Notice of Rulemaking Hearing for New Rules of the
Tennessee Real Estate Commission
Pursuant to Tenn. Code Ann. § 4-3-1306(d), you are receiving this notice because you have elected to receive notification by e-mail of certain changes or potential changes to the law applicable to your profession.
The Tennessee Real Estate Commission (“Commission”) approved the proposed rules at the rulemaking hearing conducted on December 11, 2024. The rules were filed with the Secretary of State on June 25, 2025, and will become effective September 23, 2025. The rules have been filed as rulemaking hearing rules and will be promulgated ninety (90) days from the filing date.
The proposed rules amend certain general licensing, rules of conduct, and vacation lodging service requirements resulting from the Department’s review as required by the General Assembly’s enactment of Tenn. Code Ann. § 4-5-213. Most of the rule amendments are clerical and do not impose any additional licensure standards. Specifically, the rule amendments simplify civil penalty schedules, lower the barrier of entry for certain individuals with criminal convictions, clarify the errors and omissions insurance and gifts and prizes reporting requirements, and repeal an outdated rule related to telephone answering services.
