Hey, when you take vast amounts of pictures of house stuff, can you put them up somewhere. I've been considering doing something similar (take masses of photos to work out what I want in a house), but hey, if someone else is doing the legwork... ;)

Actually, you might want to see here and here. Note that you certainly won't be able to completely avoid having to trawl display houses, tile and carpet centres, etc. If you're feeling particularly lazy you might be able to get away with doing some of it (particularly choosing house plans and finance) online. Just make sure you see the final product in the flesh before you commit.

Don't forget that it's usually a better idea to determine what you want before ahead of time. Also, being able to talk to somebody who's built before (preferably multiple times) will be terribly helpful, and will likely save you thousands of dollars, eg. by knowing which variations the building is fleecing you blind on.
