Make sure your land is zoned for the type of structure you're wanting to build by calling the city/county planning and permits office.  Find a builder.  Find a lender.  The builder will know who is lending money for construction.  The lender will know who the more reputable builders are in the area.  It's easiest if the builder and the lender have an existing relationship.  Find someone to draft the build plans (draftsman, structural engineer, or architect).  That's the super high-level plan to get started with your first build.
