  • You can apply in principle to see how much they would lend you in a theoretical situation. This can give you more credibility with the vendor. You may be able to save on fees if you have an existing A&L current account. It might be advisable to instruct your personel officer to release details of your salary and terms of service to potential mortgage lenders.
