Re: Can you write off property taxes
yes if you itemize your deductions, not take the standard deduction

Re: Can you write off property taxes
absolutely, its part of your itemized deductions... and your mortgage interest. those 2 items alone should qualify you to itemize your deductions rather than take the standard deduction!

Re: Can you write off property taxes
Also, make sure you include any taxes that were paid to the seller at closing. You can find them on the HUD-1 form that you should have gotten.
