That is the database an agent searches for a client who has asked about Lakes by the Bay, Cutler Ridge, Saga Bay, Bel-Aire, Whispering Pines, Pine Bay, Cutler Cay, Coral Reef, Old Cutler Bay and Mariner Lakes. A listing that is not on it is invisible to every one of those searches, whatever else it is advertised on. Buyers looking at Cutler Bay frequently look at Palmetto Bay, Homestead and Pinecrest in the same week, so the comparison a buyer agent runs is rarely one city wide.
