The moment you pass £230,000 in revenue, HMRC slaps you with a jump in VAT flat rate
from 10% to 20%. That’s a £27,500+ extra tax bill for doing well. Ouch.
But here’s what we’re doing about it (and how you can prep too):
✅ Tightened our bookkeeping – weekly check-ins, not monthly surprises
✅ Split income streams – separating management fees, cleaning, and maintenance
✅ Registered properties under separate entities (where viable)
✅ Exploring corporate lets and longer stays to reduce platform fees
✅ Reviewed pricing strategy to absorb VAT without scaring off guests
Growth sounds sexy until the bills catch up. But every level has a tax. Literally.
