<p>Hi-</p>

<p>I'm sorry for sounding stupid, but I am a first time buyer and everything is so new to me. I have an impound account with my loan which as I understand it will pay for my property tax, and I will not have to worry about it but the lender should take care of it. </p>

<p>My question is about the bill I got in the mail from the Treasurer-Tax Collector-County of Orange stating that I need to pay also this supplemental tax bill.</p>

<p>Is this normal? I hadn't heard of this. If it helps any, I purchased a new home in Columbus Grove.</p>

<p>Thanks for any help you can give.</p>
 
<p>That's the bill for the difference in taxes between the assessment while in your builder's hands, versus the assessment after being purchased (for a greater amount) by you. </p>

<p>You could probably forward it to your loan servicer, or pay it and provide the evidence to the servicer.</p>

<p>In either case, you should confirm that your servicer is collecting the proper amount from you going forward.</p>

<p>That would include your basic tax rate on your purchase price plus any mello-roos. If the purchase price is the basis, it will by definition be enough for the supplemental bill you are concerned with.</p>
 
<p>Thanks for the link Laing_Lies.</p>

<p>And thanks for the info and congrats Janet! It is pretty exciting. (To buy, not pay taxes lol) </p>

<p>I'm not too familiar with the Irvine communities... is it a house or condo/townhome? Will you be doing landscaping? If so, I'm currently trying to get bids for projects, myself and need recommendations of affordable companies!</p>
 
Laing_Lies: It's a townhome and we have to pay 2 associations which include the landscaping. Sorry, I don't think that will help you.
 
Hi Joy, just curious why you bought recently with the analysis you have available on this and other blogs; what kind of financing did you use, if you're willing to share? Thanks!
 
<p>Federer, of course!</p>

<p>Is this a trick question? </p>

<p>Yes! Federer! </p>

<p>Although based on his performance yesterday against Davydenko, I'm kinda worried about today. Djokovic looks like he may be peaking.</p>
 
Sorry, I signed off after I read what I wanted to know. I bought when they were first being built because hubby and I both work in Irvine and we thought this would work out best for our needs. We got a 30yr fixed. Hope that answers your questions.
 
<p>Joy,</p>

<p>Every supplemental tax bill I've gotten after a purchase, was my responsibility to pay (outside of escrow/impounds). Call your provider and ask before just sending the bill to them. If I had sent them the supp bill, they would not have paid it.</p>

<p>Congrats on the house, well done on the 30 yr fixed. Hope it all works out for you. </p>
