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
Quiet, modern, and ready to go. This one ticks every box for a first-time buyer.
Tucked away in Alvechurch, this first floor apartment at Rectory Court offers a peaceful spot with a genuinely spacious one-bed layout.
The development is only three years old, so everything feels fresh, and there's an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner with plenty of room to actually live in, not just look at.
Add in a Juliet balcony, a rare boarded loft, and your own allocated parking with an EV charger, and you've got a home that's ready the moment you pick up the keys.
We asked them what made them buy it... "I grew up in this area, so I know it well. It's quiet, but you're still close to everything you need.
The transport links are great too, so it just made sense to stay local." What about the house itself? "Having the space for a proper home office was the main thing that sold it for me.
Working from home is so much easier when you've actually got somewhere to do it. And I love how open the living space feels. It just works." Our agents say...
Honestly, one of the best bits of this apartment is the kitchen itself, kitted out with integrated Bosch appliances (dishwasher, fridge/freezer, washer/dryer, oven), so there's nothing to sort out and nothing to replace.
A huge, fully boarded loft is not something you find in flats very often, and it's a genuine game-changer for storage.
Throw open those French doors onto the Juliet balcony on a summer evening, and this open-plan space really comes into its own.
There's a landing storage cupboard for all the bits and pieces, a gated resident driveway with your own parking space and EV charger, and even gated bin storage, so the small stuff is taken care of too.
This is a proper turn-key home. Being newly built, there's nothing to do here, no work needed, no compromises.
It's a blank canvas ready for whoever moves in next to make it their own, and it's an ideal first step onto the property ladder. And you're not short of options on your doorstep either.
Alvechurch railway station is a short walk away, putting Birmingham and Redditch within easy reach on the Cross-City Line, while the M42 and M5 are both close by for anyone driving further afield.
The village itself has a lovely, proper community feel, with independent shops, a Co-op for the essentials, cosy canalside pubs, and cafes all within walking distance.
Throw in the towpath walks along the Worcester and Birmingham Canal and the Lickey Hills nearby for weekend wandering, and you've got the best of village life with the city still close enough when you need it.
