$6,000 GRANTS WILL SOON BE AVAILABLE TO BUYERS OF NEWLY CONSTRUCTED HOMES
|
|
SALT LAKE CITY — The Utah State Legislature passed a bill last week that will provide $6000 grants to buyers of newly constructed, never-occupied homes. The program, called “Home Run,” will be immediately available to buyers who finance a recently constructed home with a 30-year fixed rate mortgage and meet other qualifications. Senate Bill 260 will create a fund that will use federal stimulus dollars to provide 1,666 grants that will be distributed through Utah Housing Corporation to Utah buyers on a first-come, first-served basis. Unlike the federal home-buyer tax credit which is available until Dec. 1, the Home Run program will only be in effect while grants are still available. We expect the grants will go quickly, so we encourage anyone interested in taking advantage of this program to start acting immediately. To apply for the grant, home buyers should work through any lender qualified to make mortgage loans under Utah law. Lenders will work directly with Utah Housing Corporation to apply for the grant money. At closing, the $6,000 will be credited toward the buyer’s down payment or closing costs. Buyers can use any type of traditional 30-year fixed-rate mortgage to qualify, including conventional, FHA, VA, USDA and Utah Housing loans. Consumers do not have to be first-time buyers to qualify for the program but incomes cannot exceed $75,000 for singles and $150,000 for married couples. Buyers who qualify can take advantage of both the $8,000 federal home-buyer tax credit as well as a Home Run grant. The Home Run program aims to clear the excess supply of unoccupied real estate inventory on the market. For more information regarding this program and others available, please contact us directly at contact@mountainvalleyexperts.com You can also contact us at 801-829-6600 or

Why are more and more people choosing Morgan County as a place to live? Morgan is close to Salt Lake City, Ogden, Layton, Salt Lake International Airport and Park City in northern Utah. Morgan County real estate values have grown faster than any other area in Utah, with the exception of the Saint George area.
Local residents enjoy peaceful, scenic mountain town living close to the city. This a place that is still largely in it's natural state. A place where wide open spaces and wildlife abound. A place where you can see millions of stars in the night sky. And best of all, a place full of friendly, caring neighbors. People are choosing to purchase homes, condos, townhomes, patio homes, horse property, large land parcels,vacant building lots and commercial real estate in Morgan County because it is away from the pollution, traffic congestion and crime of the Wasatch Front (Salt Lake City metro area).
Morgan County consists of several small towns, with Mountain Green and Morgan being the two largest towns. Other small town centers include Porterville, Richville, Milton, Peterson, Stoddard, Enterprise, Croydon and Taggart.
Morgan County is one of northern Utah's best locations for those who enjoy outdoor activities. Residents and visitors alike enjoy winter and spring skiing at Snowbasin Ski Resort, home of several 2002 Winter Olympic events. East Canyon resevoir, resort and park is a fun place to fish, water ski, swim and camp. Devil's Slide is a famous rock formation near Croydon, and can be seen from I-84. Croydon is also home of the annual Widowmaker dirt bike challenge event. Lost Creek resevoir and state park is just 15 minutes north of Croydon. The Browning Factory Outlet, a famous outdoor gear and apparel store is one of Morgan's unique retail businesses. Round valley golf course will soon become the new Rivala Professional Golf Course, designed by Johnny Miller. It will be a golf course resort with homes and condos for local families as well as those who are looking for a vacation home or second home.
Morgan County is just 15 minutes from Huntsville, Liberty and Eden, which are referred to as the Ogden Valley. The Ogden Valley is a popular area for skiing, offering Snowbasin, Powder Mountain and Wolf Creek ski resorts, some of Utah's favorite skiing destinations. Pineview resevoir is also a popular place to swim, jet ski, boat fish, or own a lake front property.
Mountain Green is the home of three of northern Utah's most upscale new home developments. The Cottonwoods subdivision, Rollins Ranch subdivision and Whisper Ridge subdivision are currently selling lots for building new homes. They are high-end home communities with approximately 50% open space and community centers, swimming pools, walking paths, fishing ponds, and unbelievable mountain views. If you've thought about living in a pristine mountain setting in a new home, you may want to call The Mountain Valley Real Estate Team...
