Transfer tax
Realty transfer tax. Thirty-seven cents (37¢) per one hundred dollars ($100). The tax is collected when the document is recorded. (statewide, T.C.A. § 67-4-409(a)(1))
StatewideThe transfer tax is based on the consideration for the transfer or the value of the property, whichever is greater, and the register collects it. The actual consideration or value must be stated under oath on the face of the instrument. A separate tax of eleven and one-half cents (11.5¢) on each one hundred dollars ($100) of indebtedness is levied on the recording of mortgages, deeds of trust and other instruments evidencing an indebtedness; it does not apply to the first $2,000 of indebtedness (T.C.A. § 67-4-409(b)). Such instruments must contain the statement "Maximum principal indebtedness for Tennessee recording tax purposes is $______."
