Does a T1255 need to filed when the property is JTWROS and there is a surviving spouse taking over the property? If so then what value do I put for the amount of deemed disposition if they do not have an official estimate of the fair market value?

The rollover to the spouse from a deceased taxpayer takes place at the adjusted cost basis, not fair market value.  A T1255 is not required.
