Heather Moore+FollowDo You Really Own Your Home Anymore?Ever feel like your house is less yours and more like a never-ending group project with the government?

Matthew Jackson+FollowHomeowners Hit by Surprise Monthly CostsThinking about buying a house? Watch out for those sneaky escrow payments! More of your monthly mortgage is now going to cover rising property taxes and insurance, especially if you live somewhere prone to wild weather.

If you’re budgeting for a new home, pad your numbers—those “fixed” payments aren’t so fixed anymore. #RealEstate #Homeownership #MoneyHacks10Share
