Is there escrow with buying a house and a loan?

Ok. I'm buying a home and they're talking about the escrow. Then the loan officer is talking about how I need escrow. So is it all the same? Or are these different escrows? And what does that even mean?

Yes in some states they use escrow. Escrow is a third part that handles all of the paperwork between mortgages co, title, both agents and buyers and sellers. They make sure that everything is taken care of in a timely manner.

Your mortgage payment includes your mortgage payment Plus the items (home insurance, property taxes, PMI & there may be some others) that the bank will collect a portion of money to be held in escrow as part of your TOTAL mortgage payment.
