In the 1970s, the Commonwealth created the 13A Program, a state rental development program modeled after the federal 236 Program. • The 13A subsidy functions as a debt service subsidy reducing the interest rate on the mortgage to 1% for the owner. • Income-eligible households pay the greater of 30% of adjusted income or the Basic Rent, a MassHousing-approved budget-based rent
