Escrow is a procedure in which a disinterested neutral third party holds the legal documents and funds on behalf of a seller or a buyer. Also, it is an account created by the lender to pay the property taxes and insurance premiums or to cover repairs.
Escrow Account is established at the time of closing of a mortgage loan. An escrow account is set up by the lender. It is set for future payments as they become due of recurring items relating to the mortgaged property. The borrower makes periodic payments, usually monthly, for- - Real estate taxes.

Hi,
You should discuss with your lender about other alternatives that can be possible like :
#Special Forbearance
#Pre-foreclosure sale
#Mortgage Modification
#Deed-in-lieu of foreclosure
#Partial Claim |

Hi Mous,
A process of Loss Mitigation might still be a possibility to avoid foreclosure, for which you will have to take help from the lender.
Have a look at the page I have mentioned above, it will help you know more about the ways open for you.
