HUD logs its program type as "Combined," which determines which voucher streams (regular HCV, VASH, Family Unification, Mainstream, or project-based conversions) it can run.

Across MA's 20 HUD FMR areas, the FY2026 2-bedroom payment standard runs $1,527-$3,138/month (median $2,078); Revere Housing Authority sets its own figure within 90-110 percent of HUD's Fair Market Rent for the specific area it serves, so confirm the exact number for your metro before signing anything.
