibre broadband providers, to help home movers across Northern Ireland access reliable, high-speed internet more easily.

With more than 150,000 people visiting our platforms every day to find their next home, we play a vital role in helping consumers make informed decisions when moving. Broadband details are increasingly ranked as one of the most important features people consider when searching for a property, reflecting the growing demand for reliable digital connectivity.

Through this partnership, Fibrus will feature on the broadband speed checker of Propertynews and PropertyPal residential sales and rental property listings, giving users clear and accurate information about broadband availability and speeds directly alongside key property details. The collaboration will also include joint digital content and social media activity to help educate home movers about Fibrus’ package options and availability across Northern Ireland.

Emma McNally, Head of Strategic Partnerships at PropertyPal Group, commented:
“We’re delighted to be partnering with Fibrus, a company that shares our commitment to driving digital progress and improving everyday life across Northern Ireland. Across our platforms, we’re always looking for new ways to deliver the best possible experience for users as they search for their next home. 

“Reliable broadband is now a basic expectation for households and a key consideration for anyone moving home. With more people working and connecting online, a fast and dependable connection has become a primary consideration. Together, with Fibrus we're making it easier for people to understand broadband speed and availability across Northern Ireland and make smarter choices when finding their next home.”

Colin Hutchinson, Group Managing Director and Chief Financial Officer at Fibrus, added:
“At Fibrus, we’re passionate about connecting communities and delivering better broadband for everyone. Partnering with PropertyPal and Propertynews allows us to reach Northern Ireland homeowners at a key moment in their lives, making sure they’re fully informed about their connectivity options when they’re finding their next home. Together, we’re helping families and businesses across Northern Ireland stay online, informed and connected.”

Fibrus has already brought its Full Fibre network to over 325,000 connectable homes and businesses across Northern Ireland, including many of the most rural communities through Project Stratum. The company successfully delivered the £200 million project, the largest telecoms infrastructure investment ever seen in Northern Ireland.
