That will depend on how the property was owned. If it was Joint Tenants (with right of survivorship, no) or Tenants in Common (if he wants to keep the property, yes).

No. In the US, only a few states continue to recognize common law marriage. In those states, the period of co-habitation is normally about 7 years.
