Challenge: Profile Lookup

Link to the challenge:

2 
for (let i = 0; i < contacts.length; i++) {

    if (name === contacts[i].firstName) {

      if (contacts[i].hasOwnProperty(prop)) {

        return contacts[i][prop];

      } else {

        return "No such property";

      }

    }

    return "No such contact";

  }

where is the mistake coming from

Your code will only ever look at the first item in the contacts list. Remember that when your code hits a return, the function is done running.
