In real estate is an authority site something like realtor .org, realtor .com or is it just any site that is close to top rankings in the search engines for a particular market or particular term?

I think everyone's opinion of this may be a bit different. Mine is kind of like John's. I think that there are authority sites to GeoTarget with (local media, city sites, social networking, etc) and there are authority sites for RE which can contain folks that are on the Top of SERPS in major markets or as well respected directories like reals and realestateabc.

I believe anyone with Good Unique websites could be an authority site
as long as they are properly SEO'd. I read somewhere it also helps if you have tons of unique contents.

quality links + good unique contents = authority site ? or near it
