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.

As a result, the purchaser can expect an annual income of approximately £1,200 for the remainder of the scheme period. In addition, a separate solar panel system provides hot water heating.
This has proven highly efficient, and the current owners have not needed to use the gas boiler for almost three months as a result. 1.
