Real Estate Developer money in the 2012 FEC cycle

$3,151,755 in itemized individual contributions is the 2012-cycle join for occupation Real Estate Developer. FEC.gov aggregates count 1,668 contributions from 845 donors. The same string totals $59,673,284 across every cycle in this table, so 2012 holds about 5.3% of the occupation bucket. The word on the form is a self-reported occupation, not a building-permit census or a license file. This page joins that string to cycle 2012.

Key figures

  • $3,151,755 joins the Real Estate Developer occupation string to the 2012 FEC cycle.
  • 1,668 contributions from 845 donors produced that cell.
  • 2012 is about 5.3% of the occupation’s $59,673,284 lifetime total.
  • REAL ESTATE DEVELOPER is a filer-entered title, not a building-permit census or a license file.

Real Estate Developer as occupation, 2012 as cycle

Two keys define this page. One is the occupation string REAL ESTATE DEVELOPER. The other is the 2012 federal election cycle. The match is $3,151,755, built from 1,668 contributions and 845 unique donors. Drop either key and the number changes. Fewer than 850 donor IDs produced $3.2 million in 2012. Mean dollars per donor sit above the broker and Realtor 2012 cells. That contrast is three joins, not a ranking of the housing trades.

Average contribution is about $1,890; average per donor is about $3,730. Those means are arithmetic on the 2012 cell only. The packet has no median, no party split, and no employer table. About 2.0 itemized rows per donor is a filing ratio, not a headcount of unique humans behind every spelling variant.

Developer is not broker and not Realtor

REAL ESTATE DEVELOPER is a three-word occupation key. REAL ESTATE BROKER 2012 and REALTOR 2012 are other cells in this slice. The FEC does not verify development projects or building permits.

$59,673,284 is every cycle combined for REAL ESTATE DEVELOPER. $3,151,755 in 2012 is about 5.3% of that stack. Other windows hold about 94.7% ($56,521,529). A cycle cell at 5.3% is a chapter, not the occupation’s full FEC history. REALTOR, REAL ESTATE BROKER, and BUILDER are other occupation pages if stored separately. Combining them without naming each source total mixes keys.

845 donors and 1,668 gifts in 2012

845 unique donors against 1,668 contributions implies some repeat giving inside the 2012 window. Primaries, generals, and multiple committees all add rows. One person can appear more than once if addresses or names vary. Unitemized gifts never carry an occupation code, so they never enter $3,151,755.

A title on a form is not an employment verification. People using a household occupation, a retired title, or a short status word can all land in the same cell. LobbyVault does not recode REAL ESTATE DEVELOPER into a NAICS industry or a licensing roster. Recipients of the campaign gifts live on the occupation hub and the 2012 cycle hub.

About 5.3% of a $59.7 million occupation stack

5.3% is $3,151,755 divided by $59,673,284. Reading only 2012 understates the parent occupation book. Reading only the parent hides that this cycle’s share is 5.3%. The leftover outside 2012 is $56,521,529. Those other-cycle dollars are not itemized on this relationship page.

Presidential-year and midterm windows are different FEC two-year clocks. This page cites cycle 2012 only. A later or earlier cell for the same occupation string is a different join even when the occupation total $59,673,284 is shared.

What a Real Estate Developer–2012 join cannot claim

This page does not measure construction volume and does not attach project names to FEC rows. HUD, DOT, or other housing-related awards on USAspending are a different dataset.

The page does not identify employers, does not convert occupation text into a corporate gift, and does not link FEC receipts to USAspending obligations. Campaign gifts and federal awards remain separate public records. Correlation between a job title and a cycle total is not causation. Cite $3,151,755, 1,668 contributions, and 845 donors for Real Estate Developer in 2012. Cite $59,673,284 for the all-cycle occupation grouping. Name FEC.gov.

Related Real Estate Developer and 2012 tables

Real Estate Developer donations is the occupation hub behind $59,673,284. The 2012 election cycle page is the cycle census across occupations. All occupations lists other strings. All FEC ties collects other occupation-cycle pairs from the same two fields. Live hubs override this snapshot. If a hub disagrees with $3,151,755, 1,668 gifts, or 845 donor IDs, the hub and FEC.gov control.

Keep the occupation string REAL ESTATE DEVELOPER attached to $3,151,755 whenever the sentence also names cycle 2012. Keep 1,668 contributions and 845 donors in the same citation so readers can see whether Real Estate Developer in 2012 is a high-volume stack or a concentrated roster. The all-cycle occupation total $59,673,284 answers a different question: every window combined, not this two-year clock. Unitemized receipts, independent expenditures, and state-office campaigns sit outside this extract. Occupation labels are filer-entered. FEC.gov is the source.
