I Invested Personal Funds Into Upgrades/repairs On My Ex-fiancé’s House.

Location: Virginia. Thanks in advance for any advice. I’ve gotten myself into a mess. I moved last year to join my fiancé whom I thought would be retiring from the military. He was stationed abroad when I got here (I relocated before he was back for a job opportunity). Anyway, his house had been essentially sitting vacant for 2 years while he was overseas. I started making repairs and upgrades with the expectation that we would eventually sell this house and use the equity to purchase acreage later in life. I don’t have any formal contracts, just personal messages that can confirm these plans. The problem is that he’s a monster, currently sitting in jail awaiting sentencing, and the government is going to try to seize the house. I’ve accepted that I messed up big time by putting my funds into his house. I guess I’ve even accepted that I may never get my money back. Do I have any course of action to take here? Can I file a lien on the property for expenses? Namely plumbing, a/c repairs, privacy fence, and removal of dead trees? I have receipts for everything as well.
