Will a New “National Insurance” on Rental Income Mark the End of the Private Rented Sector?

In Brief
A newly floated proposal in advance of the 2025 Autumn Budget suggests that landlords may soon be liable to pay National Insurance contributions on their rental income—potentially raising around £2 billion for the Chancellor’s coffers.
Why It Matters
Property already stands as one of the least tax-efficient investments and NI on rental profits is very likely going to push more small scale landlords out of the PRS with analysts estimating that at 8%, some landlords could owe up to £885 per property annually.
For Landlords Who’ve Reached the Limit—There’s a Way Out
If you’re a landlord tired of mounting regulation, relentless taxes, and ever-escalating uncertainty in the rental market, it might be time to consider a professional exit. That’s where Landlord Sales Agency steps in.
Why Landlord Sales Agency Should Be Your Choice:
- Speed & Certainty: Sell your portfolio in weeks—not months, often securing 85–90 % of market value.
- Minimal Hassle: Portfolios are sold “as-is”, regardless of condition, with tenants often retained to avoid disruptions.
- Expert Handling: They engage directly with tenants, manage legal and financial complexities, and offer interest-free cash advances (e.g. up to £20,000) to provide liquidity before completion.
