2.2.1 Attachment 2 - DR-4832-TN Direct Lease Rental Resource FMR.xlsx

This file is a Fair Market Rent (FMR) pricing spreadsheet for FY2025 covering rental properties across Tennessee counties affected by Tropical Storm Helene (DR-4832-TN). The spreadsheet details rental rates for 1-4 bedroom units at various percentage thresholds (125%, 150%, 175%, and 200% of FMR) across all Tennessee counties, along with corresponding utility allowances set at 11% of the base rent.

The document supports FEMA's Direct Lease program solicitation (70FBR425Q00000044) which seeks Property Management Companies and Housing Solution vendors to provide furnished, turnkey temporary housing for disaster-affected applicants. Key metropolitan areas show higher rental rates, with Nashville-Davidson-Murfreesboro-Franklin having the highest FMRs ($1,650-$2,840 for 1-4 bedrooms), while rural counties generally show lower rates (many starting at $685 for 1-bedroom units). The data includes detailed breakdowns for eight specifically impacted counties: Carter, Cocke, Greene, Hamblen, Hawkins, Johnson, Unicoi, and Washington Counties.
