Owning rental property should feel like progress, not paperwork. Whether you have a single buy to let or a growing portfolio, managing rental income, tax returns and ever-changing regulations on top of everything else quickly becomes time consuming. Cathy and Wayne work closely with landlords and property owners across the UK to provide clear, practical accounting support that keeps your finances in order and your focus firmly on your property.
Landlords face a unique set of financial challenges. From calculating tax on rental income and managing self assessment to understanding the tax implications of buying, selling or transferring property, the rules around UK landlord tax are constantly shifting. Many landlords are unsure what they can legitimately claim as expenses, how to structure their property business efficiently, or whether they are paying more tax than they need to.
At Green Zebra Business Solutions, we are specialist landlord accountants who understand how property income actually works. Whether you are a sole trader letting residential property, operating through a limited company, or growing an existing portfolio of buy to let and commercial property, we provide tailored advice that reflects your specific situation and long-term goals.
We help property owners stay in control of their tax affairs year round, from income tax and property tax through to capital gains tax when the time comes to sell. With Making Tax Digital now changing how landlords report income to HMRC, having the right systems and a dedicated accountant in place has never been more important.
Clear, forward-thinking advice based on how your property business actually operates, helping you make confident decisions about your portfolio at every stage.
No jargon. Just honest, plain-English explanations from landlord accountants who focus on what actually matters for property owners.
We use Xero and Dext to give you real-time access to your accounts, so your rental income, expenses and tax position are always accurate and accessible wherever you are.

Using tools like Xero and Dext, we give you live access to your accounts from anywhere. Track income across your rental property portfolio, manage expenses, monitor your tax position and make confident decisions without waiting for month-end reports or chasing updates.

Making Tax Digital for Income Tax Self Assessment is changing how landlords report income to HMRC, and the rollout is already underway. From April 2026, it becomes mandatory for landlords with total income above £50,000. That threshold drops to £30,000 in April 2027 and £20,000 in April 2028.
Under the new rules, you will need HMRC-approved software to keep digital records, submit quarterly updates to HMRC, file an annual End of Period Statement and complete a Final Declaration at year end. Cathy and Wayne use Xero and Dext as standard, so clients are set up for full compliance from day one.
Unsure how Making Tax Digital affects your rental income or when you need to act? Call 01264 598170 or email hello@greenzebraltd.com and we will walk you through exactly what applies to you.
Owning one or two properties alongside other income can make self assessment more complicated than expected. We support individual landlords with rental income declarations, allowable expenses and personal tax returns, making sure your tax affairs stay accurate, compliant and as efficient as possible.
A limited company or SPV is an increasingly common structure for landlords looking to manage their tax liability more efficiently. We support landlords with company formation, annual accounts, corporation tax, VAT returns and confirmation statements, alongside practical advice on the tax implications of holding or transferring property within a company.
A growing portfolio brings greater complexity across tax returns, expenses, capital gains and income reporting. We provide structured accounting support, clear management accounts and proactive tax planning to keep your finances organised as your property business scales, including full Making Tax Digital compliance with quarterly reporting built in from the start.
If tax deadlines, compliance concerns or a lack of financial clarity are holding your property business back, speak with Cathy and Wayne today on 01264 598170 or email hello@greenzebraltd.com to find out how our tailored accounting services and ongoing support can be built around the way you manage your property.
Our landlord accountants support property owners with clear advice, practical accounting and dependable ongoing support throughout the year. We help individual landlords, limited company landlords and portfolio investors stay compliant, organised and fully in control of their property finances.

If you are tired of chasing your accountant or feeling unsure about your UK landlord tax obligations, Cathy and Wayne are here to provide the kind of clear, reliable guidance you can genuinely trust.
As dedicated accountants for landlords, we go beyond simply preparing accounts. We actively look for legitimate opportunities to reduce your tax liability, improve your financial visibility and ensure your property business is structured in the most efficient way possible. Whether you are letting property for the first time or managing an established portfolio, we provide specialist tax advice and hands-on support that keeps you firmly in control.
Many landlords pay more tax than necessary simply because they are unaware of what they can legitimately deduct. As part of every tax return, Cathy and Wayne make sure all allowable expenses are correctly applied, which can include letting agent fees, maintenance and repairs, insurance premiums, accountancy fees, utility bills paid by the landlord, ground rent, mortgage interest relief and advertising costs.
The rules around expenses become more complex with multiple properties or limited company structures, and getting it wrong can mean overpaying tax or unwanted attention from HMRC. Call 01264 598170 or email hello@greenzebraltd.com to make sure your expenses are working as hard as they should be.
Not sure whether your rental property expenses are being claimed correctly? Unsure how Making Tax Digital affects you or what your next self assessment tax return needs to include? Feeling like your current accountant does not really understand how letting property works? You are not alone.
Cathy and Wayne understand the real pressures that landlords and property owners face. They work closely with clients to provide clear tax advice, practical accounting solutions and a supportive partnership built firmly around your goals. Whether you are an individual landlord looking for a more efficient approach to your tax affairs or a portfolio landlord in need of structured annual accounts and proactive tax planning, the team at Green Zebra is ready to help.
