Don't confuse real estate tax (commonly called "property tax") with personal property tax.
Personal property tax is imposed on movable things (such as mobile homes, RVs, or vehicles) whereas real estate "property" tax is imposed on immovable assets such as houses and land. Real estate tax is entered in a different place in the program.
