pricing duplex unit in the south bay

I'm new to rental property management and I'm having trouble putting the right price on my duplex in the Blossom Hill valley in the Bay Area.. Due to the lack of duplexes, it is very difficult to find comps within reasonable time. Just like others, i do not want to loose profits but i definitely don't want to charge too high risking vacancy. Duplex sits between townhouses and SFH. It has private backyard, garage and privacy but lack amenities covered by townhouses. 

Rentometer is way too skewed by upscale condos.  

Zillow is clueless with duplex.

The upper cap is SFH but how lower should a duplex be when comparing with a comparable specs SFH?

Please advise.
