I'm Anita Staley, an independent mortgage adviser based in Edenfield, right on the northern edge of Greater Manchester. I work with clients across Bury, Bolton, Rochdale, Salford and Manchester itself, and I know the local property market because I work in it every day.

Greater Manchester is ten boroughs with very different housing: Victorian terraces in Bolton and Rochdale, family semis in Bury and Prestwich, new-build estates on the edges of most towns, and thousands of city-centre apartments in Manchester and Salford. Each brings its own lending quirks, and that's where a broker earns their fee.

How I help Greater Manchester buyers and homeowners

  • First-time buyers — working out what you can borrow, which lenders suit your deposit, and how to get from offer to keys without surprises.
  • Remortgaging — reviewing your options three to six months before your fixed rate ends, so you don't drift onto your lender's standard variable rate.
  • Home movers — porting your existing mortgage or finding a better deal, and keeping the chain moving.
  • Buy-to-let — from first rental properties to portfolio landlords, including limited company purchases.
  • Holiday homes — mortgages for second homes and holiday lets.

Why use a local, independent adviser?

As a whole-of-market broker I search products from 90+ lenders, including deals you can't get by going direct to a bank. Being local helps too: I know which lenders are comfortable with older stone-built properties in the Pennine towns, which take a cautious line on high-rise city-centre flats, and which surveyors and solicitors work across the area.

You can meet me by phone, by video call, or in person — whichever suits you. Evening and weekend appointments are available.

Local area guides

I advise clients all over the UK by phone and video call, so you don't need to live nearby to work with me. Closer to home, I've put together guides for the towns around my Edenfield base — choose yours below, or get in touch wherever you are.
