Preparing Landlords for Making Tax Digital

Making Tax Digital for Income Tax is being introduced in stages and will affect many landlords over the coming years.

Under the new rules, eligible landlords will be required to:

• Keep digital records

• Use HMRC-compatible software

• Complete a Final Declaration at the end of the tax year

I can help you transition smoothly from paper records or spreadsheets to an efficient digital bookkeeping system that meets HMRC requirements.

Common allowable expenses may include:

• Letting agent fees

• Property maintenance and repairs
