Situation:  Last year I moved my elderly Mother  to VA to live near me in a Nursing Home as  she is recovers from a broken hip.   She suffers from Parkinson's disease and her mental acuity continues to decline.  She owns a house in GA; she owns this house free and clear of any liens.   Her name along with my late father are on the house deed.   I have a general power of attorney from her. 
 
Question: I want to add my name to the deed, as a joint owner... so the house does not need to pass through Probate upon her death. How do I do this?
