<human>:  I would like to buy a house, where do I start?
<bot>: Start by researching the housing market in the area you are looking to buy. Get an understanding of what the current prices for houses in the area are and what type of house you are looking for. Then you can begin to look for different real estate agents in the area who can help you find the right property. Additionally, you may want to consider speaking to family and friends who have previously purchased a home in the area to get a better understanding of the process and what to expect. Finally, it is important to be aware of the paperwork that may be involved in the purchase process, and make sure you are adequately prepared for the financial commitment involved in purchasing a house.
