I'm in @Jason Chen 's camp. He's giving you a solid advice, albeit not very PC (at all). If you proceed with your plan, there is a very good chance she will end up resenting you for it and this will only deteriorate your relationship further. Unless she just has an epiphany one day and "gets it". You're in a tough spot, and unless you guys can communicate properly, this will most likely not work. You've already mentioned several other things you don't see eye-to-eye on: student loans, superficial (expensive) things she desires in a house, and just general business acumen is a polar opposite. I bet she sees no problem spending hundreds of dollars on hair products a month, tho? (this is a stereotypical assumption meant only as a joke)
"Happy wife, happy life" is not only a cliche, it should no longer work these days. What's with men being so gladly subordinate to women? Ain't it a solid 50/50 these days? C'mon, guys, take your basketballs out of that purse and run some hoops on your own.
I so wish there was a love button to push for this comment!

This is a relationship issue, not a real estate issue. If your partner's goals and expectations are not aligned with your's then they become a liability to your success. Dont expect a dog to fly and a bird to bark. select a partner in business or life for their core nature. You cant change the core.

paying a real estate appraiser and an attorney to close the deal is probably cheaper.

Sounds like there is far more owed than it is worth. Basically the heirs have nothing.

If you are holding someone's money as a qualified intermediary, you need to be available 24/7. When someone entrusts you to their money, you need to go to extreme measures to insure their trust. Communication is the best way to do this.

It's called a tape measure.

if a property can't cash flow and you are buying it on anticipation of increasing value, you might as well buy stocks or lottery tickets.
