Right now buyers are pretty much fighting for homes when they hit the market, resulting in rising prices.

By first outlining what town, home size, price and reno needs fit your capabilities you will then have a clear of what you are searching for.To find the right home I recommend you get started by doing the following:Create a list of towns you would like to source dealsDetermine the price range or maximum purchase price for the propertyRenovation range: cosmetic to advanced, it is always my suggestion that most people start with a cosmetic rehabDecide on a home layout: this can also be a range, but we suggest having the construction type always  being the same, for example our home layout looks like the below:Single Family Home3-4 Bedrooms2+ Bathroom (2 full bath minimum)1,500+ Sq.

I am looking into Feedly or Inoreader but I am not sure if they are capable of this.

I didn't want to make things harder - but I also don't want to waste money when I am perfectly capable of doing it.

Just make it clear that the cost of purchasing from you, will be less than the cost of fighting it out in court with you. 

How does one fight this to ensure that it doesn't affect your score?

In our local market, deals are still available on the MLS, but you absolutely have to fight your hardest to get them, as well as being ready to purchase at a moments notice.

It can definitely be hard to pin down exactly what location is best, however once you start looking with your price range and capabilities in mind, areas will start making themselves clear.

The correspondent lenders are "partner lenders" you work with on the loans you don't have the capability to underwrite.

@Jake DotsonI hear you on the market value but its still worth fighting against.
