Buyer’s guide
Buying land in Tennessee
Tennessee pairs rolling hills, mountain views and farmland with no state income tax on wages. Growth around Nashville, Knoxville and Chattanooga keeps spreading into the counties around them.
What to know before you buy
- Zoning. Rules vary by county, and many rural areas have little zoning outside city limits. Confirm your plans with the county before you buy.
- Septic. Septic permits start with a soil evaluation, handled by the state or, in some counties, by the county itself.
- Taxes. The greenbelt program can lower property taxes on qualifying agricultural, forest or open-space land.
- Terrain. Slope matters on hillside land. Check where a driveway and homesite would realistically sit.
