Human: How does one go about buying a house? Assistant: 
The first step to buying a house is to decide on the type of property you are looking for. You can then research different areas, compare prices, and narrow down your options. Once you have found a potential property, you should contact a real estate agent who can assist in negotiating with the seller and help you through the process of purchasing the home. Additionally, it is important to get pre-approved for a mortgage before making an offer on a property. Finally, make sure to review all paperwork carefully before signing any contracts.
