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
You might think you know what to expect from a three-bedroom semi.
But step inside 3 Belmont Close, tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac in Burscough, and there's quite a bit more to this home than first meets the eye.
Built in the 1970s, this is a home that's been thoughtfully updated by its current owners, creating bright, calm interiors and a wonderfully sociable ground floor.
In fact, it was the unexpected space at the back of the house that sold it to them in the first place. A bit of a tardis, as they describe it, and it's easy to understand why.
The open-plan kitchen and dining area is where everyday life happens. There's plenty of space to cook, entertain and have friends round, with a breakfast bar made for those end-of-day catch-ups.
One cooking, the other perched with a drink, putting the world to rights. And when the weekend rolls around, there's room for everyone to gather.
There's also a separate, generously sized living room, somewhere to switch off after work, settle in for a film or simply enjoy a little peace and quiet.
Having that extra living space is a real bonus, giving you the best of both worlds when it comes to relaxing and entertaining. And then there's the garden.
A lovely sunny space, full of colour when the flowers are blooming, with two separate patios to enjoy.
One for dining when you fancy somewhere a little cooler, the other a proper suntrap when the weather's playing nicely.
Think summer barbecues, friends round for drinks or simply making the most of your own outdoor space. Now, the garage deserves a mention because it's quite something.
With room for two cars parked in tandem, plus a separate adjoining carport, you've got an impressive amount of covered space.
Ideal for cars, bikes, hobbies or all the things you don't particularly want cluttering up the house.
And if you don't need quite so much garaging, there's an opportunity to think a little differently about how you might use it.
A home office, garden room or outdoor entertaining space could be worth exploring, subject to any necessary permissions.
Upstairs, three bedrooms lead off a bright, open landing, continuing the calm, neutral feel found throughout the house.
Whether you need all three as bedrooms or fancy using one as a home office, dressing room or guest room, there's flexibility to make the space work for you. And the location?
Well, Burscough has plenty going for it. Belmont Close gives you that quieter cul-de-sac setting, but with cafés, restaurants, shops and everyday conveniences close by.
There's Booths and Tesco for the weekly shop, independent places for coffee and brunch, and some lovely spots to head out for dinner without having to travel far.
Burscough Wharf is a great place to spend a Saturday morning, grabbing coffee at Hugo's before heading off for a walk along the canal.
Eden is a lovely option for dinner, and Janie's Tea Room is another local favourite. You've also got countryside walks nearby, ideal if you've got a dog or simply enjoy getting outdoors.
For commuting and getting about, Burscough Bridge railway station offers connections towards Southport and Manchester, while Burscough Junction serves Ormskirk and Preston, with onward connections towards Liverpool.
There's a lovely sense of community on Belmont Close too, with established neighbours and a friendly atmosphere that's clearly part of the appeal of the Close.
With more space than you'd expect, a garden made for sunny afternoons and so much of Burscough on your doorstep, there's a lot to like about life at Belmont Close. Come and have a look.
