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
Canterbury Student Village is superbly located for access to the main universities (Canterbury Christchurch, University of Kent and UCA and the Canterbury College) and is less than a 20-minute walk in the city centre.
It has great nearby facilities including a 24hr Asda, local gym and bus services. Just 1 hour by train to and from London makes it a superb location for students.
The city itself has much to offer from its superb medieval architecture, cobbled streets, cool cafes, and bars as well as being just 10 minutes from the beach.
Canterbury Student Village has been in operation since 2016 and is 100% occupied.
Now undergoing a complete exterior and interior refurbishment to modernise and attract a higher rent, it is already well-established, expected and has strong links with the universities.
Exterior works including new cladding and decoration is currently underway and individual rooms and communal spaces will be refurbished and modernised ahead of the new academic year starting September 2022.
