Politicians ... watch and learn how to git 'er done in D.C.!
Heidi and her boyfriend Martin Kristen have been house hunting all over L.A. recently -- and sources tell us they're looking for a "family home" that has enough space for the couple and Heidi's 4 kids.
We're told Klum knows exactly what she wants -- she wants to be east of the 405 Freeway and needs 4 bedrooms for the kids that are ALL located on the same floor as the master.
Enter Katy Perry -- who still owns that incredible mansion in the Hollywood Hills that she purchased in 2012 with then-husband Russell Brand ... which has everything Klum is looking for.
Klum and Kristen biked over to the place last week to check out the 7 bedroom, 11 bathroom estate ... and we're told they were impressed.
It could be a perfect situation for Katy -- who recently reduced the asking price of her sprawling dream palace to $6.495 million hoping to motivate buyers.
Whoever snatches up the place is gonna get a helluva property -- it's like a real-life castle, complete with a lagoon-style pool and views to die for.
There's even room if Seal wants to crash ... though we're guessing that probably won't happen.

?Cops today entered the home of Aaron Hernandez for the second time this week in connection to the homicide of Odin Lloyd. Law enforcement arrived Saturday afternoon to Hernandez's Massachusetts home with two police dogs and what appeared to evidence gathering equipment, according to reports.
The Patriots' tight-end is being investigated? in connection to the recent murder of Odin -- a semi-pro footballer who was found shot dead in a park Monday near Hernandez's home. Cops previously searched the home Thursday.
According to reports, law enforcement is investigating three specific things: why Hernandez's security system was destroyed, why he handed his cell-phone to cops in broken pieces and why he hired a cleaning crew on Monday to scrub down his house ... all items which could have contained key pieces of evidence.
Police left Hernandez's house at approximately 5:45 PM ET, carrying approximately 15 bags of apparent evidence.

Chris Brown is firing back at the City of L.A. -- claiming the gov. has NO RIGHT to force him to remove the graffiti art on the front of his L.A. home because it's protected by the 1st Amendment. Brown just filed an appeal with the city -- telling officials the bill they're trying to stick him with for having an "unpermitted" mural on the front wall of his Hollywood Hills home is pure B.S..
According to the legal documents, obtained by TMZ, Brown claims the city is wrongly trying to nail him for having an illegal "sign" -- when the graffiti is art that "[enhances] the architectural and aesthetic features of the residential property."
Translation -- my artwork makes my house look dope, son!
Then Chris drops the constitutional bomb -- arguing, "The murals are a reflection of [my] aesthetic taste and a reflection of free speech and expression protected by the First Amendment to the United States Constitution."
Brown's case is now in the hands of the Dept. of Building and Safety's board of appeals -- and if they shut him down, he can bring the fight to L.A. County Superior Court.
In fact, there's a chance ... albeit a small chance ... that Brown's case could go all the way up to the Supreme Court if he's not willing to back down.
Jane Lynch's 3-year marriage is coming to an end ... and a contributing factor may well have been a major remodel. Lynch and her wife, Dr. Lara Embry, were in the middle of top-to-bottom renovation of their Hollywood Hills home when the marriage fell apart.
So you scoff at the notion a remodel could torpedo a relationship? Well in your face, because the L.A. Times even ran a story explaining that the stress caused by remodeling ranks somewhere between infidelity and meddling mother-in-laws.
You may also recall ... the marriage of WWE champ John Cena also imploded during a major remodel.
Short story -- a new bathroom or a new wife? Your choice.
