Fair Value Measurement Inputs and Valuation Techniques

The following table presents quantitative information about the valuation techniques and unobservable inputs applied to Level 3 fair value measurements for financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis:



	December 31, 2021				December 31, 2020
Unobservable Input	Range of inputs			Weighted Average (2)	Range of inputs			Weighted Average (2)
IRLCs:
Pull-through rate	0.3%	-	99.3%	74.2%	2.8%	-	99.9%	70.5%

Servicing rights
Discount rate(1)	4.5%	-	9.0%	5.8%	5.0%	-	10.0%	6.2%
Prepayment rate(1)	8.4%	-	18.7%	10.2%	13.4%	-	34.8%	14.0%
Cost to service (per loan)	$70	-	$114	$82	$71	-	$139	$89

(1)The Company estimates the fair value of MSRs using an option-adjusted spread (“OAS”) model, which projects MSR cash flows over multiple interest rate scenarios in conjunction with the Company’s prepayment model, and then discounts these cash flows at risk-adjusted rates.

(2)Weighted average inputs are based on the committed amounts for IRLCs and the UPB of the underlying loans for servicing rights.
