Question about new construction cost estimates

My desire is to buy some land, then build a house. However, I'm struggling to estimate the cost of building a new construction to see if I can do what I want with the budget I have.

A few points: - not planning on a development/ developer home. - probably in the country on a few acres (well / septic likely) - plan is for mid century ranch, approx 2000 sqft

What's the best way to get cost estimates? Find a builder (and how)? Find a similar design and pay someone to do a cost estimate?

I have an agent that is helping me look for land, my plan was to buy land first, then build a few years later, but im starting to realize that might not be the best plan. Having an idea about the house will inform the land purchase.

Thanks for any advice.

We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...
