That's what well-managed condos do, do preventative maintenance, properly manage the reserve fund, increase fees in increments when necessary, etc.

One thing I tried to avoid when looking at condos were the shorter, cheaper developments made of oriented strand board/plywood. They seem to have more problems with rot or structural problems over time than a concrete high-rise but that may be a generalization that is inaccurate.
