Mortgage Company, Escrow and Missing Volusia County Tax Bills
If a property owner pays real estate taxes into an escrow account, the mortgage company should request the tax bill. The property owner may receive an informational notice showing the original tax notice was sent to the escrow trustee.
Even if your mortgage company is supposed to pay, Florida law places responsibility on the property owner to know taxes are due, determine the amount of current or delinquent taxes, and pay before delinquency. If you do not receive a bill, you should still ask for the amount and pay before the delinquency date.
