Centennial Overture is kept immaculate. You can't find a crumb on the floor! The people that live here are always friendly and helpful. Management staff tries hard. That is why I renewed my lease.

I find that the maintenance issues that I have had were fixed in a timely manner and done right. I like my apartment and the people here are very welcoming.

Sep 17, 2024

Just so quiet and comfortable and no stress.i like that you have many options to participate in so many things or you can just do nothing and enjoy life as it is.

Sep 14, 2024

My experience at Overture Centennial has been wonderful! The apartments are very comfortable, the residents are great and the staff that look after us are very professional and respectful

Sep 8, 2024

Although pricey, there are plenty of advantages compared to other apartments in the area. Having neighbors who are in the same age-range is a plus.

Sep 7, 2024

Good community and staff are responsive to requests. Rent is higher than some but you have more amenities and a community that makes you feel welcome.

Sep 3, 2024

This facility is well-maintained and has a super staff. The amenities are fabulous and never over-taxed with people. Everything is kept neat and orderly. The apartments are very quiet.

Aug 28, 2024

I enjoy living at Centennial. I moved in as the second resident as they opened. There have been good changes. Greg and Shawn are wonderful taking care of all maintenance needs. Cat our manager has kept our building running smoothly. At our Town Hall meeting she shared what has been completed and what is going to be completed in the future. Answered all questions submitted. Desiree is always positive and helpful. Erika plans events and does a nice job on calendar and news letter. Jane is always approachable, cheerful and helpful. We have a great team. Thank you

Aug 25, 2024

Maintenance has a great response time. Activities are creative and inclusive. They reflect various cultures, community outreach and highlight diversity

Aug 10, 2024

I love this building. The amenities are great. The other residents are all very friendly and easy to get along with. The gym is state of art.

Aug 1, 2024

This is our first official night here, tho we haven’t completely moved things are going well. People we meet are friendly and many offer help or advice. So far so good!

Jul 1, 2024

The Ovrrture Centennial is Lovely community and looking forward to my move in date. The staff and resident are very warm and friendly people.

Jul 1, 2024

It is a very nice community. Surrounded by parks, close to many eateries and shopping as well as doctors and hospitals. We are especially pleased with quality of Duke Health. I requested several times that someone from management looks into the automatic door closures. It makes live miserable for us old folks how they operate. Some of them are downright dangerous. Besides of that no complaints. Erica does a fabulous job with the events.

Jun 24, 2024

Communicative Management Professional & excellent maintenance staff Activities coordinator very creative Excellent “sales” person Meticulous grounds

Jun 14, 2024

Loving living at this community. Everyone is so nice and helpful. So much fun on pool night I love the water aerobics. They keep the Landscaping so nice and neat.

Jun 9, 2024

Excellent staff that are always accessible and are very helpful with a smile on their face and a kind word.everyone including the janitorial staff always have a warm greeting.

Jun 5, 2024

Just moved in last week but so far everyone and I mean EVERY SINGLE ONE of the people I've met has been welcoming and helpful and kind! And I love my beautiful new apartment!

May 29, 2024

Everyone has been so helpful, so friendly, so kind and patient with me during the move in. Love, love, love the new modern apartment with all the windows and new flooring and new appliances.

May 28, 2024

Comfortable place to live and make new friends. There are a number of activities for group interaction as well as gatherings for celebration on holidays, a mix and mingle night each week, a craft room with instructor as well as a fitness room.

May 18, 2024

Enjoyed the past two years. No major complaints, especially with maintenance and cleanliness which is a high priority for me. A change in Staff since I have been here has caused some confusion and disagreements. The new staff is very organized and competent BUT do not have people skills and are not receptive to residents issues and changes.

May 16, 2024

I’ve lived Overture since the very beginning when they opened In 2020. I love it here and hope to stay in my home as long as possible. The staff are very helpful and caring and I appreciate that.

May 15, 2024

Maintanance is first class. Repairs are done fast and right the first time, usually within the same day. A very comfortable feeling. Thank you Greg and Shawn

Apr 29, 2024

I’ve met beautiful people here that will be lifetime friends. I feel our experience is what we make it. It can be beautiful if we make it that way. It’s a place where we can reach out make another persons life worth their living. If we are happy, the people we run into during the day will turn into happiness also. Life is not about me, but helping those around us feel good about themselves. We are never alone, there’s always someone around us to talk to. Our staff members are the best now. They are going out of their way to do nice things to make our days fulfilled. I appreciate how willing the staff is to help us even when they’re busy, they still take time to help us with our concerns. I say thank you to each one here who helps us! It’s cleaner than I’ve seen it since I came here two and a half years ago. Big appreciation about that!!

Apr 4, 2024

Just used resident point system and it was very easy to use and had everything I wanted -- thanks for making it so easy - and nice that I had some additional points left

Mar 25, 2024

I moved from California to the Overture Centennial a year ago. I have living here to be very pleasant. I am very active walk and use the gym here. Great location with the beautiful Rocky Branch Greenway right outside our door. Lots of community involvement with all the activities available. I really like my (man cave) apartment. Great staff here at the Overture Centennial Raleigh.

Mar 24, 2024

After living here for 6 months, we are happy about our decision to move to Overture Centennial. Our neighbors are very friendly and helpful. Management , especially Jane, is very friendly too. They are always accommodating and helpful too. Our apartment is beautiful. The grounds are kept well. The only complaint I have is that many of the interior self closing doors need to be adjusted to the guidelines. Some of them are dangerous when closing. I hope someone will listen to make it a bit easier for us old folks.

Mar 15, 2024

Nice apartment. Maintenance requests are handled immediately. Nice activities that allow networking and mingling. Building is relatively quiet and the surrounding areas make me feel safe.

Mar 3, 2024

Living at Overture Centennial is a dream. The apartments are very nice, the maintenance is fantastic and the staff is very professional. The upkeep is amazing and the residents are very friendly. There is a gym and a coffee bar and they have many social activities

Feb 24, 2024

I have lived here since November 1, 2023 and am still very happy that I chose Overture Centennial as my new home. Not only are the residents friendly, but the staff does its best to hear what we have to say (both good and not so good) and to respond as quickly as possible to any requests. I have never before lived in an apartment setting, so it took some getting used to, but after recently losing my husband, I felt very much alone and it is great that I have friends right around me who really care for me, as well as many activities to choose from so I don't have to stay in my apartment all day. I hope that this will be my home for the rest of my time here on earth!

Feb 13, 2024

It has been a good experience. Have made Lots of new friends. I really like the staff as they are so helpful, Do a great job entertaining us with mix and Mingle. They really do a good job in keeping this Residence clean and often touch up with Paint

Feb 9, 2024

Management has recently changed for the BETTER, I believe. However I do not agree with a few changes but as a whole I think it is good. Made friends and enjoyed activities. Maintenance has IMPROVED 100% and made life easier. Cleanliness is now up to standard where under old management it was not.

Feb 8, 2024

Clean, good hours of operation, need better parking system. Had maintenance fix my leaky windows, hot water. Need too many characters for this review. Thanks.

Feb 8, 2024

The people that are my new neighbors are wonderful! Everyone that lives here is thoughtful and friendly. I made the right choice moving to Overture Centennial.

Feb 7, 2024

It's very nice place to live. Very friendly people. We love the events that they have for the residents. We love the workout room and the instructors days that they come. The coffee area is one of my favorites.

Jan 29, 2024

Everything here has been satisfactory for me. I really enjoy the Chair Yoga class..our instructor, Maggie, does a great job with us every Wednesday..I am just sorry our Friday class has been terminated…

Jan 28, 2024

I just moved in this past week and really like it here. All the people are very friendly and I have found the activities wonderful. I am looking forward to making new friends.

Jan 28, 2024

Haven't moved in yet. Will do at end of month. I like to be addressed as Ron Osler. My formal name is Ronald David Osler. For this question I was Ronald David. That's all. So far my my impression of Centennial is very high. I selected it over 4 others, 3 in Orlando and 1 other in Raleigh. I'm excited to be coming soon.

Jan 10, 2024

Our Winter Gala was held on Wednesday 12/15, here at Centennial. It was a smashing success. The food was yummy, the desserts were beyond wonderful and the jazz band and singer were terrific. The tables had been pre-set with white tablecloths and decorated with holiday lights. The staff, under Catrina's direction, did an outstanding job of making the evening enjoyable for everyone who attended. Thanks, Centennial staff for a job well done. K.H.

Dec 17, 2023

Just moved in! Everyone is friendly and helpful! Love my neighbors and the free coffee is awesome! Can't wait to play pool and ping pong. Checked out a book already and will be participating in the craft room.

Dec 12, 2023

The community living at Overture Centennial is warm and inviting, as are the apartments. We are about a mile away from two grocery stores, a drug stores, physicians and much more. The staff are helpful and accessible.

Dec 10, 2023

After two months we are very happy. Nice environment mostly nice people. Very good and responsive management team. Also the maintenance team is very responsive

Dec 6, 2023

I have been very impressed with the friendly atmosphere here. I love my apartment. I also like the amenities. there is something for everyone.

Nov 30, 2023

I enjoy living in my community. There are a few things that need updating but new management and maintenance have been making positive strides. We received a Thanksgiving gift from the staff, which made me feel appreciated. Nice thought.

Nov 28, 2023

Overture Centinnial is improving with new management and maintenance. There are issues and it might be worth considering forming a resident advisory group to work with management to solve issues.

Nov 19, 2023

Staff is Excellent Professional, Friendly and helpful. A list of doctors , optometrist and specialist in the area. A map of the stores and facilities within a 20!mike radius would be helpful.

Nov 16, 2023

Been here two years yesterday, and love every day. Love the availability of two parks surrounding us plus WRAL Azalea gardens in walking distance, plus all the perks that go with our complex. Great managers here also!

Nov 16, 2023

Overture Centennial is a dream! The apartments are very modern and comfortable. The community is very friendly and the staff is highly professional. The maintenance people are extremely prompt and courteous.

Nov 16, 2023

events have had better beer lately (blue moon & octoberfest) thank you! we also had burgers once this summer. i think everyone enjoys burgers more than hotdogs. i mention it since when i moved in we had burger cookouts for almost every holiday so i am hoping that there will be more burgers & good beer in 2024.

Nov 5, 2023

Enjoy the area.Getting to places around the area is Covid to to get to.Near my physicians and pharmacy. The area is extremely quiet. Activities are plentiful for residents if you are interested in joining in fun and fellowship.

Oct 22, 2023

Great location, great opportunities to meet people! I love little details like the shopping carts located at the elevators. The common areas are great places to hang out with others and meet new people.

Sep 17, 2023

I have not moved in yet, but I am very excited about joining everyone there. I have heard only good things about Overture. My apartment looks great and the staff is extremely friendly and helpful. See you all soon!

Sep 6, 2023

Moving in after knee surgery. Should be settled in by October. Looking forward to meeting my coffee mates on my first day. May need some friendly help on that very tiring day.

Aug 28, 2023

We are moving in on September 19 but stayed at the guest suite which was very pleasant. The only problem was the bed which is too small for two people.

Aug 28, 2023

Overture Centennial is a wonderful place to live. The apartments are extremely comfortable. The staff is very professional and there are many amenities to take advantage of.

Aug 9, 2023

the entire staff has left since i moved here nearly 2 years ago & i hope their replacements will be good since the staff was a key reason i moved here, along with the amenities. the amenities have also decreased since i moved here but they're still good.

Aug 5, 2023

Without a doubt, Overture Centennial is the finest place I’ve ever lived. The place is incredibly clean all the time, the staff are friendly and helpful and the residents really make you feel at home. It’s also incredibly quiet and peaceful at night. I just love it!

Jul 7, 2023

Living at Overture Centennial is a wonderful experience. The apartments are very comfortable, the staff is very professional and the residents are very friendly. There is a beautiful pool and a great gym . There are many social events available which males a for a terrific experience.

Jun 1, 2024

Maintenance is much improved. They come very quickly when I call them. I would still like for the interior door at entrance three to be quieter.

Mar 4, 2024

Very happy with Overture Centennial. Great improvements made in the past 7 months. Great staff has improved quality of life for residents. Happy to recommend the Overture Centennial!

Mar 3, 2024

This is an excellent place to live. The staff and other residents become part of your family. Activities are exceptional. You can be as involved as you want to be

Nov 20, 2023

New mgr, Cat, is excellent! She listens to our concerns and has made changes that have come to fruition. I was undecided regarding lease renewal and the changes she made were immediately improved. Hence s, I renewed EARLY!

Nov 16, 2023

I find everyone to be friendly and willing to make new friends. Because there are varied events and activities you can meet new people all the time.

Oct 28, 2023

I’ve lived at Overture about 15 months and had a great experience, having met a lot of people who are also residents. The facilities and staff are great. There is a good mix of down time and planned activities.

Sep 1, 2023

In general it is still a good community. But! It is going downhills. Signs are not replaced. Lightbulbs are not replaced. Supposedly light bulbs are too expensive. Doors are open all night. Nobody adjust them. It’s very trashy around the trash bins and around the back parking lot. A year ago it was a great community. Not anymore.

Oct 4, 2024

I really enjoy my community. People here are very friendly. We play lots of card games and keep each other busy. I like this active lifestyle.

Sep 16, 2024

Like the quiet and getting things repaired when needed. Place is clean and the wife likes the activities. Pool is nice. People seem to have pride in where they live.

Jul 3, 2024

Happy with friends I have gotten to know here. Maintenance is Fabulous! Greg doing a terrific job ! Covering entire building without his assistant. Weekdays and Weekends he is here caring for the needs of Everyone at Overture! We appreciate his kindness and positive attitude toward residents.

Jul 1, 2024

I am starting to get to know people I do enjoy it. I do like the idea of a name badge. I can’t remember names at all. Better communication when the art classes cancel. Better ice machine

May 30, 2024

If a 4.5 star rating were an option, I would choose it. Rarely can you have a perfect experience anywhere you live, but Overture Centennial comes close to perfect.

May 29, 2024

great events & good maintenance. disappointed the front parking area has not been converted to guest, handicap & deliveries as promised by staff in 2022.

May 5, 2024

The new management is doing great, very pleased with all the activities at our center. I am only concerned that the new management has changed their office doors from clear to frosted, so when their doors are closed they cannot see who is coming in or going out. This might be a safety concern. Thanks

May 4, 2024

I enjoy living here. But like anything else, there are bumps in the road. The recent problems with the fitness program are indicative -- and preventable with a little better planning. The last fitness operator ended their programming on 3/26 or 27. So there was no plan to cover 3/28 & 29 classes that were posted as taking place. That is an easy advance fix. Then on 4/2, the new company didn't have a yoga instructor but a room full of 13 residents were waiting for an instructor who never showed up. And the manager indicated it wasn't her problem. Lastly, with a new company and new instructors in place, it should have been obvious that someone from management drop into each day's classes (all new) just to see how they were going. No one did. Or at the end of the week, reach out to participants for feedback. Switching gears slightly, if management does ever reach out to participants for feedback, perhaps they should find out if any other programming is wanted.

Apr 4, 2024

Overall it's a nice place many features available a little on the expense side specially if you happen to end up with a pool view... to me is not worth $300 more. The next issue I got the feeling that I was taken because you get quoted for the rent but, then there are extras, I was told about electricity and water... that are customary but, I did not know about other. To me if there are extras that are not options they should be part of the rent and not separate. Or they can show rent$ garbage$ pestControl$ total$. ...Optionals $$ etc. That will show to me that everything is on list of charges and that there is nothing to hide. I hope they ask me to review again after a month or two not see if all the charges are really worth the money .

Mar 2, 2024

Positives: 1. Apartment gets 5’s for cleanliness, quiet, space utility, large kitchen, storage, surfaces, bathroom size and utility, and windows/treatments. 2. Common areas large and useful . 3. Mailroom(s) convenient 4. Entrances are convenient to elevators/starways. 5. Maintenance great!! Negatives: 1. Residents are generally unfriendly and not institutionally encouraged to be. 2. Residents are spoken down to as students or patients might be.

Jan 26, 2024

I love my apartment but would love if few changes could be made especially put better shelves in the pantry. At present too much space is wasted. As is we have so little storage space in the kitchen.

Jan 20, 2024

I have lived here at Overture Centennial since it opened in 2020. I have seen lots of changes and I am still very happy to be here. The location is amazing. Dix park and Pullen park on either side of us. Right by NC State which offers so many cultural experiences. I feel our new Manager is doing a great job. She has made several changes that were needed. She and our Maintenance staff work hard to keep our community in good shape. They are always willing to listen to any issues or just a hello. I also enjoy the events and fitness classes that we have. The pool and grounds are nice to enjoy in season. The staff here is very friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and efficient. However, these are areas that could use improvement; We need a large recylable bin. It is full in 2 days. Picked up once a week. We desperately need a meeting room. Meeting in open area of The Scene is not doable. Parking is a constant issue. Manager says they are working to improve this.

Dec 10, 2023

I love my apartment....I love my neighbors. This is my home. However, recent staff change has impacted the general atmosphere and activities of our community. The absence of management communication and the lack of interest in, and interaction with, the residents has had a profound effect on the morale and participation of the residents. This is not the community that many of us enjoyed in the past. This is no longer the community many of us raved about to potential residents and that is a great disappointment.

Nov 1, 2023

All is well @ the moment except I have put in a request for a sign to be put up @ stairwell 3 ramp for moving trucks & all other vehicles to please not block the handicap ramp so I can get in with my groceries or whenever I return from anywhere.

Sep 23, 2023

I enjoy living here at Overture Centennial. People here are very friendly and enjoy spending time with other residents either playing games are simply chatting with other residents. Only wish we had more physical activities classes to keep ourself fit and more games on sight like pickle ball, tennis courts or other games.

Sep 22, 2023

The community is wonderful. Fellow residents are welcoming and helpful. We are transitioning from previous to new manager and new maintenance person. We need another maintenance person. All Overture Centennial employees are doing their best under the shortage and new managers

Aug 9, 2023

I am very disapointed in my billing , for the water an sewer bill I have called and tell them at conserve that I am being bille twice for my water and sewer bill and they tell me it is because they mad a mistake on the last 3 months and are catching up but they cannot tell me how much was billed wrong

Jun 14, 2024

1) do not require event tickets - instead allow 1 guest per resident. events were working ok during the last 2 years. event wait lines were not an issue until recently when residents were treated like children & told the back of the room had to go up first which caused more congestion. putting a band in the middle of the seating area during the december holiday event caused staff to run around finding chairs for residents. the pool table area is a better band location which would also keep it from being too loud. 2) add guest parking to front as mentioned by staff in 2022 with completion due in 2023. residents were never told why guest parking was not added as planned. towing & forcing guests to park in back when they have no fob is not reasonable. the front parking lot should be for guests, deliveries & handicapped - residents can park in back. residents were not consulted over these 2 drastic recent changes & deserve to have a voice, just like this survey!

Feb 5, 2024

So far so good. Two new to say very much. When we have had a question, it has been taken care of. The people that we have met seem to be of the same mind sit that we are. I like the quiet of the apartment. The only problem that I have had, is the lack of parking.

Jan 3, 2024

Things have changed since i have been here, goingto give it a chance with the new officers , they are all very friendly and we are having a news letter for trhe month, happy to see it. more to follow.

Jan 3, 2024

I can see Overture Centennial’s efforts to show their resident appreciation. Their concept is really good and generally well done. However their efforts often fall short. A classic example is the recent Gala. The setting and the music was excellent but the snacks was another story. The quality wasn’t bad but the residents at the end of the line had hardly anything left to choose from or to eat. Also, the wine is always cheap and not very good.

Dec 21, 2023

My apartment is great. Just what I wanted/needed. The community was marketed as a 55+ Active Community and I'm 73 so thought I was age appropriate. It's not that active. I have only met a handful of people who are truly active. That's been a bit disappointing. But not that important in the overall scope of things. My only interaction with the new Community Manager was also disappointing. She was lecturing everyone on the consequences of having anyone's dog pee on the common area rugs. I felt like a 3rd grader and I don't even own an animal. A better approach might have been to ask for resident cooperation in solving a community problem rather than talking down to us. We are after all adults. The exercise program is great -- good instructors. Like that a lot. I like receiving texts with events or whatever. Good reminders that come right to your phone.

Oct 30, 2023

Very optimistic with our new Manager on site. Excellent Meet & Greet with Cat and Staff. Greg has been a fantastic addition to Overature Centennial. He has reduced the stress and anxiety of residents in the care of our community. His positive way has made everyone happy he is here.

Aug 28, 2023

Love Overture, but... i thought i got alot of points for renewing my lease... hmmm...i do not like having to use alot of characters for my responses.

Aug 13, 2024

New Management! Period of grace. Maintenance people are very good. This building needs a staff member to be here during weekends. Carpets by the elevators are in great need of cleaning.

Nov 23, 2023

Nice. Still waiting on parking, storage and outside trash and bench. Wish for weekend activities and evening stuff. Better communication. Trash bin closer to handicap ramps.

Nov 5, 2023

I have not yet moved in, but have met several current residents and was impressed with their friendliness and helpfulness. I look forward to moving in next month.

Apr 20, 2024

The first year here was good my second year here was miserable due to the person above me being Extremely Loud and I assume not with it mentally any longer she made noise at 12:00 a.m. and ended at around 2:00 a.m. it happened sporadically 3-5 nights per week. I informed the previous people who were in charge about it and they didn't do anything about the situation until she left. Being a disabled veteran I did not confront the tenant above because I can have a seizures, she either moved or died and the former staff didn't bother to tell me, because they were extremely unprofessional (sorry but it was true all except for Tori, and Charles the maintenance man) But, for now everything seems OK. I will keep my fingers crossed. I have nothing else to add. Good luck
