Yes because the property becomes yours unless they have already payed for the property in full.
If you just inherited a bag full of money, no. If you inherited a tax deferred account like an IRA, 401k, or pension, you may have to pay tax when you take the money out. If you inherited property such as a house or stocks, you may have to pay taxes on the growth in value between the date of death and the date you sold the property. If you inherit US Savings Bonds, you may have to pay tax on the interest when you cash them in, including interest earned during the life of the deceased if the deceased was not declaring the interest annually on his or her taxes.

Yes, you will have to pay estate taxes on inherited property. In the United States an estate taxes is always imposed on the transfer of the "taxable estate" of a deceased person.

Once they have inherited the property, yes. Until then the estate is responsible.
That depends on a couple things: what taxes do you mean? estate or property taxes? Most states have property taxes, which must be paid regardless of the status of the owner. In 2010, the estate tax was repealed. So, no taxes should be due on the home to transfer it to your mother's heir(s). IRAs in an estate would be handled differently, since the income is tax deferred. Complicating things slightly: if you inherited the house but didn't sell it immediately, you would have to pay a capital gains tax on the increase in the value of the house. Your "basis" in the house would be its value at the time you inherited it; you subtract that from what you sold it for, and pay tax on the difference. If you inherited it 15 years ago, that could be substantial.
After a house fire, property taxes may be adjusted based on the extent of the damage to the property. In some cases, property taxes may be reduced if the value of the property has decreased significantly due to the fire. It is important to contact the local tax assessor's office to discuss any potential changes to property taxes after a house fire.

Property taxes do not override the deed to a house, but they can create a lien against the property. If property taxes remain unpaid, the government may have the right to foreclose on the property, potentially leading to its sale to recover the owed taxes. Therefore, while the ownership deed remains valid, failure to pay property taxes can result in significant consequences for the property owner.
When purchasing a house, you may need to pay property taxes, transfer taxes, and possibly capital gains taxes if you sell the house for a profit.

A house appraisal can affect taxes by influencing the assessed value of the property. If the appraisal shows a higher value than before, property taxes may increase. Conversely, a lower appraisal value could lead to a decrease in property taxes.
If money (i.e.; mortgage/mechanics lien/taxes/etc) are owed on the property it makes no difference whether it is inherited or not. It would have been inherited SUBJECT TO the liens and encumbrances.
