I welcome our visitors. Mr. Masding said at the beginning that a buy-to-let property is not someone's private residence. I think he meant that it is not the landlord's residence but it is the tenant's principal private residence. Is that taken into account when dealing with buy-to-let properties? Does the bank extend the protection of the Family Home Protection Act to the tenant who has paid his or her rent and pursue the landlord who is the defaulting party rather than the tenant? Is it the bank's policy to seek vacant possession?
