Chattanooga housing market heats up in Tennessee
Published On Mar 8, 2025, 8:00 AM
The housing market in Chattanooga, Tennessee, is experiencing increased activity due to its appealing climate, scenery, and strategic proximity to major cities like Nashville and Atlanta. Though there was a slight dip in sales last year, the market is stabilizing and is expected to grow, with home prices projected to increase by 2-3% in 2025. The area is attractive for its outdoor recreational opportunities and a favorable tax environment, as Tennessee does not have a state income tax. Experts believe that consumer confidence is rising, which could bolster the housing market further in the coming years.
