We Buy Land in Farragut, TN
The town's housing was largely built between the 1970s and the 2000s, and the eighties homes in particular are big, solid, and thoroughly dated. We buy plenty of those — four bedrooms with original everything, where the owners have retired and have no appetite for a six-month renovation before listing.
Knox County has a large amount of Greenbelt-classified agricultural and forest land, and a change of use can trigger rollback taxes that get calculated before closing.

Knox County land specifics
- 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.
- Utilities
- Water, sewer, and electric availability varies sharply by parcel here -- KUB serves much of the urban area while outlying parcels depend on utility district lines and well or septic.
- 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.
