To add a name to a deed, do all other parties on the deed need to sign and approve or is one owners a signature enough?

All parties to the existing deed would need to sign off on any changes. Otherwise, any new deed filed would be invalid.

Welcome chattymaddy,

You won't have to give a power of attorney to your son. You can draft a will and declare your good son as the beneficiary of your will.

Creating a will, however, isn't going to solve the problem of the three of you being on the current mortgage deed. As it appears to me now, the only way in which to resolve (poor choice of words of course) this matter is to go to court and have things taken care of there. Expect a push-back from the non-good son...what an unfortunate choice of words here.
