Default I believe it's quarterly. I dunno - I just pay into an escrow account as part of my mortgage payment

I don't really think about it until the end of the year when they tell me if I overpaid or underpaid.

Default How does the escrow work? Do they automatically forward the money to the county when the tax is due?

I applied for a mortgage with escrow...

TIA.

Default yes and they pay twice a year.

I did the same and I'm thinking if it's really worth having escrow.

Default Without escrow, I would've had to pay a no-escrow fee that would've gone straight to the lender and

then I'd have to pay taxes on top of that. I opted for the escrow.
