Re: mortage lending
There was most likely a provision in your note/mortgage providing that the lender could collect a tax escrow in the event that you fall behind on the tax payments. You should contact the lender to see whether you should pay you taxes, or whether they are paying. You may also call the municipal tax collector to confirm whether the lender has brought the tax bill up to date.
