The following table summarizes activity relating to residential mortgage loans sold with servicing retained for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2023 and 2022:

The following table summarizes the changes in MSRs recorded using the fair value method for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2023 and 2022:
Three Months Ended

(dollar amounts in millions) 2023 2022
Fair value, beginning of period $ 494  $ 351 
New servicing assets created 13  29 
Change in fair value during the period due to:

Payoffs (2) (4) (10)
Changes in valuation inputs or assumptions (3) (12) 51 
Fair value, end of period $ 485  $ 416 
(1)Represents decrease in value due to passage of time, including the impact from both regularly scheduled principal payments and partial loan paydowns.
(2)Represents decrease in value associated with loans that paid off during the period.
(3)Represents change in value resulting primarily from market-driven changes in interest rates.
MSRs do not trade in an active, open market with readily observable prices. Therefore, the fair value of MSRs is estimated using a discounted future cash flow model. Changes in the assumptions used may have a significant impact on the valuation of MSRs. MSR values are sensitive to movement in interest rates as expected future net servicing income depends on the projected outstanding principal balances of the underlying loans, which are impacted by the level of prepayments.
A summary of key assumptions and the sensitivity of the MSR value to changes in these assumptions at March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022 follows:
