Meet Corey, our passionate and knowledgeable in-house mortgage officer. He’s here for all of your mortgage questions!
Tennessee voters went to the polls on November 3, 2026, deciding races for governor, U.S. Senate, Congress, the Tennessee General Assembly, and statewide constitutional amendments.
As results continue to be finalized, several major races have already been called, including Tennessee's next governor and U.S. senator.
Here is a look at the 2026 Tennessee midterm election results, with a closer look at what happened across East Tennessee and Middle Tennessee.
Results and percentages in this article reflect reporting available on November 4, 2026. Some totals remain unofficial and may change as remaining ballots are counted and results are certified.

🏡 The Market Has Entered Its "Let's Be Reasonable" Era
More homes, more choices, and a little more negotiating power? Tennessee, we're listening! 👀
The housing market is changing, and for once, buyers might actually have time to think before making an offer!
🏠 More Homes, Less Competition: Tennessee had approximately 37,500 homes for sale in October, up 10.2% from last year. Buyers have more options, and sellers have a little more competition.
💰 Home Prices Are Taking a Chill Pill: The statewide median asking price was around $425,000 in October, down 1% from a year ago. No dramatic plot twist here, just a market finding its balance.
⏰ Homes Aren't Flying Off the Shelves: The typical Tennessee listing spent about 69 days on the market in October. That's a reminder to sellers that the right price and a great first impression matter!
📍 East Tennessee Has Its Own Story: While national headlines talk about a slower market, East Tennessee saw stronger home sales in September compared with last year. Proof that real estate is local, and one headline doesn't tell the whole story!
💡 Our Two Cents: Whether you're buying, selling, or just keeping an eye on your home's value, the market isn't on pause. It's simply playing by a different set of rules.
And knowing those rules? That's where we come in. 😉
