Answer

Yes. In fact, taxes are usually the number one creditor of an estate and take precedence over nearly everything else. In other words, you would have to sell the house and all the other property necessary to pay the taxes before you could even think about who might get anything left over.

No. The owner of the property must pay the delinquent taxes. If the owner has died the estate must be probated in order for the heirs at law to acquire legal title.

I am guessing that your dad's house is in Louisiana. I would suggest that you contact a probate attorney for a full explanation. Usufruct means that your stepmother has the right to use and enjoy the home until she is deceased. However, she cannot sell it. When she dies, you will have full rights to the home.

Do you pay tax on sale of deceased mothers house?

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 In 2010, the estate tax was repealed.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.
