How is property tax paid with a mortgage?
Most lenders collect it monthly through an escrow account and pay the city when bills come due. New Hampshire's tax year runs April 1 to March 31, and many towns bill twice a year, with the final bill using the new rate set in the fall. If the new rate is higher, your escrow payment may rise at the next yearly review. The tax bills and escrow guide explains how that works.
