Yes. Nevada is a community property state, and Nevada law allows no dower or curtesy. Neither spouse may encumber community real property unless both spouses sign and acknowledge the deed of trust, and a mortgage on a recorded homestead isn't valid unless both spouses sign it.
Nevada title and escrow companies can't disburse from escrow until deposits covering the disbursements have been received. They can disburse on the same business day only if the money arrived as cash, an immediately available wire transfer, or a cashier's, certified or teller's check, so a borrower's funds to close should arrive as a wire or cashier's check.
