Selling a House in Independence, KY: A Few Local Things to Know
A town with deep roots. Independence got its name in 1840, the year Kenton County was formed out of Campbell County. Today it shares county seat duties with Covington, and the Kenton County Courthouse still sits on Madison Pike in the old center of town.
Old homes and new subdivisions. Independence grew a lot through annexations from the 1960s to the 1980s, and it now covers more than 23 square miles. You will find older homes near the courthouse, lots of newer subdivisions off Madison Pike (KY 17), Taylor Mill Road and Richardson Road, and more rural lots toward the edges. If your neighborhood has an HOA, it helps to have the contact, any dues owed and any open notices handy. If your home is on a septic system instead of city sewer, it is good to know that up front too.
Estates, records and taxes. Independence is in Kenton County. In Kentucky, estates usually go through probate in the county District Court, home values are set by the Kenton County PVA (Property Valuation Administrator), and property taxes are collected by the Kenton County Sheriff. If you are behind on taxes or handling an inherited house, we are happy to work with your attorney or recommend one we have worked with.
You have options. If your house is in good shape and you have time, listing with an agent can bring the highest price. If repairs, timing or a tough situation make that hard, selling as-is to a cash buyer can be simpler. We will tell you honestly which one makes more sense for you, even if it isn’t us.
