5) Loan Servicing

At December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, the Company serviced SBA loans sold to the secondary market of approximately $77,973,000, $87,835,000, and $104,016,000, respectively.

Servicing assets represent the servicing spread generated from the sold guaranteed portions of SBA loans. The weighted average servicing rate for all loans serviced was 1.12%, 1.16%, and 1.12% at December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, respectively.

Servicing rights are included in “accrued interest receivable and other assets” on the consolidated balance sheets. Activity for loan servicing rights follows:

There was no valuation allowance for servicing rights at December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, because the estimated fair value of the servicing rights was greater than the carrying value. The estimated fair value of loan servicing rights was $1,172,000, $1,295,000, and $1,651,000, at December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, respectively. The fair value

of servicing rights at December 31, 2020, was estimated using a weighted average constant prepayment rate (“CPR”) assumption of 14.65%, and a weighted average discount rate assumption of 12.91%. The fair value of servicing rights at December 31, 2019, was estimated using a weighted average CPR assumption of 13.50%, and a weighted average discount rate assumption of 15.90%.  The fair value of servicing rights at December 31, 2018, was estimated using a weighted average CPR assumption of 10.89%, and a weighted average discount rate assumption of 16.40%.

The weighted average discount rate and CPR assumptions used to estimate the fair value of the I/O strip receivables are the same as for the servicing rights. Management reviews the key economic assumptions used to estimate the fair value of I/O strip receivables on a quarterly basis. The fair value of the I/O strip can be adversely impacted by a significant increase in either the prepayment speed of the portfolio or the discount rate.

I/O strip receivables are included in “accrued interest receivable and other assets” on the consolidated balance sheets. Activity for I/O strip receivables follows:
