Key reading

Luxury Real Estate Advisory · New York · Organic search · August 24–30, 2026

Across the 7-run window, no name in the New York real estate panel has established clear organic-surface authority — every segment of the query set remains unsettled and open to capture. zillow.com most often holds the top organic position, showing 41.07% observed presence, yet reddit.com follows closely at 38.87%. The spread between the rank-1 and rank-5 actors is 15.59 percentage points, a gap narrow enough to keep the entire panel competitive. Facebook occupies a position on this panel at 32.85% observed presence — appearing in 6 of 7 comparable runs — while Sotheby's International Realty, present in 4 of 7 comparable runs, records 25.48%. The surface mixes focused domains and other visible actors, none of which has locked down the organic panel over the observed period.

How the actors read on the surface

Luxury Real Estate Advisory · New York · Organic search · August 24–30, 2026

zillow.com

zillow.com most often holds the top organic position on this observed surface across the 7-run window, appearing in 7 of 7 comparable runs. Its 41.07% observed presence gives it the broadest query footprint on the panel, but the gap to the next actor is slim enough that the position is contested rather than secured.

reddit.com

reddit.com holds 38.87% observed presence and appeared in 7 of 7 comparable runs. Its consistent presence on a luxury real estate organic surface — a market where user-generated discussion threads compete directly with focused property domains — is the panel's most structurally notable feature.

elliman.com

elliman.com records 18.41% observed presence across the window, present in 7 of 7 comparable runs. It sits at the lower end of the panel by breadth, yet its unbroken presence across every run in the window keeps it firmly inside the top-5 frame.

Facebook

Facebook occupies a position on this organic panel at 32.85% observed presence, appearing in 6 of 7 comparable runs. Its breadth places it in the middle of the panel — above elliman.com and Sotheby's International Realty on the coverage dimension — despite not being classified as a property-focused domain on this surface.

Sotheby's International Realty

Sotheby's International Realty shows 25.48% observed presence and appeared in 4 of 7 comparable runs. Its lower presence frequency distinguishes it from the four actors that appeared in six or seven runs, yet its breadth when present places it above elliman.com on the coverage dimension.

Pattern on the observed surface

The panel's shape is contested rather than concentrated

The panel's shape is contested rather than concentrated. The top 2 actors together hold more than the remaining 3 combined, yet the 15.59 percentage-point spread from rank 1 to rank 5 is modest for a five-actor panel. The surface mixes focused domains and other visible actors — no single actor type owns the organic rail. Presence frequency varies: three actors appeared in all 7 comparable runs, one in 6 of 7, and one in 4 of 7, giving the panel an uneven attendance profile beneath its relatively tight breadth numbers.

Why this reading matters

Luxury Real Estate Advisory · New York · Organic search · August 24–30, 2026

zillow.com holds the top organic position most often, yet two of the five panel actors — reddit.com and Facebook — are not property-focused domains. The organic surface for Luxury Real Estate Advisory New York is shaped as much by broad-reach visibility as by specialist presence, a composition that any operator reading this panel should register.

Market implication

Luxury Real Estate Advisory · New York · Organic search · August 24–30, 2026

Across the 7-run window, no name in the New York luxury real estate panel has established organic-surface authority on any observed topic segment — every segment remains unsettled. This signals a surface where organic visibility is distributed rather than captured, and where shifts in a single actor's presence frequency could reshape the panel's top positions without requiring a large change in breadth.

FAQ

What does 'observed presence' measure on this card?
It measures the percentage of the observed queries on which a given actor appeared in organic search results, averaged across the comparable runs where that actor was present. It is breadth context — how widely an actor shows up — not the ranking axis.
How is the panel ranked if not by observed presence?
The panel is ranked by top organic position — how often each actor holds the number-one organic spot across the observed queries. An actor with lower observed presence can outrank one with higher presence if it captures the top position more frequently.
Does this card prove a trend or a business-market position?
No. This is a period observation across 7 comparable scheduled runs in an observation period (August 24–30, 2026). It does not establish a multi-month trend, and organic search visibility does not equate to business-market ownership or revenue share.
