Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez are building a home together in Los Angeles.

The showbiz couple have decided to purchase a plot of land in Tarzana with a view of the San Fernando Valley, and plan to begin building on the site soon.

A source told Hollywoodlife.com: “Justin and Selena are building a massive home together in Tarzana. It’s just a dirt lot right now with some pipes, but it has a generous panoramic view of the San Fernando Valley.”

Building the home there would mean Selena could stay close to her mother, who lives in the nearby Woodland Hills area.

Justin recently revealed one of the things he likes most about the former ‘Wizards of Waverly Place’ actress was that she was a good listener.

He said: “I'm attracted to someone who's a good listener, who is there for me and who pays attention to what I am saying. Also, I'm very affectionate so need someone affectionate like me."

However, he also likes her physical appearance.

He added: “She's hot. Of course, every guy likes their girl to be hot, which Selena is. But I like to mess around and pull jokes, so I like to be around people who make me laugh.”
