What this broker covers
From the areas recorded here.
Manchester Mortgage Centre records 6 areas of advice from its base in Rochdale: bad / adverse credit, self-employed, help to buy, buy-to-let, first-time buyers and residential.
Covering both adverse credit and self-employed lending is the harder end of the market — those two together are exactly the cases high-street lenders turn away, and they need a broker who knows the specialist panel.
Bad / Adverse Credit
Adverse credit work means the firm places cases that high-street lenders decline — defaults, missed payments, CCJs, IVAs and discharged bankruptcies. Lenders in this space price by how recent and how severe the event was, so the date on your credit file matters more than the amount.
Read the bad / adverse credit guideSelf-Employed
Self-employed cases turn on how a lender reads your income. Some average two or three years of accounts, some use your latest year, and sole traders, limited-company directors and day-rate contractors are all assessed differently. A firm that does this regularly knows which lenders sit where.
Read the self-employed guideHelp to Buy
Help to Buy cases now mostly mean people who already hold an equity loan and need to remortgage, staircase out of it, or sell. The equity loan has to be repaid at the property's current value, not what you borrowed.
Read the help to buy guideBuy-to-Let
Buy-to-let borrowing is capped by a rental stress test rather than by your salary, and the sums differ sharply between personal ownership and a limited company. Portfolio landlords with four or more mortgaged properties face extra underwriting. With self-employed lending also covered, business-owner landlords should find both halves of the case understood.
Read the buy-to-let guideFirst-Time Buyers
First-time-buyer work means walking someone through it from scratch: what deposit is realistic, what an agreement in principle is worth to an estate agent, which schemes still exist and what lenders will ask to see. Help to Buy is listed too, which matters if you are buying from someone still holding an equity loan.
Read the first-time buyers guideResidential
Standard residential advice covers buying, moving and remortgaging on your own home — the bulk of UK mortgage lending, and the area where switching deal at the right moment usually saves the most. Here that runs alongside adverse-credit work, so it covers people a high-street lender has already turned down.

- 3Given what is on my credit file and when it happened, which lenders would consider me, and roughly how much more will that cost than a high-street rate?

- 5What are my options for the equity loan — repay it, remortgage around it, or leave it in place — and what does each cost?
- 6How does the rental stress test change what I can borrow, and would buying through a limited company work out better for me after tax?

Frequently asked questions
What does Manchester Mortgage Centre charge for mortgage advice?
Not recorded on this listing — ask Manchester Mortgage Centre directly, as it must tell you before you commit. Buy-to-let and limited-company cases are often charged differently from residential ones — ask which bracket you fall into.
What types of mortgage does Manchester Mortgage Centre handle?
Manchester Mortgage Centre records bad / adverse credit, self-employed, help to buy, buy-to-let, first-time buyers and residential, working from Rochdale. Ask anyway if your case sits outside that list.
Can Manchester Mortgage Centre help if I have bad credit?
Manchester Mortgage Centre lists adverse credit as an area it covers, which means it places cases involving defaults, missed payments, CCJs or an IVA. Bring the dates and amounts from your credit file to the first conversation — specialist lenders price on how recent the event was, so an adviser cannot give you a realistic answer without them.
Does Manchester Mortgage Centre only cover Rochdale?
Manchester Mortgage Centre is listed in Rochdale, but UK brokers are not restricted to their own area and most advise nationally by phone or video.
