One doesn't "file property taxes." One of the important duties of the local tax assessor or tax collector is to maintain an inventory of real property ownership. They accomplish this by visiting the register of deeds office (physically or virtually online) to discover deeds and other transfer documents that have been filed related to real estate. So if your name is on the deed to real estate and it was properly recorded the local assessor or tax collector already has this information and will automatically send you a real estate tax bill. Call your local assessor or tax collector if you have any questions that were not answered here.
