Accountants for landlords who answer the phone and agree the fee first

Accountants for landlords usually get called in January, when the agent statements, the mortgage figures and the bank do not line up and the return is due.

Most landlords we meet find out what they owe when the bill lands. We agree your fixed fee in writing before any work starts, calls and emails are never charged, and tax investigation cover is included free for every client.

In one lineSupreme Consultants is an AAT licensed accountancy practice in Cardiff Bay that handles rental bookkeeping, Self Assessment, property company accounts and HMRC correspondence for landlords across South Wales. Work is done on a fixed fee agreed in writing before it starts, and tax investigation cover is included free for every client.

Is your property income in good hands? Three questions.

Answer with the buttons and you get a result on the page.

Question 1 of 3

Does your accountant reply the same working day when you email about a property?

What you get

Tax investigation cover included free

If HMRC opens an enquiry into your rental income, we deal with it and you pay us nothing extra. Every HMRC investigation we have handled, we have won.

A fee you know before we start

The fee is agreed in writing first. Ring us about an agent statement, a new tenancy or a letting agent invoice and it costs nothing.

Every property deadline mapped

In the first month we go through your past returns and HMRC records. One client owed around £20,000 across Corporation Tax, VAT and Self Assessment; much of it was payments on account built on estimates, so we filed early, that part was cancelled and HMRC wrote off the interest.

What landlords tell us when they ring

These are the three things we hear most often on a first call.

  • “My agent sends statements, the bank shows net rent, and I still cannot tell you what my profit is.”

    He had claimed nothing for the agent’s fees on two flats for two years.

  • “I only hear from my accountant once a year, and every phone call ends up on an invoice.”

    He stopped asking questions, so a second property went on the wrong name for a whole tax year.

  • “A letter came from HMRC about my rental income and nobody has explained what it means.”

    The letter sat in a drawer for six weeks and the deadline on it passed.

  • What changes once we take it on

    Your rent, mortgage interest and agent fees go into cloud software month by month. You get your figures before the deadline, with time to decide how you pay yourself. When HMRC writes, you send it to us and we answer it.

How this compares with a once-a-year return

Plenty of landlords use a once-a-year accountant and it works until something happens.

The usual once-a-year arrangement

You hear from them in December or January.

The fee moves when the work turns out to be bigger.

A ten minute call appears on the invoice.

An HMRC enquiry is quoted for separately.

With Supreme Consultants

A reply the same working day, all year.

A fixed fee agreed in writing before we start.

Calls, meetings and emails are never charged.

Tax investigation cover is included free for every client.

Eight questions about your property set-up

A yes means it is covered already.

  • Do you know your rental profit before the January deadline?

    We give you the figure months early so you can plan the payment.

  • Are your agent statements reconciled to your bank each month?

    We put them into cloud software as the rent comes in.

  • Is mortgage interest treated correctly on your return?

    We check how it has been handled in your past returns.

  • Do you know whether your payments on account are set too high?

    We look at this in the first month and file early where it helps.

  • Would your accountant answer an HMRC letter at no extra cost?

    Tax investigation cover is included free for every client here.

  • Do you get a reply the same working day?

    If the answer needs longer, we still come back that day to say when.

  • Is your fee fixed for the year ahead?

    Ours is agreed in writing before any work starts.

  • If you buy another property, does anyone tell you how to hold it?

    We go through company or personal ownership with you before you commit.

Clients described by type. Names withheld.

£300 to £1,000a year is what other firms charge for the same cover as an extra

I just want to say a big thank you to Mudassir for all the advice, guidance and help he has provided whilst dealing with my accounts and tax returns. From start to finish the service has been excellent and professional. Unlike other accountancy firms they provide a friendly personalised service, I was very clear on the process and was even provided with additional guidance where needed. Highly recommended!

How switching to us works

Four steps, and you never have to ring your old accountant.

  1. Before you join

    Your fee agreed in writing

    You answer a few questions on the site. Mudassir reads them and replies the same working day, and if we are a fit we agree your fixed fee before any work starts.

  2. Week one

    Records moved across for you

    We complete your ID checks and write to your current accountant for your records. HMRC and Companies House authorise us as your agent.

  3. First month

    Old returns and HMRC records checked

    We go through your past accounts, returns and HMRC records. This is where unclaimed reliefs, payments on account set too high and penalties worth appealing turn up.

  4. By ninety days

    You know what is coming up

    We sit down with you on how you pay yourself and on your bookkeeping set-up, and every deadline for the year is mapped.

Free handoverFree first monthFree move to XeroFree Companies House ID verification

Who we are not right for

We do not take CIS construction subcontractor work.

We do not do charity accounts.

We do not take on businesses already late in an HMRC investigation.

If you are outside those, start the check and we will tell you the same working day whether we can help.

Accountants for landlords: questions people ask

What do accountants for landlords charge?

We work on a fixed fee agreed in writing before any work starts, based on how many properties you have, how they are held and what state the records are in. Calls, meetings and emails are never charged on top. You will know the figure before you commit to anything, and it does not move during the year.

Can you take over from my current accountant?

Yes. We write to them for your records so you do not have to make that call, complete your ID checks and get authorised as your agent with HMRC and Companies House. The handover is done for you with no separate charge, and the first month is free. Most landlords switch without speaking to their old firm at all.

What happens if HMRC writes to me about my rental income?

You send the letter to us and we deal with HMRC for you. Tax investigation cover is included free for every client, where other firms sell it as an add-on for £300 to £1,000 a year. Every HMRC investigation we have handled, we have won. We cannot promise an outcome, but you will not get a separate bill from us for handling it.

Do I have to change my software?

No. If your records are on a spreadsheet or in another package we can work with that. If you want to move to Xero we do the migration free, set up the bank feeds and show you how to code rent and agent fees. The decision is yours and nothing changes until you say so.

Will you do a one-off tax return for my rental income?

No. We do not take one-off Self Assessment or capital gains returns with nothing ongoing, and we do not take on cases already late in an HMRC investigation. We prepare Self Assessment for landlords and directors who are ongoing clients, because that is where we can check the past returns and the deadlines as well.

Do you work with landlords outside Cardiff?

Yes. Over 90 per cent of our clients are in South Wales, so Cardiff first, then Newport, Swansea, Caerphilly, Barry and Port Talbot, with Bristol over the bridge. Work is done remotely, in person at Titan House in Cardiff Bay, or a mix of the two. Your properties can be anywhere in the UK.
