Relocating to Kentucky ...HELP!!!!
Hello everyone. I currently live in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. My husband is transferring to a company facility located in the Ghent, KY area. I live a suburb type life. I home school my 13 year old daughter and have an 17 year old son. I am not a "country/rural" girl, as I've worked as a paralegal in downtown Baton Rouge. This might sound crazy, but I miss "sidewalks", etc... We are shooting for Lagrange, KY. Is there any suggestions of a "townhome"/"condo" that we can rent until we find the right house?
Thank you.

Yes, there are Town homes and condo's in the LaGrange area. I do not recommend either as both place your financial future in the hands of others. For example, you move into a 10 unit condo. One or two of the owners default. This effectively makes everyone in the unit directly face the effects of foreclosure, this is anywhere in the US.

She asked for ones to rent. While she looked for a house. So what are the good ones to rent?

Personally I don't care for the rural parts of Northern KY at all, so either LaGrange or Boone Co would be much better options IMO.
I looked up Ghent on Google Maps, it is 33 miles from LaGrange and 32 miles from the edge of the Cincinnati suburbs in KY - basically the Richwood/ Union area

You are correct. I slipped. I am generally the one who reads so much better than I did on this thread. My apologies.
I would rather see you rent from an apartment complex. Sorta let painters paint and plumbers plumb kinda thing. However, I am not opposed to a good house/condo etc when things are well managed. |
