Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Real estate taxes paid on a vacation home, as long as it is not a rental property are reported on Sch A, along with the real estate taxes of your principal residence.

 

There is a limitation  of $10,000 on Sch A for the taxes section ($5,000 for MFS).  If the real estate taxes on the vacation home are included after there is already $10,000 of taxes to deduct, then it will not make a difference and they are not able to be carried over to next year.
