Episode 1: The Real Rebuild: Project Introduction

If you're a long time Build Show fan, you definitely remember the Real Remodel: Matt's attempt to buy and flip a home for his family that didn't exactly go as planned. In this series we will take a deep dive into all the twists and turns that came with that project and examine what Matt learned from the experience. As builders, tradespeople, and human beings, we all make mistakes and in this series, we hope that you can learn from some of ours so that we, as a community, can know better and build better!

Special Thanks to Our Sponsors!
