I've called a  couple of attorneys and no body seems to know how.  

The curriculum encompasses all areas of real estate including finance, appraisal, development, asset management, market analysis, law and the regulatory environment and urban land economics.

Because genetics handed me a bigger body and you a smaller one?

They may want a small fee to write a letter but hopefully you can get someone to take it on a contingency basis.Before retaining an attorney, you may want to ask them about filing a complaint with the Alabama Real Estate Commission and any other regulatory agency that might regulate the landlord. 

Any body that said High Risk = High Return was a complete fool. 

Unfortunately I do not have access to much capital, however, I am able-bodied and can perform cosmetic repairs, and will be moving up to heavier stuff once I can get more exposure to it.

Real estate brokers typically don't obtain a purchase contract or option in their name, and sell the contract or option.This is not to say that doing the above as a business model does not require a real estate license (state requirements, laws and interpretations vary), bu,t that if you don't appear to be doing what real estate broker's do you are much less likely to be sued, accused, or catch the eye of the regulatory authorities.  

This implies that a local agency would be a local code agency/government body, not a state-owned corporation.Also, California Code in another piece of legislation does have a definition:https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes_displaySection.xhtml?

Hi Everyone,Could any body please give me some advises for my first investment?

@Adrian Provenza An overdose isn't that extreme, if you've had to deal with a dead body in an STR prior to the overdose.
