Who is responsible for exterior upkeep of a home while in chapter 7 or foreclosure in TN?

In Tennessee, during a Chapter 7 bankruptcy or foreclosure process, the homeowner is generally still responsible for the exterior upkeep of the property. This includes maintaining the lawn, landscaping, and overall exterior condition. Failure to do so can lead to code violations and potential further legal issues. However, if the property is already in foreclosure, the lender may also take steps to secure or maintain the property.
