Thirty apartment rents are scaled down according to income at 30%. Those not qualifying for the very low income units pay either the basic rent, or pay rent figured on a sliding scale depending on income. Residents paying these higher rents are given priority for subsidized units as their income changes. Mission Towers has a forty year mortgage through Massachusetts Housing Finance Agency. Rents include a utility allowance. Units are individually metered with electric heat and gas hot water with solar panels. Mission Towers has a new air-conditioned dining and activity room with a TV, two roof decks each with a greenhouse, a beautician shop, common spaces on each floor, wellness clinic, and laundry. Residents must have documented special needs to qualify for a two bedroom unit. Mission Towers has a manager, two superintendents, and a housekeeper. A nurse is on-site three days and a Resident Services coordinator 2 days a week.
