How do you apply for senior citizens’ no income housing in MA?

Sandra asked:


My parents will be over 65 soon and I heard that you can apply for a senior citizens’ no income housing in Massachusetts. Can you not own a home or business within certain number of years before applying? They don’t own a home right now, but they did, not too long ago. Their small business went bankrupt just recently, but they did own one recently as well. What are the conditions required for applying for such housing? What is it like to live there?
