Our Story
Yuan and Lloyd have been friends, business partners, and real estate investors since their mid-20s, completing over $50M in acquisitions and developments across Nova Scotia and Quebec. In 2022, they formed Kirin to streamline the management of their own portfolio.
They are also building and operating two other Nova Scotia Based Business: Helio Urban Development ( a fast-growing homebuilding firm ) and Casa Scotia ( a leading vacation rental Investment and management service ).
Combining these experiences, it was only natural for Yuan and Lloyd to systematize their property management methods and offer them to outside clients seeking higher returns and less hassle.
- Yuan earned a master’s in Electrical Engineering from University of Pennsylvania , specializing in building robust analytical systems and date science. Currently working as a Data Engineer at ACUE.
- Lloyd holds a master’s degree from Yale School of Management and Undergrads in Petroleum Engineering from Texas A&M. Prior to being a full time Entreprenur, he worked as an Investment Banker at Merrill Lynch BOA Securities as well as Associate at the real estate private equity arm of PSP.
Together, they blend on-the-ground real estate expertise with Deep analytics—allowing Kirin to set profitable rents, minimize vacancies, and handle day-to-day operations with unprecedented efficiency. If you’re seeking a truly modern property management partner in Nova Scotia, you’ve come to the right place.
