Countrywide offers Online mortgage tool in Spanish.

Countrywide Financial Corporation announced the launch of www.MiHogarCountrywide.com http://www.mihogarcountrywide.com/> , the Spanish-language version of the Company’s Home Ownership Mortgage Education program (H.O.M.E.), www.HomeByCountrywide.com. At www.MiHogarCountrywide.com, Spanish-speaking consumers have a comprehensive online reference tool, providing consumers with information on all aspects of home ownership—from basic personal financial services to living as a homeowner.

“Countrywide’s overarching mission is to lower the barriers to home ownership so that people from all walks of life can both realize the American dream and sustain home ownership once they have achieved it,” said Countrywide Chairman and CEO Angelo R. Mozilo. “For many, a primary barrier remains a lack of understanding of the mortgage process and life as a homeowner. This barrier can be particularly strong for individuals whose primary language is not English. We are very proud to offer consumers who prefer Spanish-language resources this valuable tool that addresses specific questions and helps people fully prepare themselves as they begin the home-buying process.”
