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.

Location Spey Bay is a charming coastal settlement in Moray, north-east Scotland, sitting on the eastern shore of the River Spey where it meets the Moray Firth.
The village is approximately 9 miles north-east of Elgin, offering serene rural surroundings with easy access to local towns.
The area is distinguished by its varied coastline: Shingle beaches, river estuary, saltmarsh, wet woodland and vegetated shingle – part of the largest vegetated shingle complex in Scotland.
The River Spey estuary to the west and the open waters of the Moray Firth to the north provide impressive views, wildlife, and a strong sense of space.
Spey Bay is not just picturesque – it’s active and well-served for its size.
It is easily accessible to the Cathedral City of Elgin, approximately 30 minutes’ drive, where you will find all the facilities one would expect with modern-day living and situated on the A96 which gives a direct route to Inverness and Aberdeen.
