That is one of the responsibilities of the Executor. The IRS and state provide the guidelines and forms to be filled out. It is pretty straight forward, and in many cases there are no estate taxes.

Who pays property taxes when buying a home?

Typically the seller will, however in real estate anything is negotiable. The real estate broker or other person responsible for the closing estimates the annual real estate taxes for the subject property being sold. The seller is responsible for the real estate taxes from January 1 through the day before closing. The buyer is responsible for real estate taxes as of the day of closing through the end of the year. Real estate taxes are generally estimated and prorated on a calendar year basis. At closing both the buyer and the seller receive a copy of the settlement sheet that, among other things, shows debts and credits for real estate taxes. If, at the end of the tax year, the estimated taxes were substantially inaccurate, the party that underpaid for their portion of the prorated year can be asked to contribute to the party that overpaid.

Special taxes can indeed be placed on an estate, typically in the form of estate taxes or inheritance taxes, depending on the jurisdiction. These taxes are assessed on the value of the estate after the owner's death and are intended to generate revenue for the government. Additionally, some regions may impose specific taxes on certain assets or transfers within an estate. Therefore, it is not accurate to say that special taxes are never placed on an estate.
