If I paid property taxes on a home I didn't own can I deduct it?

My mother passed away and I am paying her mortgage and property tax. I haven't gone to probate yet but I have proof that I'm paying for everything.

No, you can't deduct Property Tax for property you don't own. Check with your attorney if filing an estate tax.
