Key figures

Investor title, mid-size mean gift

$15,226,506 is the occupation-level dollar total. 23,570 is the itemization count. 1,979 is the donor-record count. Mean contribution size is about $646. Mean dollars per donor record are about $7,694. Repeat giving is about 12 itemizations per donor record.

1,979 donor records is a mid-width pool. The per-line mean of about $646 is larger than agent and broker strings in this harvest band and smaller than concentrated venture titles.

These means are not typical-check estimates and not a measure of property-portfolio value allocated to politics. The packet has no holdings field and no gift-size distribution.

REAL ESTATE INVESTOR is not REALTOR

REALTOR, REAL ESTATE, REAL ESTATE DEVELOPER, and REAL ESTATE BROKER are neighboring occupation keys. This page cites only REAL ESTATE INVESTOR: $15,226,506, 23,570 contributions, and 1,979 donors. Those other strings stay outside the total unless the bulk extract normalized them here.

The FEC does not verify deed records, license status, or investor accreditation. Landlords, syndicators, and people who own a rental as a side occupation can all type REAL ESTATE INVESTOR. Occupation is per transaction.

What the dollars do not measure

$15,226,506 is not a real-estate-industry PAC total and not assessed property value. Industry pages group employers. An investor in residential rentals and an investor in commercial buildings share this occupation string if they typed REAL ESTATE INVESTOR.

Party is not stored in the occupation column. Open the REAL ESTATE INVESTOR occupation page for recipient rows. Restated in compact millions, the occupation total is $15.2 million.

Occupation versus industry for property capital

A donor who listed REAL ESTATE INVESTOR on some gifts and REALTOR on others will appear in both occupation totals for the respective lines. Adding those keys without naming each source total changes the unit from one FEC string to a homemade cluster.

Use the occupations index to see neighboring property titles as separate keys. Use industry pages for employer-side cuts.

Limits and source

LobbyVault does not infer motive from the occupation column. Compact millions ($15.2 million) are the same headline amount as $15,226,506, rounded to one decimal place. Live hub filters may change displayed sums; this file restates harvested packet facts only.

Quote occupation equals REAL ESTATE INVESTOR, then $15,226,506, 23,570 contributions, and 1,979 donors. The occupations index is the inventory of neighboring property titles. Candidate and committee pages hold the recipient side. Mean line size of about $646 is larger than agent strings in this harvest and smaller than concentrated venture titles.

Landlords and syndicators share REAL ESTATE INVESTOR only when that phrase is the occupation text. 23,570 itemizations from 1,979 donor records produced $15,226,506. REALTOR and REAL ESTATE DEVELOPER remain other keys. Deed records are not joined. Mean line size of about $646 is an arithmetic mean. Cite the exact string.

Deed records are not in the packet. 1,979 donor records is not a unique-person estimate after name matching. Restate the citation as occupation equals REAL ESTATE INVESTOR, dollars equal $15,226,506, contributions equal 23,570, donors equal 1,979.
