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.

The Seller’s view - "Being right round the corner to Fairlands Valley Park to enjoy a stroll in the morning or evening is one thing I'll miss.
We've refurbished the whole property, providing minimal renovation costs for the new homeowner. Within the kitchen there is ample storage space and worktops for prepping.
Our dining space adjacent to the kitchen has been excellent when hosting, when cooking you're not shut off from guests sitting at the table, it's a lovely social spot.
The living room is 14" in size and has a really calming feel, when more friends and family are over, we extend into our conservatory, this is a home where you could easily host 10+ at Christmas.
Within the summer our French doors provides a nice cool breeze to flow throughout the house.
Plenty of storage space is found within the house, whether that's in the space by the front door, storage cupboard in the kitchen that's ideal for hoovers/ironing boards, landing cupboard and loft space perfect for Christmas decorations and everything else we don't want on show, additionally all bedrooms have either built in wardrobes or plenty of space for freestanding ones." Ricky’s view - "Representing a fantastic first time purchase, downsizing home or buy to let investor looking to achieve the best part of £1,600 PCM .
Additional benefits to the sellers points include a large entrance hall which is very inviting, an ideal space for shoes and coats.
Parking for two provides ease when the weather is bad or unloading the shopping. The road is reasonably quiet too if you have guests over that need to park.
Whilst backing on to the lakes, you will also find a large garden, which is predominantly laid with grass and patio area ideal for BBQ's.
Within a short walk are local parades of SHOPS, a pharmacy, convenient store, cafe, takeaways and many more are just up the road."
