TL;DR
A tax lien on a Smyrna home is recorded by the Rutherford County Register of Deeds in Murfreesboro, not in Smyrna. When a bank levy arrives, the bank holds the funds 21 days before sending them to the IRS, so the date on the notice matters first. Tyrone J.

Smyrna at a glance, for a tax problem
What should a Smyrna resident do the week a bank levy hits?
A Smyrna resident hit with a bank levy should check the dates first. A bank that receives an IRS levy holds the money for 21 days before sending it to the IRS (26 U.S.C. § 6332(c)), and those 21 days are the time there is to act. A wage levy runs differently: it keeps taking from each paycheck until it’s released.
Before any levy, the IRS sends a Final Notice of Intent to Levy, Letter 1058 or LT11, and that letter opens a 30-day window to ask for a Collection Due Process hearing. If you still have the letter and the 30 days haven’t passed, say so on the first call. How Tyrone answers each kind of levy is on the bank levy and wage garnishment page.
Where is a lien on a Smyrna home filed?
A lien on a Smyrna home is filed with the Rutherford County Register of Deeds at 319 N Maple St, Room 133, in Murfreesboro, roughly 10 miles from Smyrna. The IRS records its notice of federal tax lien there under Tenn. Code Ann. § 66-21-201, and the Tennessee Department of Revenue records its own there for unpaid state tax.
Smyrna grew from 53,106 people in the April 2020 Census base to 60,302 in the July 2024 estimate, about 13.6% in four years. All of them share that one county register. A Smyrna business collects sales tax at 9.75%, the 7% state rate plus a 2.75% local rate, and a state sales tax lien would be recorded on North Maple Street too.
Can Tyrone handle a Smyrna case without an office visit?
A Smyrna case can be handled by phone, without an office visit, once you sign Form 2848, the IRS form that authorizes an Enrolled Agent to speak for you. From there Tyrone pulls the account transcripts, checks the filing requirements and the collection statute date, and deals with whichever IRS function holds the file, the Automated Collection System or a Revenue Officer. That’s the core of his IRS representation.
The last stage is staying out of collection: returns on time, estimated payments made, and current payroll deposits for any business with employees. The firm also lists payroll among its services. When you’d rather sit down in person, the Perimeter Park office is about 12 miles away and books meetings in advance.

Tax questions from Smyrna
Does Smyrna have its own register of deeds?
No, Smyrna doesn’t record deeds or liens itself; Rutherford County’s Register of Deeds does, at 319 N Maple St, Room 133, Murfreesboro 37130. A federal tax lien on Smyrna real estate is recorded there under Tenn. Code Ann. § 66-21-201, and so is any lien notice from the Tennessee Department of Revenue.
What is the sales tax in Smyrna, Tennessee?
Smyrna’s combined sales tax rate is 9.75%, the 7% state rate plus a 2.75% local rate, according to the Tennessee Department of Revenue’s Q4 2026 rate file. A Smyrna business that collects it and falls behind owes the state, and the department can record its lien notice with the register in Murfreesboro.
My Smyrna bank account was levied. How long until the money goes?
The bank holds levied funds for 21 days before sending them to the IRS, under 26 U.S.C. § 6332(c), whether your account is at a branch in Smyrna or anywhere else. A wage levy has no such pause and continues each payday, so the notice and its date are the first things Tyrone asks for.
How far is Smyrna from the Taylor Tax office?
Smyrna is about 12 miles in a straight line from the office at 301 S Perimeter Park Dr, Suite 100, Nashville, one of the nearer places outside Davidson County. Meetings there are by appointment. The IRS’s own Nashville center at 801 Broadway also needs an appointment, made by calling 844-545-5640.
