How many square feet is your co-op apartment and how many dollars is your monthly maintenance charge, (include ongoing assessments).

Our board is wrestling with how competitive our maintenance level is, and I’ve read that the current average for Manhattan co-ops is between $1.20 and $1.80/sf. I’m assuming Brooklyn is somewhat lower, but how much lower? Especially with the recent increases in fuel costs and RE taxes.

Ours is hovering at slightly below $1/sf currently.

Perhaps if you live in a high-amenity building (doorman, gym, etc. you could indicate that too).

Thanks for any input.
