Repurchase Reserves

We maintain reserves for possible repurchases that we may be required to make of certain of the mortgage loans which we sell due to deficiencies or defects that may be found to exist in such loans. The following table sets forth information, at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, with respect to such reserves:

We did not repurchase any loans in the six months ended June 30, 2013 or six months ended June 30, 2012. We review the repurchase reserves throughout the year for adequacy.

Mortgage Servicing Rights

We sometimes retain mortgage servicing rights on mortgage loans that we sell. Such rights represent the net positive cash flows generated from the servicing of such mortgage loans and we recognize such rights as assets on our statements of financial condition based on their estimated fair values. We receive servicing fees, less any subservicing costs, on the unpaid principal balances of such mortgage loans. Those fees are collected from the monthly payments made by the mortgagors or from the proceeds of the sale or foreclosure and liquidation of the underlying real property collateralizing the loans. We also generally receive various mortgagor-contracted fees, such as late charges, collateral reconveyance charges and nonsufficient fund fees. In addition, we generally are entitled to retain interest earned on funds held pending remittance (or float) related to the collection of principal, interest, taxes and insurance payments on the mortgage loans which we service. At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, mortgage servicing rights totaled $3.8 million and $2.8 million, respectively, and are included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated statement of financial condition.

The following table sets forth the principal amounts of the mortgage loans we were servicing, categorized by type of loan, at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, we were servicing approximately $488 million, and $456 million, respectively, in principal amount of mortgage loans with the following characteristics:
