Questions about this benchmark

Director of Property Management compensation, explained.

How much does a nonprofit Director of Property Management make?+
The national median total reportable compensation is $162,867, though it varies widely with organization size, geography, and mission area.
Where does this salary data come from?+
Every figure is drawn from IRS Form 990 filings — the annual public return most tax-exempt organizations must file. It reflects actual reported compensation, not survey estimates or self-reported figures.
What is included in the compensation figure?+
Total reportable compensation from Form 990 Part VII and Schedule J: base salary, bonus and incentive pay, retirement and deferred compensation, and other reportable and nontaxable benefits.
How current is the data?+
These benchmarks draw on the most recent IRS Form 990 filings available. Because each nonprofit files on its own tax-year cycle and the IRS posts filings on a lag, the figures are blended across filers rather than tied to a single calendar year.
Is this enough to defend our board’s decision?+
It’s the market context. For a defensible file, your board also needs your organization’s position against a matched peer group and contemporaneous documentation — which is what the Board Confidence Report produces.
