        It’s a bug in that if you pay cash for a house, you won’t be paying into escrow for tax and insurance. Banks require that in the vast majority of mortgages.

        This is just a simple online mortgage calculator so it factors in escrow into the monthly payment since that’s what pretty much everyone is going to have.
