Our house burned in March 2014 and was a complete loss and torn down. Can the county charge us for the full year of taxes?
Harris county in TX wants the full year of taxes as if the house was still there.

I tagged your question under Real Estate, you're more likely to get helpful answers from those folks than you are with the question under personal injury.
I have to imagine hcad.org has information about how taxes are calculated.

File a tax protest with the county. There are non-lawyer companies that can help you, if you need assistance.

You should hire a property tax advocate. Bettencourt Tax is a great one. The man was the County tax man.
