You identify comps based on recent sales in the area that are similar in location, condition, size/layout and features - its doesn't matter whether its a "creative financing deal" or not.Frankly if you're not comfortable with it then you should seek out the help of a professional - assessing value is a major part of the deal analysis process and you don't want to wing it or make a decision based on the advice of an internet forum.

I am having trouble locating this home style on google, when searching for photos of similar homes.I would normally call it an "L-Shaped Tri-Level" or "L-Shaped Split-Level" but if you pull up a google image search with those phrases, nothing shows an attached garage in this manner.Is there a better name for this type of layout that I am missing, specifically, with a front-attached garage as shown?
