Your mother gave you and your sister a 'gift' of her condo, so she would report this on her tax return (if she is required to file).

You and your sister can claim the Property Tax and Mortgage Interest on your returns (since you are on the Deed), split however you agree between you.

When you Sell the Property, you and your sister will each report your share of the sale proceeds on your individual returns as a 'Sale of Investment Property'.

Here's more info on that:
