Arlington, VA (June 11, 2025) — National Cooperative Bank (NCB), a leading financial services company dedicated to providing banking products and services to cooperatives, their members, and socially responsible organizations nationwide, has joined forces with the ABA Foundation for its ‘Unlocking Homeownership’ campaign this June in celebration of American Housing Month. The campaign, inaugurally launched in 2024, seeks to respond to the nation’s housing challenges by helping promote homeownership education and counseling.
As a part of the campaign, NCB will share tipsheets and other resources throughout the month of June to help educate consumers on the homebuying process and guide existing homeowners on how to retain their homes.
“We know that for many Americans homeownership can often feel unattainable,” said Chris Goettke, Executive Vice President, Retail Lending. “Our hope is that through this campaign, with consistent outreach and education, we can make this a goal within reach for our customers and communities.”
Throughout the month, NCB will share tipsheets and resources on some of the following topics:
• Choosing an affordable home;
• Saving for a down payment;
• Know your financial health;
• Mortgage terms;
• Mortgage loan process;
• Mortgage closing process;
• Understanding a monthly mortgage statement;
• Home equity;
• Mortgage payment change;
• Avoiding foreclosure;
• Home appreciation;
• Planning for the future; and
• Estate planning.
