Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Virginia

If this property is still subject to a mortgage, you will likely need to refinance it

in your name only and if she's on the deed, then at the very least the two of you will likely need to jointly execute quitclaim deeds valid in the Commonwealth for conveying your respective jointly held interests to you only which then must

be properly recorded in the land records of the circuit court where the property is located.

You would be well advised to engage the services of a Virginia attorney

who handles real property law matters to handle this particular matter for you.
