Yes, you can give your property away owning taxes, unless there is a lien or other legal document held by the IRS or taxing authority that prohibits you from doing so. Examples of such restrictions against giving the property away might be where your personal income taxes are delinquent or your property taxes are delinquent and the property is collateral guaranteeing payment of the debt.

If the property is free of delinquencies, the person accepting the property is doing so subject to the outlying property taxes. For example, if you gave real estate to a person they probably need to pay the real estate taxes before they could purchase title insurance or mortgage the property.

If a property was given to someone and the previous owner has life use who pays the taxes?

Typically, the person who has ownership of the property is responsible for paying the taxes. In this case, if the property was given to someone and the previous owner has a life use, the new owner would generally be responsible for paying the taxes on the property. However, it is always recommended to consult with a legal professional or tax advisor for specific situations and jurisdictions.
