Explanation
Mortgage servicers are required by RESPA to conduct annual escrow account analyses to ensure the account has adequate funds to pay property taxes and insurance while maintaining the permitted cushion (maximum 2 months). If the analysis shows a shortage (underfunding), the servicer adjusts the monthly escrow payment. An overage may be returned to the borrower. Oregon borrowers receive annual escrow statements.
