1. Decide on a budget and set up a savings plan to reach it.
2. Research different neighborhoods, schools, and other amenities that you may be interested in.
3. Get pre-approved for a mortgage loan before starting your house search.
4. Look at homes in person or use an online listing service to find potential properties.
5. Make an offer and negotiate with the seller if needed.
6. Have your financial documents prepared and ready to submit when you go to closing.
