Releasing a Mechanic's Lien in Tennessee

Lien claimants must grant releases when the lien is no longer effective because it has been paid off or for any other reason.

If a lienor whose lien has been forfeited, expired, satisfied or adjudged against the lienor in an action on the lien, fails to cause the lien provided by this chapter to be released within thirty (30) days after service of written notice demanding release, the lienor shall be liable to the owner for all damages arising therefrom, and costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by the owner. Tenn. Prop. Code 66-11-135(a).

A valid release form under this section identifies the parties, the location of the work or improvement, a reference to the recorded notice of lien, relevant dates and payments, and any other information necessary for the specific situation.

The lienor must file the release in the office where the notice of lien was recorded. Tenn. Prop. Code 66-11-135(b). The fee for recording shall be the fee required for the recording of a release or satisfaction of a mortgage as provided by law. Id. The lien shall be deemed released on the day on which the release of the lien is recorded in the proper office. Tenn. Prop. Code 66-11-135(c).

Quick and easy to use. I was able to download the Transfer on Death Deed form to my computer so that I can read through and fill them out at a later time. That made it convenient and "no pressure". The complimentary guide and completed example that came with the form was also very helpful.

Love the ability to e-record a single document as a private citizen. Other companies only want to do business with large volume filers like title companies and attorneys. e-recording was super easy and so efficient. Got confirmation of recording from county clerk less than one hour after submission.
