Step Four: Visit the Models - Once you've narrowed down your choices go out and look at the communities and home construction in person. Step Five: Find That One Unique Property - By this point, once you know your price point, you've done your research, you've narrowed your options, you've made your visits, you should be able to identify that one unique property that will work for you and your family. By this point you are on the way to becoming a new homeowner!
