That depends on the land itself. Every piece of land has a different value in terms of dollars. Where the land is, what its near, how big it is etc... the land will have to bbe apraised by someone professional. At the time of death, have its value assessed professionally. Then, assuming the property is held JTWROS (joint tenancy with right of survivorship - default for owning property jointly with a spouse) the spouse receives the property outright, with half of the property receiving an increase in cost basis equal to 1/2 of the estimated value, and the other half having the original adjusted cost basis. If that confuses you, contact a good estate tax accountant.

If husband dies and he owes for land if the will states wife gets everything does she get land that is still owed for?

of course she does __________________ I think debts are settled before anything is distributed to heirs. I'm sure that if there is a structured loan covering a property the heir has a chance to take the loan over rather than selling the property, presuming the heir qualifies. But the debt doesn't vanish just because a person dies.
