A compliance retainer for property business owners and investors who want peace of mind, proactive financial oversight and a fully qualified Chartered Accountant genuinely invested in their success — with 20 years of experience and the credentials to match.
Late filings, missed deadlines, corporation tax surprises — compliance is the area most property owners feel least equipped to manage. Whether you have one property or ten, someone senior needs to be watching the numbers before things go wrong. If you're just starting out, you shouldn't have to figure this out alone.
Most accountants file your numbers and send a bill. A senior finance advisor reads them, explains what they mean, asks the hard questions and helps you act — before problems arise. There's a real difference between having your accounts done and genuinely understanding your financial position.
Running a property business means wearing many hats. The financial and compliance obligations that come with a limited company — Companies House, HMRC, corporation tax, year-end accounts — are significant. You need someone whose job it is to stay ahead of all of it, so you don't have to.
Both are delivered personally by a fully qualified Fellow Chartered Accountant with 20 years of experience. Choose the level of support that fits where your property business is right now.
Think of it as having a highly qualified financial expert — part accountant, part trusted advisor — working alongside your property business. They handle your compliance obligations, keep your records accurate, ensure you're never caught out by a deadline and give you the financial clarity to make better decisions about your portfolio. The expertise of a senior hire, without the full-time cost.
Everything your property company is legally required to have — done properly, on time, every year, by a Fellow Chartered Accountant.
A personally tailored service — built around your property business, not a template. Everything in Essential Compliance, plus the ongoing oversight, reporting and professional access that come with having a senior finance partner genuinely invested in your growth.
Taking your first step into property investment is a big deal. The excitement is real — and so is the financial complexity that comes with it. Limited company obligations, corporation tax, year-end accounts — it can feel overwhelming fast.

Our goal isn't just to get it done. It's to leave you more confident, more informed, and more in control.
