My mortgage company raised my monthly payment because they based my payment on last years tax figures, however I have since applied for the homestead exemption which will significantly reduce my tax figure. I mailed my regular mortgage payment (the figure without the estimated escrow shortage) and they have not applied the amount because they say that it is short $26.00. Why do they not apply my payment to principal and interest and leave the shortage in escrow instead of not applying any payment? Is this legal?
A lot of lenders will not accept a payment even a couple of dollars short. Your best bet would be to send the full payment until you can come to an agreement with your lender and have that in writing. I hope this helps...
Definately lender will not except short payment. so make sure for full payment

yes...pay what they ask for, because you risk being in default if you neglect to do so. you can always argue with them later.
