Recently my brother has approached me about investing together. 

I also got used to my husband (electrician) and brother in law (carpenter) doing most of the work so even with my higher material costs, we still ended up in the black.

@Lester Carbonell ditto to what my brother @Luc Boiron said.

Have a brother/sister who inherited house, brother is being a jerk, and sister has legal right by herself to sell me house, but brother lives in.  

Often, you'll find that potential rental income and taxes do not move in tandem.My brother is a realtor in Northern NJ and does some business in your direction if you're interested in gauging inventory.

I did not plan on getting into rentals for at least another two years but a neighbor down the street passed away and his brother wanted the house sold ASAP.  

My brother and I are fortunate enough to be able to start a Rehab business.

I have a back door of a rental unit that has a large glass section (as seen below); and I wonder if I am potentially liable on either side if...1) Someone just breaks the glass, reaches in, easily unlocks the deadbolt from the other side, opens the door, walks in - and cleans out the place...2) Or to prevent this, I put a deadbolt on the door that is keyed on both sides, but then there's a fire and the door cannot be opened for escape without a key!

I'm currently in the process of receiving my MA real estate license and my brother has been an agent for a number of years now.

My brother-in-law and I are starting a real estate investing business, focusing first on flipping local properties and eventually adding rentals, as well.
