That is what I am hearing on the ground. A protection is very much being built in for people who have mortgages and buy-to-let properties.

However, for those on the coalface who are renting buy-to-let properties, I am finding their experience to be very different and especially those who are tenants in receipt of rent allowance. In the vast majority of such cases, when a property changes hands like this, someone in receipt of rent allowance is almost automatically forced out of the property.
