Fixed-fee accountancy for landlords, freelancers, tradespeople and small companies, from Brunswick Terrace, Hove
Fitzpatrick Co is an accountancy practice at 42 Brunswick Terrace, Hove BN3 1HA. We work with self-employed people, landlords, tradespeople, freelancers and small limited companies across Hove, Brighton and the surrounding towns.
The practice is run by James Fitzpatrick, who holds AAT licensing. You deal with the person doing your work, not a call centre, and you get a fixed monthly fee before you sign up.
From April 2026, Making Tax Digital for Income Tax applies to sole traders and landlords with qualifying income over £50,000. The threshold drops to £30,000 from April 2027 and £20,000 from April 2028. Qualifying income is gross self-employment turnover plus gross property income, before expenses. Salary and dividends do not count.
If you are near a threshold, it is worth knowing which tax year HMRC will test. We check that for you and set up compatible software so quarterly updates are not a scramble. Our qualifying income guide has worked examples.
We work with people in Hove, Brighton, Portslade and Shoreham, and because most of the work is done online, location rarely matters. If you are elsewhere in Sussex, just ask. You can call 07534 476727, email info@fitzpatrickco.uk or message on WhatsApp.
