Tennessee sale costs
Tennessee charges a state realty transfer tax when a deed is recorded. The rate is 37 cents for each $100 of the price paid or the property’s value, whichever is greater. State law makes the buyer responsible for the tax, and the county Register of Deeds collects it for the state. The buyer states the price or value under oath on the deed. Certain transfers are exempt, including some transfers between spouses, divorce settlements, an executor’s deed carrying out a will, and transfers into or out of a revocable living trust.
Before you sell, ask the closing or title company to check the deed, price or value, and whether an exemption applies to your transfer. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Tennessee’s realty transfer tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes and share of current property taxes are separate.

The Town of Greeneville Building / Code Enforcement Office handles the Town permit and Property Maintenance complaint routes listed on Town forms. Greene County Building Safety & Codes is the county permit, code and construction-inspection contact. Because the Town and County are separate jurisdictions, confirm the property’s actual boundary and the correct office for its address.
