Your Tax Help Accountants, HMRC-registered, handles landlord tax for Leicester property owners — self-assessment, Section 24, MTD compliance, CGT and incorporation advice — at a fixed monthly fee.

Landlord Tax Questions

Frequently Asked Landlord Tax Questions

I'm a Leicester landlord who has held properties for many years without professional advice — what might I be missing?
Several things, commonly. Most self-managing landlords miss allowable expenses — particularly replacement furniture relief, mileage to manage properties, and professional fees. Many are not optimally structured for Section 24, which has significantly increased tax bills for higher rate taxpayers. And very few are prepared for Making Tax Digital. A review typically reveals meaningful savings. Book a free call and we will assess your position at no cost.
How should Leicester landlords handle the transition from self-managing to using a letting agent?
Letting agent fees are fully allowable expenses once you engage an agent — the change has no adverse tax consequences and often improves your overall return by reducing void periods and management stress. If the agent manages repairs and maintenance on your behalf, those costs remain allowable. We advise on correctly documenting the change and ensuring all agent-related costs are captured.
Can Leicester landlords offset mortgage interest against rental income under any structure?
Not in a personal name — Section 24 restricts mortgage interest to a 20% basic rate credit for personally-held properties. However, in a limited company structure mortgage interest remains fully deductible as a business expense. For Leicester landlords with significant mortgage debt, this is often the key financial argument for incorporation. We model the exact difference in after-tax income for your specific portfolio.
What is the capital gains tax position for long-held Leicester rental properties?
Leicester property values have grown substantially over the past 20 years. For properties held for many years, the capital gain on sale can be very large — and CGT on residential property is charged at 18% or 24% depending on your tax band. Advance planning — using annual exemptions, timing disposals, considering principal private residence relief for former homes — can make a significant difference. We plan well ahead of any intended sale.
