The National Consumers League has announced the launch of MortgageTown, a website aimed at helping prospective buyers understand the risks and benefits of homeownership. MortgageTown explains "nine essential steps" to financing a home, advising consumers on choosing the right loan, closing on a home, protecting themselves from fraud and predatory lenders, and preventing foreclosure. "MortgageTown is a user-friendly and reliable source where consumers can become better versed in the process of getting a mortgage and what pitfalls to avoid as they head down that road," said NCL executive director Sally Greenberg. The new website can be found online at http://www.mortgaetown.org.
