How do I go about changing the name on a property deed?

It depends on why you are changing the name. Since you posted in the estate planning law area, I will assume the original grantee on the deed is deceased. In order to have property taken out of a deceased person's name, that person's will must be submitted to probate (if he or she died with a valid will). If that person died intestate (without a will), there are other ways to handle this problem, namely via a small estate administration or an affidavit of heirship. Please make sure to contact an attorney to have a more in-depth discussion of the property deed in question.

A very open ended question.  A very open ended answer is "It depends!" And it does, there are so many things that go into designing and implementing an estate plan that accomplishes your goals based upon your assets, beliefs, wants, etc, that it is impossible to answer without knowing a great deal more. Suggest you engage an estate planning lawyer to assist you.
