Another option to this is to set up a rectangular (sic!) grid (View > Show Grid) and work with *iew > Snap To Grid option set. The rectangular grid can be easily set via AIPrefs (Windows, CS6) or Adobe Illustrator Cloud Prefs (Windows, CC) or Adobe Illustrator Prefs (Mac, CS6) or Adobe Illustrator Cloud Prefs (Mac, CC) file located under Adobe Illustrator XX Settings.

You need enable the Snap Option, and Smart Guides

In your case, Snap to Point is the case (View > Snap to Point)
.
And the Smart Guides (View > Smart Guides)
