Jermyn & Co has been participating in the Eastern Landlords Association (ELA) exhibition for over five years. During that time, we have seen a clear shift in landlords’ concerns, particularly around taxation, compliance, and accounting matters.
It is always a pleasure to see familiar faces returning each year and to have meaningful conversations about the changing tax environment and the challenges landlords are currently facing. We are grateful for the continued support and relationships we have built over the years, and we are proud to be growing alongside our landlord clients and the wider property community.e are glad that we are growing with them.
On last week’s exhibition, we spoke with many landlords about the challenges currently facing the property sector.
One topic came up repeatedly throughout the day: Making Tax Digital (MTD) and the increasing pressure around compliance, record-keeping, and tax reporting.
Many landlords are understandably concerned about:
• how MTD will affect them
• whether they need to change their bookkeeping systems
• quarterly reporting requirements
• rising accountancy and tax pressures
• structuring property portfolios efficiently
It was great to have so many open conversations and provide practical guidance on how landlords can prepare early and avoid unnecessary stress later on.
As accountants, we believe good advice should simplify things — not make them more complicated.
A big thank you to everyone who visited our stand and took the time to speak with us. We truly enjoyed meeting so many landlords, investors, and property professionals.
