ECLIPSE

LAVAL

[ Context ]

Eclipse Phase 1 is a newly constructed residential building located in Laval, positioned near major transportation links and strong commercial nodes.
Despite the advantages of its location, the asset struggled early on: the building lacked a cohesive brand identity, the tenant mix didn’t match the product, and the absence of amenities made it difficult to compete with nearby offerings.

With rising tenant expectations in the Laval market, Eclipse needed a clear narrative, stronger leasing performance, and a resident experience capable of supporting long-term stability.

[ The Ask ]

The ownership group brought us in with a clear mandate: stabilize the property quickly, reposition it for long-term growth, and rebuild resident trust. We got to work on four key challenges:

Rebrand the asset

Create a differentiated identity that positioned Eclipse as a modern, high-quality living option—even without heavy amenities.

Fix leasing velocity

Transform a stalled lease-up into a steady, predictable occupancy engine.

Reduce operational inefficiencies

Address mismanagement-driven OpEx bloat while maintaining quality of life for residents.

Rebuild resident confidence

Deliver a stronger tenant experience to increase satisfaction and retention.
