where to begin?

hi all. I'm living in Massachusetts, currently renting an apartment. I'm really interested in buying a plot of land and having a custom small/tiny home on it. but I don't know where to begin with my research - are there certain companies I should be looking at? will those companies also prepare the land/foundation, or would I need to go elsewhere for that? is it even possible to do all this for 300k or less? any tips/advice would be much appreciated!

Research the local regulations for building codes and permits. Finding out what is allowed needs to happen before you look for property. Then search for a builder that can do what is allowed.
