Bill Summary

AI Summary

This bill amends Tennessee's business tax code to create a new exemption for professional real estate and property appraisers. Specifically, the legislation adds a new subsection to the existing tax code that will exclude services provided by real estate appraisers from being subject to business tax. The bill modifies Section 67-4-708(3)(C) of the Tennessee Code by inserting a new subdivision (xvii) that explicitly exempts appraisal services from taxation. Additionally, the bill updates related language to reference the new subsection, ensuring that the legal text remains consistent. The exemption will take effect immediately upon the bill becoming law, with the stated rationale that it serves the public welfare. By providing this tax exemption, the legislation aims to reduce the financial burden on professional real estate appraisers and potentially make such services more affordable or accessible.
