Real Property - As introduced, enacts the "Tennessee Uniform Real Property Transfer on Death Act." - Amends TCA Title 8; Title 30; Title 31; Title 32; Title 35; Title 55; Title 66 and Section 67-4-409.

HB 1793 creates Tennessee's "Uniform Real Property Transfer on Death Act," allowing property owners to automatically transfer real estate to designated beneficiaries upon their death. It directly affects Tennessee homeowners who wish to bypass probate for their real property by creating a simple, revocable "transfer on death deed" that must be recorded with the county register of deeds before the owner's death. Key provisions include: the deed must state the transfer occurs upon death, requires no consideration or beneficiary acceptance during the owner's life, and does not affect the owner's rights to sell or mortgage the property while living. The law ensures the property transfers directly to the named beneficiary without court involvement, while preserving the owner's control during their lifetime and not impacting eligibility for public assistance.
