Look into your local building department. They'll have all rights and wrongs for building your house. You'll also have to find an Architect for plans and a few General Contractors to bid on the project
You don’t need to be building a house if the first resource you are turning to is the coli.com.
.
Reddit and Houzz.com have good forums on folks building houses...
but seriously, since you have land, you’ll have to research build-to-print builders in your area first. Find out their reps by googling them and and understand that the more expensive, often the better they are.
You need to find house plans that you like and will fit within you plot. You’ll then have to buy the plans... not cheap. This don’t even scratch the surface for permitting, utilities, etc which the builder will usually handle. You’ll have to have all of your loan/cash lined up as this type of build usually requires payments at certain stages of the build (builder loan). It’s critical to find a reputable builder that won’t stiff you mid build...the legal ramifications/pursuits could kill you if a builder skips out without finishing.
The easiest route is to build with a national builder on their land...usually you just get a loan and they build a turn-key product where you just move in.

I got 11 acres, but the land has to be cleared.. not all 11 acres just enough for a crib & road. What do I need to know? I need help
My tip is to find you a beautiful strong QUEEN to have your back.
Cuz everyone knows you can’t build a home without a woman holding you down

You seem to have inherited this unexpectedly.
Get with the city to get your plat lines and figure out your mill rate and tax info.
Zoning will help you figure out what and how to build. You will need to figure out where your tie in for utilities are.
I suggest getting with a realtor and consult.
Most builders will have a turn key approach to new construction...start there also.
HIT UP FHA. THEY HAVE LEGIT CONTRACTORS AND RESOURCES TO HELP YOU OUT. YOU MIGHT EVEN SCORE SOME GRANTS AND FUNDING YOU DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT.
GET A BARNDOMINIUM SO I CAN LIVE VICARIOUSLY THROUGH YOU.
