His next door neighbor sold an identical house last summer for $3.38M.

While not 162 law, the reasoning & language for that finding are identical to 162 principles. 

The pay and benefits are basically identical.

Everything was completed renovated top-to-bottom, but the real kicker was creating a brand identity around the property known as "Bungalou".

Gathering a few quotes has you did for identical scope of work is the best way to assess whether pricing is fair.  

Consider allowing pets with an additional fee (either one-time fee or pet rent, whichever is the local custom).Another idea you might try is to put up another ad, identical in all ways, but put it as a 2BR with office AND den (or something similar).  

That would go in the face of an often referenced study the appraisal institute conducted by tracking actual sales data from which they calculated that homes with solar sell for an average premium of $15k. https://www.nytimes.com/2015/02/22/realestate/sola...Think about it: assuming house A and house B are identical other than one has solar and one does not (and you can't even see the solar because the panels are black and blend in to the roof), if house A has $2k/yr. electric bill, and house B has $0/yr. electric bill plus earns the owner $200/yr. selling SREC's back to the utility, you're telling me you'd pick house A?

Here's a great comp for our project, it's one block away and identical in layout and scope to our project.

So, let's say we have two identical properties but one has been divided into 3 units.

Some of the factors causing this is lack of identity for the college, shift of importance of having a college degree in the young generation, the ability for students to go a JC for two year tuition free.
