Hi Bernardo,
Welcome to our community forums.

yes, I think you need to take your wife's consent before applying for deed-in-lieu which is all about handling over your property to the lender. So, if your spouse is on the title, I think taking her consent is important.

Ideally, lenders won't agree for a workout plan until you're behind on loan for 2-3 months. But you can still try and negotiate for a workout plan such as deed-in-lieu.
By the way, if your wife is not willing to sell the house, you can consider filing a Partition Lawsuit if it's applicable in your state. But even if you do so, the sale proceeds should be used to pay off the mortgage. You need to contact an attorney to help you with the legal formalities.
