If you have an escrow account with a mortgage do you pay interest on the escrow amount of the payment each month?

Interest is only calculated on the principal balance of the loan. For example, on a 30 year loan, if your principal balance (or loan balance is $100,000.00, and your interest rate is 5.000%, your monthly Principal and Interest payment amount would be about $537.00. Your first payment would include approximately $417.00 in interest, which would gradually decrease, as the principal payment would increase If you have a reserve or escrow account set up for the payment of Taxes and Hazard/Homeowners Insurance, then your monthly payment would include the monthly payment amount for those items.

Below is an itemization of a typical mortgage payment with the above Principal and Interest calculation, and showing how your mortgage lender will calculate the monthly amounts Annual Property Taxes: $3000.00 / 12 Months Monthly Tax Amount: $250.00 Annual Hazard/HO Insurance: $600.00 / 12 Months Monthly Insurance Amount: $50.00 Principal: $120.00 Interest: $417.00 Tax: $250.00 Insurance: $50.00 TOTAL PAYMENT $837.00 For more information on this subject, visit this website.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
