Yes, where a UK SIC code is available: class 68.32 covers management of real estate on a fee or contract basis. Agencies that also sell or let appear there only if management is their main activity.
SIC 68
Estate agents, letting agents, property and block management companies, housing associations and companies letting their own property: for trades and facilities firms, insurers, conveyancers and proptech vendors who want to reach this group by post or keep their CRM up to date.
Our UK dataset holds 2 676 396 records (as at 4 novembre 2026); they are not yet assigned to industries. The quote states the size available for this industry.
Export of the whole industry: £349 (full price). Selections by nation, postcode area or your own filters are quoted on request.
Official statistics: 130 040 businesses in the UK according to ONS, UK business: activity, size and location 2026 (enterprises in March 2026, published 24 September 2026). Section L real estate activities (division 68): buying and selling, letting of own property, estate agents and property management. This is the size of the market, not the size of our dataset.
The industry corresponds to division 68 of UK SIC 2007, real estate activities: buying and selling own property, renting and operating own or leased property, and agency and management on behalf of others.
Developers who have buildings put up are in 41.10, in construction, not here; add that class from Construction and building trades if you want them. Residents’ management companies of blocks of flats can file the Companies House code 98000 (residents property management), which lies outside division 68 altogether.
| UK SIC 2007 | Official title | For your selection |
|---|---|---|
| 68.10 | Buying and selling of own real estate | property trading on own account |
| 68.20 | Renting and operating of own or leased real estate | 68.20/1 housing association real estate, 68.20/2 conference and exhibition centres, 68.20/9 other letting |
| 68.31 | Real estate agencies | estate agents and letting agencies |
| 68.32 | Management of real estate on a fee or contract basis | property, block and estate management for owners |
Estate and letting agency is regulated differently in England, Scotland and Wales. Some registers can be searched online; none of them is a mailing list.
These 15 columns are included.
Class 68.20 is large and mixed: besides housing associations it can contain companies that own just one or a few buildings and have no office of their own. If you serve managing agents, ask specifically for 68.32; making a website a required field helps to filter out pure holding companies.
An agency may handle sales, lettings and block management at once. In the statistics it appears under its main activity only, so a combined agency is found either in 68.31 or in 68.32, never in both.
An agency run as a limited company is a corporate subscriber: a B2B email needs no prior consent if you identify yourself and offer an opt-out. Sole-trader agents need consent or a soft opt-in, and every sales call must first be screened against TPS and Corporate TPS.
Example request: we are a plumbing and heating firm with an emergency service and are looking for property and block managers (class 68.32) in London and the neighbouring postcode areas of Surrey and Kent, for a postal mailing presenting our maintenance contracts. How many records is that, and how current are the data?

Questions
Yes, where a UK SIC code is available: class 68.32 covers management of real estate on a fee or contract basis. Agencies that also sell or let appear there only if management is their main activity.
Developers are in 41.10, in construction, and can be added to the same request. Companies that file the Companies House code 98000 (residents property management) fall outside division 68 and are not part of this industry.
A sales call is allowed only to a number that is not registered with TPS or Corporate TPS and whose subscriber has not objected to your calls (PECR reg. 21). Screening is the caller’s job. A letter is the simplest first contact. Details: PECR rules for B2B email and calls.
