The problem

Tax and insurance reserves take away from the borrower’s bottom line — and they’re unnecessary

When a mortgage company impounds, months of your property taxes and homeowners insurance get collected up front and held in an account you can’t touch. Those reserves land in the cash-to-close on your Loan Estimate, and in high-tax states they can be a five-figure line item — capital that could have gone toward your down payment, your rate, or the work the house needs.

Background reading: what an impound account is · escrow reserves at closing · escrow waivers.

Easy Impound provides the same service, end to end, without the lender holding the money. You get the security of having taxes and insurance handled for you, and you keep the capital at closing.

Illustrative only. The dollar range shown is a typical example, not a quote — actual reserves depend on your property tax and insurance amounts, and are set by your lender based on loan program, state and closing date. Use of Easy Impound in place of a lender escrow account is subject to lender approval and loan program guidelines.

About Easy Impound

Unlock. Modernize. Streamline.

Escrow hasn’t meaningfully changed in decades. Lenders still hold homeowners’ money in accounts those homeowners can’t see, sized on stale numbers, funded with reserves collected at the worst possible moment — closing.

Easy Impound rebuilt that process around the homeowner. We connect directly to county systems and insurance carriers, we budget from the numbers that will actually apply to your property, and we pay on time. You keep your capital and the visibility.

Frequently asked questions

Is Easy Impound a replacement for my lender’s escrow account?

With Reserve Eliminator, yes — the goal is to waive the lender impound so no reserves are collected at closing and Easy Impound manages the taxes and insurance instead. Whether an escrow waiver is available depends on your loan program, LTV and lender. On high-LTV FHA and conventional loans where impound is required, California buyers can use Supplemental Tax Solution, which works alongside the servicer’s escrow rather than replacing it.

What is a supplemental tax bill and why do I need coverage for it?

In California, when a property changes ownership it is reassessed at the new purchase price. The county then issues a one-time supplemental tax bill for the difference between the previous owner’s assessed value and yours. Because servicer escrow accounts are typically sized on the previous owner’s tax amount, that bill often isn’t escrowed — it lands on the buyer directly, months after closing, and can be several thousand dollars.

Where is my money held?

Collected funds are held in FDIC-insured accounts at our banking partner and are used solely to pay the property tax and insurance obligations you enroll. All ACH transactions are protected by Plaid, which secures the connection to your bank so your account credentials are never stored by us.

Can I enroll after I’ve already closed?

Yes. Reserve Eliminator can be set up during a real estate transaction or at any point after. Reserve Eliminator Plus Supplemental is a California purchase product and must be set up in connection with a purchase.

What happens if my tax bill or premium goes up?

We monitor assessed values, tax rates and insurance renewals throughout the year. When your obligation changes, we recalculate your monthly amount and notify you before the change takes effect, so you’re never surprised by a shortage at the end of the year.

How much does it cost?

There is a one-time setup fee per property ($60 personal, $100 LLC/business, $300 private money LLC) and then an annual or monthly subscription per property, starting at $99/yr and dropping to $60/yr at higher property counts. Supplemental Tax Solution is a flat $350 technology fee at sign-up with no recurring fee. See the full pricing page.
