OTHER REAL ESTATE OWNED

NOTE H - OTHER REAL ESTATE OWNED

The Company held $636,000 of real estate owned properties at September 30, 2021 and $2.6 million at September 30, 2020. The Company incurred write-downs totaling $337,000 and $371,000 on these properties for the years ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. These amounts were carried as valuation allowances, unless the properties were sold. Further declines in real estate values may result in increased foreclosed real estate expense in the future. Routine holding costs are charged to expense as incurred and improvements to real estate owned that enhance the value of the real estate are capitalized.
