Loans Receivable and the Allowance for Loan Losses | Note 6 — Loans Receivable and the Allowance for Loan Losses Loans are stated at unpaid principal balances plus net deferred loan origination fees and costs less an allowance for loan losses. Interest on loans receivable is recorded on the accrual basis. An allowance for uncollected interest is established on loans where management has determined that the borrowers may be unable to meet contractual principal and/or interest obligations or where interest or principal is 90 days or more past due, unless the loans are well secured with a reasonable expectation of collection. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual, an allowance for uncollected interest is established and charged against current income. Thereafter, interest income is not recognized unless the financial condition and payment record of the borrower warrant the recognition of interest income. Generally, loans are restored to accrual status when the obligation is brought current, has performed in accordance with the contractual terms for a reasonable period of time and the ultimate collectability of the total contractual principal and interest is no longer in doubt. Interest on loans that have been restructured is accrued according to the renegotiated terms. Net loan origination fees and costs are deferred and amortized into interest income over the contractual lives of the related loans by use of the level yield method. Past due status of loans is based upon the contractual due date. Prepayment penalties received on loans which pay in full prior to the scheduled maturity are included in interest income in the period the prepayment penalties are collected. The composition of loans were as follows at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020: September 30, December 31, 2021 2020 (In Thousands) Residential real estate: One-to-four family $ 4,766 $ 6,170 Multi-family 91,118 90,506 Mixed-use 24,440 30,508 Total residential real estate 120,324 127,184 Non-residential real estate 52,020 60,665 Construction 633,263 545,788 Commercial and industrial 103,808 90,577 Overdrafts 14 452 Consumer 37 42 Total Loans 909,466 824,708 Allowance for loan losses (5,242) (5,088) Deferred loan (fees) costs, net 326 113 $ 904,550 $ 819,733 Loans serviced for the benefit of others totaled approximately $5,760,000 and $11,876,000 at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The value of mortgage servicing rights was not material at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. There was no loan sales during the three months ended at September 30, 2021 or 2020. Two loans were sold at par totaling $3,148,000, net of interest reserve of $242,000, with no gain or loss recognized on the sale during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. There was no loan sales during the nine months ended at September 30, 2020. The Company did not issue Payroll Protection Program (“PPP”) loans associated with the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2021 (the “CARES Act”) in 2021 or 2020. The Company had no loans to related parties at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. In addition, the Company did not originate any loans to related parties in 2021 or 2020. The allowance for loan losses represents management’s estimate of losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the statement of financial condition date and is recorded as a reduction to loans. The allowance for loan losses is increased by the provision for loan losses, and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries. Loans deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance for loan losses, and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. All, or part, of the principal balance of loans receivable are charged off to the allowance as soon as it is determined that the repayment of all, or part, of the principal balance is highly unlikely. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level considered adequate to provide for losses that can be reasonably anticipated. Management performs a quarterly evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance. The allowance is based on the Company’s past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, composition of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions, and other relevant factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

The loan is secured by commercial real estate located in Greenwich, Connecticut and guaranteed by the borrowers. The loan was originated in 2016 as a bridge loan and, upon the borrower’s failure to satisfy the loan at the maturity date, the loan was accelerated and a foreclosure action was instituted. The loan remains in foreclosure but is subject to Connecticut’s continuing foreclosure backlog. The property securing the loan is subject to a parking easement and based on a recently updated appraisal showing the property’s value with the parking easement to be million loan as a non-cash charge against the allowance for loan losses. The Company intends to aggressively seek recovery of all amounts due from the personal guarantors of the loan. However, the recovery process is uncertain and might take an extended period of time to resolve this matter. In the event the Company is successful against the guarantors, any recovery received would be added back to the allowance for loan losses and an analysis will be performed at that time to determine the appropriateness of recognizing the recovery into income. Additionaly the provision expenses recorded for commercial and industrial loan and construction loan segments were primarily due to increased loan balances, and the credit provision recorded for residential real estate loan segment was due to decreased loan balance. During the three months ended September 30, 2020, the provision expenses recorded were primarily attributed to the perceived potential credit risk associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, although no specific or probable losses were identified at that time, as well as increased loan balances in construction loan and commercial and industrial loan segments. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the provision expenses recorded were primarily attributed to the previously disclosed charge-off of During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the provision expenses recorded were primarily attributed to the perceived potential credit risk associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, although no specific or probable losses were identified at that time, as well as increased loan balances in construction loan and commercial and industrial loan segments.
