I have contacted every agency I can think of in Tennessee to find out if I need a license to manufacture lotions, soap and Bath Bombs in Tennessee. Everyone says they know if no requirement. If this is true, is there a county or city license I need?

You would need a business license for the city / county where you are dong business. Beyond this the soap products are regulated -

WEALTHBUILDER Trade Mark

You chose good categories, but what you describes sounds like trademark infringement. Try reposting in the Trademark (and maybe Intellectual Property) category(s). It would have a better chance of being seen by an attorney who is knowledgeable in this area. Good luck

The house is to be short term leased from the current owner during the renovation, so the person I am loaning to won't own the property until the day before it is re-sold.

NO- if I were you, I would not loan money on real estate without a lien on that real estate. If the deal goes bad, you want to be able to force a sale of the property to get your money back. The current owner will need to sign the note and a deed of trust/mortgage.

That is not a legal issue. If the lender requires both spouses to sign a note and deed of trust, then that is their requirement. You may find another lender not requiring both spouses to sign. Potential homestead
rights of a surviving spouse are inconsequential.

For starters look at the paperwork they gave you. Big problem is the storage charges which they can still rack up. At $30 or more a day most companies will keep the wrecks as potential money makers.

session laws on Assumed Name or Tranfer of Reserved name
answered on Oct 3, 2018
Your question is unclear- there will be no "common law" on these issues. Any issues concerning a corporation's assumed name or reserved name are governed by the state statutes regarding corporations, and also perhaps the rules of the Secretary of States' office.

I didn't want to use our personal ssn. Which is the best way to go about doing so?
answered on May 31, 2018
If that is all you want to accomplish, you do not need to convert the partnership to another entity. A partnership can obtain an EIN, allowing the partnership to obtain credit and file taxes under the partnership's EIN, rather than a partner's SSN. You can apply for an EIN on the IRS website.
