That's pretty much unique to homes (well, real estate in general), and that's because there's pretty much no way to own the land your house is on, at least in the US (maybe there's some really rural parts where it's possible, not sure).

Can't really think of anything else I own that has anything equivalent to a property tax.

Where I live I do have excise tax on my car but that’s pretty small potatoes—maybe a couple hundred dollars a year. Also registration, inspection.
