super salaryAug 21, 2023

I live in a very small co-op, 11 units. Trying to figure out what the going salary for a super is. Most of the information I'm finding is for large co-ops where the super is in a more managerial role and is salaried starting at $40k. Maybe this was in the past but the impression I had was some small buildings would provide a free apartment/utilities, and pay a small monthly fee, and the super would have a day job, I don't know if that's legal.

Anyone know what the best practice is here?

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.
