$4000 is the underpay and $250 a month is the increase. The $600 a month is to pay $350 towards that $4k every month while covering the $250 increase. Having a $4k underpay off a $250 increase would suggest that the increase happened 16 months ago and the escrow company only now caught it.

A $250 a month increase from prop tax and insurance is not at all outside of normal but yet does seem to suprise first time himebuyers. Yes, the cost of your house will go up over time.

350 x 12 is $4200. So you can pay a lump sum or add it to your monthly payment.
