Pentagon Federal Credit Union, Alexandria, Va., the nation's third largest credit union, said Friday it has signed with Sun West Mortgage Co. to offer reverse mortgages to its members. PenFed, one of the biggest mortgage lenders among credit unions, will initially market the federally insured Home Equity Conversion Mortgage reverse mortgage to its members located in Washington, D.C.; Maryland and Virginia. PenFed's Reverse Mortgage eliminates the upfront origination fee - 2% of the adjusted property value - and the $35 monthly servicing fee, which are customary in the industry. Consequently, PenFed's competitively priced reverse mortgage will make additional home equity available to the homeowner.
