Investment property in Kentucky: the local rules.
Timeline & foreclosure
Kentucky foreclosures take 6–7 months in court. We can usually close in 10–14 days and pay off your lender well before any sale date.
Kentucky is a judicial foreclosure state.
Closing custom
An attorney typically prepares the deed and a title company closes the deal in Kentucky. You engage both directly.
Local demand
Louisville and Lexington dominate buyer activity, so offers there tend to be the most competitive. Bowling Green and Northern Kentucky (Cincinnati metro) are steady secondary markets.

Glossary
Key terms for investment property in Benton.
- ARV (After-Repair Value)
- What the Benton property will sell for once renovated. Drives every offer formula; sanity-check it against sold comps within a half-mile and the last 90 days.
- 70% rule
- Max offer ≈ (ARV × 0.70) − rehab. A starting point, not a law; tight markets routinely transact at 75–80% of ARV.
- Assignment
- Selling your purchase contract to another investor before closing. The end buyer takes title; you collect an assignment fee.
- DSCR loan
- Debt-Service-Coverage-Ratio loan that qualifies on the property's rent — not your personal income. The standard way to scale past Fannie's 10-financed-property cap.
