Worth knowing

Rules that come up in this work

Switching accountants

You can switch accountant at any point in the year. The new firm requests clearance and your records from the old one, which cannot withhold your own documents though it may hold its own working papers until its fees are settled. Agent authorisations with HMRC and Companies House are transferred, and the next deadline is picked up without a gap.

Closing a company

Voluntary strike-off is available only to solvent companies. One that owes money it cannot pay needs a creditors' voluntary liquidation through a licensed insolvency practitioner, and directors who dissolve an insolvent company face personal consequences. For a solvent company the process takes three to four months from filing the DS01, with notice to creditors and shareholders within seven days.

Dormant companies

A dormant company is one with no significant accounting transactions in the year, where the only permitted entries are the payment for shares on incorporation, Companies House fees and penalties. It still files a confirmation statement and simplified dormant accounts every year. A bank charge or an accountant's fee paid from the company ends dormancy and requires full accounts.

The trading and property allowances

The first £1,000 of trading income and, separately, the first £1,000 of property income each year is tax free under the trading and property allowances. Below those figures no return is needed for that income. Above them you can deduct the £1,000 allowance instead of actual expenses if that is better, which suits side businesses and single-room lets with few costs.

Employer National Insurance

Since April 2025 employer National Insurance has been 15% on earnings above a £5,000 secondary threshold, a substantial increase for small employers. The Employment Allowance rose to £10,500 at the same time to soften it for the smallest businesses. Directors deciding their own salary weigh this cost against the Corporation Tax deduction a salary provides.

Workplace pensions and auto-enrolment

Every employer must assess its workers for automatic enrolment from the first employee's start date. Those aged 22 to State Pension age earning over £10,000 a year must be enrolled into a qualifying pension with minimum contributions of 8% of qualifying earnings, at least 3% from the employer, and a declaration of compliance made to the Pensions Regulator within five months.

Record keeping

Record keeping is a legal obligation with a penalty of up to £3,000 for failure, but its real value is in making every other filing cheaper and more defensible. Keep invoices, receipts, bank statements, mileage logs and any HMRC correspondence, digitally if you like, for five years after the relevant filing deadline for individuals and six years for companies and VAT.

Questions

Landlord & Property Tax questions from Fulwell and Hampton Hill

I rent out a room in my own home. Is that taxable?

Rent-a-room relief exempts the first £7,500 a year of income from letting furnished accommodation in your main home, or £3,750 each if the income is shared. Above that you can pay tax on the excess over £7,500 or on actual profit. Lodgers, Airbnb rooms and short-term lets of a room all qualify.

I have been letting for years and never declared it. What now?

HMRC's Let Property Campaign allows landlords to disclose undeclared rental income with lower penalties than if HMRC finds it, which with data from letting agents, deposit schemes and councils it increasingly does. We quantify the undeclared years, prepare the disclosure and negotiate the settlement. Acting first is always cheaper.

Should I put my properties into a limited company?

Sometimes. A company deducts mortgage interest in full and pays Corporation Tax at 19% to 25%, but extracting profit costs dividend tax, mortgages are dearer and transferring existing properties triggers CGT and SDLT. It suits higher-rate taxpayers building a portfolio long term; it rarely suits one or two properties. Our tax planning review runs the numbers.

I live abroad and rent out a UK property. Do I still pay UK tax?

Yes. UK rental income is taxed in the UK regardless of your residence, with the personal allowance available to most non-residents. Letting agents or tenants must deduct 20% at source unless you are approved under the Non-Resident Landlord Scheme to receive rent gross. We handle the approval and the annual return.

My partner and I own a property jointly. How is the income split?

Married couples and civil partners are taxed 50/50 by default regardless of actual ownership, unless you own in unequal shares and file Form 17 with evidence to be taxed on your actual shares. Unmarried joint owners are taxed on their actual shares. Choosing the right split can save tax where one of you is in a lower band.

What happened to furnished holiday lets?

The furnished holiday let regime ended on 5 April 2025. Holiday lets are now taxed like other residential lets: the finance-cost restriction applies, capital allowances on furniture are replaced by replacement relief, and the capital gains reliefs are withdrawn with transitional rules. Our £249 holiday let service handles the transition and the new treatment.
