Register a limited company as a landlord
Setting up a limited company for your rental property could save you a lot of money
The company becomes the official owner of the property, which means you don't have to pay income tax on the money you make from renting it.
Instead you’ll pay corporation tax (currently 25%). So if you fall into the 40% tax bracket, registering a limited company could be a much more tax-efficient alternative

Landlords: the benefits of registering as a LTD company
The benefits to operating as a limited company
Corporation Tax
You pay Corporation Tax (25% for profits up to £50,000 a year) rather than personal income tax, which usually means saving a lot on taxes
Protected assets
Protect your personal assets. As a LTD company, a landlord’s liability is limited to the amount they’ve invested into the property
Tax efficiency
Mortgage interest can be offset against your income, which can mean less taxable profits – and less taxes to pay
Section 24
Landlords operating through a limited company aren’t subject to Section 24 of the Finance Act 2015, so they can offset 100% of their mortgage interest against profits

Why ANNA?
ANNA has been helping small businesses since 2017 and we now have over 100,000 happy customers across the UK – maybe that’s why our TrustPilot rating is 4.5.
We’ve found that most business accounts don’t provide landlords with all the tools and support they need, and that specialist landlord software often ignores the fact that many landlords also have other income sources that need to be factored into the tax they pay.
ANNA understands the needs of landlords, whether they own one flat they rent out at weekends, or have a larger portfolio of properties for long-term rent.
