Does this sound like you?
- You are a landlord with one or two properties, self-assessing, and your gross rental income is at or near £50,000.
- You have seen the 7 November 2026 deadline coming and you are not sure what you are supposed to do between now and then.
- You do not want to pay an accountant £400–£600 a year just to file quarterly updates, but you are worried about doing it wrong.
- You have looked at Xero or QuickBooks and thought: "This feels like overkill for two properties."
- You are not looking for tax advice. You are looking for a clear process so you stop guessing.
What you get
1. The MTD Readiness Checklist (PDF)
A step-by-step list of what to set up, what to record, and what to ignore—written for a landlord, not an accountant. Covers: confirming your qualifying income, understanding what a "digital record" actually means, linking your bank account, and choosing software without being oversold.
2. The One-Page Quarterly Deadline Calendar (PDF)
The four filing dates, the record-keeping window for each quarter, and a simple RAG (red/amber/green) status box so you can see at a glance whether you are on track.
3. The Digital Record Template (Spreadsheet)
A pre-formatted income-and-expenses tracker that maps to the categories HMRC expects, with instructions on how to move the data into HMRC-recognised software when you are ready to file.
4. A 10-minute "what to do this week" action plan
The three things to do in the next seven days, ranked by urgency, so you are not paralysed by the full list.
What this is not
Not tax advice.
We do not tell you what is deductible or how much tax to pay. We tell you what to record and when to file.
Not software.
You still need HMRC-recognised software to submit your quarterly updates. We tell you what to put into it, and how to choose it without overpaying.
Not a course.
No videos to watch, no modules to complete. A checklist, a calendar, and a template you can use today.
FAQ
Is this enough to comply with MTD?
It gives you the process and the records. You will still need HMRC-recognised software to submit. The kit tells you exactly what to do with that software and when.
I already have an accountant. Is this still useful?
Yes. Most accountants handle the year-end return, not the quarterly rhythm. The kit helps you organise your records so your accountant charges you less, or so you can handle the quarterly updates yourself.
What if I miss the 7 November deadline?
HMRC has confirmed a soft landing for penalty points in 2026/27, but the legal requirement to keep digital records started on 6 April 2026. The kit is about getting the process in place now so you are not relying on the soft landing.
