HB 2495 Tennessee House · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Real Property - As enacted, provides that a provision of a document requiring a transferor or transferee to pay a fee, charge, assessment, dues, contribution, deposit, or other amount to purchase, issue, reissue, maintain, or transfer a club membership that is related to the real property or the community in which the property is sited is not a transfer fee covenant. - Amends TCA Title 66.

HB 2495 increases the required notice period for real estate wholesalers from three to five business days. Specifically, it amends Tennessee law to require buyers engaging in property wholesaling to provide sellers with at least five business days' notice before transferring their interest in a property. This change directly affects real estate buyers who assign their purchase rights to another buyer before closing. The bill modifies Tennessee Code Annotated, Title 66, Section 66-4-403(a)(1)(B), to extend the notice timeframe without altering other transaction requirements.
