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?

The person whose name is on the title of a property is billed for the taxes. If another party was given use of the property for life, there may or may not have been an agreement as to who paid those taxes. A review of that agreement is in order to see if there were any tax or upkeep obligations passed on to the party given use of the property. Are there?The use of the term "previous owner" seems out of place here. Someone with "life use" doesn't own a property, and they can't "give it away" or "pass it on" because it does not belong to them. They, and they alone, had the use of the place and had an agreement as to the terms and conditions.The owner of the property (and again, that's the person whose name is on the title) is the individual who will be sought to pay the taxes by the taxing authority. The county or whoever isn't interested in any of that "background" stuff, even though it may profoundly affect you and others. They (the taxing authority) bills the "registered owner" of the property for property and other taxes of ownership.
