The only thing you can try to lower your property taxes is have the city reassess your property’s value.
Property tax is based on the price you paid for the house, however, if values in your area have gone down, you can ask the city to reassess the value of your home. If their assessment comes out lower than what it was before, they’ll use the new value.

Property taxes are generally based on the assessed value of the property, whether you insure it or not.
(They’re generally not based on the purchase price of the home, though the assessed value is supposed to be pretty close.)
