Davidson County's 2025 property reappraisal is complete, and if you own property here, you'll receive a notice in the mail detailing your home’s new market value. If not, find it via the Assessor of Property.

Not to be confused with property tax bills sent out in October, Tennessee law requires counties to periodically reappraise all real property to reflect market value. Let’s dig in and see what this means for you.

What did the 2025 reappraisal look like?

Overall, property values grew a median 45% countywide, with increases ranging from 38% growth in District 15 to 54% in District 34.

The Assessor of Property released a heat map showing the median appraised value increase by council district. Each district’s percentage reflects a composite of all properties — including new and existing construction across residential and commercial.

Will my property taxes decrease, increase, or stay the same?

A state law requires the total amount of property tax revenue collected by the county to stay the same after a reappraisal. That means if property values rise overall, the tax rate must be adjusted downward — a process called setting the certified tax rate. This helps ensure the county doesn't bring in extra revenue just because of higher appraisals.

That doesn't mean every property owner will pay the same amount as before. If your property’s value increased more than the average, you could owe more. If it increased less, your bill might go down.

If Metro Council proposes a tax rate that would generate more revenue than the year before, they must hold a public hearing before adopting it.

How can I start planning for property taxes?

Property tax bills are calculated by multiplying the assessed value by the tax rate. The assessed value is 25% of the appraised value for residential property and 40% for commercial property.

Something doesn’t look right. Can I appeal?

The first step in this process is to request an informal review online or by calling 615-862-6059. The deadline to request an informal review is May 9, 2025, at 4 p.m. Property owners will be notified of the review findings no later than June 6, 2025.

If you disagree with the outcome, you can schedule a formal appeal.
