We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
OPEN DAY 24/10 Guide Price: £500,000 - £525,000 / Chain Free This well-presented three-bedroom semi-detached home sits on a generous plot in a popular residential pocket of St Mary Cray.
The rear garden is a real standout, while a driveway at the front takes care of off-street parking. Inside, the ground floor offers two separate reception rooms and a fitted kitchen.
A ground-floor WC and a useful store cupboard round off the downstairs layout.Upstairs there are three bedrooms — two comfortable doubles and a good-sized third — served by a family bathroom with a bath and separate shower.
The house has been looked after and is perfectly liveable as it stands, but there's also scope to put your own stamp on it.
With an EPC rating of C and Council Tax band D, the running costs are sensible for a home of this size.Location-wise, it's a strong one for commuters.
