Property Taxes on Condo?

Question

I received a bill from my town for the property tax/ 2009 on my condo (just bought in April). I thought this was included with my FHA mortgage loan. Looking on my recent mortgage bill, it doesn't mention taxes in the breakdown, just escrow. Do I need to forward this bill from the town to my lender? Thanks!

Answer 1

Escrow is most likely for taxes and insurance.  Call your lender to make sure - they might have also already gotten a copy of the tax bill, or you might have to forward it to them.

Answer 2

Usually, your taxes are included in the escrow payment you make each month.  You can call your lender to be 100% sure, but I'm pretty sure you're paying your taxes in escrow.  In that case, yes, you would send the bill to the lender.
