The end of the tax year can be a bit of a stressful time, especially if you’re new to the property industry. And once you’ve got through your first, each new tax year seems to come around faster than the one before.  

That’s why we decided to create Finance Fortnight. The idea was to equip you with some handy materials that would help to get your new tax year off to a great start. So, just in case you’ve missed anything, we’ve put together all the content from Finance Fortnight in this post, because it’s always a good time to get ahead of your finances.
