| 1 property — rental accounts + tax return | £149 |
| 2–4 properties | £199 |

Online accountants vs the high street
Traditional firms around South East still run on hourly billing, office appointments and fees you discover after the work. 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 Braintree pays the same as everywhere else.
There's no office to fund in Braintree 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.

Braintree landlord & property tax FAQs
How does mortgage interest relief work now?
Under Section 24 you can't deduct mortgage interest from rental profits — instead you get a 20% tax credit. Higher-rate landlords pay noticeably more than under the old rules, which is why the sums (and the company question) deserve proper attention.
Should I hold my properties in a limited company?
Sometimes. Companies deduct interest in full and pay corporation tax rates, but you face costs extracting profits and potentially CGT/SDLT moving existing properties in. We'll run your actual numbers — the honest answer is 'it depends', and we'll show you on what.
What expenses can landlords claim?
Repairs and maintenance (not improvements), agent fees, insurance, ground rent, utilities you pay, advertising, accountancy, and travel for property management. The repairs-versus-improvements line is where most mistakes happen — we police it carefully.
Do I need to visit an office in Braintree?
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 Braintree or anywhere else in South East.
I searched "landlord tax near me" — is this service really local to Braintree?
Braintree 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 Braintree town centre or the edge of South East. If you'd rather talk it through first, WhatsApp us — a real person answers.
Who will actually handle my landlord tax?
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.
Tax notes our Braintree clients ask about most
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.
Every year a wave of returns gets filed in the final days of January. It works, but it's the most expensive way to do it: no time to check for missed reliefs, and any tax due lands as one surprise. Sending your records early — even unsorted — is the single best gift you can give your January self.
The capital gains annual exempt amount has shrunk to £3,000, which pulls far more ordinary disposals — shares, crypto, second properties — into reporting territory. Gains that once fell under the allowance now need a return, even when the tax due is modest.
First-year traders around Braintree tend to make the same three mistakes: registering late, mixing business and personal spending in one account, and saving nothing for the first tax bill. All three are avoidable in an afternoon of setup.
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 Braintree, that one habit is worth real money.
Good records aren't about neatness — they're about money: claims you can evidence, VAT you can reclaim, and an accountant who spends billable time on advice rather than sorting. Bank feeds plus a receipts app gets most small businesses to "tidy" in minutes a week.
A limited company juggles two regulators: Companies House wants accounts within nine months of year end, HMRC wants corporation tax paid at nine months and a day. Same starting point, different documents — and late filing penalties at Companies House escalate automatically and are rarely cancelled.
The best salary-dividend mix moves with each year's thresholds and your other income. Setting it once in April — rather than guessing through the year — is one of the simplest pieces of planning a director can do.
General guidance, not personal advice — thresholds and dates change. For advice on your own position in Braintree, message us and we'll answer against your actual numbers.
