Airbnb accountants in Cardiff who reply the same working day
Airbnb accountants in Cardiff are what most hosts start looking for once a second listing goes live and the income no longer fits on one page of a return.
Plenty of hosts come to us after a letter from HMRC about rental income, or after a January deadline went past. Tax investigation cover is included free for every client, and every HMRC investigation we have handled, we have won.
In one lineSupreme Consultants is an AAT licensed accountancy practice in Cardiff Bay that handles self assessment, bookkeeping, VAT and company filings for Airbnb and short let hosts across Cardiff and South Wales. Fees are fixed and agreed in writing before work starts, and tax investigation cover is included for every client.
Check we’re the right fit
A few questions about your business. Mudassir replies the same working day.
Thank you Mud, your help and support with my VAT return is greatly appreciated. Always a prompt response and my difficult VAT return was quickly submitted and resolved. Would definitely recommend.
Is your Airbnb income in good hands? Three questions.
Answer by button, no email needed.
Question 1 of 3
Does your accountant reply the same working day?
Do you know your fee will not change this year?
If HMRC wrote tomorrow, would they deal with it at no extra cost?
Three noes means nobody is really holding your letting income, and the gap tends to show up as a late return or an unexplained bill. Run the check and we will tell you what we would do first.
Start the checkYou are in a reasonable position, so this is about the one piece that is loose. Run the check and we will look at that piece with you.
Start the checkYour set-up is being looked after properly and there is no reason to move. Read the guides if you want a second view on how letting income is reported.
Read the guidesWhat you get
HMRC cover included at no charge
Tax investigation cover comes free with every client we act for. If HMRC opens a check into your letting income, we deal with them.
A fee you know before we start
We agree a fixed fee in writing before any work begins. Calls, meetings and emails are never added to it.
Every letting deadline in the diary
Self assessment, VAT if your takings cross the threshold, and company filings if the properties sit in a company. All mapped for the year ahead.
What hosts tell us when they ring
These are the three things we hear most from Cardiff hosts in their first call.
“I let two flats in the Bay and I have no idea what I can claim against the income.”
Guesswork here usually means claiming too little all year. The rest of the time it means claiming something that will not stand up when HMRC asks.
“A letter came from HMRC about my rental income and my accountant still has not called me back.”
A week of silence turns a routine query into a deadline you have already missed.
“I got invoiced for a ten minute phone call, so now I just do not ring him.”
The small questions are where the money gets saved. Sitting on them costs more than the call ever would.
What changes once we take it on
We get appointed as your agent with HMRC and read back through your past returns. Deadlines go in the diary for the year ahead, and you get a reply the same working day when you ring. Tax investigation cover is included at no charge.
How we differ from a once a year accountant
Both approaches file your return. They part company when something happens in March.
A once a year accountant
You hear from them in December about January.
The bill arrives after the work, not before it.
A phone call can appear on the invoice.
HMRC correspondence is quoted for separately.

Tax investigation cover is included free.
Eight questions about how your lettings are handled
Answer each one about your current set-up.
Do you know which costs you can set against your letting income?
If the answer is a shrug, you are either overpaying or exposed.
Are your platform payouts reconciled against what guests actually paid?
Payouts arrive net of fees, so the gross figure HMRC expects is not the figure in your bank.
Do you know whether your takings are near the VAT threshold?
Short lets are standard rated, so a busy second property can push you over without warning.
Is every property you let included on your return?
One forgotten flat is the most common reason a letter arrives.
Do you have records to back up every claim you have made?
HMRC asks for evidence, not estimates.
Would your accountant deal with an HMRC check without a new quote?
Ours is covered, because tax investigation cover is included free.
Do you know the fee for the year ahead?
We agree it in writing before any work starts.
Can you get a straight answer on the day you ask for it?
We reply the same working day, and if the answer needs longer we tell you when to expect it.
- Self assessment returns
- Your letting income reported properly and filed on time, with the costs you are entitled to claim actually claimed.
- Bookkeeping for the lettings
- Platform payouts, fees, cleaning and repairs reconciled through the year. We migrate you to Xero free if you want to move.
- VAT and company filings
- VAT returns if your takings cross the threshold, plus year-end accounts and corporation tax where the properties sit in a company.
- Tax planning for hosts
- How the properties are held, and how you take money out if there is a company. We go through it with you by ninety days.
- HMRC investigation support
- Bring us in as soon as the letter lands and we handle the correspondence. Cover is included free for every client.
What knowing the Welsh rules is worth
Rules that apply in Wales are set in Wales, and an accountant outside the country misses them. A Cardiff retail client found that out the expensive way.
Clients described by type. Names withheld.
- How it was found
- A Spar franchisee came to us still paying full business rates through Covid, because Cardiff Council required an application for retail rates relief and nobody had told him.
- What happened
- We spotted it in the first meeting and got the £10,000 back for him.
Reviews from clients
Thank you Mud, your help and support with my VAT return is greatly appreciated. Always a prompt response and my difficult VAT return was quickly submitted and resolved. Would definitely recommend.
I just want to say a big thank you to Mudassir for all the advice, guidance and help he has provided whilst dealing with my accounts and tax returns. From start to finish the service has been excellent and professional. Unlike other accountancy firms they provide a friendly personalised service, I was very clear on the process and was even provided with additional guidance where needed. Highly recommended!
Friendly, nice 👌 , helpful and great all around
Difficult to describe as there are too many words that can be expressed for a wonderful accountant and their firm.
Definitely 🔝 and highly recommended in Wales 🏴 and throughout the UK for Accountancy and Tax Services

How switching to us works
You say yes, and we do the parts that feel awkward.
- Before you join
A free introductory chat
Tell us how many properties you let and where things stand. If we cannot genuinely help, we will say so.
- Week one
Fee agreed and handover done
We complete your ID checks, agree the fixed fee in writing, and write to your current accountant for your records so you do not have to.
- First month
Past returns read properly
We go through your returns and HMRC record in detail. This is where missed reliefs, payments on account set too high and appealable penalties turn up.
- By ninety days
A plan for the lettings
We talk through how the properties are held and how you take money out, and tidy up your bookkeeping so the figures arrive without chasing.
Who we are not right for
We do not take on CIS construction subcontractors.
We do not act for charities.
We do not take on businesses already late in an HMRC investigation.
If none of those describe you, run the check and we will come back the same working day.
Airbnb accountants Cardiff: questions people ask
What do Airbnb accountants in Cardiff cost?
We work on a fixed monthly fee agreed in writing before any work starts, so you know the figure before we begin. What it covers depends on how many properties you let, whether you are VAT registered, how many transactions there are and how tidy the records arrive. Calls, meetings and emails are never charged for.
How do I switch from my current accountant?
You tell us to go ahead and we do the rest. We write to your existing accountant for professional clearance and your records, so you never have that conversation, and we get appointed as your agent with HMRC and Companies House. Switching includes a free first month and free migration to Xero.
What happens if HMRC writes to me about my rental income?
Send us the letter the day it arrives and we take over the correspondence. Tax investigation cover is included free for every client we act for, so there is no separate charge and no decision to make about whether to involve us. Every HMRC investigation we have handled, we have won.
Do I have to change accounting software?
No. We work with what you already use, and plenty of hosts come to us with a spreadsheet of payouts and a folder of receipts. If you do want to move to Xero, we migrate you free as part of switching and set the bookkeeping up so payouts reconcile themselves.
Do I need to register for VAT on my Airbnb income?
Short term letting is standard rated for VAT, unlike long residential lets, so takings count towards the registration threshold. A second busy property can take a host over it without them noticing. We watch the rolling figure for you and tell you before it becomes a registration you have missed.
Do you only work with hosts in Cardiff?
We are based at Titan House in Cardiff Bay and over 90% of our clients are across South Wales, including Newport, Barry, Caerphilly and Swansea, plus Bristol over the bridge. We act for more than 100 clients in total, some fully remote, some in person and some a mix of the two.
