Tennessee Real Estate Market Analysis
The Tennessee housing market offers investors and homebuyers a diverse range of opportunities across metro areas, counties, and communities at every price point. The PropertyIQ Score rates every market in Tennessee by combining Zillow price momentum over 3 and 12 months with Realtor.com market-flow signals — how fast homes sell and how often sellers cut prices — to show how each market is positioned to outperform or lag the state over the next three years.
Tennessee's housing market has experienced transformational demand from corporate relocations (Oracle, AllianceBernstein, Amazon), domestic migration seeking no state income tax, and a booming tourism economy anchored by Nashville's music and entertainment industry. Memphis offers some of the South's highest cash flow yields for investors, while Chattanooga has emerged as a remote-work destination given its gigabit fiber infrastructure and outdoor lifestyle positioning.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many housing markets does PropertyIQ track in Tennessee?
PropertyIQ currently tracks 27 metro areas and 95 counties in Tennessee, each with its own PropertyIQ Score, home value trend, and days on market reading, refreshed monthly.
What does a PropertyIQ Score of 50 mean for a Tennessee market?
A score of 50 marks Tennessee's own state average demand momentum. PropertyIQ computes scores nationally across every US market, then calibrates the scale so a Tennessee market is read against Tennessee's own typical momentum rather than the national average. A market scoring above 50 is positioned to outperform the Tennessee average over the next three years, while one below 50 is positioned to lag it.
Where can I find ZIP code level housing data for Tennessee?
Every metro area and county listed on this page links through to its own ZIP codes, and each ZIP has its own market page with home value, rent, and days on market data. Start from a Tennessee metro or county below, then drill into ZIP codes for the most localized data available.
What data sources does PropertyIQ use for Tennessee market data, and how often is it updated?
PropertyIQ ingests fresh data every month from Zillow home values, Realtor.com days on market and price cut activity, Redfin, the US Census Bureau, FRED, the Bureau of Labor Statistics, and the Bureau of Economic Analysis. Every metro, county, and ZIP page for Tennessee shows a last updated date, and PropertyIQ Scores are recomputed monthly once that new source data lands.
