Useful Tax Resources

RITA4Rent has provided NRLA members with access to the following handy tax resources. 

Property Accounts Spreadsheet

Last Updated: 10/04/2024

This property accounts spreadsheet will help you keep thorough and complete records of your property whether for business purposes or just your own personal portfolio. In addition, it is good practice to separate records between properties, especially if you let more than one. The spreadsheet is organised so you can instantly compare and contrast similar costs for up to 10 properties on the same page, while also allowing you to delve into the specific cost types to each of your properties.

Property Tax Dates

Last Updated: 20/04/2022

In recent years, HMRC have become more aggressive in penalising those who file and/or pay their taxes late, and in light of this, we summarise below a selection of dates for your diary in 2021/22. This should ensure you are aware of the full position, and that no deadlines are missed!
