Real estate taxes are paid to your local county. Income taxes are paid to your state and the federal government.
In your case, the real estate taxes (sometimes referred to as property taxes) have absolutely no relation or connection with your state income taxes.
Real estate taxes are paid to the local county and are a valid expense on the SCH E line 16.
State taxes are "income" taxes collected by the state. Unless you pre-paid money to the state (not the local county) your pre-paid taxes are ZERO.
Property tax - Has absolutely nothing to do with your income. This tax is based on the value of the property as determined and assessed by the local county property appraiser.
Income tax - Has *EVERYTHING* do do with your income and nothing to do with the assessed value of your property.
