If you submit your site to this category and it does not belong here, what is likely to happen is that an editor for Real Estate will give it a cursory look and send it to a subcategory without reviewing it. Then, you will have to wait while the editor from the subcategory reviews your site. Save yourself the time and get listed faster: choose an appropriate subcategory to start with.
All real estate agents, and agencies with a single location should submit their sites to the Regional: North America: United States: State: Locality category where their office is located.
