What if my parent's own the house, but I assisted with paying the property taxes? Is there a way for me to file that on my taxes?

Unless your name is on the deed or the mortgage, no, you cannot enter anything about the property taxes on your own tax return.

without ownership you made a gift to your parents, which would require you to file a gift tax return if it was over $19,000
