How should I approach an investor with a potential deal?

[Gerardo Garcia]

I am trying to get into the real estate business but I do not have the money to fund any deal on my own. So I decided that my best option is to find a local investor and bring them a deal so that I can learn from someone who is experienced in the business and can help guide me in the right direction. What are some things investors are looking for when someone comes to them with a potential deal?
