Online accountants vs the high street
A high-street accountant in North London typically bills by the hour, meets by appointment and prices each extra question. Our model inverts that: the fee is fixed and written down before work begins, questions are part of the service rather than billable events, and everything happens online — the reason Finsbury pays the same as everywhere else.
There's no office to fund in Finsbury and no office to visit: records travel through our secure portal or WhatsApp, approvals happen on your phone, and filings go to HMRC and Companies House electronically. You get the same qualified work — minus the overheads, the travel and the surprises on the invoice.

Finsbury freelancer accountants FAQs
How much should I set aside for tax?
A useful rule of thumb is 25–30% of profit for basic-rate sole traders (income tax plus Class 4 NI), more if you're into higher rate. We replace the rule of thumb with your actual number, updated quarterly.
Can I claim my home office?
Yes — either HMRC's flat rate or a calculated share of household costs based on rooms and hours worked. For most full-time freelancers the calculated method claims meaningfully more; we work out which wins for you.
Should I go limited?
Usually worth considering from around £30,000–£40,000 profit, or earlier if clients require it or liability matters. Our Ltd vs sole trader calculator gives a first estimate, and the starter session works through your specific situation.
Do I need to visit an office in Finsbury?
No — there's nothing to visit and nothing to print. We're an online firm: records go through our secure portal or WhatsApp, and everything is filed electronically. It works the same whether you're in Finsbury or anywhere else in North London.
I searched "freelancer accounting near me" — is this service really local to Finsbury?
Finsbury is fully covered, yes. The work is done online, which in practice means more local than an office: same-day replies instead of appointment slots, and the same published fixed fee whether you're in Finsbury town centre or the edge of North London. If you'd rather talk it through first, WhatsApp us — a real person answers.
Who will actually handle my freelancer accounting?
Bohzo Accountants — a trading name of Bohzo Ltd, a registered UK company (No. 15031604). You get a named contact, a fixed fee in writing, and nothing is filed until you've reviewed and approved it.
How do your fixed fees work?
You tell us your situation, we quote one fixed price in writing before any work starts, and that price never changes mid-job. If your case is unusually complex we'll say so up front and agree a different fixed price — but the fee is always agreed before we begin, never after.
The short version of the rules that matter
The July payment on account is the forgotten deadline: no return is due, but money often is. We diary it for every client it applies to, because HMRC charges interest from the day it's late even though nothing was "filed" late.
Company deadlines run off your accounting year end, not the tax year: corporation tax is payable nine months and one day after year end, and the CT600 return is due twelve months after. Confusingly, the payment is due before the return — a sequencing quirk that catches new directors.
MTD for Income Tax starts with the £50,000+ income group in April 2026, with lower bands following. Quarterly digital updates sound worse than they are — with software doing the bookkeeping, the quarters largely take care of themselves.
The first tax bill is the hardest because it can arrive with payments on account attached — up to 150% of the year's tax in one go. New businesses that save a quarter to a third of profits from day one never feel it.
Status under IR35 turns on the reality of the engagement: control, substitution, mutuality of obligation. Contracts matter, but working practices matter more. A written status assessment for each engagement is cheap insurance.
CIS deduction statements go missing constantly — contractors change, emails vanish. HMRC's records can fill some gaps, but the fastest refunds belong to subcontractors who keep every monthly statement. If you're in construction around Finsbury, that one habit is worth real money.
Most self-employed people under-claim. Use of home, mileage at HMRC's approved rates, phone and broadband apportionment, trade subscriptions, training that updates existing skills — legitimate deductions left on the table add up to real tax overpaid year after year.
Ask any prospective accountant two questions: "what's included in the fee?" and "what costs extra?" The quality of those two answers predicts the whole relationship.
General guidance, not personal advice — thresholds and dates change. For advice on your own position in Finsbury, message us and we'll answer against your actual numbers.
