Property taxes are the responsibility of the owner. The owner may make arrangements to have someone else pay instead, but ultimately if the taxes are not paid it will be the owner who suffers when the property is sold at auction.
All the owners of the property are responsible for paying the property taxes.If the taxes are not paid and become delinquent it will affect your credit records. Also, if the taxes are not paid, the town can take possession of the property and sell it. Therefore, it is extremely important you keep the property tax payments current.If one sibling is living in the house rent free perhaps a written agreement could be made addressing her financial obligations regarding the house. There will be costs for utilities, upkeep and maintenance, repairs, taxes, etc. You must decide who will be responsible for maintaining the property in good condition. If she is living rent free, perhaps she could pay for the utility charges and a larger share of the taxes, if possible. The others should help with the maintenance and repair costs and make a contribution toward the taxes. When the property is sold the siblings will share equally in the proceeds.In this perspective, the sibling who lives in the house should pay her own living expenses but all the owners should share the tax bill and expense of keeping the property in good condition.
So you had an agreement with the owner then failed to make payments and now want to try to get something for nothing. No you cannot not. An agreement does not have to be written to be valid.
Generally not, except for Federal debts (Federal taxes) and child support or alimony. Generally, Social Security benefits are exempt from execution, levy, attachment, garnishment, or other legal process, or from the operation of any bankruptcy or insolvency law. The exceptions are that benefits are subject: (1) to the authority of the Secretary of the Treasury to make levies for the collection of delinquent Federal taxes and under certain circumstances delinquent child support payments; and (2) to garnishment or similar legal process brought by an individual to enforce a child support or alimony obligation. Section 207 of the Social Security Act provides: "The right of any person to any future payment under this title shall not be transferable or assignable, at law or in equity, and none of the moneys paid or payable or rights existing under this title shall be subject to execution, levy, attachment, garnishment, or other legal process, or to the operation of any bankruptcy or insolvency law." However, section 6331 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 (26 U.S.C. 6331) which was enacted into law on August 16, 1954, after the enactment of section 207, gives the Secretary of the Treasury the right to levy or seize for collection of delinquent Federal taxes, property, rights to property, whether real or personal, tangible, or intangible and the right to make successive levies and seizures until the amount due, together with all expenses, is fully paid.
If there is no property damage, there's no accident. The question doesn't make sense.
You should seek to make that arrangement with the Town. However, if the situation has progressed to a court action then it is unlikely that you will be given any "time" to catch up. You would need to pay the delinquent taxes, added costs and interest in full in order to redeem the title to the property.
No, paying property taxes on a property does not make you the property owner. Only a properly executed deed naming you as the owner would make you an owner.

The teacher spoke to the delinquent student about his missing assignments.
In Massachusetts, as in many states, the recorder in the land records has no interest in whether property taxes are owed. Their only obligation is to take the deed in and make it part of the public record informing the world that the property has a new owner.Before a buyer records a deed, their attorney should have the title examined for any outstanding liens and obtain a certificate of municipal liens from the town that lists any municipal assessments that are due. The property taxes are apportioned so that the seller pays the taxes until the transfer is made.A check for any delinquent taxes is very important. A town has a statutory period of around three years to reach out and take property for non-payment of taxes after it has been sold to a new owner. That means that you could "own" your home for three years thinking everything is fine. The town could send you a notice that the property has been taken for non-payment of taxes by the former owner. The amount due would be increased by interest, costs and late charges. You would have no choice but to pay the bill in order to redeem your property.So make sure there are no back taxes due before the closing.
For example: When looking at the daily property sales on Franklin county, Ohio auditor's website there are properties sold for much much less than their market value. The sale price is so low that I figure it has to be a result of the current owner's inability to pay the delinquent taxes. So does the new purchaser contact the current delinquent owner and offer to buy the house for the amount owed plus extra to make the offer more enticing? I feel like this is one of the big hurdles to becoming a more savvy investor. Please help!!
Sounds like the property is his. Either you pay the taxes and continue to live there or whatever or you let him not pay the taxes and "he" loses the property.
Having 501c status is relevant to income taxes. It may, or may not make th real property owned non taxed. That depends on each little taxing jurisdcition.As long as your Property is listed as taxable, it is (or was) and the church owes the tax...or the community it is in should/will/can/must seize the property and sell it for back taxes just like any other.
Yes. But only if you make prior arrangements with the IRS. However, you still will be penalized monthly for delinquent payment, based on the balance owed, until the taxable debt has been paid in full.
