Kentucky Landlord Bundle: 3 Kits in One Download (Kentucky Landlord Kit, Kentucky Small Claims Kit, Eviction Case File Organizer)

Who it is for

Landlords and property managers with rentals in Kentucky: the state's rules, a small claims case for unpaid rent or damage, and an eviction case file if it comes to that.

Not the right fit if

Your rentals aren't in Kentucky, or you only need one of the kits. Not a property management or legal service.

Why it is different

• 3 kits for 30% less than buying them one by one; each keeps its own folder in the download.
• The Kentucky kits are built only from our Kentucky data files: Kentucky data files, checked November 2026 against 7 official pages, among them Kentucky General Assembly: KRS 383.580, Security deposits; Kentucky General Assembly: KRS 383.695 (Periodic tenancy); Kentucky General Assembly: KRS 383.615 (Access); Kentucky Revised Statutes 383.210; Kentucky Court of Justice: AOC-220 Eviction Notice, Warrant for Possession (Rev. 5-14); Kentucky Court of Justice: AOC-217 Forcible Detainer Judgment (Rev. 4-23); Kentucky small claims data file, checked November 2026 against Kentucky Court of Justice: Small Claims Handbook (P-6, rev. January 2025).
• Eviction Case File Organizer covers every state; the Kentucky kits carry the state rules.
