Buying a condo this year

Is it absurd to think about buying a condo at some point this year? I know new laws passed that require condominiums to undergo inspections if over 30 years old in addition to other requirements which may cause large assessment fees. Could I avoid that just by looking for newer condos, or is the assessment cost transparent when shopping around?

If it matters, I’m looking around downtown St. Pete, Safety Harbor, or Dunedin.
