How to use it

A quick estimate, without the spreadsheet.

Inputs and units

Enter annual residential rent, allowable operating expenses excluding mortgage finance costs, eligible interest/finance costs, other annual non-savings income and tax region.

Formula

Compute total income tax with rental profit, apply eligible finance-cost relief, and subtract income tax on other income alone. Finance relief cannot exceed total income tax.

Worked example

£18,000 rent minus £3,000 operating costs gives £15,000 taxable property profit before finance-cost relief.

Assumptions and limitations

For April 6, 2026–April 5, 2027. Individual resident landlords with non-savings income only. Does not apply the property allowance, losses, earlier finance-cost carry-forwards, savings/dividend rules, NI, companies or overseas arrangements. Enter only qualifying costs; capital repayments are not interest.
