Can my S Corporation pay my property taxes so that it can in turn deduct them on the Federal S Corp return? Would that allow me to deduct real estate taxes that might not otherwise be deducted because of the $10,000 SALT limitation?
I think the answer is NO because the corporation doesn't have an obligation in the first place to pay my property taxes. Other thoughts?

Many other states have a PTE tax, too. But you still can't have the S Corp deduct the shareholder's personal real estate tax.
if you are in NY look at PTET (pass through entity tax) - optional - have to opt in each year. Might be more work than it is worth. www.tax.ny.gov/bus/ptet
