Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Washington

My mother owns a life tenancy on a tri-plex unit in a retirement community in WA. When she dies, the life tenancy will be re-sold and her heirs will receive 20% of the proceeds from the sale. Is there a way to put a TOD on the proceeds of that sale to avoid probate?
