One significant notice pertains to a foreclosure sale for a property located at 8608 Ellis Lane, Knoxville, Tennessee. The sale will take place on August 15, 2024, at 11:00 a.m. at the City/County Building in Knoxville. This action has come about due to a default in payment secured by a Deed of Trust. The property will be sold to the highest bidder for cash, and it is subject to all easements, restrictions, and unpaid taxes.
