Let our landlord accountants in Southampton reconcile and regularise your tax affairs
As a landlord, you’re responsible for preparing Self Assessment tax returns for HMRC. Whether you have a single property or a whole portfolio, the process can be cumbersome, especially when considering your rental income with other types of income, liabilities, or capital gains. Moreover, tax laws relating to rental property change often and can be tricky to keep up with.

We’ll advise you on what property investments to make, what tax reliefs to apply for, and how to budget for tax payments while taking care of the basics, like bookkeeping. We’ll also liaise with HMRC on your behalf and represent you in case there are any disputes.

I've been with BBK for three years, and I couldn't be happier with their service. Their receipt scanning app makes managing my accounts a breeze, and I always know my tax liabilities well before payment is due. It really takes the hassle out of accounting!

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Why should I work with a specialist landlord accountant?
As a landlord, you want to make sure that your tax returns are in the hands of someone who understands the nuances of the real estate space and the unique tax laws applicable. By working with BBK Accounts, you can access tailored tax and financial planning advice to maximise the profits from your rental property or your property sale.
Do I have to file my returns digitally?
Not yet but you very soon will have to - so it might be worth starting now. HMRC is introducing something called Making Tax Digital for Income Tax Self Assessment (MTD for ITSA) and this requires businesses and landlords to maintain their records digitally and report these to HMRC quarterly using compatible software.
For landlords with a qualifying income over £50,000, they will need to start this process from April 2026; for those with a qualifying income over £30,000 (but under £50,000), this is introduced from April 2027.
Please ask us for more information about MTD for ITSA to help you get ready in time.
