Since this property may have a Section 8 Property Based Rental Assistance contract with rental assistance available to its residents, it is likely the property has a waiting list. Sometimes these waiting lists can be months or years long and may or may not be accepting new applicants. You should contact the property to verify.
Note: Affordable Housing Online has not confirmed the waiting list status directly with the property. This waiting list status forecast is based on our housing experts' knowledge of similar properties. You should always confirm this status directly with the property.
General Shepard consists of 107 apartment homes for elderly or disabled persons and families. At the center of the community is a beautiful courtyard in which residents can relax in the gazebo, or take a walk and enjoy the flower gardens.
General Shepard is located in the heart of downtown Westfield, MA. Westfield is rich in history, which includes the history of General William Shepard, for whom our community is named. General William Shepard, a distinguished Westfield native, fought in the War for Independence and was the companion of General Washington in most of his battles of the Revolution. A statue of General Shepard stands in the center of the town green.
A portion of the community is the converted and rehabilitated building that once housed the United States Whip Company. During the 1800s, this company produced nearly 90% of the whips made in the country. This is how Westfield came to be known as the Whip City.
This property participates in the Section 8 Project-Based Rental Assistance program meaning the rent for many, if not all, units is based on a tenant's income. You would not pay more than 30% of your income for rent. To qualify, you must earn 50% or less of the Area Median Income (AMI), which you can find on this page’s income chart. Also, project-based Section 8 properties tend to have longer waiting lists, with some with waiting lists going out for years. This property was also financed through a HUD-insured private mortgage meaning the owner has oversight from both a private bank and HUD. This usually means General Shepard Apartments is kept in good condition. Since this property has a project-based Section 8 contract, you won't need a Section 8 voucher to live here. If you have a voucher, you may have to give it up to live here.
