Tennessee is rapidly growing and the housing market is following that growth. Some local TN governments offer assistance but any shopper looking in TN should review the rural housing program offered through the USDA. It may allow for a new homebuyer to get into a house with no down payment. If the home is not located in a qualified area for the program, then a great step for a new shopper is to search out the local TN government to see if there are assistance programs available.  The links below are some of the collected programs we have located. There may be others. Be sure to verify the qualifications and requirements that the locality has set out for any home buying program.
