Our
guidelines require that your household spend no more than
35% of its gross
monthly income on rent.
Gross income is before
any deductions for taxes.
The required gross
monthly income, based on our current rates,
is as follows:
Unit
Size
Minimum Gross Monthly Income
1-Bedroom
$1,928
2-Bedroom
$2,371
We require a copy of your most recent
paystub(s) to verify your income.
It is illegal in Massachusetts to discriminate against a prospective
tenant on the basis that they receive some portion of their income from
public assistance. However, unless you have a Section-8
voucher,
your income must meet these guidelines. For more information
about Section-8, please click here.
If your household does not qualify financially, you may still obtain a
lease by presenting us with a credit-worthy guarantor. Simply
have the guarntor fill out an application and submit it along with your
own.
Once we determine your financial ability, then we will check your
credit and contact you prior landlords for references. We may
also check your criminal background and/or eviction records.
