Brentwood Estates is wonderful. My grandma is having a good time, and enjoying herself there. The meals are awesome, and they are meeting her needs. The only issue I have is with the price lock. They require you to do a price lock, so that the rent won't increase every so often. I feel it's very confusing, and very ridiculous. It increases to something like $50 each time. There's no cap. It's also very confusing to the residents there. To do the price lock, you have to pre pay a certain amount. I feel this needs to be looked into, because it just seems odd. We expected to sign the lease/contract, and be charged for the same amount each month, no have increased rates every so often.

I was having a very difficult time finding a home for my mom who will be 86 this year that was safe and was affordable. Most of the retirement homes were way out of our financial reach. After talking to Senior Advisor they directed me to Brentwood Estates. I went there the next day and had a apartment the same day. They have been beyond helpful, compassionate and most of all competent. My mom is enjoying herself and is not so lonely. She has a cute home with a nice balcony. She is given three good meals a day, which are good, because I have eaten there. There are so many activities to keep her interested, that she has little time to feel lonely. I feel blessed with the help I received and the place that I found for mom.

My loved has just moved in. It seems like a nice place. There are outside areas for residents to enjoy. The food seems good. I wasn’t there the day my loved one moved in, but there doesn’t seem to be any concerns with parking.

We stopped in and had dinner at the Brentwood estates(by the way it was very good). we found the staff to be very helpful and freindly but it did not satisfy the care needs we were looking for, it seems there was not too much help for the residents. Although I would have to say from a budget standpoint it was very affordable living.

It was nice, but one thing that is a deal breaker is there is not a full kitchen in the apartment. Mom would have to have the option to cook in her own place.

I really did like Brentwood. I almost got a place there for my dad. It had a balcony so he could sit outside which would have been really nice. The issue is that their down payment is not refundable. They say they weave it into their orientation process but it's $1000 that you don't get back. It's very nice, a little bit fancier than other places. The staff there was very nice and their dining room is a little bit fancier but they're not an assisted living place either. So it was very nice but the whole business with the deposit turned me off.
