Presenting a deal to a potential Investor/Partner

[James Lewis]

What is the best way to present a deal to a potential investor/partner?

Right now, I am looking around on the MLS and wholesaler lists for my first deal. I am starting to get an eye out for what is a good deal or not. I need to set up some financing so that when a great deal comes across I can act on it. I have a few people in mind who would be willing to invest or partner if the numbers make sense. They are also buying into me as well as my business partner. What are the best ways to present a potential deal to someone who is interested in putting money up as an investor? I want to come across as professional, competent and legit!
