No, the owner is identified by recorded warranty deed. There are all type of rental agreements, if you agreed to pay the property taxes, it's just a part of your rent. Net leases, net/net, or triple net are good leases to get if you are the property owner. Now, if the taxes are unpaid and on April 15, you go pay them through a tax certificate sale, after two years, you are eligible to take it 'to the courthouse steps' where you can bid against others for rights to the property. Oftentimes though, all you get is your money back with the 5%+ interest. In order to get the certificate, you have to bid what interest you want on your money, in my county, the minimum is 5%. So, if you really want the property and don't mind waiting, you can bid 0% because you are guaranteed 5%. It varies from county to county and state to state, but you can check it out with your county tax collector. Although if you are a tenant and just pay the property taxes, this does not constitute ownership.

Is it illegal to quick claim deed to someone other than family?

To start with, it is a "quit" claim deed. And basically you are relinquishing your share of the property to someone else. This usually happens when there are two names on the deed and one wants out of ownership. They usually quit claim deed their share to the other person on the deed. Family has nothing to do with it. The only thing that MIGHT affect this transfer is if it was agreed upon prior to taking ownership of the property that it can only be transferred to someone within the family. Rare, but who knows, this stipulation might exist. In most states one tenant by the entirety cannot transfer their interest in the property.
