Should I buy a rental investment property for my brothers

Hi my 2 brothers is currently renting and paying 1500$/month in a property owned by someone else. He has bad credit. I thought maybe I should get the benefit by investing in a property that he can live in and pay rent to me instead of some other random person. 

Is this a good idea? Or should I buy a rental property from a non family member. 

I know he will be consistant in payments. One thing is one of my brother is not the best with keeping things maintained. The other brother is a plumber so would fix issues on his own anyways.
