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.

£30,400 per year Located in the historic coastal town of Banff, this substantial four-bedroom townhouse benefits from strong year-round tourism demand generated by Banff Marina, Duff House, nearby beaches, the Moray Firth coastline and the North East 250 tourist route.
The property also benefits from local schools, healthcare facilities, retail amenities and major employers across Aberdeenshire, making it suitable for both long-term rental and high-performing holiday accommodation.
Adding further appeal, part of the building was previously operated as a successful hairdressing salon, generating approximately £1,500 per month through chair rentals.
While the property is now classified as residential, it offers buyers an exciting opportunity to explore running a home-based business or reinstating commercial use (subject to obtaining any necessary consents and approvals).
This flexibility creates the potential to combine residential accommodation with an income-generating business from the same premises.
