MTD is coming. You shouldn’t have to figure it out alone.

From April 2026, HMRC requires landlords earning over £50,000 in rental income to keep digital records and submit quarterly updates. That means four tax submissions a year instead of one annual Self Assessment.

For most landlords with a letting agent, the challenge is obvious: your agent already records your rent, fees, and expenses. But MTD requires you to file that information digitally with HMRC, which usually means re-entering figures into separate software, matching transactions, and hoping nothing falls through the cracks.

That’s the problem Nexus was built to solve.

Your agent’s data, your portal, straight to HMRC.

Nexus is an MTD compliance tool built specifically for landlords who use a letting agent. It connects the transaction data your agent already records, rent payments, management fees, maintenance costs, into a secure portal you control.

From that portal, you (or your accountant) review the figures, manage allowable expenses, and submit quarterly updates directly to HMRC. All without re-entering a single number.

Data flows in automatically

Rent, expenses, and ownership data already recorded by your agent flow into Nexus. No manual entry, no reconciliation, no chasing statements.

Review and adjust with confidence

See your property finances clearly in one place. Add allowable expenses, review categories, and make adjustments before submitting. Digital records are stored compliantly throughout.

Submit to HMRC in a few clicks

When it’s time to file, submit your quarterly MTD update directly to HMRC from Nexus. Your accountant can access the same platform and submit on your behalf if you prefer.

How Nexus works for Landlords

Four steps. Minimal effort. Full compliance.

01.

Your letting agent enables Nexus

Your agent activates Nexus within their existing platform. There’s nothing for you to install or configure.

02.

You accept the invitation

You’ll receive an invite to activate your Nexus account. Accept it, and your subscription is automatically recorded as an allowable expense.

03.

Your data flows automatically

Rent payments, expenses, and ownership details your agent already records flow into Nexus. No re-entry, no reconciliation.

04.

Review and submit to HMRC

Each quarter, review your figures in Nexus, make any adjustments, and submit directly to HMRC. If you work with an accountant, they can handle this step for you.

Built around the data your agent already manages.

Joint ownership handled automatically

If you co-own a property, Nexus handles percentage allocation automatically for correct MTD filing. No manual splitting, no separate calculations.

No double handling

Your agent records rent, fees, and expenses as part of managing your property. Nexus uses that same data for your MTD submissions, so you never re-enter figures into a second system. That means fewer errors and fewer questions bouncing back to your agent.

Compliant digital records, stored securely in one place

MTD requires you to maintain digital records. Nexus stores your records compliantly, so you always have a clear audit trail without managing files yourself.

Ready to take MTD off your plate?

Technically, yes. HMRC permits spreadsheets. But there’s a catch: spreadsheets must be connected to MTD-recognised bridging software to submit your quarterly updates, and you must maintain strict digital links throughout. You cannot copy, paste, or retype figures once they’re part of the MTD process.

In practice, that means you still need separate software, your categories usually need re-matching each quarter, and any corrections must go back to the original spreadsheet before being re-exported and re-submitted.

Nexus removes that complexity. Transactions flow in from your agent. Digital records are stored compliantly. You review, adjust if needed, and submit directly to HMRC, all from one platform. No exports, no imports, no bridges.

FAQs

What is Making Tax Digital, and does it affect me?

Making Tax Digital for Income Tax (MTD for ITSA) is HMRC’s initiative requiring landlords with rental income over £50,000 to keep digital records and submit quarterly updates. It replaces the traditional annual Self Assessment with four digital submissions per year. It becomes mandatory from April 2026, with lower thresholds phased in after that. Landlords who don’t comply face potential penalties.

Can landlords sign up to Nexus directly? Is it the same as Landlord Studio?

No. Nexus is a separate product built specifically for letting agents to support Making Tax Digital.

Nexus is only available through participating letting agents and is activated inside the agent’s existing CRM or rent collection platform. Landlords cannot sign up to Nexus directly, and Nexus does not replace agent systems or services.

Landlord Studio and Nexus serve different use cases. Nexus exists to help agents support landlord MTD submissions using agent-held data, without changing how agents or accountants work.

Can I sign up to Nexus directly?

No. Nexus is only available through participating letting agents. It’s activated inside your agent’s existing platform. If your agent hasn’t mentioned Nexus yet, ask them about it, they can enable it for you.

I already have an accountant. Does Nexus replace them?

Not at all. Nexus is designed to make your accountant’s job easier. You can invite your accountant to access Nexus through a dedicated portal, where they can review transactions, make adjustments, and submit quarterly updates to HMRC on your behalf. Most accountants welcome it because it replaces the manual data entry from paper statements.

What’s included in the monthly subscription?

The monthly fee covers unlimited transaction processing, automated expense categorisation, HMRC quarterly report generation and submission, UK-based customer support, and automatic software updates including new MTD compliance features. No hidden fees or usage limits.

I own a property jointly. Can Nexus handle that?

Yes. Nexus handles joint ownership automatically with percentage allocation, so each owner’s MTD filing reflects the correct split. No manual calculations needed.

Is Nexus the same as Landlord Studio?

No. Nexus is a separate product built specifically for letting agents to support Making Tax Digital. Landlord Studio is a standalone property management platform for self-managing landlords. Nexus exists to help agent-managed landlords meet MTD requirements using the data their agent already holds.
