Escrow accounts are used to pay property taxes and homeowners insurance, while paying down the principal reduces the overall amount you owe on the loan. So, which should you prioritize? In general, it&#8217;s usually more beneficial to pay additional funds towards the principal if you have the option. Doing so can help you save money on interest over the life of the loan and potentially pay off your mortgage sooner. However, it&#8217;s important to consider your individual financial situation and goals before making a decision.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQs\"><\/span>FAQs:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_What_is_an_escrow_account\"><\/span>1.
