How did medieval peasants decide where to build their houses

When a person moved out of their parents' house, they needed a house. How was it decided where this house would be located? For example, did they just pick the next available spot on a path? Were there peasant level political considerations? Were there coveted house locations? If so how were these conflicts resolved?
