Thanks for the reply.  I hope I am using the terminology correct:  gifted.  The property was give to us by our father prior to his passing--i.e. it did not pass to us via his estate.  Thus, we assumed his original basis / purchase price, of say, 50k.

 

Since then, I have used 50K as the cost basis for depreciation during the last 10 years acting as 100% owner.  My sister has not one mention of this property in her taxes.
