I've reached out to the country to see what the process would be to get the lot divided into two.

(I'm interested in the NJ market along the PATH line)Eventually, this will be integrated into a corp or llc, along with a real estate management firm.

Certainly real estate syndication can be a great way to share risk, pool equity and acquire larger assets but as @Jay Hinrichs noted if you chose that path you enter into a new world of regulatory scrutiny.  We have put together syndications to buy multi-family assets and have also participated in syndications sponsored by other investors as a passive investor.

Hope you find your success path. 

Hello all,Really interested in meeting others who have taken this path and done so with a large or budding family.

I've heard that the owners live out of the country, any contact info for the apartment goes back to the buildings office.

Some paths are direct stepping stones, whereas others are not.

At least in PA, the state contract does not allow assignments so you would need to explain to someone why they need an addendum to sign with you.

Aside from that reading and executing on what you say you'll to to build relationships slowly is probably your best path.
