Deductions are taken when paid.

All deductions are based on _payments_ made during the tax
year, so your assumption is correct.

Default when to deduct property tax?

In my state we are billed for property tax after the year
has passed. So I assume the deduction is only relevant to
when I pay the bill, not what year the tax bill is for?
