If condo was held as “husband and wife” then you have a “tenancy by the entirety” under ORS 93.180(1)(b). In that case, then I believe you just have to record a death certificate there to effectively transfer title to surviving spouse. Otherwise, ancillary probate will likely be required. As an aside, if her gross estate is over $1 million, then you probably need to file Oregon estate tax return too.
