how to structure deal when you are offering your hustle

[Timothy Woodland]

I have been listening to a lot of BiggerPockets podcasts and have been hearing the term syndication a lot. I'm curious as to how these work. The reason I am looking to become educated on this topic is ultimately I would like to structure a deal for apartment buildings in the future. That being said, how would one structure a deal with an investor(s) when what one is offering is sweat equity/hustle in the deal. 

Are investors interested in working with others who can bring certain qualities other than money to the table? If so, what types of qualities do experienced investors look for in partnerships?
