That is a big step and that is awesome that you are even considering it. It shows just how far in your recovery you have come. I wish you great luck on your house hunt.
I too am in the process of "looking" at houses. I really can't buy until our divorce is final but it feels good just to "look". I am scared to death of being financially responsible alone for it but I know someway somehow I can do it. I will make it work.
