Two mortgages and reporting of non-escrowed property and school taxes

[sfalk1984]

I owned a home in NY for the entire 2021 year and was paying my property and school taxes directly to the county and school district.  These bills were not escrowed into our mortgage as we chose not to when we purchased the home in 2015.  In May 2021 we purchased a vacant property in OH so that we could start building a new home in 2022.  Where would I report the NY taxes since these would not have been escrowed into our NY mortgage?

Real estate taxes (also called property taxes) for your main home, vacation home, or land are an allowable deduction if they're based on the assessed value of the property and the property is for your own personal use.

Don't include school taxes, unless they're based on the assessed value of your property.
