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
A spacious two bedroom first floor flat, with garden, in the popular Blackford area of Edinburgh.
The property – which benefits from electric heating, secondary glazing and a private garden to the rear – now requires some modernisation but has considerable potential.
The property is situated in a sought after area to the south of the city centre and within easy reach of the many amenities in Marchmont, Morningside and Newington.
The building is accessed via a secure entry-phone system into a well-maintained communal hallway shared with only one other property.
To the front is the bright and well-proportioned bay-windowed sitting room with fireplace and cornice work. Also to the front is the larger of the two double bedrooms.
Quietly positioned to the rear are the second bedroom, the bathroom and the dining room.
Off the dining room is the kitchen which comes with fridge/freezer, washing machine and cooker with electric hob, grill and oven.
No warranty is given for the cooker as the oven section is not working. Completing the accommodation is a useful box room off the hallway.
