Two years ago my mothers estate was settled. In 2024 I was required to pay an additional tax on her home that was sold. Can I deduct the tax I paid?

No, you would not be able to deduct the taxes if the estate was settled.  The ownership of the house should have passed to the beneficiaries, in which case they would have to pay the tax as owners.
