Property income tracking alongside your GP locum records

A GP locum with rental income may have two distinct businesses or reporting activities. Combining rent with clinical fees or property repairs with locum expenses makes both harder to review. Keep the source, category, date and business context explicit even if one person ultimately reports both.

airGP property records sit alongside, but remain distinguishable from, locum sessions and expenses. You can label properties, review tax-year totals, export records and use supported UK property data in the wider MTD workflow.

For income, retain the source date, gross amount, property label, category and a useful note. For spending, retain the supplier document, amount, property and business purpose. The correct tax date and category can depend on the accounting basis and facts, so ask an adviser when uncertain.

airGP includes UK rent and other income categories plus premises running costs, repairs and maintenance, financial costs, professional fees, cost of services and other expense categories. Choosing a label organises the record; it does not prove tax deductibility.

For jointly let property, the full transaction and your reportable share may differ. airGP records whether an entry is jointly let and an ownership-share percentage, then calculates the reportable amount from that share.

airGP cannot determine the correct legal or tax share. Ownership, marital rules, agreements and elections may matter. Confirm the percentage with your accountant and retain supporting evidence.

Everyday repairs and capital improvements may receive different treatment. Finance costs, private use, deposits, replacements and mixed invoices can also require care. Record facts and evidence without forcing uncertain spending into an allowable category merely because the software offers one.

Add a clear note and flag uncertain items for accountant review. Where one invoice covers several properties or different types of work, preserve a reliable breakdown. Record refunds and corrections traceably rather than deleting the original context.

At quarter end, check that rent and agent statements are complete, expenses are supported, joint shares are verified, duplicates are removed and dates fall in the intended period. Compare totals with source records, then review the snapshot and obligation before authorising a submission.

airGP supports relevant UK property quarterly MTD workflows for supported obligations and tax years alongside self-employment records. Foreign property records can be tracked and exported, but foreign property quarterly submissions are not currently supported through airGP. Verify HMRC eligibility and dates for your circumstances.

Each month, enter rent and agent statement lines, add spending, retain documents, reconcile totals and flag questions. Check property labels to prevent entries drifting to the wrong property. Export periodically and retain a secure copy with supporting evidence.

airGP's calculations and summaries save arithmetic while keeping property and locum records distinguishable. They remain summaries of your inputs, not a guarantee of completeness or correct tax treatment.
