Loan Sales and Servicing Activities

Note 6—Loan Sales and Servicing Activities

The Company originates or purchases and sells loans in the secondary mortgage market without recourse for credit losses. However, the Company maintains continuing involvement with the loans in the form of servicing arrangements and the liability under representations and warranties it makes to purchasers and insurers of the loans.

The following table summarizes cash flows between the Company and transferees as a result of the sale of loans in transactions where the Company maintains continuing involvement with the loans as servicer:

	Quarter ended June 30,				Six months ended June 30,
	2024		2023		2024		2023
	(in thousands)
Cash flows:
Sales proceeds	$	24,860,532	$	25,024,768	$	44,537,449	$	38,410,109
Servicing fees received	$	348,730	$	282,315	$	684,978	$	550,738

The Company is contractually responsible for making the payments required to protect the loans’ beneficial interest holders’ interests in the properties collateralizing their loans and may, therefore, be required to advance amounts in excess of insurer or guarantor reimbursement limits. Therefore, the Company provides a valuation allowance on the servicing advances for these amounts in excess of amounts that are expected to ultimately be recovered from the loans’ insurers, guarantors, or beneficial interest holders.

The servicing advance valuation allowance is estimated based on relevant qualitative and quantitative information about past events, including historical collection and loss experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect collectable amounts. The provision for losses on servicing advances is included in Servicing expense in the consolidated statements of income. Servicing advances are written off when they are deemed unrecoverable.

The following is a summary of the allowance for losses on servicing advances:

	Quarter ended June 30,				Six months ended June 30,
