investing into a syndication

[Matt Belzile]

Anyone in Canada have experience putting money with a syndication? This would be my first time and I am wondering what to look for and what kind of questions I can ask to prob their legitimacy. 

Also, this is for a development project which I read are more risky and why the returns seem more attractive, so any pitfalls I should look out for would be appreciated. 

Thanks in advance!
