Recording your Tennessee POA

Tennessee requires (or permits) recording of the POA at the Register of Deeds in the county where the property lies when it covers real property. See Tenn. Code §66-24-101.

Recording isn't required for a POA used only for financial accounts, but it's needed before your agent can sell, lease, or mortgage real estate on your behalf.
