REAL ESTATE DEVELOPER occupation in FEC data
Donors who listed REAL ESTATE DEVELOPER as occupation account for $59,673,284 in itemized federal receipts in LobbyVault’s FEC.gov bulk index. Those dollars sit on 31,235 contributions from 4,000 donor records. The three-word title is a distinct key from REAL ESTATE and from REALTOR. This page does not include those other strings. In compact form that dollar total is $59.7 million in the LobbyVault index of FEC bulk data.

A small pool with high dollars per line
31,235 itemizations is a thin stack next to the broader REAL ESTATE key. Against $59,673,284, the mean is about $1,910 per contribution. Against 4,000 donors, the mean is about $14,918 per donor record. About 8 contributions per donor is a modest repeat rate.
That shape is concentration relative to REALTOR, which in this harvest has more lines and a much smaller mean gift. The contrast is between occupation strings, not a verified split between licensed agents and developers.
Developer, builder, and homebuilder are other strings if that is what the donor wrote. This overlay cites only $59,673,284, 31,235 contributions, and 4,000 donors.
Three property titles, three totals
REAL ESTATE, REALTOR, and REAL ESTATE DEVELOPER coexist in the bulk file because donors type different words. A person who used more than one title across gifts appears in more than one occupation total. Combining the three without labeling the sum would mix keys.
Best-efforts collection records the donor’s phrase. There is no building-permit or contractor-license match. Retired developers may still use the long title.
Occupation versus industry
Industry pages group employer categories. Construction, property, and finance employers can all sit behind this occupation string. Adding occupation and industry dollars double-counts overlapping rows.
4,000 is a contributor-record count, not a census of U.S. developers. Address variants can split people. Restated in compact millions, the occupation total is $59.7 million. That compact figure is the same headline amount as the full dollar total on this page, rounded to one decimal place in millions.
Using the hub

Limits
Live filters may change displayed sums. These three numbers do not measure project size, zoning outcomes, or trade-association PAC spending. They are occupation-string totals on itemized individual receipts.
Researchers comparing occupation keys should keep REAL ESTATE DEVELOPER on its own line with its own dollar, contribution, and donor facts. The occupations index is the inventory of neighboring strings. Industry pages remain an employer-side cut and should not be added to this occupation total. Unitemized receipts never carry an occupation code, so $59.7 million is itemized activity for this string in the loaded extract. Restated in compact millions, the occupation total is $59.7 million. That compact figure is the same headline amount as the full dollar total on this page, rounded to one decimal place in millions.
REAL ESTATE DEVELOPER versus agent-style strings
REAL ESTATE DEVELOPER is $59.7 million on 31,235 itemizations from 4,000 donor records. Mean line size is about $1,910 and mean dollars per donor record are about $14,918, with about 8 itemizations per donor. REALTOR has many more lines and a much smaller mean gift. REAL ESTATE is a shorter occupation word. None of those keys is inside this total.
Building permits and contractor licenses are not matched. Developer and homebuilder are other strings unless they normalized here. 4,000 is a contributor-record count. Industry pages for construction or property will not equal $59,673,284. Cite the three facts as an exact-string filter. Unitemized receipts are omitted. REAL ESTATE DEVELOPER is the long property title. Four thousand donor records and 31,235 itemizations produced $59.7 million, with a mean line near $1,910. REALTOR’s stack is thicker and cheaper per line. REAL ESTATE is the short word. Permits are not matched. If a story needs all three property titles, print three rows. This guide prints one.
