Commercial loans on small deals generally don't escrow, with 20/25+% down they simply check taxes and ask for proof of insurance, escrows cost lenders money. Secondary market loans generally do escrow, that depends on the LTV.

I write checks as thing are due, my money stays with me (not like it's not already spent, LOL) but deposits add up and they earn a bit of interest, better than letting go of the money. Just part of money management.
