Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in Virginia

After my final divorce decree in the property settlement the judge awarded me 60 percent of the home he awarded my spouse 40 percent of the home. My question is my spouse responsible for the morgage payment on their 40 percent of the home and the taxes and insurance. And are there any codes in the Virginia law that shows this.
