Kathy Hilton is building a fabulous new home from the ground up, but she has no intention of living in it when it's done. 

"This is one of my projects," The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills newcomer explained to Sutton Stracke in the preview clip above from the show's October 6 episode. "I am going to sell this." 

Although Kathy once planned to move into the home with her husband, Rick Hilton, she decided to take it on as a project when Rick expressed that he wanted to stay in their current Bel-Air house. "This house, we bought, Rick and I, for ourselves. But Rick goes, 'Don't you have like all these sentimental memories here and everything? I mean this house is perfect for us,'" she recalled in an interview. "It really means a lot for him to stay here, so I'm fine with that."

The 18,000-square-foot home is the "best of the best," Kathy said. Of course, that comes at a hefty price. When Sutton asked what the price range of the home would eventually be, Kathy shared, "Somewhere around 52, 53 million." 

Sutton was blown away by the in-progress property. "This house is huge," she said. "I could fit like three of my houses inside of this one house. Not with my tennis court, now that would be unfair." Later, she added, "This is Kathy. This has like the Kathy Hilton stamp of approval on it."
