That depends on how the property was titled. If your father transferred the property to himself and his wife as joint tenants with the right of survivorship and he died then she would have become the sole owner. Upon her death her children will inherit the property unless she executes a will leaving a portion to you.

It all depends on how they took title to the property. You should consult with an attorney who can examine the title and determine the status of the ownership. Perhaps you could negotiate to purchase your step-father's interest if is the owner. Since he walked away, perhaps he didn't own the property and it belonged to your mother alone. An attorney could figure it out and explain your options.

Do children have rights to mother's equity after she dies and there is no will?

If mom and daughter are joint tenants of a home and mother dies is daughter liable for mother's credit card debt Can creditors attach liens on home even though daughter has right of survivorship?

I'm not an attorney, and you certainly need the help of an attorney. But joint tenants have equal and undivided rights in the property they own. It doesn't seem unreasonable that creditors will want something from the mother's property.
