For taxes, better to buy as an American or foreigner

I'm American, my wife is Korean.  We are getting into our first investment here before the end of the year.  I'm curious, purely from a tax standpoint, is there a benefit to putting the property into my name or hers? I know we have other things to think about when it comes to financing terms and setting up the business.  But, just wondering for tax purposes.  Anyone able to help?
