❓ Common Questions
Can I get a mortgage in Manchester with bad credit?
In most cases, yes. Specialist lenders assess applications individually rather than relying on the automated scoring high street banks use. The type, age and severity of your credit issues will determine which lenders are realistic options for you.
What counts as bad credit for a mortgage?
This covers CCJs, defaults, missed payments, IVAs, DMPs and bankruptcy. Each is treated differently by lenders — an old, satisfied issue is viewed very differently to a recent, unresolved one.
How much deposit will I need in Manchester?
This depends on the severity of your credit history, but many specialist products are available from 10-15% deposit, with better rates as your deposit increases.
