How the actors read on the surface

Luxury Real Estate Advisory · New York · AI citation · August 10–16, 2026

youtube.com

youtube.com holds the strongest AI citation share on this market at 21.10%, present in 7 of 7 comparable runs. As a general-purpose platform rather than a specialist operator, its sustained position at the top of this citation rail across the full window signals that AI Overviews consistently reach for video-hosting content when answering luxury real estate queries in New York.

google.com

google.com records 9.41% AI citation share on this market and sits 11.69 percentage points behind youtube.com on AI citation share on this market. It appeared in only 3 of 7 comparable runs, making it one of the least consistently present actors in the top 5 — its mean share is built on intermittent appearances rather than steady citation.

reddit.com

reddit.com records 8.92% AI citation share on this market and sits 12.18 percentage points behind youtube.com. Unlike google.com, reddit.com appeared in 7 of 7 comparable runs, making it one of only two actors present across every observation in this window — a user-generated discussion platform sustaining a consistent citation footprint on this surface.

hollywoodreporter.com

hollywoodreporter.com records 8.45% AI citation share on this market, appearing in just 2 of 7 comparable runs. Its presence on a luxury real estate citation rail is structurally unexpected — a domain focused on entertainment content surfaces as an AI Overview-cited source on a market far from its editorial core.

hauseit.com

hauseit.com records 8.37% AI citation share on this market and appeared in 6 of 7 comparable runs. It is the closest thing to a focused real estate source on this panel, yet its mean citation share sits at the bottom of the top 5, separated from youtube.com by the full 12.73 percentage-point spread.

Pattern on the observed surface

Luxury Real Estate Advisory · New York · AI citation · August 10–16, 2026

The panel is top-heavy

The panel is top-heavy: the top 2 actors together hold more than the remaining 3 combined. Below youtube.com, the four trailing actors cluster within a narrow band. Presence frequency varies sharply: youtube.com and reddit.com appeared in every run, hauseit.com in 6 of 7, while google.com and hollywoodreporter.com surfaced in 3 and 2 runs respectively. The surface is composed entirely of platforms and non-operator domains, with no specialist real estate operator breaking into the observed citation rail across this window.

Why this reading matters

Luxury Real Estate Advisory · New York · AI citation · August 10–16, 2026

youtube.com's position at the top of the AI Overview citation rail for Luxury Real Estate Advisory New York raises a structural question about what AI Overviews treat as a citable source on this market. The citation surface does not mirror what a real estate professional might expect — entertainment media and discussion forums sit alongside the lead platform, while dedicated advisory domains are absent from the top 5 entirely.

Market implication

Luxury Real Estate Advisory · New York · AI citation · August 10–16, 2026

The AI Overview citation rail on this market remains wide open — even the top actor, youtube.com, holds only 21.10% of citation share, and the four remaining panel members each sit below 10%. No actor has secured established authority in any of the topic areas observed across this window. For any operator monitoring AI citation visibility in Luxury Real Estate Advisory New York, the observation signals that the citation surface is fragmented and unconsolidated, with general-purpose platforms filling the space that specialist operators have not yet occupied.

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 across the observed query set. It does not measure who opens AI answers, organic search ranking, or business-market position.
Can this card prove a trend over time?
This card aggregates 7 comparable scheduled runs across August 10–16, 2026. It observes mean citation share across the window but does not measure multi-month trajectory or directional movement. AI Overview content is volatile by nature — citation patterns can shift with model updates, query reformulations, and content changes.
Why are there no specialist real estate operators in the top 5?
The card reports what AI Overviews actually cited across 104 observed queries over the 7-run window. The absence of specialist operators from the top 5 is an observed fact of this surface, not a judgment about those operators' market standing or content quality.
