I'm looking at two strategies in creative financing and methodology.

So, even though they try to use what looks like strict methodologies to calculate the values, there is wiggle room.

Perhaps we just helped them purchase the right properties but I wonder about the survey's methodology

In fact, it's so different that it makes me question my methodology. 

So yes same as SFR in the methodology, but no; different than an SFR in that they would not compare it to SFRs.

I've heard of some just using a % of the deal value, but would be helpful to hear some actual methodology from some experienced folks out there.I'd appreciate any insight on this subject!

My opinion... get your own real data and stay away from reports with faulty methodology.

@Nancy Bachety has a good methodology as well, but also make sure to check local regulations and laws.
