How it works in Knox County
The local process, step by step
- Step 1
Identify the parcel
We pull the assessor record, the deed, and the plat to confirm exactly what you own.
- Step 2
Confirm the basics
Access, zoning, utilities, and taxes -- those four answers set the value on a small lot.
- Step 3
Close
Attorney closing, recorded deed, funds wired. Typically two weeks or less.
Knox County offices involved
- Deeds and plats
- Deeds, plats, easements, and mineral reservations for Knox County are recorded with the Knox County Register of Deeds at the City County Building downtown, and the chain is searchable back well over a century.
- Planning and zoning
- Zoning and subdivision review inside the city and the county run through the Knoxville-Knox County Planning commission, with separate city and county zoning ordinances governing minimum lot size, setbacks, and hillside disturbance.
- Septic and soils
- Septic and soil evaluations for parcels outside sewer service are handled through the Knox County Health Department's environmental health program under state rules.
- Delinquent taxes
- Delinquent property taxes are collected by the Knox County Trustee. Parcels that stay unpaid are turned over to the Clerk & Master and sold at tax sale through Chancery Court, and a tax-sale purchase carries a one-year redemption period.
- Probate
- Probate is handled by the Knox County Chancery Court, Probate Division, at the City-County Building at 400 Main Street downtown. An executor with letters testamentary can sign a sale contract once the court has appointed them. Tennessee has no statutory right of redemption after a foreclosure sale in most deeds, but tax-sale purchases carry a one-year redemption period. Probate in Tennessee typically runs 6-12 months; a house can be sold during probate with court approval or by the executor once appointed.
