Most states require contractors and other workers to provide a written notice to a property owner that lets he or she know that a project is about to commence. Sending the notice is necessary to protect any later mechanic's lien rights. In Tennessee, the form of notice is called a "Notice to Owner."

Any contractor who is about to enter into a contract, either written or oral, for improving real property with the owner or owners thereof shall, prior to commencing the improvement of the real property or making of the contract, deliver, by registered mail or otherwise, to the owner or owners of the real property to be improved a written notice. Tenn. Prop. Code 66-11-203.

The purpose of the Notice is to identify who the contractor is and inform the owner that the contractor is about to commence work and will have a right to claim a lien under State law. Id.

The notice identifies the parties, the delivery date, and the intended location and start date for the work or improvement. It must be sent before the work begins or else the person sending the notice may only be able to claim a lien for work arising after the notice is sent (if sent late). This document does not need to be recorded, but the potential claimant should either deliver it by hand or via USPS Registered mail or another delivery service that offers confirmation.

This article is provided for informational purposes only and should not be considered legal advice or relied upon as any substitute for speaking with an attorney. Please consult a Tennessee attorney familiar with construction law for any issues regarding mechanic's liens or sending notice to an owner.

Forms easy to download but experienced problems trying to type in my information into the forms. Then when I went to print a form, Adobe wanted to charge me for printing. I ended up printing the blank forms and then filling them out manually.

Great product. It would be better if the document files were not embedded within other files. It made downloading a little confusing. The titles of the forms did not match exactly word for word, which required a lot of back and forth to make sure I had downloaded the proper document. What would be great is if once you download a document, the hyperlink changed color, or somehow denoted the document had been downloaded. Just a suggestion. You have my email address if you have questions. STILL! Five stars for you guys. I would not let that hiccup dissuade me from buying any form package from you guys. Thanks!
