New York's Cooperative and Condominium Community
Why don’t you reach out to your co-op attorney or accountant? They would know what they’re seeing in other co-op’s and give suggestions on the size of your co-op.
Why can’t you do a part time super since it’s a small co-op? Do you really need a full time super?
Also what about benefits? I’m assuming you’d need to pay for that too or would it just be for a full time or part time depending on the hours. Would your co-op need to have a union super?
Larger co-ops will have a super full time, probably a union super, they might live in the building in a unit that is owned by the co-op, they pay for benefits, OT, maybe pension, also cell phone, utilities for the unit.
Maybe it doesn’t have to be a super but a porter.
I would speak to the co-op attorney…labor rules etc too.
