Loans Held for Sale [Text Block] |
6. |  | Loans held for sale
Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value. At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Bank did not have any loans held for sale. The Company has implemented a strategy of selling certain delinquent and non-performing loans. Once the Company has decided to sell a loan, the sale usually closes in a short period of time, generally within the same quarter. Loans designated held for sale are reclassified from loans held for investment to loans held for sale. Terms of sale include cash due upon the closing of the sale, no contingencies or recourse to the Company and servicing is released to the buyer. The following tables show delinquent and non-performing loans sold during the periods indicated:
