Can you offer some insight on how you raise capital.

[Cashmere Robinson]

I'm looking to raise capital for an apartment building I'd like to purchase in return giving a way equity to the investors. Can anyone give insight on how to locate potential investor? Any great books covering the subject?

There really aren't any good books on the subject.  Sam Freshman's book here:

Principles of Real Estate Syndication

is a decent introduction.  The best way to learn is by doing and getting someone experienced in the business to show you how it works.  Find out a way to provide value for someone like this and learn by doing.
