FAQ's
What does a REALTOR® do?
A REALTOR® is a licensed real estate professional who helps clients buy, sell, and invest in property and is a member of the National Association of REALTORS®. REALTORS® follow a strict Code of Ethics in addition to Tennessee real estate law, providing clients with professional guidance, transparency, and protection throughout the transaction.
What’s the difference between a REALTOR® and a real estate agent?
All REALTORS® are licensed real estate agents, but not all agents are REALTORS®. REALTORS® are members of the National Association of REALTORS® and are held to higher ethical and professional standards, providing greater accountability and consumer protection.
How do I know what my home is worth?
A REALTOR® provides a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) that reviews recent sales, current listings, and local market trends to determine a competitive and realistic price for your property.
What types of auctions can you conduct in Tennessee?
Licensed Tennessee auctioneers may conduct a variety of auctions, including:
Real estate auctions
Personal property auctions
Estate auctions
Benefit and fundraising auctions
On-site (live) auctions
Online auctions
Hybrid auctions with live and online bidding
Auctions involving real property in Tennessee may also require the auctioneer to hold an active real estate license.
Do I need to be licensed to auction property in Tennessee?
**Yes. Tennessee law requires auctioneers to be licensed through the Tennessee Auctioneer Commission. Anyone conducting an auction or calling bids for compensation must hold an active auctioneer license.
If real estate is being sold, the auctioneer must also be a licensed real estate agent and operate under a licensed real estate brokerage in the State of Tennessee.**
Why choose an auction instead of a traditional listing?
Real estate auctions offer several advantages, including:
Faster sale timelines
Competitive, market-driven pricing
Greater transparency
Reduced contingencies
Serious, qualified buyers
Auctions can be an excellent option when timing, certainty, or broad market exposure is important.
