Yep, they generally want proof of finance to weed out time wasters.

If you're not comfortable with showing the AIP get your solicitor to type a letter with something along the lines of "X has finance secured to close the sale of amout 'insert sale agreed price'". Worked for us.

You are buying a new-built, there will be no biddings, an agent wont increase the price just because you could afford more.
