HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY
FOR A NIGHT OUT
LA Native’s fave spot for dinner Il Cielo
Named the most romantic restaurant in Los Angeles, Il Cielo, or the sky, is more than just an Italian restaurant, it’s a charming landmark. This Valentine’s Day, you and your partner can enjoy a three-course meal in their enchanting Tuscan cottage, where the beautiful gardens will be carpeted in snow, and your table cascaded with rose petals and garnished with a tall taper candle. Book your experience here: https://www.ilcielo.com/reservations/
FOR A NIGHT IN
For a romantic night in, try our favorite great but very budget friendly (under $7) TJ’s wines, order some authentic Italian flavors from Locanda Veneta on Grubhub, stream our cheesy rom-com movie recommendation: Holidate. https://www.netflix.com/title/81034553
TJ’s wine: Les Portes de Bordeaux Sauvignon Blanc, Espiral Vinho Verde, Emma Reichart Rosé, Villa Cerrina Montepulciano d’Abruzzo

BEST WAYS TO INCREASE PROPERTY VALUE
Trends still show that light neutral colors and contemporary finishes are the most popular
There is no better investment than a fresh coat of paint on the interior and exterior
Curb appeal, think cheerful landscaping and exterior facade finishes
Updating light fixtures and replacing bulbs with bright clear tones
