About RentalBux
Written by the company
RentalBux: MTD Software for Landlords. And Self-Employed. One Platform.
RentalBux is HMRC-recognised Making Tax Digital (MTD) software designed specifically for UK landlords, including those with self-employment income. We built it inside a UK accountancy practice that manages thousands of landlord clients. Not a tech company guessing what landlords and accountants need.
Everything free until 31 August 2026. No credit card. No commitment. Submit your first MTD return without paying a thing.
HMRC recognition across all three MTD ITSA income types
RentalBux is recognised by HMRC for UK property, foreign property, and self-employment. At the time of writing, none of the major cloud accounting platforms hold HMRC recognition for foreign property income under MTD. One doesn't cover property income at all. If you have foreign property, RentalBux is the MTD filing pathway.
Property accounting built in, not bolted on
Automated joint ownership profit splits across any ratio. Section 24 finance cost restriction handled at point of entry. Letting agent statement imports, foreign property support, tenancy management, and property-level reporting. These aren't workarounds, they're built into the data model.
For landlords
Automated bank feeds, smart expense categorisation, receipt capture, and quarterly MTD submissions direct to HMRC. All from one platform. Plans start free for single-property landlords, with multi-property plans from £4.50+VAT per month (all plans free until 31 August 2026).
For accountants
A dedicated accountant dashboard with practice-wide visibility across your entire MTD client base. Bulk information requests, deadline tracking, client approval workflows, and HMRC filing from one screen. Partner programme with discounts and free practice subscriptions.
Everything free until 31 August 2026

Software Not Ready
There were some glaring errors in the RentalBux website, which I informed RentalBux about whilst I was looking for suitable software. I received an honest and candid response, with promises of future upgrades to eliminate the known bugs.
I therefore proceeded with a free trial, fully intending to continue with RentalBux.
However I found the wording of their forms imprecise, which lead to some uncertainty with how and what information to enter.
After entering details of the properties, I moved on to entering the tenancies. However, due to a mistake of mine, I missed entering a deposit that had been taken on the first property. I became aware of this when I entered the deposit on the second property and realised that I had not done so on the first.
The software would not allow the deposit to be added after, and the only remedy was to terminate the tenancy and wait a month before I could re-enter the details all over again.
When I next looked at my account dashboard, intending to carry on the trial with just one property, I was surprised to find that no tenancies were even registered. I thought that by some stroke luck, I had been saved from having to wait a month and could re-enter both tenancies and start again immediately.
However when I opened the tenancy section of the form, I found that both tenancies were still there, only this time the tenancy against which I had entered a deposit was showing that there was no deposit.
I now have no option to wait a full month before I can use the software.

Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed account of your experience, Bruce, and for being candid about both the positives and the frustrations along the way.
We are genuinely glad our initial response to your early feedback was candid. We want our user to have a transparency about our platform, which is something we take seriously. We are sorry, however, that the tenancy deposit workflow created such a frustrating obstacle during your trial. You have described the issue clearly, and we want to be equally clear in response: the inability to edit a deposit record once a tenancy is active is a known limitation, and the one-month wait arises from how tenancy cycles are currently managed within the platform. This is not the experience we want for landlords who are taking time to properly evaluate the software.
We would very much like to speak with you directly to understand whether our team can help you work through this specific setup and get your tenancies entered correctly without further delay. Please do get in touch at info@rentalbux.com or call us on +44 20 4591 1941 — we will make it a priority.

The meeting was absolutely brilliant. Aayoush had the patience of a saint and went through step by step with me what I needed to do and was prepared to go over it as many times as I needed to become confident to use the RentalBux software on my own.

Thank you so much for this truly lovely review, Deborah — the patience of a saint is an extraordinarily kind thing to say and it genuinely made the whole team smile!
Building confidence to use the platform independently is always the goal — going over things as many times as needed until it truly clicks is never too much trouble, and it is so rewarding to hear that approach made such a difference for you. That is exactly the kind of outcome we work towards with every client.
Our team will be absolutely delighted to read your kind words and we will make sure they are passed on. Please do not hesitate to reach out whenever you need us — we are always here to help!

New to this! Simple spreadsheet
The spreadsheet is simple to use.
Not al columns of figures line up, but the balance is correct so not a huge issue … but not great for my own OCD. Need to figure out how to correct … but that’s a me problem.
On submission the app didn’t recognise rental income, only “other income”. I literally changed everything to other income just to submit on time!! Better wrong than late was my thought process. My accountant can sort out any issues at the end of the tax year I hope.

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a detailed and honest review, Jo — and we are glad you managed to get your submission in on time. That pragmatic approach under pressure is completely understandable, but we do want to make sure things are set up correctly ahead of your Q2 submission.
We would like to address both points you raised directly:
The column alignment issue in the spreadsheet is something we would like to look into for you — if the balance is correct it is likely a display formatting matter, but we would rather confirm that properly than leave it unresolved.
More importantly, the rental income being categorised as "other income" rather than recognised correctly is something we would strongly encourage you to let us look at before your next submission. Submitting with the wrong income category is not ideal and whilst your accountant will be able to address it at year end, it is worth getting the ledger mapping set up correctly now so that Q2 and beyond are accurate from the outset.
Please do reach out to us at info@rentalbux.com or call us on +44 20 4591 1941 and we will arrange a short session to get both of these resolved for you properly — completely free of charge.

I have given 5-stars only because…
I have given 5-stars only because Sebika Shrestha was great and I would not mark her any lower. She was clear, patient, and kept her promises to follow up quickly. She should be promoted. I am much less enthusiastic about the Rentalbux software which was, at best, meh. Maybe 3-stars. The software itself is not self-explanatory and the explanatory videos and internal AI guidance did not answer my questions. Indeed, the internal AI material was out of date. I was only able to submit my first quarterly return on time thanks to face-to-face help online from Sebika who straightened out at least three problems that the Rentalbux guidance did not: manual entry of data, not from a bank account; categorisation of entries; correct apportionment of my share of property income and expenses. And to make wider use of Rentalbux, I feel I will still need continuing personal help.

Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed and candid review, Adam — this is exactly the kind of feedback that helps us improve, and we are genuinely grateful for it.
We are absolutely delighted to hear that Sebika's support made such a difference — clear, patient, keeping her promises and resolving multiple blockers to get your first quarterly submission over the line is precisely the standard we aspire to. She will be very touched to read your words, and we will make sure she sees them.
On the software feedback, we hear you and we want to be honest in return. You have identified three specific areas — manual data entry guidance, transaction categorisation, and property income apportionment — where our in-app help materials and AI guidance did not give you the answers you needed. That is a fair and specific criticism, and it is directly useful for our product team. We are actively working on improving the self-service resources within the platform, including updating guidance materials that have fallen behind, and your feedback will be shared with the team.
We also take your point about needing continuing personal support seriously. Whilst we will always have our team available to help, we want the platform itself to be far more self-explanatory over time — and reviews like yours show us clearly where the gaps are.
Thank you again, Adam. Please do not hesitate to reach out whenever you need us — we remain committed to making your experience better with every quarter.
