My name is Robin Speronis and I am the Owner/Broker of Zen Real Estate of Southwest Florida, wwwAskZenRealEstate.com, 1-877-890-0121 and understanding the different search techniques that the MLS offers (your own Listingbook account) can give you the edge in your search by helping you identify valuable property as it becomes listed on the MLS.
A Buyers' personal MLS account - Listingbook - allows a search by GEO Area Codes which are much more specific then zip codes.
For instance, GEO Area Code CC22 is located in Cape Coral and consist of Units 69, 70, 72, 73, 74, and 75. CC22 is in the Cape Harbour neighborhood of Cape Coral where there is easy access to the many upscale amenities in the neighborhood as well as direct access boating from your backyard with many properties. CC22 is the hottest GEO Area in all of Lee County with record sales and holding it's value.
If a premium property came on the market as a Bank Owned in CC22, you would need to know the day that it came onto the market (MLS) in order to have a shot at purchasing it. Your personal MLS account - Listingbook - would give you a daily update of what is new on the market that meets your criteria (for example CC22).
