LINK nky now has access to all of the public residential sales data in Boone, Kenton and Campbell Counties, and records show that developers and trusts are willing to shell out high prices for homes and land, even when it’s small.
Case in point: A small property on Hogrefe Road in Independence sold for about $1.2 million in late January, according to Kenton County property records, even though existing photo evidence shows the house on the land to be somewhat diminutive.
Records indicate the land was purchased by Glenhurst 2, an LLC with an Arlinghaus Builders manager listed as its registered agent with the Secretary of State’s Office. Arlinghaus is in the process of expanding the Greens of Glenhurst neighborhood nearby, and county property records list new construction as the reason the Hogrefe house was bought up. The previous owners had bought the property for $85,000 in 2004.
Trusts, meanwhile, dominate the high purchases in Campbell County, with multiple different trusts paying over a million dollars for homes. The highest-selling home in Campbell County, a property in Newport, went for almost $1.3 million.
Finally, the highest-selling property in Boone County was a home in Union in the Triple Crown development, which went for $1.3 million at the end of January.
Homeowners must register with the county anytime they buy or sell a property. That information is all public record, so we can use the information to track trends and figures for Boone, Kenton and Campbell counties. Other sources of information, such as data from realtor organizations and government data tracking projects, can also paint a picture of real estate trends over time.
There was a combined total of 276 residential properties sold in Boone, Kenton and Campbell counties in January.
Property sales in the region tended to cluster in the $200,000 to $500,000 price range. Data from the Northern Kentucky Association of Realtors put the median sale price for homes in January at $280,000, lower than January 2025’s median of $299,000. These figures are, admittedly, broad since the association’s service area is larger than Boone, Kenton and Campbell.
Kenton County’s median (i.e., middle) sales price of $297,500 based on public sales records was the closest to the realtors’ aggregate median. Median sales prices in Campbell County were lower at $230,000. Campbell County also saw the highest number of homes sold between $0 and the $200,000 range, making it the most affordable county in the region, a trend that continues from December. Boone County’s median sales price was the highest at $340,000.
