Package offer for new superJul 17, 2018

Do any co-op board members or building managers for small (~36 apt) co-ops in NYC (Manhattan) have advice on package offers for a live-in superintendent?

The RAB guidelines have a lot of detail around non-superintendent position salaries and benefits but little specific to supers - perhaps because they are not always live-in positions? There also seems to be phasing-in of salaries for new to union employees (e.g. 80% of full salary for first 30 months) but I am unclear on whether this is applicable to super positions too.

Any advice or additional resources to look into would be greatly appreciated.

Package - REAPLLC Jul 20, 2018

I have several smaller buildings that size, all non-union and 1 union... theres a big difference in the 2...
My non union guys make the following:
27 unit, part time super with live in: 28,000 plus basic benefits
35 unit, part time super, 2 bedroom apt, 35K per year plus (he's actually there full time anyway)
40 unit, full time super, 2 bdrm apt, 40K per year plus basic benis..
Those are non union...
I have a 44 unit union building where he came in at 55K plus

Super/Resident Manager - Union - Salaries - Donnini Jul 21, 2018

We, too, are looking to learn salaries of live-in Supers/RMs of Park & Fifth Ave buildings. Our co-op has 50 units. The current Super worked his way up & now mostly manages a staff of 8.
Nice man, but no education & needs to look at YouTube for repairs. Managing company keeps suggesting raising him to be in-line with others who he insists are at 150k, but my sense is that those are larger buildings.

REAP LLC: Can you offer a sense of the 44 Unit Union building, location, demographics?

Thank you.
