Freddie Mac is providing additional services to credit unions under a newly restructured alliance with the Credit Union National Association.Under the new agreement, Freddie will provide a special account management team for CUs and it will provide secondary-market execution for single-loan transactions. "Other advantages include implementation and transaction fee discounts for Web-based Mortgagebot with the Loan Prospector business-to-consumer website," Freddie and CUNA said. Mortgagebot is a Web-based loan origination portal. CUNA first entered into an alliance with Freddie in 2002. CUNA senior vice president Wes Miller said the alliance provides CUs with much-needed flexibility to originate mortgages. "Through Freddie Mac, credit unions will have affordable lending solutions to meet the needs of low- and moderate income borrowers," he said.
