Bill > HB1760

This bill, amending Tennessee Code Annotated (TCA) Title 4 and Title 68, clarifies the use of third-party inspectors for building inspections. Specifically, it addresses situations where a person initially hires a third-party inspector for a locally required building inspection. The bill states that if a third-party inspector is used for an initial inspection, any subsequent inspections related to that *same* locally required building inspection must also be conducted by a third-party inspector. However, this does not obligate the person to use a third-party inspector for entirely different, unrelated building inspections. The bill takes effect on July 1, 2026.
