The Star Realtor of ‘Selling Sunset' Still Wants to Sell You an L.A. Mansion
HIGHLY SPECIFIC services surround Jason Oppenheim's offices on Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles. There's an outlet just for working out face muscles (FaceGym), a storefront for scalp care (Purelux Scalp Spa) and a special place for lip treatments (Cupid Lips). And those are just boutiques from the neck up.
Oppenheim, 48, the real-estate broker and star of the reality TV show 'Selling Sunset,' is at home in this self-improvement mecca. The rest of the country just watched parts of Los Angeles go up in flames and is waiting for the city to rebuild, but for some, the recovery is not only about bricks and mortar. It's about restoring the city's image as an aspirational paradise. If it's got money and sparkle, folks like Oppenheim want to promote it. His future—and the ranks of those selling the L.A. dream more than its reality—depends on it.

Sacramento Railyards soccer stadium plan faces key city council vote
A key Sacramento city council vote deciding the future of Republic FC's new soccer stadium is set for Tuesday. Plans for Republic FC's new home, an expandable 12,000-seat facility, can't come to life without figuring out how to cover infrastructure in the area – things like roadways, pedestrian bike lanes, and traffic lights that the city estimates will to cost north of $90 million. Tuesday's vote will be to approve a special tax district that the city is looking to use to cover the cost. "I think this one is a good investment. We're not investing, subsidizing the stadium," said Sacramento Mayor Kevin McCarty. The Railyards development will cost an estimated $321 million at least, according to city numbers, with most of it privately funded, like Republic FC's stadium and the area around it. Developers of the project – including Indomitable Ventures, formed by Republic FC – would pay for the infrastructure costs up front, then be reimbursed through funds generated by the special tax district. "We're subsidizing the infrastructure by giving a return on property taxes that but for this project wouldn't be generated anyways," McCarty said. If approved by the council, the deal would commit the city to paying more than $90 million to the project developers in the form of future tax revenue from the soccer stadium and central shops. McCarty says construction would start this year if the plan passes. The stadium is planned to be opened by 2027.
