Sell Land Without an Agent or Commission in Strawberry Plains, TN
Land closes faster than a house because there is no appraisal and no lender. Strawberry Plains is about twenty-five minutes east of us on Asheville Highway, so we can get eyes on it quickly. Strawberry Plains follows the Holston River and Asheville Highway east out of Knoxville, straddling the Knox, Jefferson, and Sevier county lines. The land end of that market is Strawberry Plains, the Asheville Highway corridor and Carter and the acreage past the Holston River. Utility availability varies parcel by parcel across Jefferson County.

Jefferson County offices involved
- Deeds and plats
- Deeds, plats, and easements are recorded with the Jefferson County Register of Deeds.
- Planning and zoning
- Jefferson County planning and zoning governs lot size, setbacks, and subdivision outside the city limits.
- Septic and soils
- Soil evaluations and septic permits for Jefferson County parcels run through the local environmental health office under state rules.
- Delinquent taxes
- The Jefferson County Trustee collects taxes and unpaid parcels are sold through the Clerk & Master, with redemption running one year from the sale.
- Probate
- Probate goes through the Jefferson County Chancery Court in Dandridge. Strawberry Plains straddles Knox, Jefferson, and Sevier counties, so the mailing address rarely tells you which courthouse a file belongs in. 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.
