Canyon Partners Real Estate Boosts Bridge Lending Activity with Refinancing of Los Angeles Multifamily Project

August 26, 2025

Los Angeles, CA (August 26, 2025) – Canyon Partners Real Estate LLC (“Canyon”) today announced that it has provided a $58 million senior bridge loan to an affiliate of Helio Group (“Helio”) for the refinancing of Arya, a 119-unit Class-A multifamily property located in Los Angeles.

Built in 2024, Arya is a 6-story podium multifamily project featuring high-quality finishes and luxury common area amenities including a penthouse-level, state-of-the-art fitness center, co-working lounge, and an expansive rooftop deck with views of Downtown Los Angeles and the Pacific Ocean. Arya represents one of five Helio-developed multifamily projects located in the Greater Culver City submarket since 2018.

Arya benefits from its desirable location within the greater Culver City submarket of Los Angeles, an area supported by a robust employment base and an abundance of attractive retail, dining, and entertainment offerings. Notably, Pizzeria Sei, which ranked second on the “50 Top Pizza” list of best pizzerias in the U.S. in 2025, is slated to open its second location on the ground floor of Arya.

“At Helio, we strive to raise the standard for multifamily living. Arya is a prime example. From the rooftop deck with sweeping views, to the exceptionally built residences and co-working lounge, every detail was crafted to reflect the energy and creativity of the surrounding community that we are proud to be part of,” said Simon Lazar, co-founder of Helio.

“Over the last several years, we have continued to see strong demand and a growing desire from tenants to live in the surrounding area, and with Arya’s thoughtful design and high-quality amenities, we expect it to continue to be well received in the market,” added Sam Mostadim, also co-founder of Helio.

Canyon is actively expanding its deployment of bridge debt capital on commercial real estate assets in primary and secondary markets across the United States. In the last three months, Canyon has closed over $290 million of senior bridge loans across multifamily, senior housing, and mixed-use assets, including over $130 million in Southern California.
