We were going to get a AIP from Principality this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we are dependent on web based calculators (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Principality recommend any North Ferriby solicitors on the Principality conveyancing panel, or is it better to find our own lawyer?

You will need to appoint North Ferriby solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Principality conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Principality through the process.
