In addition to devastating those who lose their homes, foreclosures also harm neighboring homeowners by lowering property values. In fact, the crisis will cost homeowners not facing foreclosure an …

Tips to avoid Forclosure

Historic Hartford
Hartford, located at the end of the navigable portion of the Connecticut River, was settled in 1623 as a Dutch trading post called House of Hope. In 1636, a group of English settlers led by the Reverend Thomas Hooker left Massachusetts and formed a colony here. The settlers made peace with the local Algonquin Indians, who called the town Saukiog, and renamed it after Hertford, England.

Early in its existence Hartford made a significant contribution to the burgeoning society. The Fundamental Orders adopted by the colony in 1639, was the first document in history to …
