Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Georgia
Adding wife to property deed
If I add my new wife to my existing home property deed, how do I ensure that my two children will receive the financial benefits that I want them to have upon my death and the sale of the house. Their mother is deceased and they are both minor children at present.

Your best approach is not simply add your wife to the deed. That is too simplistic. You need to develope an estate plan which provides for both your new wife and your minor children - and leave the title to the property alone for now.

Go to a local estate lawyer and draw up a valid Last Will and Testament (including a plan, if you have at or in excess of about 2.5MM in assets) that reflects your wishes.
