Key reading
Luxury Real Estate Advisory · Los Angeles · AI citation · September 14–20, 2026
youtube.com holds the rank-1 position in the period-wide AI Overview citation ranking for Luxury Real Estate Advisory Los Angeles, recording 32.82% of all AI citations observed across the 7-run window September 14–20, 2026. The 4 sources behind youtube.com range from 9.62% down to 6.53%, and the 4 sources behind youtube.com sit between 23.20 and 26.28 percentage points behind it. The top 2 actors together hold more than the remaining 3 combined. The panel is composed entirely of non-specialist platforms and focused sources rather than a single operator consolidating the surface. All 5 actors on the panel were cited in all 7 comparable runs, yet the concentration at the top — with youtube.com accumulating the largest share by a wide margin — shapes a surface where citation volume is top-heavy rather than evenly distributed.

FAQ
- What does AI citation share on this market measure?
- It measures how often an actor's domain appears as a cited source inside AI Overview answers when Google responds to queries in this market. It does not measure who opens those AI answers, nor does it reflect organic search ranking.

- No. This card observes an observation period of 7 comparable scheduled runs from September 14–20, 2026. AI Overview content varies by query, model, and date. The period aggregation widens the evidence base beyond a single run but does not establish a multi-month trajectory.
- How were the period values calculated?
- Each actor's raw AI citations were summed across all 7 comparable runs, and each actor's share is its total citations divided by one single period-wide denominator. The panel is ranked by cumulative citation volume over the period. AI Overview citation evidence was available on 7 of 7 runs in the window.
