Your mortgage interest barely counts
In your own name, you can’t deduct mortgage interest from your rental income. You get a 20% tax credit instead. A company deducts the lot.
-
Taxed at up to 45%. Soon 47%.
Rental profit lands on top of your salary and is taxed at your income tax rate, rising to as much as 47% from April 2027. A company pays 19% to 25%.

Changing your mind gets expensive
Move a property into a company later and you’ll usually pay stamp duty and capital gains tax to do it. Far easier to start in the right place.

Own name or company? The tax bit, in plain English.

Frequently asked questions
Is a company always better than my own name?
Often, not always. With a mortgage, a company gets full relief on the interest and pays corporation tax instead of income tax.
Can I form the company before I’ve found a property?
Yes, and it’s the smart order. Company incorporated, bank account open, and you’re ready to move the moment an offer’s accepted.
So I don’t need an accountant?
For a straightforward property company, no. The bookkeeping tool, annual accounts and corporation tax are all covered in the £29.99 a month, against £1,500 or more a year for a typical accountant. If yours is more complicated, we’ll tell you straight rather than wing it.
What if I don’t buy anything this year?
The company still has filings to make, even while it’s empty. We keep those up to date while you’re looking, so nothing lapses.
Will a mortgage lender accept it?
We form it as a property SPV, which is the setup buy-to-let lenders usually look for.
What does it all cost?
£10 to form the company, then £29.99 a month with year-end accounts and corporation tax filing included. No year-end invoice, no hourly rate.
