You would likely need to get a license to sell the condo from the probate court involved. It is easiest to get this allowed without an adversarial hearing if you have the assents of all the heirs.
Please let me know if I can assist you with this - ,

I'm sorry to hear about your loss.
The property can be sold in probate, as attorney Harvey has suggested. My advice would be to retain an attorney to assist you in this process to protect yourself from liability and the potential claims of other heirs.
