Homestead Flags has Y

Posted on: 05th Apr, 2010 06:49 pm
My mother has two flags that are checked with Y. One for Homestead and the other for 2.5%. Now she wants to know why did her taxes go up $200.00 and why is part of the money in escrow?

Thanks
Hi phillipacampbell!

Welcome to forums!

I guess the property taxes have been reassessed and the lender must have found that the taxes have been increased. As a result, the taxes have gone up for your mother. I guess, that there has been some excess amount left in the escrow account after paying off the last year's taxes. The lender will send an escrow overage check to your mother.
