The panel is dispersed
The panel is dispersed. The top 3 actors together hold less than the remaining 7 combined, and the spread from rank 1 to rank 10 is 8.71 percentage points. The 9 sources behind reddit.com range from 11.36% down to 3.41%. The surface mixes general-purpose platforms (reddit.com, youtube.com, facebook.com, instagram.com) with focused and niche domains (hauseit.com, StreetEasy, hollywoodreporter.com, realtrends.com, elikarealestate.com, decodenyc.com).

Why this reading matters
Luxury Real Estate Advisory · New York · AI Overview · August 10–16, 2026
reddit.com holds the rank-1 position on this AI opening-control rail, yet the surface it leads is notably flat: the gap between rank 1 and rank 2 is 0.76 percentage points, while the gap between rank 1 and rank 10 is 8.71 percentage points. When AI reaches for a first source on Luxury Real Estate Advisory New York queries, it draws from a wide and varied pool — platforms and niche domains alike — rather than defaulting to a single anchor.
Market implication
Luxury Real Estate Advisory · New York · AI Overview · August 10–16, 2026
The AI Overview opening-control rail for Luxury Real Estate Advisory New York, observed across 7 comparable runs in August 10–16, 2026, signals a surface where no actor has accumulated a decisive opening-share position. The fragmentation across platforms and niche domains suggests that monitoring this rail requires tracking a broad set of sources rather than a single reference point. Any shift in cumulative opening volume by even one or two actors could reshape the panel's upper tier in a future window.

FAQ
- What does 'AI opening share on this market' measure?
- It measures how often a given actor is cited at the very opening of an AI Overview answer — the first source AI reaches for when responding to a query. It is not the same as general citation share (which counts all citations, not just the opening position) and it is not an organic search ranking.
- Does this card prove which actor is the business leader in New York luxury real estate?
- No. This card observes AI Overview opening-control behavior on Google desktop across 104 queries over 7 comparable scheduled runs. It does not measure business revenue, market share, or client volume. AI opening share reflects what AI surfaces choose to cite first, not real-world market position.
- Can I read a trend from this observation?
- This observation does not establish a longer-term trend. AI Overview opening behavior is volatile across queries, models, and dates. The period aggregation across 7 runs widens the evidence base compared to a single run, but it does not license directional claims about growth or decline.
