Use a single users table for everyone, plus other models for the
different roles, eg. Agent and Member (or whatever makes most sense
for what you're currently calling a User). The users table should have
model and foreign_key columns. The only others necessary would be
password and username (or email, whatever), and maybe created. All of
the other data specific to each user type would go in its own table,
and specific logic in the model. In your login method, you could then
switch on $this->Auth->user('model') to decide where to redirect.
