Question

If we had a rental house in another state but spent more on property tax, upgrades, etc., than we actually took in - do we need to file taxes with that state?

You don't mention the state but it is important to file even though you have losses. Those losses get carried forward to future years that you have a profit, or later when you decide to sell.

Good call-out. The state is MI

I'm not specifically familiar with MI. but a cursory reading of the following seems to say you don't need to file.

It depends on the state. Some have a gross income (rents received) filing requirement.
