Where do I enter these taxes?  I pay over $3000 in property taxes on a beach house.  I do not rent out this home, nor do I use it for work.

Federal schedule A. but if your taxes are already $10,000 or more the additional taxes will produce no Federal tax benefit. maybe for state income tax purposes.
