2017 Property Tax actually paid in 2018 - deduction?

robinyrhea · ‎June 6, 2019

I technically have until 1/5/18 to pay my 2017 property tax. I won't have the funds until a day or two before then. No funds in 2017 to make the payment. Will I be able to deduct the payment on my 2017 taxes even though I will technically make the payment and it will clear my bank in 2018?

No. If you do not pay it in 2017 it cannot be entered on your 2017 tax return.
