At September 30, 2017 and 2016, we serviced loans sold to unaffiliated parties in the amounts of $482.0 million and $485.1 million, respectively. These represented loans that have been sold for which the Bank continues to provide servicing. These loans are maintained off balance sheet and are not included in the loans receivable balance. All of the loans serviced were SBA loans.

The Company recorded servicing fee income of $1.2 million for each of the three-month periods ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, and $3.5 million and $3.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Servicing fee income, net of the amortization of servicing assets and liabilities, is included in other operating income in the consolidated statements of income. Net amortization expense was $624,000 and $598,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $1.7 million and $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
