According to IRS Pub 527 - Vacant Property, if you hold property for rental purposes, you may be able to deduct your ordinary and necessary expenses (including depreciation) for managing, conserving, or maintaining the property while the property is vacant.
This would include property taxes, which are necessary to maintain ownership of the property.
