Income tax set to rise to up to 47% in 2027: Here’s how to take action before the end of the year

With Christmas just around the corner, it’s understandable that many of us are ready to close up shop and leave today’s problems until the New Year.

But with just 2 weeks to go, and the news that there might be many more hits to landlords following the Renters’ Rights Act in May, there’s still plenty of time to act to make sure you’re all set to down tools knowing you did everything you could to get in the best position for the changes next year.

Why? As Adrian Moloney from The Intermediary reports, if you thought the Renters’ Rights Act was the last blow for landlords, enter income tax rises. “From April 2027, the property basic rate will be 22%, the property higher rate will be 42%, and the property additional rate will be 47%” he writes, “the impact of these increases, together with the changes enacted through the Renters’ Rights Act 2025, are on the back of previous increases in Stamp Duty and restriction of mortgage interest relief.

This could lead to further pressure on both existing and, potentially, new landlords.” The silver lining is that this early warning allows us to be fully prepared.

With thousands of landlords looking to sell before May 2026, and many considering downsizing to more manageable portfolio sizes, this is a clear signal that it’ll pay to act sooner rather than later if you’re thinking of selling.

So what can landlords do in the 2 weeks before Christmas? The simple answer is: get ahead of the curve and start your selling process now.

Landlord Sales Agency, known for being the top UK exit portfolio company is providing that exact solution.

No matter what property and what condition, we have a private database of over 30,000 buyers, the top property buying companies, private funds and first time buyers that we market your properties to, generate a bidding war that pushes your properties to the highest prices. What’s more, we manage the entire process for you.

This isn’t about selling before Christmas, it’s about getting your properties on the market now, so while you’re relaxing over the holidays, we’re doing the hard work to get your properties sold.

We have a 100% success rate in selling tenanted buy-to-let houses and a solid network of solicitors who can help with evictions, paying tenants to move out, or raising rents to make properties more appealing to buyers.

All our properties sell on average in just 28 days for up to 90% market value and for that we cover all the costs and take away all the hassle that comes with selling the portfolio. We’re also completely transparent, so you know exactly what we’re making.

With so many changes affecting landlords on the horizon, it pays to act fast.

Landlords who contact us today, can start the ball rolling, meaning come January you’ll already be ahead of the game when it comes to your properties being sold.
