That is the normal distribution. If there are others on the deed that may affect things. And a spouse normally has a right to the property for at least a life estate.

No, New Jersey is not a community property state. It does however recognize Tenancy By The Entirety when it pertains to real property. Therefore the family home will pass directly to the surviving spouse and not be subject to probate unless the titling to the property is otherwise worded.
Depends on the will
Yes, however, the answer depends on specific situations associated with the partnership/marriage and the state in which they live in. If the state is a communal property state and the surviving spouse that is not a borrower had ANY benefit from the loan, that spouse owes the money as a borrower (despite not being a borrowing party on the loan). In this case, if the surviving spouse is not in a position to pay for the loan, a negotiation would be warranted soon after the (within a month or two of) deceased spouses death. If the state is a non-communal property state, the estate of the deceased spouse will first be looked to in order to provide the funds to pay off all debts. If there are enough assets to cover the debt, the loan will be paid in full, regardless of the surviving spouse's wishes as the lender's rights come before those that may be beneficiaries to any estate proceeds. If there are not enough assets to cover the loan, the lender may look to liquidate the asset (the surviving spouse's home) in order to satisfy the debt. If the home is NOT in the surviving spouse's name (either through joint tennancy or named ownership), the surviving spouse may not be able to intervene.
if the wife owned a home prior to marriage and the spouse signed non vested spouse. does the home still belong only to the wife.
The estate of the deceased is responsible for the debts. The spouse is going to have to pay the debt as a beneficiary of the home purchased by the spouse.
If your grandmother died and devised her home to her heirs then you may be entitled to inherit your father's share, whatever that may be, according to the intestate succession laws in your grandmother's state. If he had a spouse she may also receive a portion. If he had no spouse his children would share equally. However, the wording of your grandmother's will may direct who will inherit the share of a deceased child. Property may be devised to a person's children with the share of any deceased child to pass to his own sisters and brothers. Or, property may be devised to a person's children with the share of any deceased child to go to the deceased child's children (grandchildren). You need to check the wording of the will and you may need to check the laws in the state where your grandmother's will is probated.
No, Indiana is not a community property state. Indiana is a Tenancy By The Entirety state which means jointly owned marital property passes directly to the surviving spouse and is not subject to probate procedure not creditor attachment when the deceased spouse was the sole debtor.

Yes, if the spouse is living in the home or benefited from the utility use. The assets of the estate have to be used to clear all debts before anything can be distributed. That includes utility bills and credit card debts.
Typically, the surviving spouse who is living in the home under a probate homestead must maintain the home and pay interest on any mortgage debt. The heirs are liable for reductions in principal. The surviving spouse is not required to insure the home, but if she does, she is entitled to the proceeds for any claim.
Tennessee is not a community property state, if the surviving spouse was not a joint debtor he or she is not responsible for debt incurred by the decedent. The exeption would be, if there is a home that is encumbered by a mortgage and/or loan the surviving spouse will have to continue the agreement whether he or she was named on the lending contract in order to retain possession of the property.
