As a joint owner, only her share would receive a step-up, and you'd still owe capital gains tax on your portion based on the original purchase price. 

I'm not handcuffed to only the DFW area, growing up in the Raleigh/Durham metro, I would gladly entertain investment opportunities in Central NC as well.Thanks,Evan

There is a lot to investing and even more so when buying using creative finance.
