Frequently asked questions
What specific services do accountants for landlords provide?
Accountants for landlords typically offer services such as preparing and filing Self Assessment tax returns, calculating and advising on capital gains tax, managing VAT returns for VAT-registered landlords, and providing year-end accounts for limited company landlords. They also help with record-keeping, expense tracking, and tax planning to minimise liabilities. Additionally, they can represent you in dealings with HMRC, ensuring compliance with all current regulations and deadlines.
How can an accountant help me with HMRC compliance?
An accountant ensures that you meet all HMRC requirements, including accurate and timely submission of your tax return and payment of any tax due. They stay up to date with changes in tax law and HMRC digital initiatives, such as Making Tax Digital, which may affect landlords. By maintaining proper records and submitting correct information, they reduce the risk of penalties, interest charges, and investigations. They can also act as your agent in correspondence with HMRC.
What qualifications should I look for in a landlord accountant?
Look for accountants who are members of recognised professional bodies such as ACCA, ICAEW, or AAT. These qualifications require rigorous training, ongoing professional development, and adherence to strict ethical standards. Membership in these bodies also means the accountant is subject to regulation and oversight, providing you with recourse if you receive poor service. Additionally, experience in property taxation is essential, so ask about their work with other landlords.
Can an accountant help me reduce my tax bill as a landlord?
Yes, a qualified accountant can identify legitimate deductions and allowances that you may have overlooked, such as repairs, maintenance, insurance, and professional fees. They can advise on the most tax-efficient structure for your property business, whether that is owning personally or through a limited company. They can also help with timing of income and expenses, and strategies to mitigate capital gains tax when you sell a property. Their goal is to ensure you pay only what you owe.
How do I know if I need to be VAT-registered as a landlord?
VAT registration is mandatory if your taxable turnover exceeds the current threshold, which is £90,000. For landlords, rental income from residential properties is generally exempt from VAT, but commercial property letting may be subject to VAT or subject to the option to tax. An accountant can assess your specific situation and advise whether registration is required or beneficial. They can also handle your VAT returns and ensure you comply with all regulations.
What records should I keep as a landlord for my accountant?
You should keep detailed records of all rental income received, including tenancy agreements and rent statements. You must also retain receipts for all expenses, such as repairs, letting agent fees, insurance, and utility bills if you pay them. Records of any mortgage interest payments, capital improvements, and property purchase or sale documents are essential. Your accountant will need these to prepare accurate accounts and tax returns, so organise them by date and category.
