The honest answers to what you’re thinking
Do landlords really need an accountant?
If you have one property and simple affairs, you may manage alone. But with mortgage-interest rules, multiple properties, or any thought of selling or incorporating, an accountant usually saves more tax than the fee — and keeps you the right side of HMRC.
How much do accountants charge for rental income?
We agree a fixed fee up front based on the number of properties and the work involved. For most landlords it’s modest, and the expenses and reliefs we claim typically outweigh it.
How can I legally reduce tax on my rental income?
Through claiming every allowable expense, using allowances, considering ownership structure (including whether a company makes sense for you), and planning around Section 24 and CGT. We’ll model the options for your situation — all legitimate, no schemes.
What are the new HMRC rules for landlords?
The big one is Making Tax Digital for Income Tax, which brings digital records and quarterly updates for landlords with income over £50,000 from April 2026. We’ll get you ready in good time.
