Hmm, that leads to a really interesting business idea (if it doesn't already exist). The reason a building can have a super is because there's scale. You only really need 1 super to deal with multiple units and overall building issues. Why not start a business where people pay a small monthly subscription fee (effectively as some kind of insurance premium), where a service person can come fix their home issues? This wouldn't be much different from renting an apartment but the key is that with renting your rent includes a portion the landlord should be reserving for maintenance and to pay the super/property manager. This would be the same as condo maintenance/strata fees basically. For major repairs, it's the same thing as being a landlord/owning a condo. Most the time major repairs aren't covered in fees, and you should have a reserve fund. Maybe this business can actually manage that for you and leverage scale of having multiple homes.
