Not at all. There are times when there is a gap between known taxes & the need to estimate. If the estimate made & there was a large increase or decrease.......an estimate error could happen. Estimates are disclosed and both parties sign off. Closing companies CYOA.


Like other posters have mentioned............escrow. Both parties signed off on not using an escrow. Whoops.
