1. Determine Your Needs

Before doing any more research, stop for a minute and really consider what you need in a home. Of course, you want a functional, quality home, but what do you need beyond that? How many rooms do your kids need? Will you be needing a home office? Are you wanting an extra bedroom for company? Questions like these can help you determine what your top requirements are for your new home. Every homeowner has different requirements for their new place, and LGI can meet all of yours!

2. Explore Your Options

Once you have created your mental image of your perfect home, it is time to begin your search! Narrow down your search by determining your desired location and preferred neighborhoods in the area. Next, browse homes that fit your style and price range, as this will help you in the next step: determining what home size, floor plan, features and community amenities appeal the most to you. Our comprehensive photo galleries, interactive floorplans and immersive 360 Look™ experiences to help you understand how our homes fit your needs,
