Landlord Tax Guides
If you rent out a property in the UK, you must declare the rental income to HMRC through Self Assessment — even if you make a loss after expenses. This guide covers the tax rules specific to individual landlords with a single rental property, including the Section 24 mortgage interest restriction that significantly affects higher-rate taxpayers. All figures are for the 2025-26 and 2026-27 tax years..
