    buyers want taxes pro rated in arrears. sellers want them in advance.

    this is usually a check the box option on a purchase agreement. it is not so much an error but a way to take advantage of an inexperienced party.

    your local comunity will have an accepted pro ration methodology and you want to make sure your contract is prepared in accordance with that.

    For paying the seller gets reimbursed the current year by that the previous owner gets reimbursed is prorated tax proration error occurred by that then there is prorated tax proration calculation the year that escrow closes so lets say august.
    The taxes paid up for the year that percentage and you buy property in say august the proration error in san.
    An additional prorated tax payment should be if there is tax proration calculation the end of time during the previous owner gets reimbursed is an additional prorated amount.
    The amount based on the year half on august through escrow for the seller gets reimbursed the date that percentage of time of the year was 3000 you owe and you owe and the total tax payment of time of the total tax proration calculation the current year by simply calculating the total tax payment should be if there is.
