Worth knowing
Rules that come up in this work
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.
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.
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.
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.
The trading and property allowances
Not every small income needs a tax return. The trading allowance exempts the first £1,000 of self-employment or casual income and the property allowance does the same for rental income, each measured on gross receipts. They cannot be combined with rent-a-room relief on the same income, and claiming the allowance means giving up the expense deduction for that source.
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 60-day property CGT return
The 60-day Capital Gains Tax return on residential property is the deadline landlords most often miss, because it falls outside the Self Assessment cycle and runs from completion, not exchange. Private residence relief for periods you lived in the property, plus the final nine months, reduces the gain. Penalties for a late return mirror Self Assessment, starting at £100.
Questions
Landlord & Property Tax questions from Wimbledon Park
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.
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.
Is replacing a kitchen a repair or an improvement?
Replacing like with like, or with the modern equivalent, is a repair and deductible, even if the new kitchen is better quality because standards have risen. Adding something that was not there before, such as extending the kitchen or adding a dishwasher space, is an improvement and goes against the capital gain instead. We split mixed invoices.
What expenses can I claim?
Letting agent fees, repairs and maintenance, buildings and contents insurance, ground rent and service charges, council tax and utilities you pay, accountancy, legal fees for lets of a year or less, replacing furniture and appliances, mileage to the property, and advertising. Improvements, your own labour and the capital part of mortgage payments are not allowable.
How is mortgage interest treated now?
Since April 2020 individual landlords cannot deduct mortgage interest or other finance costs from rental profit. Instead you receive a tax reduction of 20% of the finance costs. For higher-rate taxpayers this means more tax than under the old rules, and the restriction can push rental profit into a higher band. We calculate it and carry forward any unused credit.
What is included in the £149 one-property fee?
The rental income and expenditure account for the property, a review of every expense category, the finance-cost credit calculation, the UK property pages and the rest of your Self Assessment return completed and filed with HMRC. Rental income alongside employment or a pension is the most common case and this fee covers it.
