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.

Further details are available in the catalogue - Addendum Check the latest addendum at buttersjohnbee.com for any alterations or changes to the catalogue Guide Price An indication of the seller’s current minimum acceptable price at auction.
The guide price or range of guide prices is given to assist consumers in deciding whether or not to pursue a purchase.
It is usual, but not always the case that a provisional reserve range is agreed between the seller and the auctioneer at the start of marketing.
As the reserve is not fixed at this stage and can be adjusted by the seller at any time up to the day of the auction in the light of interest shown during the marketing period, a guide price is issued.
This guide price can be shown in the form of a minimum and maximum price range within which an acceptable sale price (reserve) would fall, or as a single price figure within 10% of which the minimum acceptable price (reserve) would fall.
A guide price is different to a reserve price (see separate definition).
Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction Reserve The seller’s minimum acceptable price at auction and the figure below which the auctioneer cannot sell.
The reserve price is not disclosed and remains confidential between the seller and the auctioneer.
Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction Proof of Identity To comply with Money Laundering Regulations, on acceptance of an offer for purchase or letting, the buyer or prospective tenant will be required to provide identification to Butters John Bee.
