If ring-fencing of losses is passed the government will get a bump in revenue first few years but that will ease off in time as properties and portfolios break even and use up losses carried forward. The break even point will be delayed or brought forward if for example interest rates rise / fall and if landlords do more / less upgrading. And overall tax revenue from the policy will rise fall if the rental pool increases / decreases.
Landlords can't do much about interest rates, but otherwise they can and will make decisions that make sense to them.
