You can't remove them from the deed. They own an interest in the property and if you die they will own 100% automatically. You cannot sell or mortgage without their signature.

A right of survivorship must be set forth in the deed by which you acquired your property. If the deed doesn't state you received the property as "joint tenants", or as "joint tenants with the right of survivorship" which is required in some jurisdictions, then you own as tenants in common and have no survivorship rights. If you review your deed and the answer isn't clear you should consult with the attorney who represented you at your closing who can draft a confirmatory deed with survivorship rights if necessary.
No, the right of survivorship typically applies to property held in joint tenancy or tenancy by the entirety, and it allows the interest of a deceased co-owner to automatically pass to the surviving co-owner(s). Without a will, the deceased co-owner's interest would generally be subject to the laws of intestate succession, which determine how the property will be distributed among the heirs.
Generally, and in Florida, a tenancy by the entirety is a special joint tenancy reserved for legally married people. They own the property with the unseverable common law right of survivorship. If one dies, the other automatically owns the property. With a general joint tenancy with the right of survivorship the tenancy can be broken by one of the parties and it will transform into a tenancy in common. The right of survivorship within a tenancy by the entirety cannot be severed by one of the parties. One may not sue the other to Partition the property. A creditor of one may not claim the property or the proceeds of sale. In Florida, the signature of both spouses is needed to sell the property and one cannot sell their interest alone. Both are required to sign a mortgage or any other type of contract.
The way the property is titled determines who takes ownership. If the property is titled as Joint Tenants or Joint Tenants With Right of Survivorship, the surviving person(s) named on the deed receive the entire property and it is not subject to probate distribution. If the property is titled as Tenants-In-Common, it is subject to probate distribution as required under the laws of the state in which the property is located.
No. The property cannot be sold without your signature unless it is still in the estate and the executor still has authority over it. An executor can sell the real estate if there was power granted in the will or if they request a license to sell real estate from the court. Once the estate has been settled, your signature is required to sell your interest in the property.

In Colorado, the spouse who received the property through a quitclaim deed can generally sell the property without the other spouse's permission if they hold the title solely in their name.
