Sell Your Nashville House As-Is: Flood Damage, Tornado Damage, Older Homes

On May 1 and 2, 2010, 13.57 inches of rain fell at Nashville International Airport, more than double the old two-day record, and the 7.25 inches on May 2 set a new one-day record. The Cumberland River at Nashville crested at 52.55 feet on May 3 2. If that flood, or water since, got into your house, you don't have to fix the damage before you sell. Tell us about it on the call.

Tornadoes have crossed the city too. Early on March 3, 2020, an EF-3 tracked from Bells Bend through North Nashville, Germantown, East Nashville and Donelson toward Hermitage, on a path of more than 60 miles that killed five people and injured 220 3. On December 9, 2023, an EF-2 touched down in north Nashville and stayed on the ground through Madison toward Hendersonville and Gallatin 4. A patched roof, a porch that was never rebuilt or siding that still needs work is all part of a house you can sell as it stands.

Cash Offer or Listing With an Agent in Nashville?

An agent may well get more for your Nashville house than our cash offer, especially if it's updated and you're not in a hurry. The listing route has its own bills, though: the commission, the repairs a buyer's inspection turns up, and the mortgage, insurance, taxes and utilities until closing day. The Davidson County market figures show how many days listings have been taking.

The number to compare is what you'd keep. The cost example for Nashville estimates a listing's net; hold our written offer up against it.

On a $525,000 sale

Example, not a quote.

Comparing a cash offer

In this example, listing would leave you about $474,175 before your mortgage payoff. Compare that with your cash offer, less any closing costs you'd still pay.

Selling a House in a Nashville Historic Overlay

Nashville and Davidson County adopted historic zoning in 1974, and the first historic zoning district, Edgefield, was designated in 1978. Neighborhood overlays come in two strengths. A historic preservation overlay regulates most exterior alterations, while a neighborhood conservation overlay, the least restrictive type, only guides new construction, additions, demolition and moving a building 1.

Listing on the National Register of Historic Places is honorary and doesn't change property rights 1. None of this is about selling. If you applied for a preservation permit, were turned down for one, or had work done without one, tell us on the call.

Selling a Tennessee House in a Hard Spot

If one of these sounds like your situation, here's what Tennessee law generally says about it, in plain terms. For advice on your own situation, talk to a Tennessee attorney.

Facing foreclosureThe notice can run as little as 20 days before the sale. Here are the rules.

For a Nashville house, the sale must be advertised at least twice in a Davidson County newspaper, the first time at least 20 days ahead, and posted online for 20 days in a row; a copy is mailed to you by registered or certified mail by the day of the first ad 5. If the sale brings less than you owe, the lender can generally sue you for the shortfall within two years, and the court presumes the sale price was fair market value unless you show it was materially less 6. If a sale is set, talk to a Tennessee real estate attorney before you sign anything.

Inherited a houseWho inherits the house, which court handles the estate, and what a small estate covers.

Davidson County estates go to the Seventh Circuit Court's Probate Division, commonly called the Davidson County Probate Court, which has exclusive jurisdiction there over estates and the probate of wills. The Probate Court Clerk's Office is at 1 Public Square, Suite 302, (615) 862-5980 7. Under Tennessee law a house usually passes at death to the heirs, or to whoever the will names 8, so the key question is who signs the deed. Tell us where the estate stands, and we'll plan the closing around it.

Behind on paymentsA servicer generally can't start foreclosure until you're more than 120 days behind.

Federal rules generally bar a mortgage servicer from starting foreclosure until you're more than 120 days behind 9. Because a Tennessee sale notice can first appear just 20 days ahead, that window is the time to call your servicer about options, or to sell before a notice ever goes out.

Going through a divorceHow Tennessee divides a house in a divorce, and why selling can make it simpler.

In a Tennessee divorce, the court divides the marital property equitably, without regard to who was at fault, in the proportions it finds just 10. A house is often the biggest piece. Selling it turns it into money that's simpler to divide. Your divorce attorneys can tell you what your order requires before either of you signs a contract.

Selling a rental with tenantsYour tenants don't have to move out first. Bring the lease and the deposit records to the call.

The tenant doesn't have to move out before we make an offer. Tennessee's landlord-tenant act applies in counties with more than 75,000 people at the 2010 census 11. Under it, either side can end a month-to-month tenancy with written notice at least 30 days before the rent date 12, and security deposits are kept in an account used only for that purpose 13. Tell us about the lease, the rent and the deposit on the call.

Moving away or downsizingLine the sale up with your move, and ask about state property tax relief at your next home.

The sale can line up with your move. If you're 65 or older and buying another Tennessee home, the state's tax relief program may pay back part or all of the property tax on your primary residence, within income limits. It isn't an exemption: you still pay the bill, and you apply through the county trustee 14.

Nashville Cash Home Buyers: Common Questions

Prefer to talk it through?

Call (984) 489-8269
How fast can you buy my house in Nashville?

You can close on a Nashville house in as little as 14 days from the day you accept our written offer. The title company's search and your lender's payoff statement usually decide the date; the lender owes you that statement within seven business days of a written request 16. An estate or a tenant's lease can add a step, and a later date is fine too.

How do you decide your cash offer on a Nashville house?

By phone, based on what you tell us about the house. We'll ask its age, the state of the roof, foundation, wiring and plumbing, whether the 2010 flood or a later storm put water inside, which tornado or wind repairs were finished, and who lives there. If a line in the written offer isn't clear, we'll explain it.

How much will a cash buyer pay for my Nashville house?

It depends on the house: its condition, the work it needs and what you tell us on the call. The figure comes in writing, and the cost example for Nashville lets you weigh it against a listing's take-home.

Will a cash offer be lower than listing my Nashville house?

Usually it will be. A Nashville house in good condition, with months to find a buyer, may sell for more on the market. Judge both by the money left after commission, repairs and carrying costs.

Do I have to disclose problems if I sell my Nashville house as-is?

Usually, yes. Most Tennessee sellers fill out a disclosure statement listing the material defects they know about; the other route, a disclaimer that the house is sold as is, is allowed only when the buyer waives that statement 17. Either way, a known sinkhole, or a house that was moved to a new foundation, has to be disclosed in writing 18. In Nashville, tell us about any flood or tornado damage you know of.

I owe back property taxes on my Nashville house. Can I still sell?

Usually you can, so tell us on the call. The Metropolitan Trustee mails tax statements in October, and the year's taxes have to be paid in full by the last day of February to avoid interest. The same office runs the state tax relief program and the tax freeze program for eligible homeowners 19. The standard Tennessee contract makes back taxes the seller's to pay, so they come out of your proceeds at closing 20.

Do you buy houses near Nashville?

Yes. We also buy houses in Belle Meade, Forest Hills, Oak Hill, Berry Hill and Goodlettsville 15, and in ZIP code 37072. If you're not sure, call us.
