Paying Your Taxes and Insurance Through Escrow
When you own a home, you are also required to pay for your annual property taxes and home insurance. But this can become tedious. So lenders require you to deposit money into an escrow account to make sure your taxes and insurance are paid. An escrow account--a sort of savings account--is set up to protect the lender from borrowers who miss payments toward their real estate taxes and insurance premiums. If these are not paid, local tax authorities may place a lien on your property. What that means is if the property is being sold, it may cause problems until the party who is owed is paid. It is possible to avoid escrow and pay your own taxes and insurance. Usually, this is done if your loan-to-value ratio (LTV) is less than 80 percent. If it is more than 80 percent, you may be required to escrow until the mortgage is paid down to less than 80 percent LTV. However, paying taxes and insurance through escrow can be a great convenience. Mortgages can be complicated enough and this is one less thing homeowners have to worry about. Some find it easier than having to write a large check in the summer and a larger check in the winter for their property taxes as well as other checks to cover insurance premiums. You should be aware that even if you have a long-term fixed-rate loan, your mortgage payment can vary. The principal and interest portion of your payment is fixed, as the name suggests. However, tax assessments may change and insurance premiums may fluctuate, thus making your entire payment vary somewhat.
