What happens if you get property tax wrong?
You might think it's easier to go it alone, but landlord tax isn't always straightforward. Here's what could go wrong:
- HMRC penalties - Missing deadlines or filing wrong information can lead to fines and interest
- Overpaying tax - Not claiming the right expenses (like letting fees or repairs) means less profit
- Underpaying tax - HMRC could charge you for honest mistakes made years ago
- Capital gains shocks - If you sell your Swansea property without planning, your tax bill could be thousands more
Our partner makes sure your tax is right, every time, explaining everything in plain English.
