House where Gov. Matt Bevin living sold at fair price, says seller
FRANKFORT, Ky. The man who recently sold the house where Gov. Matt Bevins family is now living says the property sold at a fair market price.
The recent $1.6 million sales price is far below values listed for the property by the Jefferson County Property Valuation Administrator including a brand new value posted Friday. But Neil Ramsey, who sold the house, said the PVA values are too high for several reasons, including that a deed recording a prior sale of the property included wrong information that caused the PVA to list too high a value.
It was sold at fair market value, Ramsey said in an interview following a Thursday meeting of the board of the Kentucky Retirement Systems. Ramsey, appointed to the board by Bevin, has been a donor to Bevin's campaign for governor, the Republican Party of Kentucky and the Bevin inauguration committee.
The Courier-Journal reported recently that Bevins family apparently is living in the Anchorage house, which deed records show a Ramsey company called The Anchorage LLC sold to a company called Anchorage Place LLC on March 9 for $1.6 million.
