RESIDENTIAL LOAN PROGRAM We process substantially all of our originations of residential real estate loans through a third-party mortgage company. Residential real estate borrowers submit applications to us, but the loan is approved by and closed on the books of the mortgage company. In recent months, we have purchased loans from this third-party mortgage company as a means of diversifying the loan portfolio improving net interest income. Nearly half of the loans we bought back in recent months were from applications originated by Westfield Bank. The remainder was originated by the mortgage company’s originators in western Massachusetts and northern Connecticut.
