Real Estate political money in the 2012 election cycle
Donors who listed Real Estate as their occupation account for $10,026,664 in itemized individual contributions in the 2012 FEC cycle. The slice covers 7,423 contributions from 3,739 donors. The grouping’s all-cycle total is $103,921,024, so 2012 is 9.6% of that roll. Real Estate is a job label on a federal receipt, not a license file and not a connected PAC.

Real Estate meeting the 2012 election cycle
2012 is a presidential federal cycle on the FEC calendar. Intersecting the Real Estate occupation grouping with that year produces $10,026,664, 7,423 lines, and 3,739 donor keys. Those three figures are the join. The occupation hub still holds $103,921,024 across all cycles in the aggregate. This page does not restate that hub without the year filter.
About $2,682 per donor ($10,026,664 ÷ 3,739) and about $1,351 per contribution ($10,026,664 ÷ 7,423) describe this string in 2012. Lines per donor average about 2.0 (7,423 ÷ 3,739). Those ratios are arithmetic on the packet, not typical gifts and not a unique-person audit. Repeat givers raise the line count.
The 2012 election-cycle hub places Real Estate beside other occupation keys that year. Neither that hub nor this tie converts $10,026,664 into a civic-engagement score. Named employers who share a workplace with people in this cell sit in industry rows if the legal name was used instead of the occupation word.
9.6% of the Real Estate all-cycle grouping
9.6% is $10,026,664 divided by $103,921,024. The leftover $93,894,360 sits in other cycles on the occupation hub. A 9.6% year share is a piece of this grouping’s recorded history, not a ranked list of peak years — other years’ amounts are not in this packet except as that residual.
Presidential solicitation volume can lift itemized counts. 7,423 lines still describe only receipts tagged Real Estate in 2012. The packet does not publish committee names inside the cell; those live on the occupation and cycle overlays. Do not treat 9.6% as proof that 2012 was this occupation’s largest year in every dataset.
Real Estate is an occupation word, not a brokerage rollup
REAL ESTATE is filer-entered occupation text. Named brokerages, REITs, and developers who used a legal employer name sit in industry keys. DEVELOPER is a neighboring occupation string and is not added here. Realtor as a trademarked membership word is not verified.
A broker who typed the firm LLC is probably not in these donor keys. A person who typed Real Estate probably is. That split is a filing choice. This page does not recode MLS membership or state license boards into the cell.
What Real Estate money in this cycle is not
The cell is not NAR dues, not a real-estate PAC, and not a housing-stock census. Independent expenditures about housing bills are other FEC objects. HUD and GSA lease awards are USAspending objects.
This join does not claim that Real Estate-coded gifts funded federal housing or lease awards. Unitemized gifts are omitted. Motive is outside the packet. Keep the occupation word and the cycle year in any citation.
Pages that keep Real Estate and 2012 apart
The Real Estate occupation page holds $103,921,024 and other years. The 2012 election-cycle page holds that year’s occupation list. All occupations ranks neighboring job strings. All FEC ties lists other occupation–cycle pages so this cell is not mistaken for an industry–PAC join.
Keep both sides of the name — Real Estate and 2012 — whenever $10,026,664 is quoted. Cite 7,423 contributions, 3,739 donors, 9.6% of $103,921,024, and FEC.gov. Do not convert 3,739 keys into licensed or enrolled people. Do not fold USAspending into the cell.
How to cite Real Estate × 2012
A complete claim names Real Estate and 2012, then $10,026,664, 7,423 contributions, 3,739 donors, and 9.6% of $103,921,024, source FEC.gov. Occupation labels are filer-entered. Unitemized gifts stay omitted. Independent expenditures stay omitted. Federal awards that mention a similar profession stay omitted.
The 3,739-donor count is the net of filing choices in 2012: people who typed Real Estate increased the cell; people who typed a firm name or a neighboring title reduced it. $10,026,664 and the 9.6% share travel with that net. They do not travel with a licensing board, a union roster, or a USAspending file. Quote the occupation hub for $103,921,024 and other cycles.
2012 remains a presidential federal cycle. That calendar fact does not add dollars. The join stops at itemized individual receipts tagged Real Estate in 2012: $10,026,664 on 7,423 lines from 3,739 donors. About $1,351 per line and $2,682 per donor are means, not typical gifts. Repeat filers can sit in the 7,423 without raising unique people above 3,739.

- Does this include people who listed a company instead of Real Estate?
- Usually not. Named firms are other industry keys. Neighboring titles are other occupation keys. This cell is the grouped Real Estate string in 2012. Mixing keys would blur the 3,739-donor count.
- Do Real Estate donations fund federal awards?
- No. FEC individual contributions and USAspending obligations are different datasets. This tie reports only itemized individual receipts tagged Real Estate in 2012: $10,026,664 across 7,423 contributions from 3,739 donors.
