I am currently receiving ESA contribution based benefit and have been placed in the support group. I have inherited 2 properties that I am renting out and a lump sum. I now want to invest in another property with this lump sum, which I intend to rent out. Will this effect my ESA benefit in any way? Would it be considered by the DWP as a business? I am going through a property letting /estate agent who will be managing the property on my behalf. Please advise.
