[WSBAPT] Real Property - No probate - over 15 years later!

Hello,
PC is the parent of an adult child that died back in 2003. The child owned a
condominium at the time of death. PC apparently talked to a now retired
attorney about starting probate but never actually filed anything because PC
was overwhelmed with grief.
Decedent child had no will and had advised the parent that a brother should
inherit the condo. Decedent did not have a spouse or any children. PC
apparently paid off all creditor claims from insurance proceeds. The
surviving brother has been in possession of the condo and paid all
fees/costs related to the condo.
PC wants to know if legal title for the condo can be transferred to the
surviving brother outside of opening probate for the sole purpose of
transferring ownership of the condo.
Anyone aware of any options for dealing with something like this 15 years
later? (I checked the assessor's office and the decedent is still listed as
the legal owner)
Thanks!
Sincerely,
G. (Gus) Benjamin Lindsey III
