Why Tennessee Vues?
Rocky Top You’ll Always Be, ‘Home Sweet Home’ to Me! Tennessee isn’t just full of natural beauty and scenic wonder, it’s a southern state offering many lifestyle and financial advantages. And luxury lake living at Tennessee Vues is just an added bonus!
AFFORDABLE COST OF LIVING Tennessee is known for its low cost of living compared to other states, particularly in housing. Buying or renting…housing prices are generally lower than the national average.
NO STATE INCOME TAX! We’re one of the few U.S. states without a state income tax. This can mean significant savings, especially for high earners.
LOW PROPERTY TAXES (Source: Tennessee Comptroller of The Treasury) Our property tax rates are attractively low. *For example: assume your Tennesee Vues home has an APPRAISED VALUE of $2,000,000. The ASSESSED VALUE is $500,000 (25% of $2,000,000.) The current 2024 Claiborne County TAX RATE is set at $2.30 per $100 of assessed value. To calculate your taxes, multiply the ASSESSED VALUE ($500,000) by the TAX RATE (2.30 per $100 dollars assessed.)
Your Annual Tax Bill = $11,500
