Thanks for the information. The realtors I've tried to deal with so far in that area are Wayne Stratton at Stratton Home Town Realty in Harrodsburg, and two agents in Danville, one from a Remax office, the other from Caldwell Bankers. Stratton has lots of listings in the Harrodsburg area but it's nearly impossible to get him to send any information out. I'll try the links you provided. KY homes is a good magazine, I picked up a copy last time I was in the area but unfortunately they are hard to get when you are out of state. One of the realtors promised to send a copy but it's been several weeks now and I haven't received anything.
I'll be getting married in the near future so I need a home for myself and my wife. I also care for my mom and grandma so I need a place for them. We were hoping to find a place with either two houses on it, a place with one home where another could be built, or a larger home with walk out basement that's set up with seperate living quarters in the top and bottom. My mom and grandma are both handicapped so at least one home or level needs to be accessible without having to use stairs. If I need to build a ramp up to a porch or something like that for them then that can be done. I'd like to get some acreage if possible. I've been looking at any where from 5 - 50 acres depending on price and location. I'd also like to have enough level land to put in a fairly large work shop / garage, around 1200 - 1500 square feet probably. I found a place in the Harrodsburg area that might have worked for us, it was 12 acres but there wasn't any land close to being suitable to build the garage on.
