Extreme Builds Season 1 Episode 10 Smith's 350 Qualifying from Las Vegas Motor Speedway in Las Vegas, NV (LIVE)

Alex and Joanie are first time homeowners who have out-grown their tiny rental and are building their dream home on a hillside property in Echo Park, California. They consider themselves homesteaders and have planned for a house that disturbs the land as little as possible including building around a tree and putting it in their son's bedroom. They have an extremely tight budget of only $600,000 but their project is riddled with vandalism and theft, which leads to Joanie planning a stakeout to catch the perpetrators. In addition to theft, they have a slow build and a list of change orders that is affecting their budget and consider firing their contractor and going it alone.
