Yes. Read your mortgage and agreement....anything that can challenege their right to the property...whcih unpaid tax can, means they can act to protect their interest. You'll probably find you agreed to pay all tax and insurance as they became due...and not doing so means your in default of your agreement.

Is it normal when buying a house to pay up front a year taxes and insurance?

No, typically if insurance and taxes are required in the loan by the lender they are part of the monthly bill. However, if you purchased property is a distressed sales (forclosure/short sale) and the current owner is delinquent on taxes those have to be paid before the county will register your deed of trust. Paying for insurance in advance sounds fishy to me, have you spoken with your agent?


How home loans work?

Home loans, or mortgages, are financial agreements where a lender provides funds to a borrower to purchase a home. The borrower agrees to repay the loan amount, plus interest, over a specified period, typically 15 to 30 years. The home itself serves as collateral, meaning if the borrower fails to make payments, the lender can foreclose on the property. Monthly payments often include principal, interest, property taxes, and homeowners insurance.

Does property taxes override the deed to a house?

Property taxes do not override the deed to a house, but they can create a lien against the property. If property taxes remain unpaid, the government may have the right to foreclose on the property, potentially leading to its sale to recover the owed taxes. Therefore, while the ownership deed remains valid, failure to pay property taxes can result in significant consequences for the property owner.
