Background

Like other business owners, landlords need to understand their tax obligations. An understanding of how property income is taxed and the rules on what may be claimed will enable you to minimise your tax bill, meaning thousands of pounds can be saved simply by understanding the rules. The course will explain how property income is taxed and the trainer will use various worked examples to illustrate relevant points. You will learn about deductions and allowances you may claim, gain knowledge on potential tax planning measures, and get numerous hints and tips for reducing your annual tax bill. 

This training course qualifies for 4 continuous professional development (CPD) points which can help towards or maintain your accreditation with the NRLA. If you are interested in becoming an accredited landlord with the NRLA, CPD points are necessary to achieve that status. 

NRLA Accreditation recognises landlords who have agreed to maintain professional standards in the management and maintenance of their rented property and deal fairly and professionally with their tenants. Accredited members demonstrate their knowledge and understanding of their responsibilities and obligations and strive to maintain, increase and improve their knowledge of the market through training and development. CPD points are awarded for all activities which improve those attributes and are a requisite of membership of the NRLA Accreditation Scheme.
