The Franchise & Excise Trap
Tennessee skips personal income tax but charges most LLCs and corporations a franchise tax on net worth and a 6.5% excise tax on business income. That flips the usual entity math on its head: the structure that saves money in Georgia might cost money in Tennessee, and certain entities qualify for F&E exemptions that most generalist accountants never check. If nobody has analyzed your Tennessee entity structure against the F&E rules, there's a good chance you're paying a tax you could legally reduce.
Layer the federal strategy on top — S-Corp compensation planning, equipment depreciation for Nashville and East Tennessee's busy construction market, investor planning for one of the strongest STR regions in the Southeast — and Tennessee owners have more planning levers than almost anyone.
