Which SIC codes can be used by real estate agents?

Standard Industrial Classification codes — SIC codes for short — are given to all businesses. These 4 digit codes are then used by government agencies, marketing companies, banks, academics and entrepreneurs, to understand and analyze the type of work a business is involved in.

Real estate businesses fall into the major group 65 — all SIC codes for this industry will start with these numbers. You can then find out more about the business type by looking at the final digits. SIC code 6531 is used by Real Estate Agents and Managers.

The types of businesses using SIC code 6531 might include real estate agents and brokers, rental and escrow agents. For a Property Management business you might need to use different SIC codes.
