How property auctions work in Tennessee

A plain-English summary of state rules, with links to the statutes and official pages. It is general information, not legal advice; rules change and each sale has its own terms.

Foreclosure sales: non-judicial trustee sales

Most Tennessee foreclosures are trustee sales under a deed of trust. The sale must be advertised at least twice in a county newspaper, with the first notice at least 20 days before the sale, and posted online for 20 straight days. The debtor also gets a mailed copy.[1]

Real estate sold under a deed of trust can be redeemed for 2 years unless the deed of trust expressly waives that right. A waiver of the "equity of redemption" is enough, so read the recorded deed of trust.[2]

Tax sales and redemption

Delinquent tax sales are confirmed by a court. The redemption period runs from the order confirming the sale: normally 1 year, 180 days if taxes were 5 to 8 years delinquent, 90 days if 8 or more years, and 30 days for property shown to be vacant or abandoned.[3][4]

Online marketplace auctions

Many of the auctions on this page run on online platforms such as RealINSIGHT Marketplace or Tranzon. These are usually sales directed by a lender, receiver or owner (often bank-owned "REO" property), and they follow the platform's own terms, not a state foreclosure statute. Read the terms on each listing: some charge the buyer a premium on top of the winning bid, and a seller may keep the right to accept or reject the high bid.

Before you bid

  1. Open the source listing and the official notice. Dates, terms and starting bids change, and sales get postponed or cancelled.
  2. Order a title search. Find out which liens the sale wipes out and which survive, such as property taxes.
  3. Read the bidding terms: deposit, how and when the balance is due, any buyer's premium, and whether the seller can reject the high bid.
  4. Plan for limited access. Many auction properties can't be inspected inside, and occupied buildings may need an eviction process after the sale.
  5. Run your own numbers before the sale. The free Multifamily and Large Apartment Deal Checks are a quick place to start.
