Hello BP!

My name is Shane and I am excited to be part of this awesome community! I learned of BP while doing some online research about a year ago. 

I am educated as a CPA and for the last 5 years I have been doing management consulting with large multi-national corporations for a large consulting firm. I am originally from Toronto, Canada but have been living in Chicago since 2010. 

I have completed my business plan with my objectives, goals and investment criteria. I am buy-and-hold investor looking to get into the multi-unit residential (6-10 units) space in the suburbs near Chicago. I have attended a few REIA meetups in Chicago and continue to research my desired sub-markets, commercial lending standards, etc. I am hoping to network and meet some local seasoned real estate professionals as I begin my journey in greater Chicago!

I look forward to connecting with many of you!

Shane
