Happy Friday Everyone,

I'm Edward Chan. I am a Michigan State engineering grad (GO GREEN!) with an interest of owning and investing in real estate. Very new to the rental property investment game. Planning to buy my first rental property soon (not sure on MFH or SFH). Originally from Michigan, but I reside in the DMV area currently. Please reach out to me if you are in the DMV area or around Michigan! Connect with me even if you are not in those areas either!

Looking forward to connecting and being apart of the BP community!
