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.

About
A recently decorated ground floor maisonette with its own private garden, garage and gas central heating. Over 900 years remaining on lease -with no service charge and a ground rent of only £10pa!
No chain - immediate vacant possession.
The property: Defined by its private entrance, generous natural light and rare private gardens, this two-bedroom maisonette offers a very practical and easy to live in home.
Large windows draw daylight through the accommodation, creating bright, welcoming interiors that reflect the clean architectural lines of the period.
The entrance hall leads to a comfortable living room with open outlook to the front, while the kitchen is arranged for everyday practicality with an integrated 'fridge freezer, 4 ring gas hob and oven beneath a concealed hood.
The washing machine will be included in the sale. The two well-proportioned bedrooms are served by a bathroom which would benefit from updating.
There is gas central heating and double glazing throughout. Offered with a desirable nearby garage and immediate vacant possession, it provides the opportunity to move without delay.
What sets this home apart is its outside space. A private enclosed rear garden offers room to relax, entertain or cultivate, while the open front lawn enjoys an attractive outlook opposite.
Outdoor space of this nature is rarely found with a maisonette and brings many of the qualities more often associated with bungalow living.
With over 900 years remaining on the lease, no maintenance charge and a nominal ground rent of less than £1 per month, in practical terms, this rivals freehold ownership and represents an excellent value.
It is also a very affordable alternative to a bungalow for those seeking single-level living, and a compelling opportunity for a first-time buyer looking for space, independence and long-term value.
Having previously been let, the property comes with a full suite of certification in place, a point of particular reassurance to first-time buyers, who will also benefit from no Stamp Duty Land Tax liability.
For investors, expects a realistic gross yield of 6.2%. South Oxfordshire District Council (Tax band B) Tenure: Leasehold- remainder of a 999 year lease granted 1964. No maintenance charge.
Ground rent £10.00 per annum. Situation: Wheatley is on the eastern fringe of Oxford, where Otmoor's open farmland meets the wooded slopes of Shotover Country Park.
The village retains a genuine sense of community, with its parish church, well-regarded primary and secondary schools and a handful of independent shops and public houses clustered around the historic high street.
In addition to an Asda in the village, there is a gp practice and dentist with a local Coop at the end of the road.
M40 Junction 8A (Oxford Services) fives good vehicular access to London and Birmingham and major international airports.
For those requiring the city, Oxford's centre lies a seven miles distant, easily reached by regular bus services or a swift drive along the A40, placing the dreaming spires, the Westgate, Covered Market, and the University's cultural riches firmly within daily reach.
Oxford railway station, some nine miles away, provides direct services to London Paddington in around an hour, whilst Haddenham & Thame Parkway, roughly eight miles to the north-east, offers Chiltern Railways connections to London Marylebone in under an hour and to Oxford itself in approximately fifteen minutes.
