What the Tennessee market looks like right now

Across the 23 Tennessee cities we cover, the median of the typical home values was $374,452 in July 2026. The spread inside the state is wide: the typical home in Memphis was $144,877 and in Franklin it was $917,023, which is why the page for your own city is the one worth reading.

Of the 23 Tennessee cities with data, 2 saw homes go under contract in 15 days or fewer and 7 took 31 days or more, in July 2026. Those are days to an accepted offer, before a buyer's mortgage adds another 30 to 45 days on top.

Values are mostly rising: 13 of the 23 Tennessee cities with a year-over-year figure went up, 9 went down. A house in good condition should usually be listed here; cash makes sense for one that cannot pass an appraisal.

Figures come from Zillow's public research data and describe whole cities, not individual houses.

Where to start: closing in Tennessee

Selling in Tennessee means closing with a title company, and a tax or fee on the transfer of the deed is part of the settlement. The practical points, in plain words:

  • Title companies and attorneys both conduct closings.
  • Tennessee levies a transfer tax at recording, and by custom the buyer pays it.
  • The residential property condition disclosure is required unless the buyer accepts a disclaimer.
  • A spouse who is not on the deed is normally asked to sign it.

Selling a house in Tennessee: common questions

How fast can I sell my house in Tennessee?

Once you accept a cash offer, closing in Tennessee normally takes 7 to 21 days, limited mostly by the title search. For comparison, the median Tennessee city on our list took 28 days just for a home to go under contract in July 2026, before any mortgage timeline. If you need longer to organise a move, pick a date two or three months out instead.

Do I need an attorney to sell a house in Tennessee?

In Tennessee closings are normally conducted by a title company rather than an attorney, so one is not required. You are free to have your own attorney review the contract before you sign, and we would encourage it. On a cash sale we pay the ordinary closing costs.

Is there a transfer tax when I sell a house in Tennessee?

Yes. Tennessee has a tax or fee on the transfer of a deed, settled on the closing statement. Who pays it is set by custom and by the contract; the closing agent will show the exact figure for your county before you sign. This is general information, not tax advice.
