Terrible customer service

So terrible customer service. They keep delaying everything for us. We have been following up since last 10 months and still they dont respond. Once the house is sold they keep ignoring you. Never ever buy house with Avant. We are in Darach fields Robroyston, Glasgow. Please stay away from this development.

First Time Buyer Experience

The Team at Avant homes have been super helpful, kind & positive whilst sharing the process of buying my first house with me. Kornelija has been very understanding of my nerves and questions and has been patient all the way through and kept me excited! I have a clear path of what will happen next and i think its perfect customer service for anyone doing this for the first time. Thank you to everyone at Avant

Julia at Lawrence point is honestly an asset to Avant. We initially viewed another site which is not ran by Julia, and the plot just wasn’t what we wanted. We then realised there was a closer development so on an off chance I popped in to just collect a price list - Julia was so welcoming and cheerful, and our first encounter with her was amazing.

Buyer Beware. Like most new-build homes, my property at Earl Park had a number of snagging issues. Whilst some have been addressed, one significant defect first reported in September 2024 remains unresolved. Avant Homes have acknowledged the issue, sent multiple contractors to inspect and price the required remedial works, and even had a proposed solution put forward. However, once the costs were returned, I was informed the works could not obtain the necessary sign-off and no resolution has been provided. After raising a formal complaint in January 2026, I have still not received a final response within the timeframe set out in their complaints procedure and have been left with no option but to escalate the matter to the New Homes Ombudsman Service. For a developer of this size that heavily promotes its five-star rating, the level of aftercare, communication and accountability has been extremely disappointing. Prospective buyers should carefully consider the level of support they may receive once they have moved in.

Paul at Brompton mews is amazing and fantastic so knowledgeable and really dedicated his time to us.

Excellent service and professionalism

I would like to provide positive feedback for Andy Jones following his recent visit to our property. We had a number of minor snagging issues, and Andy took the time to thoroughly inspect and document each one. He resolved several of the issues during the visit itself, which was greatly appreciated.

I went to Five Rise Quarter at Bingley

I went to Five Rise Quarter at Bingley. I had arranged to see Abi on the day the show home opened. Abi was extremely helpful and explained everything to us showing us diagrams etc. I was interested in a two bed house but the show house was a larger detached house. Abi explained how we could see where I wanted to be from the upstairs window. Abi said she would make us an appointment to look round a Ripley house. This was done and she walked round with us explaining about the different upgrades etc. I was very pleased as to how helpful she was and will definitely go back with any further enquiries I have

Too many snagging issues and barely attended to. I have issues raised over 7 months ago and still have not been attended. These issues have cost me money and the builder simply ignores emails like there is no after sales service at all. I have emails 2 weeks old that have not been acknowledged. I have a green patch on my ceiling for almost a month now. Clearly you're valued when you are looking to buy a house, once you're in, they do not care about you or what you say or issues you raise. I personally regret the move although this was well polished on the outside. Don't make the mistake I made...

Monkswood, Telford.

Moving home is a huge milestone; selling your home and putting your trust in strangers is monumental. I was incredibly anxious about buying a new build, but the team at Monkswood have been nothing short of wonderful.
