Octane Lands $52M Refi for SoCal Luxury Community

IPA arranged the interest-only loan for this redeveloped office building.

Octane Realty & Development has refinanced Arista Glendale, a 98-unit luxury community in Glendale, Calif., with a $52 million loan from Dwight Capital. Institutional Property Advisors, a division of Marcus & Millichap, arranged the transaction.

The non-recourse, interest-only loan, which has a 67.5 percent loan-to-value ratio, is set to mature in 2031.

The asset came online in 1986 as an office building. It was redeveloped into multifamily in 2023, according to Yardi Matrix.

Shared amenities comprise a rooftop terrace and pool, a clubhouse, a fitness center, electric charging stations and an outdoor courtyard with barbecue grills. In addition, the property includes a 200-plus-space parking garage.

Arista Glendale is at 520 N. Central Ave., with multiple dining options within walking distance. The Glendale Galleria mall and a Trader Joe’s are within 1 mile of the property.

In December last year, Amidi Real Estate Group obtained a $100-plus million loan for one of its multifamily luxury properties, also in Glendale. JLL Capital Markets arranged that financing for the asset.
