Wills say it all, and that's why people should have one (even people in their 20s if they have personal posessions or property.) If this person in Virginia has left a Will, then the only way step-children would get any portion of the Estate is if that deceased has provided this in his/her Will. As step-children, and if you feel it's unfair then you can "contest this Will." If the person died intestate, a stepchild will be considered an heir by operation of law only if the stepchild was legally adopted by the deceased party. Otherwise the will determines who the heirs are.
When a person dies and has no heirs or next of kin their property "escheats" to the state.
The heirs must discuss that with the lender.
It will come from the deceased person's estate.
That will depend on the will of the person in question. If they don't have a will, it will depend on the intestacy laws for the appropriate jurisdiction.

No. Debts of one person are never inherited by heirs or beneficiaries under a will
Attend the funeral and then assist the heirs in cleaning out the house so that it can be rented to the next tenant.
The inheritance of any deceased person is divided amoongst the remaining heirs.
When a person dies intestate (without a will) and they have no spouse or children, their parents are generally the legal heirs at law. If they left a spouse or children, the parents are generally not heirs. You can check your state laws at the related question link below.
Anyone with an interest in the estate, heirs and those that are debtors of the estate can apply to open an estate.
