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.

Guide price £650,000 -£700,000- A well-presented four-bedroom 1930s semi-detached family home, ideally positioned in the heart of the highly sought-after Patcham area of Brighton.
