No re-typing the dates off the RF401. No deadline counted from the wrong day. No amendment that quietly moved a date.
In Tennessee, everything counts from the Binding Agreement Date.
The inspection period, the resolution period, earnest money, loan steps and closing all count from one date: when the last offeror got notice of acceptance.
Get that date wrong and every deadline after it is wrong.
Your forms tool is good at writing the RF401. But the people who have to hit those dates, your clients, the title company, the lender and the other agent, will never open it.
DocJacket starts at the Binding Agreement Date.
Upload the signed RF401, or forward the email it came in on. DocJacket reads the Binding Agreement Date off the contract, anchors everything to it, and lays out the Tennessee timeline. Then it runs the coordination.
Inspection period, then resolution period.
The RF401 leaves the number of days to you, so DocJacket uses the days written in your contract. The inspection deadline is tracked from the Binding Agreement Date.
When an amendment changes a date, upload it. DocJacket proposes the date changes, each with a reference to the language it came from, and you approve them.
Nothing changes until you say so.
The Tennessee document checklist starts with the RF401, the Residential Property Condition Disclosure (RF201) or the disclaimer (RF204), the agency forms and lead-based paint for pre-1978 homes. You can edit it to fit your workflow.
Built for how the RF401 counts.
Binding Agreement Date, the anchor.
Every deadline calculates from it, using the days written in your contract. When a date is calculated rather than stated, DocJacket shows where it came from.
Weekends roll forward, except the dates that don’t.
A deadline on a Saturday, Sunday or federal holiday moves to the next day, as the RF401 says. Closing, possession, repair completion and offer expiration stay where you wrote them.
Buyer’s and seller’s closing agency.
When the RF401 names a closing agency for each side, DocJacket keeps both on the deal.
Your forms tool writes the RF401. DocJacket runs the deal.
Tennessee deals are written and signed in a forms tool. DocJacket doesn’t replace it. It picks up the signed contract and handles everything the people outside your forms tool need.
- BCC DocJacket on your deal emails and it reads what comes back — flagging replies for your review, filing attachments to the right transaction, and proposing date changes when an email says the closing moved. You keep sending from wherever compliance requires.
- Need a communication record from DocJacket? Every email and text it touches exports as a complete log, any time.
- The people outside your forms tool stay in the loop — clients and co-op agents get free portals; reminders go out by text from your own business number.
Keep your forms tool. We don’t compete with your forms tool. We run the transaction it can’t. See everything DocJacket connects to and works alongside.

The rest of the transaction, on the same record.
The contract is one moment in a 30- to 60-day deal. DocJacket runs the rest of it — portals, communication, document chasing, broker review — with the AI-assisted workflows that turn a Tennessee TC’s longest day into a normal one.
Free Client Portal
Buyers and sellers see the timeline and track status — no account, no seat fee.

Missing-doc tracking with one-click requests — and chase-until-they-reply automation that pings by text until the title company actually answers.

Status emails and texts draft themselves off the timeline. Nothing sends until you approve it.
Morning Brief
One email every morning: what moved overnight, what’s due this week, which files are stuck — across every transaction you carry.

Where do I get the actual Tennessee forms?
The RF forms, including the RF401, are published by Tennessee REALTORS®, available to members. Agents and brokers are licensed by the Tennessee Real Estate Commission. DocJacket doesn’t publish or sell the forms. You write the RF401 where you always do, and DocJacket runs everything after the Binding Agreement Date.
