Goodwill and other intangible assets acquired in a business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized but tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if events and circumstances exist that indicate that a goodwill impairment test should be performed. Intangible assets with definite useful lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives, which range from 5 to 12 years. Goodwill is the only intangible asset with an indefinite life on the consolidated balance sheets.

As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company's goodwill totaled $26.8 million and $19.6 million, respectively.

The Company retains servicing rights on mortgages originated and sold to the secondary market. The Company records mortgage servicing rights (“MSR”) assets initially at fair value and subsequently accounts for them under the amortization method, pursuant to which an impairment assessment is performed each reporting period. The amortization method requires that the MSR assets be recorded at the lower of cost or fair value. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the carrying value of MSR assets were $15.0 million and $7.1 million, respectively.
