Commercial Real Estate occupation money in the 2008 FEC cycle

Commercial Real Estate as occupation, 2008 as the cycle

Two FEC fields define the cell: occupation COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE and election cycle 2008. Matching rows sum to $513,273, 456 contributions, and 261 donors. Drop either key and the number changes. Real estate, real estate agent, commercial broker, and realtor are other keys if those words appear. This join does not recode the label into an NAIOP or CCIM census, a brokerage headcount, or a REIT PAC. Other cycle amounts are not fields in this packet except as the remainder on the occupation hub.

Parent hubs: Commercial Real Estate donations at /occupations/commercial-real-estate/ and the 2008 election cycle at /election-cycles/2008/. All occupations at /occupations/ lists neighboring titles. All FEC ties at /ties/ keeps each occupation-year cell on its own path so a reader can move without mixing $513,273 into another year or another string. Do not add those parent pages into this cell.

Party, committee, and employer breakdowns for Commercial Real Estate in 2008 are not fields in this packet. Do not infer a partisan split from $513,273. Broker versus principal versus developer versus asset manager is unpublished for Commercial Real Estate in 2008. The occupation page and the 2008 cycle page are the next clicks for named committees. Hundreds of donor keys and four hundred-plus receipts is a mid-scale industry-phrase cell in a presidential year.

COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE as an industry phrase

$5.7 million ($5,718,310) belongs to the exact string COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE across harvested cycles. It is not an NAIOP or CCIM census, a brokerage headcount, or a REIT PAC. People who wrote nearby wording — real estate, real estate agent, commercial broker, and realtor — sit in other rows if the characters differ. The 2008 slice is 9.0% of that title bucket ($513,273 of $5,718,310). Share of COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE is not share of all 2008 receipts. The remainder, $5,205,037, sits in other cycles on the occupation hub.

Amended individual contribution reports can move $513,273. A later harvest of the same occupation string can move $5,718,310. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. Live Commercial Real Estate donations and the live 2008 election cycle pages are the tables; this prose is a packet snapshot. Itemized individual contributions are the only receipt class in this cell. Unitemized gifts below the itemization threshold, in-kind goods, and bundled contributions without this occupation string are outside $513,273.

261 commercial-real-estate donors and 456 receipts in 2008

261 donors and 456 receipts — about 1.7 lines per donor. Mean per receipt about $1,126; mean per donor about $1,967. Those ratios are arithmetic on two harvested integers. They are not medians, not typical gifts, and not a claim about income. Hundreds of donor keys and four hundred-plus receipts is a mid-scale industry-phrase cell in a presidential year. No median is published in this packet.

Repeat gifts add receipts. 456 is a line count, not 261 one-time gifts. Broker versus principal versus developer versus asset manager is not encoded in the occupation string. Neither figure is a headcount of everyone who works in the field named by COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE. People who left occupation blank, used a nearby spelling, or listed a more specific title are not in $513,273. Real Estate Agent 2012 is a different occupation and a different cycle. Do not merge the two joins.

Industry phrase versus agent title and PACs

Cite $513,273 as Commercial Real Estate in 2008. Cite $5,718,310 as this title’s occupation total. Do not add real-estate association PAC filings to either figure. Those filings are committee reports. Mixing PAC spending with $513,273 would blend FEC tables. All occupations lists neighboring titles so a searcher can open the other string’s cycle cell rather than rescale 9.0%.

FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by self-reported occupation and election cycle. This join does not recode COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE into a Bureau of Labor Statistics title, a NAICS code, or a license class. If a researcher needs those crosswalks, they start from the raw string. Correlation is not causation: a presidential-year total does not prove the occupation’s motives, and it does not attach these gifts to any federal spending dataset. USAspending.gov awards are a different ledger. This page does not claim that 2008 donations funded contracts or grants.

How to cite Commercial Real Estate money in 2008

A clean footnote names occupation COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE, election cycle 2008, $513,273 in itemized individual contributions, 456 receipts, and 261 donors on FEC.gov. Keep the itemized word. Mean dollars remain about $1,126 per line and $1,967 per donor in the cell. If the live Commercial Real Estate donations overlay has refreshed, quote the overlay. Do not treat 456 as unique workers in the trade named by COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE.

This URL exists because two filters meet. Commercial Real Estate donations rolls every cycle into one COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE running total. The 2008 election cycle rolls every occupation into one 2008 total. Only the Commercial Real Estate × 2008 overlay applies both filters, which is why this page cites 456 receipts and $513,273. All FEC ties is the directory of other occupation-cycle cells.

Occupation hub, 2008 hub, and Real Estate Agent as a sibling

The occupation hub still holds $5,205,037 outside 2008. Most of the $5,718,310 roll is not this cycle’s cell. This page isolates the overlap for readers who need both the title and the year, not either hub restated. Real Estate Agent 2012 is a different occupation and a different cycle. Do not merge the two joins. Gifts per donor in 2008 average about 1.7. That ratio is 456 divided by 261, not a measure of turnout. Original filings remain at FEC.gov. Occupation labels are filer-entered.
