Why landlords use RentTaxCheck
Most UK landlords own one or two properties alongside a job or a pension. Since 2017 the rules that apply to them have changed almost every year. Section 24 removed the mortgage interest deduction. Making Tax Digital arrived in April 2026. The Budget of 28 October 2026 then set separate tax rates for rental profit from April 2027, four points above the rates on wages.
Many websites still show the 22%, 42% and 47% rates that were replaced in October. We update every tool within days of an announcement, show the working behind every result, and link to the official source. Read our editorial policy.
Who this is for: individual landlords taxed in England, Wales or Northern Ireland. If you're in Scotland, own through a limited company or live abroad, the rules differ. Each page explains its assumptions.
