All communists recognize personal property. Remember, communism is about communal ownership of the _means of production_, which is what 'private property' refers to. Nobody wants to share your toothbrush.

In some Communist states you didn't own your home or even your car.

To be fair, many Communists don't consider those states real communism. This is analogous to Libertarians rejecting state-run crony capitalism.
