Get your property tax sorted
Property tax sorted, your way. Whether you need to get ready for Making Tax Digital, run a buy-to-let limited company, or get specialist advice on Section 24, CGT, and incorporation.
Property Tax Partners is a firm of specialist property accountants working with landlords, buy-to-let investors, and property developers across the UK. We work only with property, so Section 24, the Non-Resident Landlord Scheme, capital gains on disposals, ATED, and the personal-versus-limited-company decision are core competence rather than an occasional sideline.
Whether you hold one rental flat or a portfolio of thirty, a property tax accountant turns the rules into a plan: modelling your Section 24 finance-cost restriction, getting you compliant with Making Tax Digital for Income Tax (live since 6 April 2026), running the incorporation arithmetic before you commit, and filing your capital gains within the 60-day HMRC window. Fixed fees, 24-hour response, no hard sell.
Property-only focus means we understand Section 24, MTD, incorporation, and CGT inside out.

Quarterly digital reporting from April 2026
Full feasibility modelling: CGT, SDLT, break-even
Property-by-property profitability tracking
From the everyday return to the once-in-a-portfolio decision, here is the full scope we cover for UK landlords and investors.
Mortgage interest has not been a deductible expense since 6 April 2020. We model the 20% basic-rate credit and the higher-rate wedge so you see your true taxable profit, not just your cash profit.
Quarterly digital filing has been live since 6 April 2026 for landlords over £50,000, dropping to £30,000 in 2027 and £20,000 in 2028. We handle software, category mapping, and the quarterly submissions.
Residential gains are taxed at 18% and 24% and must be reported and paid within 60 days of completion. We prepare the computation, apply any reliefs, and file inside the window.
The 5% additional-dwellings surcharge (since 31 October 2024) and the 17% enveloped-dwelling rate change the maths on every purchase and transfer. We cost it before you commit.
We run the corporation tax saving against the SDLT and CGT cost of transferring properties in, then handle company accounts, CT600s, and tax-efficient profit extraction.
Property is illiquid and routinely pushes an estate over the nil-rate band. We plan lifetime gifting, trusts, and share transfers alongside your ownership structure, not in isolation.
Commercial lettings, the option to tax, and conversions carry VAT treatment that residential lets do not. We get the registration, recovery, and option-to-tax decisions right.
Overseas landlords can receive rents gross under the NRLS instead of suffering 20% withholding. We register you (NRL1 or NRL2) and keep the UK filing in order.
Residential property over £500,000 held in a company needs an annual ATED return, with relief for genuine lettings filed by 30 April. We file the relief return on time so no charge arises.
If rental income has gone unreported, the HMRC Let Property Campaign is the route to regularise it on the best available terms. We manage the disclosure from first contact to settlement.
Fixtures and integral features in qualifying property carry allowances that are easy to miss. We separate revenue repairs from capital improvements and claim what is genuinely due.
SA105 property pages, every allowable expense captured, and a return that stands up to an HMRC enquiry. The annual baseline we get right for every landlord client.

Tax law is national, so we act for landlords anywhere in the UK. We also publish city-specific guidance for the markets where we work most.
A generalist accountant can file your return. A specialist property accountant makes sure the structure, the reliefs, and the deadlines are right before you ever get there.
Our team are qualified accountants who work only with property, and we keep current with every change that affects landlords.
We work only with landlords, investors, and developers, so the property rules are core competence rather than an occasional sideline.
Section 24, the 60-day CGT window, and incorporation modelled correctly, not treated as an afterthought.
Quoted up front, and for most landlords recovered several times over through reliefs claimed and penalties avoided.
The Finance Act 2026 measures, the 2027 income tax rate change, and the falling MTD thresholds are built into your plan.
Anonymised feedback from landlords and investors we have worked with.
They modelled our Section 24 position properly for the first time and showed us exactly where incorporation did and did not make sense. No hard sell, just the numbers.
We were weeks from missing the 60-day capital gains deadline on a sale. They turned the computation around and filed on time. Worth the fee on that alone.
Getting ready for Making Tax Digital felt overwhelming. They set up the software, mapped every property, and now the quarterly filing just happens.
Practical guidance on Section 24, MTD, incorporation, and portfolio management
A practical guide for landlords deciding whether genuinely-free MTD for Income Tax software can carry their obligation: where free actually exists, the eligibility gates that decide whether it works for you, and what free really costs in time, missing compliance features and year-end risk, now the mandate is live.
When you buy a commercial property you can claim capital allowances on the plant, integral features and structure, but only if you secure them correctly. This guide explains what qualifies, the rates from April 2026, the section 198 fixtures election you must agree within two years of purchase, and the structures and buildings allowance you cannot claim without an allowance statement.
