Buying a home in Tennessee

Tennessee eliminated its Hall income tax on investment income in 2021 and has no wage tax. Nashville has seen dramatic price appreciation, though Knoxville and Memphis remain affordable.

With a median home price around $360,000 and an effective property tax rate of 0.64%, a typical Tennessee homeowner pays about $2,304 per year in property taxes — roughly $192 per month on top of the principal-and-interest payment. Use the mortgage calculator above to adjust home price, down payment, interest rate, and loan term to model your specific situation in Tennessee.

Understanding your Tennessee mortgage payment

A typical Tennessee mortgage payment includes four components, often abbreviated PITI:

  • Principal — the portion that reduces your loan balance each month
  • Interest — the cost of borrowing, based on your rate and remaining balance
  • Taxes — Tennessee's effective property tax rate of 0.64% is collected monthly into an escrow account
  • Insurance — homeowner's insurance (and PMI if your down payment is under 20%)

Lenders use the front-end debt-to-income ratio (DTI) — your total housing payment divided by gross monthly income — to qualify you for a loan. Most conventional lenders target a front-end DTI under 28%. The calculator above shows your full monthly PITI estimate so you can check that ratio before applying.
