Managing a property portfolio shouldn’t be a full-time administrative job. FreeAgent for Landlords is a specialized version of the award-winning software designed specifically for private landlords. It combines banking and accounting into one intuitive platform, allowing you to track rental income and property expenses with ease.
By integrating this platform into your workflow, you can stop chasing paper receipts and start seeing the true profitability of every property in your portfolio.
The landscape of property management is changing. Starting in April 2026, Making Tax Digital (MTD) rules will require landlords with qualifying income to keep digital records and submit quarterly updates to HMRC using compatible software.
If you have previously managed your rentals via spreadsheets or manual ledgers, the transition is mandatory. FreeAgent provides a highly cost-effective, HMRC-approved solution to help you stay compliant while giving you total control over your financial data.
Property-Specific Tracking: Easily assign income and costs to specific properties to see which units are performing best.
Automated Bank Feeds: Link your rental bank account to automatically import and categorize transactions.
Self-Assessment Simplified: FreeAgent works in the background to calculate your projected tax bill, so you always know what to set aside.
Secure Document Storage: Keep digital copies of safety certificates, insurance policies, and repair receipts linked directly to your properties.
Fully Managed Support: As an SGM client, you don’t have to go it alone. We provide a fully managed service, helping you set up your portfolio and ensuring your quarterly MTD submissions are accurate and timely.
Don’t wait for the April 2026 deadline to scramble for a solution. SGM (formerly David Howard) is ready to help you digitize your portfolio now. Get in touch to find out how our managed FreeAgent service can save you time and protect your peace of mind.
SGM is a Certified Partner for FreeAgent, positioning us as specialists in supporting sole traders, freelancers, and small business owners. This certification ensures that our team is fully trained to help you navigate the platform’s features, from initial setup to advanced tax forecasting.
Landlord-Specific Reporting: Unlike generic accounting tools, this software is built for property. Access specific reports that provide granular control over income and costs for your entire portfolio.
Free for Mettle Users: If you have a business account with Mettle (part of the NatWest Group), FreeAgent is available to you for free for as long as you maintain that account.
Property-Level Profitability: Gain the ability to attribute every cost to a specific property. This allows you to track individual profitability and make data-driven decisions to increase your overall rental yield.
Seamless Bank Integration: Link the platform directly to your personal or business bank accounts. Transactions are imported automatically, making reconciliation and viewing your cash flow easier than ever.
Smarter Expense Management: Categorize expenses by property and digitize your receipts on the go. This creates a secure, searchable archive that meets HMRC standards without the need for physical filing.
Time-Saving Automation: Streamline your workflow with automated invoicing for tenants and recurring billing setups. This ensures you never miss a payment and reduces the time spent on monthly admin.
MTD & Self-Assessment Ready: As we approach the April 2026 MTD deadline, FreeAgent allows you to automatically generate and file VAT returns. For sole trader landlords, it also simplifies the Self-Assessment process, ensuring your filings are fast, accurate, and submitted directly to HMRC.
