Right to cure / redeem in Tennessee

If a breach can be fixed by paying rent, repairs, damages or another amount owed, the landlord's notice must give 14 days to remedy before the lease ends. A repeat of the same breach within 6 months allows termination on at least 7 days' notice (Tenn. Code Ann. § 66-28-505(a)(2)). Applies only in counties over 75,000 population (§ 66-28-102(a)).
