Are my escrow payments too high?

Is it common for escrow payments to double since March of 2021? From $741 I am now paying $1,500. Increases are normal but isn't this too much? I asked my lender and they said that it might be due to property taxes. They told me to talk with the Tax Collectors' Office. I am quite new to this and your replies are greatly appreciated. by jimbarret138 from Twin Peaks, Colorado. Jan 9th 2023 Reply
