@Gregory McKinley I would suggest a few things before you even get a deal or start looking for them:-Build your brand (website, thought leadership platform)-Attend local events and those put on by syndicators-Start telling everyone what your doing-Partner (connect with more experience syndicators and see how you can add value to them and in return they may want to partner on a deal with you when you get one)By doing these steps you will naturally start to raise money and have your immediate inner circle primed for when an opportunity does come.

Take in lots of info from the other investors and that will help you decide and then it makes the next step more of a natural progression than a mystery.
