No. Rentila does not appear on HMRC's list of recognised Making Tax Digital software, so it cannot submit the quarterly updates or final declaration that MTD for Income Tax requires. Its own blog frames MTD as a reason to keep good digital records and export financial data, not as something it files for you. Landlord Studio is HMRC-recognised, with MTD submissions included on its Pro plan (from £12/month billed annually) and available at £5 per submission on its free plan.
Landlord Studio is a leading Rentila alternative for landlords who need Making Tax Digital compliance. It combines HMRC-recognised MTD accounting with property management, including per-property income and expense tracking, bank feeds, receipt scanning, mileage tracking, tenancy records, rent reminders and maintenance tracking, and is free for up to 3 properties.
As of July 2026, Rentila is free for 1 unit, with Silver at £4.90/month plus VAT or £49/year for 2 to 5 units, and Gold at £9.90/month plus VAT or £99/year for unlimited units. Landlord Studio is free for up to 3 properties, with Pro from £12/month billed annually (£15 monthly) including MTD submissions, bank feeds and receipt scanning. Rentila is cheaper at the unlimited-unit end; Landlord Studio includes HMRC filing, which Rentila cannot do at any price.
Rentila offers basic bookkeeping to record income and expenses, plus a balance summary to help you prepare an annual return. It does not compute tax, handle Section 24 mortgage interest relief or joint-ownership splits, and it does not file under Making Tax Digital. Landlord Studio provides per-property accounting, HMRC-ready reports and direct MTD submissions, so your books and your tax filing live in one place.
Yes. Import your income and expense history into Landlord Studio via CSV, connect your bank accounts, and you can be set up in minutes. A 14-day free trial of Pro is included with no credit card required, and the free plan covering up to 3 properties has no time limit.
