Signs for NYC Co-ops and Condos

Co-ops and condos with 3 or more apartments follow the same lobby sign rules as rentals. The board handles common areas and HPD registration, and signs can be designed to match your lobby.

Good to know

Registration

The board registers the building with HPD, not each unit owner

Smoking

The smoking policy goes in the bylaws or house rules (Local Law 147)

Design

Custom colors and frames are fine. Required wording and sizes stay exact

Read the guide: Required Signs for Co-op and Condo BuildingsWhat is the same as rentals and what is different for boards

How sign and notice rules compare for rentals, co-ops and condos. Quantities are examples. Floor signs depend on your floor count. General guide, not legal advice.

Common questions

Do co-ops need HPD signs?

Yes. Co-ops and condos with 3 or more apartments need the same lobby signs as rentals.

Can our signs match the lobby design?

Yes. Colors, frames and your building name can be custom, as long as the required wording and sizes stay the same.

Who orders the signs, the board or the managing agent?

Usually the managing agent orders for the board. We offer Net 30 for management companies.
