¿Cuánto le pueden subir a la cuota de administración? Salarios y seguridad presionan los presupuestos para 2026

TL;DR

The 23.7% minimum wage increase has renewed debate on residential administration fees in Colombia.
Current Colombian law (Law 675 of 2001) states that co-owner assemblies approve annual budgets and determine administration fees.
There are no automatic legal caps or mandatory formulas for adjusting administration fees, nor mandatory indexing to the minimum wage or consumer price index (IPC).
About 7 million out of 14 million urban housing units in Colombia are under the horizontal property regime.
Security and cleaning services represent 60-70% of administration budgets and are highly sensitive to minimum wage increases.
Fedelonjas estimates administration fee increases to be between 18% and 20% based on real costs, recommending detailed budget reviews rather than generalized percentage increases.
Limiting fee increases solely to the IPC without budget review could lead to operational deficits, affecting services.
A timing mismatch between cost adjustments (Jan 1) and ordinary co-owner assemblies (Mar-Apr) can create financial shortfalls.
Fedelonjas urges co-owners to actively participate in assemblies, review budgets line by line, and ensure clear financial reporting and control mechanisms.
