Rental income from land and buildings will be taxed separately under a new property tax regime, with rates set at:

• 22% property basic rate
• 42% property higher rate
• 47% property additional rate

Mortgage interest relief for unincorporated landlords will also be fixed at the new 22% property basic rate, replacing the current system.

There are growing concerns about the knock-on impact a 2% rise may have on tenants, particularly if more landlords choose to leave the rental market. The changes will apply across England, Wales and Northern Ireland, and are expected to raise £600 million per year, affecting hundreds of thousands of landlords nationwide.
