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.

Keep going brother!! 

If your investors are willing to do work and bring money, then both of you can bring money and effort to the table and split it 50/50 (that’s what my brother and I have done on our partnership).

Most medical professionals don't typically gravitate to real estate since it requires a little more time and effort but ultimately it's the fastest way to become wealthy.FYI, I have a few brothers who are dentists and doctors so I've worked with them on quite a few opportunities.There are some good comments here on the post and if you're already in your own practice then definitely look to buy the building you're in or plan on setting up your practice in a commercial building that you own and can have a professional management team rent out the remainder of the space.If you're not to the point of starting your own practice and buying a building that's okay it will take time.  

Could I be a co-borrower on a loan my brother is trying to get and it still be considered owner occupied since he will be living there but I will not or is that fraud?

. - that’s the goal, brother!

Welcome brother!

It's a brother in law deal as are most of the agencies.

My brother in law is an Attorney so I can have him review afterwards.
