This exodus has happened in one form here in Cardiff, from expensive, run-down private hirings to cheaper, modern, safer and more comfortable student "villages".

The students moved out, the landlords panicked when the homes were not refilled with cash cow unemployed families, then the Eastern Europeans arrived.

Now the landlords have had their fingers burnt badly by that group and "For Hire" signs are all over the place. I hope the buy-to-let vultures go down in flames as they are the driving force of rising rents.
