Why is Pegram’s sales tax higher than Cheatham County’s?

Pegram’s local rate is 2.75%, while Cheatham County’s is 2.25%, so the town’s combined rate is 9.75% against the county’s 9.25%. The figures come from the Department of Revenue’s rate file for the fourth quarter of 2026, and 2.75% is the highest local rate Tennessee permits.

Pegram isn’t alone in that. Its neighbor Kingston Springs charges the same 9.75%, and so does Ashland City, the county seat. Of the three, Pegram is the smallest, with 2,071 residents at the April 2020 census base and an estimated 2,038 in July 2024. Every place Haven works, with its own rates, is on the service areas page.

How is Pegram’s 2.0729 property tax rate made up?

Cheatham County levies 1.7530 per $100 of assessed value and Pegram adds 0.3199, for a tax year 2025 total of 2.0729, according to the Comptroller’s Tax Aggregate Report. Pegram’s city share is lower than Kingston Springs’ 0.57 and Ashland City’s 0.4648, which gives it the lowest combined rate of the three Cheatham towns.

Both county offices are in Ashland City. Trustee Cindy Binkley Perry collects the tax, with a mailing address of PO Box 56, and Assessor of Property Cindy Dozier Burney sets values from 354 Frey Street, Suite B. Questions about a value belong with the Assessor. Questions about how the year’s taxes fit together are what Haven’s tax advisory work answers.

When is a Pegram household’s federal return due?

For tax year 2025, Form 1040 was due April 15, 2026, per the IRS’s instructions. The IRS hasn’t yet published the filing dates for tax year 2026, and Haven confirms them for its clients once the new instructions are out.

In the meantime, documents for the 2026 return can go into Haven’s secure client portal as they arrive: W-2s, 1099s and the records of any estimated payments made during the year. Meetings happen at the Franklin office on Seaboard Lane; Pegram is 17.4 miles from Franklin’s center in a straight line, and the portal handles the paperwork between visits. The 2026 standard deduction for a head of household is $24,150, one of the numbers Haven’s personal tax preparation checks each return against.
