After doing my due diligence by looking through public records, I have found out that there is a huge discrepancy in the advertised lot size, the tax record size and the actual size by 40%.

The reason for this is what seems to be going on in a lot of other cities that the rental demand dramatically increased, but unlike other areas in Tennessee and other major cities, Chattanooga has not use all of the government funding to redevelop the public housing sites in the city. 

Wish the VA would publicize this more, because I (and many other landlords I am sure) would love to support veterans in some small way, and hopefully find a good tenant in the process.

Also if you end up with a complaint before a real estate commission, fair housing commission, anything of that sort...you are by and large guilty until proven innocent, as opposed to the opposite you would enjoy a member of the public in a court room.Fines for innocent mistakes can be drastic. 

Do not spend another dime on this property until that question is answered.It could be something as simple as an outstanding fine for an overgrown lawn or as disastrous as environmental contamination leaching into a public water supply.  

If a property manager is going to lease, rent, list, procure prospects or negotiate, assist, or offer to perform any of those acts, or if he or she operates, manages or rents any building or portions of buildings to the public as tenants (other than a custodian, caretaker or janitor) he or she will need a broker's license.

Instead of paying for reviews, build value with the review reader in publicly responding to it very professionally and neutrally, apologize (whether you're in the wrong or not), address them by name, and encourage them to reach out to you or say I have / had reached out to you, I'd like to make this right.  

My wife put our listing on a public forum for opinion and majority of people said our pictures were not that great.
