Investors & landlords

It was agreed between us that I would take all of the depreciation for the rental portion.

I seriously doubt the IRS will agree with this. All of you have a major tax issue here. All of you need to seek professional help yesterday, if not sooner. Expect fines and penalties to be imposed. A tax professional can help keep those costs to a minimum. So a tax pro will be well worth the cost.
