Making Tax Digital for landlords is getting closer, and many landlords tell me they still feel uncertain about what will actually change in practice. The worry is not technology. It is the fear of making mistakes, missing deadlines and losing control of records at a time when everything else in the rental market already feels harder than it used to.
I have agreed to join a live online briefing on MTD specifically for Property118 readers, alongside the team at Landlord Studio and a specialist landlord accountant. The aim is simple: to give you a clear, practical picture of what MTD means for your rental business, and what you can do now so that it feels manageable rather than overwhelming.
Webinar panel
- Mark Alexander, founder of Property118
- Logan Ransley, co-founder and managing director (UK), Landlord Studio
- Specialist landlord accountant from Landlord Studio’s professional network
Why this briefing matters now
MTD is arriving at a time when landlords already face higher costs, tighter lender criteria and increasing regulation. Digital record keeping often gets postponed until HMRC deadlines are dangerously close.
This session is designed for landlords who want to get ahead calmly and practically, without overhauling their entire workflow.
What we will cover
- What MTD really means in practice for landlords
- Which landlords are affected and when
- How MTD fits alongside Self Assessment and existing routines
- What digital record keeping should look like for rental income and expenses
- The common mistakes that lead to penalties
- Live Q&A based on questions from Property118 readers
Why I am personally involved
Many landlords tell me they are not worried about technology itself. They are worried about losing control, being judged by HMRC and having yet another set of rules to cope with.
I am joining this panel to ask the questions landlords ask me every day and to ensure the guidance stays grounded in reality for portfolios of all sizes.
It is a practical briefing for landlords who want clarity and confidence before the rules change.
Who this session is for
- Landlords using spreadsheets or paper records who want to know what needs to change
- Portfolio landlords who already use software and want to sense check their workflows
- Landlords who rely heavily on accountants but want clarity on their own responsibilities
- Anyone who feels behind the curve and wants simple, practical guidance
