Herbert's office released a statement Friday saying that the state will offer $4,000 grants to 2,000 home buyers.
The program comes on the heels of one started by former Gov. Jon Huntsman, who used $10 million in stimulus funds offer $6,000 grants.
The state awarded those 1,600 grants in less than 12 weeks earlier this year.
The Utah Housing Corporation says t
he grants have led to home sales of $376.7 million, creating thousands of jobs and millions of dollars in wages.
So if you are looking to buy a home this year, now is the time to get on the ball and take action.
If you don't you're missing out on free money.
