Helping accountants prepare landlord clients for MTD

Landlord clients bring a particular challenge under MTD for Income Tax. They often have mixed ownership structures, personal bank accounts, letting agent deductions, repairs, multiple properties, and varying levels of digital confidence.

This session explores how TaxCalc and Hammock can work together to make that process simpler for accountants and their clients.

What the session covers

You’ll see how TaxCalc can help you identify clients with UK property income, build reports for your landlord client base, and create mailing lists so you can contact affected clients at scale.

The session also includes a detailed walkthrough of Hammock, showing how landlords can manage rental income, expenses, bank feeds, agent fees, joint ownership, property-level reporting, and quarterly MTD submissions.

Finally, the webinar explains how TaxCalc fits around the process, including how quarterly submissions made through Hammock or other MTD-compatible software can support the year-end tax return workflow in TaxCalc.

Key takeaways

By watching the session, you’ll learn how to:

  • Identify landlord clients in TaxCalc using Report Manager
  • Segment clients who may be affected by MTD for Income Tax
  • Use Communication Centre to contact landlord clients in bulk
  • Understand how Hammock supports property bookkeeping and quarterly filing
  • Manage joint ownership and mixed property portfolios
  • Support clients who use personal bank accounts or letting agents
  • Understand how quarterly filing data can support the final tax return process in TaxCalc
  • Use TaxCalc’s MTD Quarterly Filer and spreadsheet-based bridging approach where appropriate
  • Explore the What If Planner for tax forecasting and client planning conversations

A smoother route to MTD readiness

The aim is not just to meet the filing requirement. It is to give practices a practical way to prepare, communicate with clients, reduce admin, and keep the end-of-year process as consistent as possible.

Whether your landlord clients use Hammock, another bookkeeping tool, or a spreadsheet-based approach, TaxCalc helps you keep the final tax return process in one familiar place.
