Self Assessments & Tax Returns

If you rent out property, you’ll usually need to tell HMRC about the income through Self Assessment. Since 6 April 2026, landlords and sole traders with qualifying income over £50,000 also have to use Making Tax Digital for Income Tax, and the threshold falls to £30,000 from 6 April 2027. If you have rental income you haven’t declared, HMRC has a disclosure service, and it’s better to come forward before HMRC contacts you.

At IB&Co Accountants, we are specialists in self assessment for property owners. We take the work of preparing and filing your tax return off your hands, so you can spend your time on your properties.

Services We Offer To Property Owners

WHAT YOU GET

We pride ourselves on making things as easy for our customers as possible. At the initial meeting, we spend time getting to know you as an individual, in order to be able to provide the best possible service.

What we do differently

We provide comprehensive business advice and support tailored to your unique set of circumstances. We are able to do this because we take the time at our first meeting with you to really understand how you operate.

A Proactive Approach

We review your figures during the year, so we can flag tax points early, for example when Making Tax Digital or a higher tax band may start to apply.
