This is a very interesting comparison.

I suppose the leverage in the model for Self-Funded meets standard OCC guidance (ex. leverage limits and amortization requirements), but are lenders generally comfortable doing a 90% levered deal? Does this maybe have to do with the guarantee that comes with an SBA loan?

I'm also curious how the model arrives at 80% for 'Searcher % of Gains' - I see it's an input, and I'm just wondering exactly how it's derived.

Again, very insightful post, and thanks for sharing!
