Yes. However, be aware that the children can petition for the sale of the house and put the spouse/partner out on the street unless you have a provision in your will that the house cannot be sold until the spouse/partner is ready to do so. (This happened to my grandpa)

It depends on if there is any wording in the contract between the joint owners about rights of survivorship. If there is no language that imparts your ownership to the surviving partner or gives him/her the right to purchase said ownership at a specified price/market price then you may pass your ownership on to anyone you wish at your death (or any other time- it is, after all, yours to do with as you please).

Yes. Set up a living trust or you can add your children to the title.
