First Property Ideas for Young Professionals in Early 20's

I was wondering what you guys think is the best way to get started on the real estate investing path. I would like to purchase my first project sooner rather than later, but I don't know what is the right call for my situation. 

I currently live in a condo with my brother (who I am looking to go into real estate with) that is less than a year old, in a building with 20 units or so, in Coralville, Iowa. We both have careers and are putting as much money away as we can in our IRA, 401k, etc, while paying the mortgage and our student loan debt. We have some capital, but not a lot.

What do you guys think is a good next step?
