Is building new construction profitable in MA today?

[Gert Dervishaj]

Hello,
I am thinking of getting in single family home new construction since an opportunity has come my way. But I am having trouble finding good sources of info for my area specifically. If anyone is from MA, specifically Worcester county, what are the costs I will need to consider to build a 2000-2250 sq ft home? I know that costs vary in terms of construction from site prep  to utilities (or lack thereof) to finish work, etc, but is there a good rule of thumb I can work off of? If not, how do builders estimate cost of building? Also, does anyone have any opinions on modular vs stick built? 
Thanks in advance!
