I want to start to make buildings that look real but when every I build all I can do is low polly builds that look good but not what I am looking for. I have started to use textures more but I do not know were I can get good ones. Can someone help me by telling me some tips or plugins I can use to make the buildings look more real.

Short answer to this is practice and learn is a part in improving, or learn how to accomplish these types of styles but there’s a bunch of tips and suggestions you can learn, from what has been suggested below to dive in that style I think people normally use textures and meshes to accomplish this if I’m not mistaken.
Meshes and textures are important to accomplish this as for meshes they shouldn’t be shunned or pulled away. You can make your own meshes using 3D softwares such as the free source one Blender supposedly and upload your meshes directly into Roblox.
However I’m not no realistic developer I think it’s more into using textures and meshes. As well for getting high quality textures people use Textures.com to find some ones that you could accomplish these realistic looks.

If there’s useful information or tips or you’re still interested in seeing how to accomplish this style, you can look at existing topics and read the information that people have provided there instead of posting another similar topic.

One thing that there’s very little shame in doing is using picture references of things. This is particularly true in the case you want to get better.
Want to be a realistic builder? Look at real photos of real buildings and try to recreate them to the best of your ability. After a bit of time you’ll pick up on how a real building looks and it will be a lot easier to make something that looks real. Same thing goes for other things, not just buildings.

if you’re going for the core features (rotation, resize, move, select) in Studio, I definitely think you should look at plugins and picture references.
I started off the same, I don’t 3D model or use texturing in my builds but I use a vary between a lot of plugins and references on google.
If you’re going for a cartoon house, search up a cartoon house on google images and replicate it in Studio.
