This workshop takes a deeper dive into the costs of homeownership and mortgages, including how a mortgage works, the different types of mortgages available, how to save on your mortgage and more.

Presented in partnership with Each One, Teach One (EOTO).

Each One, Teach One (EOTO) workshops are delivered by volunteer certified trainers from your community credit unions.

Each workshop provides basic and plain language financial knowledge, without ties to any products or services, with the sole goal of empowering individuals to make the right financial decisions for themselves and their families.
