Crappity crap crap crap. I got a bill from the mortgage company. Seems my escrow was $850 short due to an increase in property taxes. I can pay it but I cant pay it AND fix my truck, at least not in the same month. Not paying rolls it to the mortgage which would be ok if I knew I could afford the extra per month. Somehow $850 = $150/mo, new math?
Also I guess this answers my question to do or not to do the bead show. I think it just became an every-little-bit-helps kinda thing, never mind that the last show only netted $300 for two days. - Shannon - GlassMistress
They are probably calculating for 6 month winter/summer tax increase. They love to increase escrow but are sure slow in decreasing. I'm surprised they gave you the choice of paying out of pocket. - Michael W. May
In this case its the sewer installation. If I could have paid it out of pocked last year it would have been 11k instead it has rolled into the property taxes where it will become about $17k. Ah the joys of owning a home. - Shannon - GlassMistress
