If it is Homestead Property, yes. You will need consent whether she is on deed &/or mortgage or not.
Yes, assuming it is homestead, also the court always enters an order not to dissipate or dispose of any assets.
Use of a lawyer is recommended.

If you are married and you have claimed Homestead Exemption on your property taxes you cannot transfer a clear title without her signature. Trying to do so may be a crime. Talk to experienced attorney before trying to transfer the property.
