Lenders want to pay your taxes and homeowners insurance on your behalf when they are due. This helps protect their investment.
Your lender will collect 1/12 of your yearly property taxes and 1/12 of your yearly homeowners premium with each months payment.
When you originally buy the home they will collect a couple of additional months reserves for each of these categories.
When it comes time to pay your property taxes, the lender will have the full amount escrowed ( saved ) for you. They will then forward the tax payment on your behalf. The same is true with your homeowners insurance.
