Developer purchased property, but it's just sitting vacant

Hello!  Just looking for advice.  There's a house on my street that a developer purchased, presumably with the goal of adding units to the property and either selling them as condos or turning it into a triplex rental.  The property has been vacant for ~8 months (vacant being a relative term, lots of squatters).  I'm assuming they are getting drawings, permits, etc... or getting cold feet?

I found the name, address, and phone number of the LLC that owns the property. I'd like to contact them to see if they are thinking of unloading the property. I'm not necessarily in a position to purchase it, but who knows? At the very least it's great experience at contacting an owner. I'm looking for suggestions on the best way to contact them. Any other advice is welcome as well.

Thanks for your thoughts!
