The Circuit Court Clerk's Land Records Office (Room 300) handles filing of Homestead Deeds/Exemptions.
General Information
A Homestead Deed prevents creditors from attaching/levying one's personal property and equity in real estate. Normally, such an instrument is filed when an individual is going into bankruptcy or is anticipating a judgment against him/her.
A Homestead Deed must be filed on or before the fifth day after the date of the meeting of creditors, or the exemption will not be allowed by the Bankruptcy Court (Virginia Code § 34-17 and Bankruptcy Code 341). The Homestead exemption is limited to $5,000 in value. Fees
