- County
- Davidson County
- Deeds and records
- The Davidson County Register of Deeds records deeds and other property documents. Its records are available online by paid subscription, with images back to 1784.
- Foreclosure sales
- Most Davidson County foreclosures are non-judicial trustee sales conducted by the trustee or substitute trustee named in the deed of trust, not by a county office. Tennessee law requires the sale to be advertised at least three times in a newspaper published in the county, with the first notice at least 20 days before the sale, and the notice must state the time and place of sale (Tenn. Code Ann. 35-5-101 and 35-5-104).
- Local rules for owners
- Anyone renting a property on short-term rental websites must get a Short Term Rental Property (STRP) permit from Metro Codes before listing. Stays under 24 hours cannot be paid and the maximum stay is 30 consecutive days (Metro Code 6.28.030).
- New non-owner-occupied STRP permits are issued only in certain mixed-use, office and commercial zoning districts. Owner-occupied permits require the owner to be a natural person who lives at the property; LLCs, trusts and other entities are ineligible.
