Record Low Tax Rates

The state of Tennessee and the city of Chattanooga have some of the lowest tax rates in the nation, which is yet another reason why buyers are flocking to the area. We also don't have any state-level income taxes!

Why Buy a Home in 2022?

Steady Mortgage Rates

Last year, we saw mortgage rates dip below 4%—and they're expected to stay at record lows for the duration of the year. That means now is the time to lock in an amazing rate and make a move.

More New Homes

Home builder confidence has reached its highest level in over 20 years, which means we can continue to see plenty of new communities popping up all around Chattanooga.

Renting Isn't Cheap

While renting does have its perks, it's also becoming more expensive. On average, renters in Chattanooga are spending over $1,000 a month on housing—but when you buy, you'll gain more stable, long-term equity.

Chattanooga Is Heating Up

Chattanooga is becoming a popular place to settle down. When you buy now, you'll enjoy home prices that are much lower than the national average—and you'll probably gain money once you decide to sell.
