Resident Reviews

I love my apartment except that my balcony is closed in with no railings. Overture is a community that watches out for each other. I have trust issues with a member of our mng't team but that's something I have to deal with. Overall it's a great place to live.

I appreciate the many convenient features of my Overture Barrett apartment. Walk-in shower, washer and dryer in the unit, lovely landscaping, and a quiet atmosphere all make for a very comfortable home. Also important to me is the gated parking and the very convenient location of the apartment building. It's close to shopping and restaurants. It's close to I-75, making it very convenient to get anywhere in a short period of time. I have enjoyed living here for more than 3 years.

The Overture Barrett in Kennesaw, provides a positive living environment all the way around. My experience has been just fantastic. Downsizing from a very large home was a challenge simplified at Overture Barrett. From providing a full size Garage to storage units, Overture Barrett has it all! Management, Leasing, Maintenance & all other staff members are so welcoming and just terrific! Thank you all at Overture Barrett! We love living here! Aisha, Sami & Rita

I love my community. The residents make my community the best. We have had 3 mngs in just over a year and it seems like we adjust as a community.

Thank You, Thank You Amy and Osman with your help and guidance with our transfer process from our 4th floor apartment to our now 1st floor apartment.

Only recently can I give a good review. We finally got a good manager! The past few have been control freaks and did not listen to the residents concerns or did they seem to care. Corporate - the whole lobby area and the dinning room needs to be updated, the furniture is falling apart and very outdated. Carpet is awful! With all the new apartments being built around here, this should be a priority.

We haven't been here long, however even before we moved in it was very apparent that the residents were happy, engaged and enjoying all the various activities. Everyone has been really friendly and welcoming towards us. The staff are all upbeat, kind and very helpful. We are so glad that we found a 55+ apartment community that has so many amenities, so well kept with beautiful grounds in the courtyard to enjoy.

I’m enjoying a clean and very pleasant environment. It is very peaceful, and all the residents that I have met are friendly and helpful. The staff also are very friendly and will assist you to make sure you’re comfortable. All my family and guest the have come to visit me are very highly impressed with the elegant atmosphere.

I absolutely love it here. We live like a family and everyone looks out for everyone. We recently had a DJ for a Friday night and I noticed two ladies helping another resident (with MS) to dance with others. It brought tears to my eyes because I realized what a special place that I call home.

Five stars all the way!!! Ms. Trish and Mr Jonathan They went above and beyond to ensure my satisfaction ,Thank you for a Fantastic experience!’

I was able to find the perfect floor plan for my future living space needs. The staff at Overture Barrett are so welcoming and helpful! Thank you all so much!!

I have been here 3 weeks and it was a rough start. I had rented 446 and once getting there it appeared my furniture would not fit…my movers outside with my furniture and Trish rushed to a solution saying there happened to be another 1 bedroom available on the first floor. I like it very much. Quite small with just 2 drawers in the kitchen! I am now used to everything., I love the facility, the programs offered and the kind laid and are a family. I wish I had found you 4 years ago when I moved from Florida. Lovely grounds. In my opinion the only thing missing is some kind of transportation…Uber and Lyft are killers. Round trip to Publix ( less than 1 mile costs just over 20.00. I know there are some services that help with that but getting out for an hour or two would be nice. In my experience her has been above and beyond. Glad to be here!

Amazing experience- terrific team and gorgeous apartments. Couldn’t ask for better. Really appreciated the swift leasing process and the team’s patience while we viewed multiple apartments

Nov 21, 2023

We haven't moved in yet but so far it's been great! We're looking forward to becoming residents. The amenities are just what we're looking for.

Nov 18, 2023

So far so good. The residence seem to be friendly, informative and willing to stop and have a conversation- Trish, Amy, and Andraco have been the staff members that I have banned in contact with since moving in and they all have been accommodating and solving problems when they occur

I have lived there 5 years and love it here. I feel very safe here. Everyone is so pleasant and I can enjoy all the activities or none if I want to. Best decision I made as to where to live as long as I can be independent. If something doesn’t work all I have to do is call and they are there ASAP and always efficient and pleasant. Thanks for the last 5 years!!??❤️

The truly wonderful experience started the moment we walked through the front lobby! We were greeted by Trecia with a bright smile and a warm welcome. The amenities that this resort like living are amazing and I cannot wait to get involved. The apartment is roomy and has lots of storage and room. Thank you!

I see positive changes happening in my community every day. My positive experiences far out weigh anything that can be considered negative. I love my community !!!

Living in Overture Barrett, an Over 55 Community has freed me from all the maintenance & upkeep requirements normally associated with owning a home. No longer do I spend my Saturdays mowing the lawn & doing household repairs. Overture Barrett has a full-time maintenance crew to handle any & all repairs necessary. The extent of my involvement in apartment repairs is making one telephone call. The same goes for appliance repair/replacements. One phone call is all it takes to have a major appliance repaired or replaced. Maintenance free living = peace of mind!!

Aug 30, 2023

I’m so glad I chose to move here. It was been nothing but stellar and I would n NK it trade it for anything. The amenities, the people staff and the resort style living is perfect.

Aug 14, 2023

Fedora the property manager is fantastic. She helped me with any problems I am having! I also love seeing all of the updates to the community! Maintenance does a great job too! I have enjoyed living here at Overture Barrett! Keep up the great work!

Our new assistant, Ormond, has met my inquiries about my renewal with courtesy and promptness. He has been a pleasure to work with. We are continuing to meet.

I enjoy living at Overture Barrett. It's in a very convenient location, close to shopping and restaurants, and close to I-75 and I-575. Overture Barrett has many amenities, including a pool, fitness center and exercise classes, a movie theater, and a beautiful courtyard. The staff does a very good job of maintaining the premises. They are responsive to the needs and desires of the residents. They work hard to resolve issues. I like the automatic doors that were recently installed at my entrance and the new furniture by the elevator. All in all, I consider Overture Barrett a great place to live.

Overture Barrett is a great place to live! Convenient location, very nice decor, quiet atmosphere, and helpful staff members. I have lived here almost three years and have been very satisfied living here.

Jun 4, 2024

it is a great place to live. The staff is very nice and are always helpful. I enjoy the activities. The property is well maintained and kept very clean. I feel that I picked the right place to move to.

May 18, 2024

I’m beginning to feel at home after 2 weeks of living here. I find the other residents and staff to be very warm, welcoming and readily available to respond to any questions I’ve had.

Mar 11, 2024

Overture Barrett, is centeted in a walkable location ( Ernest Barrett Pkwy & Cobb Pkwy). The property is beautifully designed with complementing decor. The residents are warm and welcoming.

We have lived at Overture for five years, moved from Michigan to help family. Great people at Overture, both residents and staff! I think all retires are concerned about rising prices.

Sep 16, 2023

I am seeing several issues being turned around for the better as far as living conditions and location this is a fantastic place to live, I think Overture should be checking the area rentals to see what they are renting for. Most of them are much much lower than Overture, and offering the same annuities,

Aug 8, 2023

Living at Overture is a great experience if you're ready to rid yourself of the responsibility of a house. The residents are warm and caring and accepting. We enjoy each other and some of us choose to gather at4 o'clock each day to socialize . It's like having a large extended family.

Jul 2, 2024

Staff was very pleasant and helpful. Amy answered all the question my wife and had, and all the staff was very knowledgeable. There was a good variety of apartment styles to choose, and the amenities were beautiful.

Overture Barrett is a very friendly and welcoming place. The residents enjoy those within their group. Basically, your group can be as many or as few you want it to be. There are activities offered and you can participate in those you choose. The staff is friendly and helpful, and I have found the maintenance staff to respond to any needs you present on the portal. Overall, it is an active, friendly community and a pleasant place to call home.

The neighborhood is in a prime location. The resident-led activities are a great way to meet new people. There are often various things to do around the community.

Feb 2, 2024

Great neighbors, convenient to most places, needs a variety of amenities for all ages, monthly rent could be lower, breakfast times need to accommodate all residents not just the retired residents.

Jan 18, 2024

The Overture staff and resident community are great. The staff is pleasant and kind. The residents are friendly and welcoming. The location of Overture Barrett is very convenient to stores, restaurants, interstates, and entertainment. Only two negative things I can say; the breakfasts are poor and not conducive for working residents and the rent is too expensive.

Sep 21, 2023

Overture Barrett is one of the best 55+ Communities I’ve experienced. The Management Staff is so helpful in supplying our needs and concerns.

Jun 28, 2023

Some are very nice, and some are not so nice!!!!! Still living in the 50s but it’s okay ,so what I do is love the good ones and let GOD take care the BAD ones , we don’t have control over what other people do only ourselves!!!!!!!

May 31, 2024

The staff have increased their offerings for community events, which are very appreciated. The amenities are nice and are updated. The location is close to shops and restaurants.

Oct 27, 2023

In the Greystar story, CEO Bob Faith worked to develope rental housing set out to meet the need for housing that was more focused on people’s needs not assets. Many people over 55 are living on fixed incomes. It seems with all of our rent increases, the original intent has been moved away from. I understand you have costs that need to be met, yet in looking around at other apartments, your rent is higher and percentage wise the rate of your rent increase is more than most others for senior living.

This apartment is in an ideal location next to restaurants, stores, and entertainment. Residents are friendly and often organize community events.

Jul 6, 2023

We are quite concerned to see many residents dissatisfied and moving to other locations thereby leaving many many vacancies. The rise in rent and the water/sewer issue charges are major factors. Lack of communication from staff and not getting consistent answers. The breakfasts are not consistent; sometimes there are none and many times not enough food till 10 AM.

Jun 27, 2023

It has not been good at Overture Barrett for several months. We still do not have pool furniture and we keep getting different stories about that issue. There is a general lack of organization with the management and communication is at its worst ever. The valet trash service was thrust upon us with out any notice and mis information. E-mail event notices are sent out at the last minute and then the times always get changes. We desperately need a new manager who knows how to manage, please.
