I am on the mortgage and deed to a house with 2 other people. Their names are on the 1098 but not mine. Can I still claim my portion of the property taxes paid?

Yes, you can still claim your share of the mortgage interest as long as you are liable for it (which you said you are on the deed) and you actually paid it.

Keep good detailed records and a copy of the 1098 for your tax file should this be questioned later.

It is common for a 1098 not to list all the people on it, and many times only list the first one.

Same with property taxes (your question).  As long as you actually contributed to the payment.
