Property (real estate) taxes paid

When you enter 1098 information, there is

Box 1 - Mortgage interest

Box 2 - Outstanding mortgage principal

Box 3 - Mortgage origination date

Box 5 - Mortgage insurance premiums

Property (real estate) taxes paid.  For this one, are you supposed to fill out what you paid for the property taxes only if impounded taxes or what you paid for property taxes in general?  Because there is a section after this that asks for "property taxes".
