Relocation Guide for Bullitt County

Congratulations on your decision to move to Bullitt County. As a resident, I want to welcome you and to assure you that Bullitt county is a great place to live, work, and play.

I prepared this blog as a quick-reference guide to make your relocation to Shepherdsville, Mt. Washington, Brooks, or Lebanon Junction as simple as possible.



Bullitt County Community Information



The county was founded in 1797 and named after Alexander Scott Bullitt. After being unsuccessful in his humble :) attempt to get statehood for Bullitt County, Alexander served the state of KY well for several years. He assisted in drafting the state's first constitution, served as President of the KY Senate for 7 years and was the first Lieutenant Governor of the state.


Kentucky's first commercial product was salt that was processed from Bullitt County and shipped north as far as Pittsburgh and South to New Orleans. The Beam family later used these same shipping routes to convey their product out of Kentucky. After 200 years of operation, the Jim Beam Distillery still produces quality Bourbon right here in Bullitt County.


Today, almost 70,000 people live in the county. Shepherdsville is the county seat. Most government services are headquartered downtown at the courthouse and annex building. However, when you relocate you will need to go to the Extension Office located just off of I-65 on Exit 116 to get a Driver's License and register to vote.

Finding a home in Bullitt County
Bullitt County offers a diverse range of properties that will satisfy virtually anyones' needs and wants. First-time home buyers have a terrific selection of affordable homes in both new and established neighborhoods. Higher-priced homes also provide terrific values based on amenities and squre-footage. Heritage Hills is a new community that features an 18-hole golf course, a community center, and a 7-mile walking trail. Finally, for those who want a more rural setting, acres of cleared and forested land are available. Regardless of whether you want a Sportsman's Paradise, a large farm, or just a few acres of seclusion, Bullitt county has a place for you.

Bullitt County Weather

We are very fortunate in that we have all 4 seasons without extremes. Temperatures generallly range from the low-90's in August to the low-teens in January. In the fall and spring, you will quickly become accustomed to checking the weather before you leave the house. During a 2-week period in February/March of this year, we had tornadoes, ice storms, and 65 degree sunny days. Kids were having snow-balls fights one Thursday afternoon and playing in shorts the next.

Louisville Real Estate Market Conditions

Ok, I am still developing a market index for Louisville. (Actually, the index is done, I am just gathering data to make it relevant). However, I wanted to share the February numbers with everyone.

February was not a good month for Louisville home sales. I'd like to blame it on the weather (snow and tornadoes <--only in Kentucky do these happen in the same week!!), but it still seems like buyers are just being too cautious.

802 Home owners managed to sell their homes or condos. Ignoring January, this was the lowest total since January 2005. This total is over 20% lower than 1032 homes and condos sold in February 2007. Inventory levels came down a little and are now at 11.6 months, but this is still higher than any point last year.

On the bright side, the average selling price in Louisville is up 2% over last February. Additionally, most experts are predicting that rates will remain unchanged or decline slightly over the next 30 -90 days. Note to Buyers - this does not mean you should sit around and wait for a drop. Click here and here for additional thoughts.

March is shaping up to be slow as well. I predict that we will not be down 20% again, but expect 10%. House prices will continue to hold. Home builders are going to be a key factor over the next few months. They need to show patience as the peak building season approaches or the additional flood of homes will drive prices down.

Louisville Investors, Check Your ROI

Regardless of whether you are buying investment homes in Louisville, Shepherdsville, Mt Washington, or anywhere else in the metro area, there is still money to be made. I know because I am still flipping homes and doing fine. In fact, I just sold a home in Louisville and purchased another property in Shepherdsville. But, enough about me.

The ultimate measure of success for flipping homes should be ROI (Return on investment). If you can't beat some standard such as the S&P 500, the return on your IRA, or the interest rate at your local bank, then you need to rethink your purchase decision. Determining ROI is a fairly simple and straight forward calculation that you must do BEFORE purchasing.

Here's how,

For flip houses, the calculation is simple (Selling Price - Commissions and Fees) / (Purchase Price + Renovation Costs+Carrying Costs).

Selling Price - Use a conservative estimate based on CMA for that area. Your real estate agent should be able to do this for you quickly.

Commissions and Fees - Again, your real estate agent should be able to figure the commissions, transfer taxes, and additional costs associated with selling your investment.

Renovation and Carrying Costs - If you are investing in properties in the Louisville, I hope that you know how to accurately estimate the costs associated with renovations. But, do not forget to include the carrying costs (mortgage, insurance, taxes) that you have to pay as a result of owning the property.

As I mentioned above, once you complete the calculation, look around and see if you can find a better return elsewhere. If not, consider buying the property.
