Well it looks like Utah’s “Home Run Grants” are going, going, …158 grants left, and there gone!
Ever since being signed into law in mid-March, the state’s “Home Run” housing grant program has been committed to the distribution of more than 1,400 grants of $6,000 each to Utah state residents purchasing newly constructed, never-occupied, single-family homes and or condos / townhomes.
The demand has far exceeded expectations to the point that the Utah Housing Corp., which administers the grants, anticipates the $10 million one-time federal stimulus money funding the program will be gone by week’s end. A check of the corporation’s Web site late Tuesday showed only 158 grants remaining.
As a means to eat through the unsold new housing inventory in the state of Utah, it looks like about 84% of the grants awarded have gone to buyers of homes priced between $100,000 and $299,999. This according to the most recent Utah Housing Corp. data that was updated June 5.
