You probably mean the Sales Tax you paid. It is not like the GST or VAT in Canada....this is an entirely different system. It is a tax on the entire sales price, administered at a local level. Not a National tax on basically on the value added by that part of the distribution system. It is applicable to any purchase, by anyone (unless perhaps you were charged it on a large item that you were buying with the first use going to be outside the US, for export - and even then just picking it up in the US is frequently considered first use). In that case you should speak with the one who collected it and they should provide the documents you need to prove it is for export and give a refund. Otherwise, it would not be refundable.

Who is responsible for back taxes on a quitclaim deed?

It is the responsibility of the land owner to pay the property taxes. If a land owner is selling property for which back taxes are owed the payment of the taxes can be part of the negotiations for the sale of the land. However, the issue must be addressed prior to the sale.It is up to the purchaser of property to make certain the property taxes have been paid by the seller at the time of the purchase. If the buyer doesn't demand proof the taxes have been paid BEFORE the sale, the land will be acquired SUBJECT TO any back taxes owed. If land is purchased for which back taxes are owed the new owner will be responsible for paying the back taxes or the town will take possession of the property.The purchase of real property should always be supervised by an attorney. One of the first items on the land purchase check list is to obtain a certificate from the town that states the taxes are paid.
