Tennessee SB1008 allows municipalities to create and enforce a registry for all residential rental properties within their jurisdiction.

Tennessee SB1008 amends the Tennessee Code to permit municipalities to establish a registry for residential rental properties. Owners must annually register their properties, which must include specific details such as the physical address, owner's contact information, and the number of rental units. Exemptions apply to owner-occupied units renting fewer than two units and properties owned by governmental entities. Municipalities can charge a fee for registry maintenance and may inspect properties to ensure compliance with health, safety, and housing standards.
