IMT Residential Announces Pre-Leasing at Via Avanti in Sherman Oaks
SHERMAN OAKS, CA. August 31, 2026 — IMT Residential, a leading nationwide apartment operator, is proud to announce that Via Avanti, its newest community in Sherman Oaks, California, is now pre-leasing.
Developed by IMT and located near the Sherman Oaks Galleria, Via Avanti holds particular significance for the company, bringing its vision for exceptional apartment living to life in a location closely connected to IMT’s history and presence in the San Fernando Valley.
The history of the project site stretches back more than two decades. IMT Residential acquired the property in May 2019 and began working with the City of Los Angeles and members of the local community to re-envision its future. Through that process, the project evolved into the modern, transit-oriented mixed-use community taking shape today.
Via Avanti features 325 apartment homes with refined interiors and Italian-inspired details. Residences include one- and two-bedroom floorplans, with warm, contemporary finishes and thoughtfully designed spaces created for modern California living.
The community offers an exceptional collection of amenities centered around wellness, recreation, and connection. Residents will enjoy a resort-style pool and outdoor lounge, an expansive fitness and wellness experience, including a sauna and cold plunge, collaborative workspaces, a resident clubhouse, outdoor dining areas, and dedicated spaces for pets. Via Avanti is also designed to achieve LEED Gold and Fitwel certifications, incorporating sustainability into the community’s design and operation.
Complementing the residential experience, more than 36,000 square feet of restaurant, retail, and specialty grocery space will bring dining, shopping, and everyday essentials directly into the community. The integrated retail experience is an important part of Via Avanti’s vision, creating a place where home and neighborhood meet effortlessly.
“Via Avanti represents the culmination of years of listening, collaboration, and thoughtful planning,” says Joseph Elhabr, Vice President at IMT Residential. “Our goal from the beginning was to create something that would contribute meaningfully to Sherman Oaks and complement the character of the surrounding neighborhood. Reaching this milestone is incredibly rewarding, and we’re proud to see Via Avanti become a reality.”
With pre-leasing now underway, Via Avanti marks a significant new chapter for IMT Residential in Los Angeles and the culmination of years of planning, collaboration, and development in Sherman Oaks.
Prospective residents can now explore available residences, floorplans, and additional community details on the Via Avanti website or connect with the Via Avanti Leasing Team to learn more.
