As a cash basis taxpayer (you would know if you weren't), you can only take deductions for real estate taxes in the year you paid them, whether or not that is the year they were originally due. You will have to wait until you file your 2009 return in early 2010 to take the deduction.

Who can you contact for more information on your income tax schedule in 2010?
The best person to contact about the income tax schedule for 2010 is either the borough that you live in, to see what kinds of taxes you will need to pay for your property, or your accountant, who most likely handles most of this anyway. You should probably think about your taxes for 2011 and 2012, though.
You bought a house in 2009 and the property tax was already paid. When will you start to pay property taxes in 2010?
When you begin to pay real estate taxes in 2010 depends on three things: (1) when real estate taxes are levied and payable in your taxing district; (2) how you agreed to prorate real estate taxes in the contract to purchase the property; and (3) whether your lender required you to set up an escrow account that included an amount for real estate taxes. Each state prescribes the effective date for real estate taxes or tax day. Each taxing district within the state must comply with state tax laws concerning tax levies and the billing and collection of taxes, but this may include one tax payment each year or up to four equal installments throughout the year (two is typical). Most standard contracts to purchase require that real estate taxes be prorated on a calendar year basis. A majority of homeowners today have escrow accounts that they pay into each month so that real estate taxes can be paid when they are due.

Is the inheritance tax going to change in 2010?
I assume you mean the estate tax, not the inheritance tax. (There is a federal estate tax, but no federal inheritance tax.) The federal estate tax will be abolished in 2010. And (unless the law is changed) it will be reinstated in 2011 and the exclusion amount will drop from the $3.5 million in 2009 to $1 million in 2011. Note that this does not apply to state estate or inheritance taxes. Because of the craziness on the federal level, many states have been revising their estate taxes to decouple them from federal changes. ***Caution*** Before making any plans to die in 2010 in order to take advantage of the estate tax repeal, be aware that this situation is very fluid and the law could be changed.
Are there any inheritance taxes on property that is given to grandchildren but parents are given life estate by grandparents?
With the exception of people that die in 2010 (because the estate tax is repealed for this one year period), the answer is yes. Estate taxes and the effect of life and remainder estates can be very complicated. There are also generation skipping tax issues. I encourage you to consult a knowledgable professional.
