According to Companies House property data that the team at Access Self Storage has collected and analysed, the number of new property businesses established in 2021 has risen 43 percent over the previous year. Over 58,000 of these businesses, which seek to buy and sell, or “flip,” real estate registered with the government in the past two years.
With all these new property businesses, it’s no surprise that removal services are also experiencing a boom – the data reveals a 59 percent increase in moving companies since 2019.
While new real estate businesses have seen the largest percentage growth – jumping from fourth place in 2019 to second place this year – the top spot continues to be held by mail order and internet-based retailers.
Other common categories of newly incorporated businesses included letting and leasing businesses, the third most common and includes Access Self Storage, followed by management consultancy and road freight transport.
