FAQs

Is Hammock compliant with Making Tax Digital?

Yes — Hammock supports MTD for Income Tax record-keeping and submissions. Landlord Studio is also HMRC-recognised, with MTD submissions included on its Pro plan (from £12/month) and available at £5 per submission on its free plan.

What is the difference between Hammock and Landlord Studio?

Hammock focuses on landlord bookkeeping: rent monitoring, bank feeds, and tax statements. Landlord Studio covers the same finances plus full property management — tenancy records, rental listings, maintenance tracking, document storage, and rent reminders — so you don't need a second tool to run your portfolio.

How much does Hammock cost?

As of June 2026, Hammock costs £8/month + VAT for 1–3 properties, £15/month for 4–10, £25/month for 11–20, and £31.50/month for 21+, with a discount for annual billing. Landlord Studio is free for up to 3 properties, with Pro from £12/month.

Is there a free alternative to Hammock?

Yes. Landlord Studio's free plan covers up to 3 properties with income and expense tracking, bank feeds, tenancy management, and pay-as-you-go MTD submissions at £5 each — making it the most capable free Hammock alternative for UK landlords.

Does Hammock include property management tools?

No — Hammock is a financial platform. It doesn't offer rental listings, applicant tracking, maintenance management, or tenancy workflows. Landlord Studio includes all of these alongside its MTD-ready accounting, which is why many landlords choose it as an all-in-one Hammock alternative.
