Let Property Campaign Accountant UK

Rental income issues often surface years after letting begins; records are missing, agents have changed, and earlier filings no longer match what can be supported. We assess the position early, before HMRC limits the available routes, so disclosure stays controlled.

Legend Fusions is the UK advisory brand evolved from Legend Financial & Tax Advisers, unifying tax, compliance, and advisory services under one international group.

Serving clients in London, Bolton, Milton Keynes and throughout the UK.

Is This Process Relevant to You?

HMRC expects rental income errors to be corrected through a formal disclosure process. In practice, most landlords only approach once they realise something has been missed, not at the point the letting began.
Where earlier returns contain omissions or unsupported figures, the correct route is formal disclosure it is not an amendment.

Risks of Not Disclosing Rental Income

Failing to disclose rental income can lead to financial and regulatory consequences.

This may result in:

  • Penalties influenced by how HMRC interpret behaviour and disclosure timing.  
  • Interest running from the original due dates until settlement.  
  • Wider review of earlier returns and the quality of supporting records.

Once HMRC open the matter, room to influence penalties and timing reduces.

What the Let Property Campaign Covers

Most disclosures require several years to be rebuilt from records never prepared for later challenge. We take the position from assessment to submission.

  • Disclosure of undeclared or incorrectly reported rental income
  • Preparation of backdated returns for affected tax years
  • Review of allowable property expenses and deductions
  • Correction of previously unreported or underreported income
  • Penalty reduction through voluntary disclosure
  • Submission via HMRC’s official disclosure facility

Our focus is on accuracy, compliance, and controlled resolution.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Let Property Campaign?
The Let Property Campaign is HMRC’s formal route for landlords to disclose undeclared or incorrectly reported UK rental income. It allows issues to be resolved through voluntary disclosure rather than HMRC enforcement.
An HMRC Let Property Campaign disclosure involves reviewing affected tax years, calculating unpaid tax and interest, assessing penalties, and submitting a complete disclosure through HMRC’s facility.
Landlords should consider disclosure if rental income was missed, underreported, or reported incorrectly in any past return. This includes UK landlords, accidental landlords, and those with complex or historic issues.
Yes. Overseas landlords earning UK rental income remain subject to UK tax rules. The HMRC Let Property Campaign disclosure is the correct process for resolving historic UK rental income, even if you live abroad.
Let Property Campaign penalties depend on behaviour, timing, and whether disclosure is voluntary. Early disclosure typically results in lower penalties than cases identified by HMRC through investigation.
HMRC Let Property Campaign penalty rates vary depending on whether errors were careless or deliberate and how promptly disclosure is made. Rates are assessed individually rather than fixed in advance.
Yes. Once HMRC is notified, a 90-day window usually applies to complete and submit the disclosure. Missing the HMRC Let Property Campaign 90-day window can increase penalties.
There is no single campaign end date, but once you engage with HMRC, clear submission deadlines apply. Acting early provides greater control over timing and outcome.
In limited circumstances, a reasonable excuse may be considered, but HMRC applies strict criteria. Evidence and timing are critical, and acceptance is not automatic.
HMRC does not provide a simple Let Property Campaign calculator. Accurate disclosure requires a full review of rental income, expenses, tax years involved, and applicable penalty rates.
Interest accrues from the original tax due date until settlement. Payment arrangements may be available depending on circumstances, but interest continues to apply until liabilities are cleared.
Yes. We support landlords in Hounslow, Stratford, Bolton, and across the UK through secure consultations, with in-person meetings available by appointment in London.
