This would really depend on who was on title. If your ex-common law is not on title she would not get any money from the sale.

Now just to clarify, the only way any money would come out of the bankruptcy is if the property in question is sold, and the proceeds are sufficient to pay the administration costs and all the creditors claims plus 5% interest. Then if anything is left over it would be returned to you.
