With the rise of Covid in the past few years we have all found ourselves spending a lot more time at home or in our yards. What used to be a place to return to after a long day now serves multiple purposes to people all day, every day. The home is now an office, school, restaurant, gym, playroom and more. Spending so much time at home leaves people to look at their property and want to make changes. Research has found that 70% of Americans have completed a home improvement project during the pandemic. Adding to the renovation rush are homeowners who are now realizing the amount of equity they have and are looking to increase the value of their home before putting it on the market.

My name is Craig Michaels, as a Realtor at BHG Desert Lifestyle Properties I partner with my clients to help them achieve the highest value for their home. If you’re looking for ways to add value to your property or simply want a fresh look, I want to invite you to join me for a monthly event, “Wine & Design.” This fun, FREE event happens from 5:30PM to 7:30PM on the last Wednesday of each month beginning August 31, at the Palm Desert Design Center located at 73-185 suite A Highway 111, Palm Desert. Established in 2021 by owner Arus Melkonyan, the Palm Desert Design Center has quickly grown to become the choice resource for homeowners, builders, architects, and designers. They are a major west coast importer, wholesaler, and retailer of unique and exotic products. For home remodeling or new construction, they are the exclusive Versace dealer for tiles, slabs, and medallions. They also carry porcelain, natural stone mosaics, flooring, vanities, hand blown glass faucets and Italian Kitchen Cabinets

If you join us at Wine & Design you can enjoy complimentary champagne, wine and cheese while you collaborate with local interior and exterior designers. On Wednesday August 31st, our featured interior designer is Carol Adolph from Indian Wells. She will share the latest in design trends for your home and some of her DYI secrets. You’ll also discover effortless ways to increase your curb appeal. First Seed Landscape & Concrete will be on hand to inspire your landscape ideas and share tips on lawn care and concrete designs for your yard. They also do maintenance and palm tree trimming for your property. First Seed Landscape & Concrete is owned and operated by Pablo Castro, a local Marine Corps Vet with two tours to Kuwait and Iraq. His business infrastructure is highly influenced by the training, leadership & values reinforced while in service.

Just added, the event will include fine art from D Gallery in Palm Desert. Everything you need for your interior and exterior all in one place. If you have questions about the event or any real estate related questions you can reach Craig Michaels at (760) 880-3848
