Realtor political contributions from Texas

REALTOR and Texas as a two-field filter

Occupation REALTOR plus contributor state Texas sums to $4,833,938. That is about 10% of $49,791,079 nationally. Texas’s 17,515 contributions are about 7% of 243,658. Its 970 donors are about 9% of 10,968. Dollar share sits a little above contribution share, so Texas realtor-labeled receipts run slightly larger, on average, than the national mix for this string.

Average itemized gift in the Texas join is about $276 ($4,833,938 / 17,515). Real estate agent, broker, and realtor with different punctuation are not automatically included. This page is the exact REALTOR bucket.

Seventeen thousand five hundred fifteen Texas REALTOR gifts are about 7% of 243,658 nationally, a little under the 10% dollar share of $49,791,079. Nine hundred seventy of 10,968 donors is about 9%. Florida’s sibling join holds more receipts at a lower average. Neither share is a license count.

REALTOR nationwide

Ten thousand nine hundred sixty-eight donors used REALTOR on itemized receipts totaling $49,791,079 across 243,658 gifts. High contribution counts imply extensive repeat itemization. The word may be a trademarked professional designation in other contexts; on FEC forms it is still free text.

Most REALTOR dollars sit outside Texas ($49,791,079 minus $4,833,938). Florida has a separate REALTOR join on the same national denominator. The two state pages are parallel filters, not a contest over which housing market gives more.

Nine hundred seventy Texas donors

Nine hundred seventy Texas donors produced 17,515 REALTOR-tagged contributions totaling $4,833,938. The Texas campaign-finance hub places this title beside business owner, banker, and other TX strings so real-estate labeling is not treated as all Texas property-sector giving.

Licensure is not checked. A donor can type REALTOR without appearing in a state licensing database, and a licensed agent can type broker instead and miss this join. Contributor state is the address on the receipt, not the county where listings sit.

Realtor-PAC filings and Texas state campaign reports are separate. The $4,833,938 is FEC individual contributions tagged REALTOR with contributor state TX. Listing location is not the state field. Committee identity is not in this aggregate. Use receipts for recipients; use this page for the occupation–state total.

What the join does not measure

These figures are federal individual contributions, not realtor-PAC activity and not Texas state campaign filings. The table does not show that housing policy caused the gifts or that the money funded housing committees. Recipient identity is outside the filter.

Use the occupations index for agent and broker variants, the Florida REALTOR tie for another state shape, and the ties index for other joins. Source: FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates; occupation labels are filer-entered.

License language that the FEC does not check

Texas REALTOR at $4,833,938 from 970 donors and 17,515 gifts is about 10% of $49,791,079 nationally. Florida’s REALTOR join is $4,800,819 from 1,168 donors on the same denominator — nearly the same dollars, more people, more gifts (21,078). Two housing-market states, two cells, no association-membership match in either.

Average gift about $276 in Texas versus about $228 in Florida is another shape difference, not a quality ranking. Broker and real estate agent stay on other pages. A licensed Texas agent who wrote broker is absent from the 970 keys. An unlicensed person who wrote REALTOR is present.

Nine hundred seventy Texas donors, 17,515 gifts, $4,833,938, about 10% of $49,791,079. Florida’s REALTOR join is nearly the same dollars with more people. Neither cell is a license file. Broker and agent titles stay out. Realtor-PAC money stays out. The join is personal itemized gifts tagged REALTOR with contributor state TX, and that is the full claim.

Does REALTOR mean a licensed realtor?

Not in this table. FEC occupation is filer-entered. Nationally the string accounts for $49,791,079 from 10,968 donors. The FEC does not match names to a realtor association or a Texas licensing board. This page reports the REALTOR aggregate as filed for Texas addresses.

How does Texas compare with the national Realtor total?

Texas is about 10% of dollars ($4,833,938 of $49,791,079), about 7% of contributions (17,515 of 243,658), and about 9% of donors (970 of 10,968). Average itemized gift in the Texas join is about $276. Most REALTOR money remains attributed to other states.

Did these contributions go to Texas candidates?

The filter is donor state plus occupation, not recipient office. A Texas-addressed REALTOR can give to any FEC-registered committee. Mapping the $4,833,938 from 970 donors and 17,515 gifts to races requires committee-level receipts The packet totals for this join remain the occupation–state filter described above, with no extra dollar figures beyond those facts.
