You would have a Grant Deed prepared that reads something like:
"John Smith and Jane Smith, husband and wife as joint tenants"
(transfer ownership to)
"John Smith, a married (or single) man"
These can be self-prepared using forms available online, or you can have a title company or legal service prepare it for you and insure the correctness of the transfer. The document is then recorded with the county clerk after it has been signed by both parties and notarized.
Be aware that this action may violate the terms of any mortgage on the home unless written permission for the transfer is obtained from the lender in advance.

How do you take your ex spouse off title insurance?
An Owner's Policy only covers the actual owner of the property. When the property is awarded to a party in divorce proceedings, that person remains "in title" (still on the deed) and the original Owner's Policy is still in effect covering that person since they were on the original deed as well when the property was obtained.The non-titled (person who was not awarded a continuing interest in the property by the divorce decree) automatically falls off the title policy since their interest is transferred off by the divorce proceedings and they no longer own the property.If you are looking to take the ex-spouse off an existing deed as the result of divorce proceedings, contact your real estate attorney and s/he can prepare the proper deed vesting the interest solely into the awarded spouse with the proper legal language referencing the divorce decree.

How do you remove a dead spouse's name from a house deed in the state of New jersey?
If the property is owned by two as husband and wife (tenants by the entirety), there is no need to change the deed to reflect the fact that only the survivor owns the property. Common practice in NJ is to do nothing in the way of changing the deed. However; if for some reason the surviving spouse still wants the decedent's name off the deed, he/she would sign a new deed by herself as the sole surviving owner conveying the property to herself as sole owner. At that point only the survivor's name is on the deed. Names are never "taken off deeds" to reflect that a former joint owner is no longer an owner. A new deed is created to do this.
