Accountants for Landlords FAQs

Below are answers to the most commonly asked questions regarding landlord and property accounting. If you can't find the answer you're looking for, please get in touch with our team today.

How can an accountant help with tax planning for landlords?

Our accountants help landlords with tax planning by identifying allowable deductions such as mortgage interest, property taxes, operating expenses, and depreciation. They also assist in structuring property holdings to manage tax returns in a tax-efficient manner and provide guidance on compliance with changing tax laws to avoid any penalties.

Do landlords need specialised accountants?

When it comes to property accounts, landlords will typically have unique financial challenges and tax obligations that differ from those of other businesses or individuals. A specialised accountant understands the complexities of rental income, property management expenses, how to pay income tax, capital gains tax, and the specific deductions landlords can claim. So, having your own dedicated accountant will maximise the financial efficiency of your property, as well as ensure compliance with the latest tax regulations.

How often should I consult with my accountant?

Depending on your requirements, we recommend consulting with your accountant at least on a quarterly basis. Tax preparation and filing can be done on an annual basis. However, more frequent consultations are recommended for ongoing financial management in relation to tax aspects, especially when acquiring new properties, making significant renovations, or changing rental strategies.

What services do TFMC's accountants for landlords offer?

At TFMC, our landlord accounting packages typically offer a range of services, including bookkeeping, financial reporting, tax preparation and planning, advice on property investment and structuring, compliance with local property laws, and advice on maximising tax efficiencies on landlord tax returns. They also assist with budgeting and financial forecasting specific to property investments. Our packages can also be customised so that our clients can access the accounting services they require.

What expenses can landlords deduct to reduce their taxable income?

From costs to maintain your property and insurance premiums to marketing expenses and service charges, landlords can legally deduct for a variety of expenses here in the UK, even if you have more than one property. For more information, contact our team directly today.

Can TFMC help with Making Tax Digital for landlords?

Yes! TFMC can assist landlords with complying with Making Tax Digital requirements. For example, we provide recommendations and software setups that align with HMRC’s MTD requirements and support with the transition from paper to digital records. We can also help you with accurate and timely submissions and offer updates and assistance to ensure you remain compliant with MTD regulations.

Are you able to help landlords with VAT?

Yes, we can provide VAT advice and support to landlords, particularly those involved in commercial property letting or development. We offer assistance with VAT registration and ensuring compliance with VAT regulations, as well as guidance on whether to opt to tax a commercial property and the implications of doing so. We also offer expert advice on VAT treatment for property sales, leases, and developments.

How do you ensure I stay compliant with property tax laws?

Our team is highly experienced and continuously keeps up to date with the latest tax laws and regulations. This ensures that our clients receive the most current and relevant advice. We offer: Don't worry. As part of our accounting for landlords services, we'll make sure you're fully aware of any changes in tax legislation that could impact their property business.
