When a different code fits better
These are the codes most often confused with the main answer. Pick by the activity that earns most of your revenue.
| Code | Title | Use it if |
|---|---|---|
| NAICS 531312 | Nonresidential Property Managers | you mainly manage commercial or other nonresidential property |
| NAICS 531110 | Lessors of Residential Buildings and Dwellings | you own the homes you rent out rather than managing them for others |
| SIC 68209 | Other letting and operating of own or leased real estate | you rent out property you own |
Good to know
Owning and renting out your own buildings is a different activity (lessor) from managing other people's.
You can list more than one code. Companies House accepts up to four SIC codes, and SAM.gov lets you add several NAICS codes, with one marked as primary.
What the code affects
- SBA programs and federal contracts: your NAICS code sets the size limit you must stay under to count as small. Check your size.
- SAM.gov registration: contracting officers search by NAICS, so list every code you can deliver work under.
- Companies House: your SIC code appears on the public register and in your confirmation statement.
