As Surrey's county town, Guildford has a broad professional economy anchored by the University of Surrey and the Surrey Research Park, which hosts technology, gaming, biotech and digital firms alongside established professional-services practices. The High Street, the Friary shopping centre and a busy office market support retail, hospitality and consultancy businesses, while many residents commute from Guildford station to London Waterloo. We work with university spin-outs, freelance technology contractors, independent retailers and property owners across the GU postcodes, as well as practices and consultancies in nearby Godalming, Woking and Farnham. Guildford's strong housing values also make capital gains tax planning relevant for landlords and second-home owners.

Guildford landlords and capital gains tax
With property values across Guildford and the wider Surrey area, capital gains tax on a second home or buy-to-let can be significant — and UK residents must report and pay within 60 days of completion. We help local landlords with the 60-day return, Private Residence Relief and allowable-cost reviews. See our accountant for landlords service or estimate your bill with the free CGT calculator.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you work with technology contractors and freelancers near the Surrey Research Park? ▼
Yes. Many Guildford clients are technology contractors, consultants and freelancers linked to the Research Park and university spin-outs. We set up and run limited companies, advise on IR35 status, handle VAT and payroll, and prepare self assessment returns so you keep more of what you earn while staying compliant.
I commute from Guildford to London — can we work remotely? ▼
Absolutely. Plenty of our Guildford clients commute to London Waterloo and prefer not to lose time on meetings. We work securely online with cloud accounting software such as Xero and QuickBooks, share documents digitally and speak by phone or video, so your accounts and tax are handled without you leaving home or the office.
I own rental property in Guildford — how do you help with tax? ▼
We prepare your rental accounts and self assessment, claim allowable expenses correctly, and advise on capital gains tax when you sell. With Guildford property values being high, planning a disposal in advance can make a meaningful difference, so we help you use available reliefs and report any gain to HMRC on time.
