CHARLOTTE, N.C., Jan. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- AllBridge Investments announced today it has successfully completed the sale of its majority equity stake in Helix Financial Group LLC (Helix) to BlackRock, Inc. The sale of its ownership in the boutique commercial real estate consulting and technology firm marks the successful conclusion of AllBridge's eighteen month investment in the firm.

"This transaction provides Helix's management team and their credit analytics and underwriting products new avenues for growth under Blackrock's leadership, while allowing us to increase our focus on our central business of analyzing and structuring investments in real estate properties, collateralized mortgage backed securities, and other real estate-related investments.
