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.

Tenant demand here comes from two directions; students and professionals. Students at Newcastle and Northumbria Universities are within walking distance.
So are the nearby offices and hospitals that employ the young professional market.
