Luxury Real Estate Advisory · Los Angeles · AI Overview · September 7–13, 2026
youtube.com holds the rank-1 position in the period-wide AI opening-control ranking at 17.36%, with facebook.com at 16.12% — the top 2 actors together hold less than the remaining 8 combined. The gap between them is 1.24 percentage points, the narrowest on the panel, while the spread from rank 1 to rank 10 is 14.05 percentage points. List Sothebys International Realty, the highest-ranked specialist operator on the panel, records 9.92% and sits 7.44 percentage points behind youtube.com on AI opening share on this market. The lower half of the panel — from rubyhome.com at 5.79% down to nar.realtor at 3.31% — carries actors with varied presence frequencies, and 3 of the 10 actors opened AI answers in fewer than all 6 comparable runs.

Pattern on the observed surface

Why this reading matters
Luxury Real Estate Advisory · Los Angeles · AI Overview · September 7–13, 2026
youtube.com and facebook.com together absorb the two largest slices of AI answer openings on this luxury real estate surface in Los Angeles, yet neither is a specialist operator on this market. The opening-control rail for this market draws from a mix of social platforms, specialist domains, and niche domains.
Market implication
Luxury Real Estate Advisory · Los Angeles · AI Overview · September 7–13, 2026
The AI-answer opening layer on this market surface shows no actor with established authority on this AI Overview opening-control rail across the 6-run window.

FAQ
- What does 'AI opening share on this market' measure?
- It measures which actor is cited at the opening of AI Overview answers — the source AI reaches for first when answering a query. It is not the same as general citation share (which counts all citations, not just the opening) and it is not an organic search ranking.
- Does this card prove a longer-term trend in AI opening behavior?
- This observation does not establish a longer-term trend. It aggregates 6 comparable scheduled runs in an observation period from September 7–13, 2026. AI Overview opening behavior is volatile across queries, models, and dates; future windows may produce different results.
- Why do some actors show fewer than 6 of 6 comparable runs?
- Presence frequency reflects how many of the 6 comparable runs an actor actually opened at least one AI Overview answer. California Department of Real Estate / DRE opened AI answers on 2 of 6 comparable runs, usrealtytraining.com on 4 of 6, and nar.realtor on 3 of 6. Their period-wide AI opening share is still computed over the full period denominator.
