A Tennessee sale-cost fact
Realty transfer tax is charged when the deed is recorded
Tennessee charges a state realty transfer tax of 37 cents for each $100 of the price paid or the property’s value, whichever is greater. State law places the tax on the buyer. 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.
Check the Department of Revenue information and ask the title company to show the transfer-tax amount for the actual transaction.
