Be very mindful to read small print

We first bought for avant and at first service was great, afterwards it dwindled, we had a flood in the house which was caused by the outside tap freezing over and not being isolated after a discussion with avant they said it was our fault and we will have to go through with insurance, we went through with insurance and they were great, but avant were of no help at all, we tried to contact them multiple times to find out about the kitchen supplier etc and no help was given , very poorly handled from avant, we are a year on and our window is still not fixed and is very drafty ignored once again, beyond disappointed, I say this with the upmost seriousness, try your best to stay away from buying a home with avant the aftercare is abysmal, multiple snags take 3+ times to solve very disappointed as soon as we can sell we will and buy another home from another developer

5* Experience at Bennerly View , Highly Recommend!

We had an outstanding experience working with Sarah and Zehra at Bennerley View. From start to finish they’ve been friendly, helpful and easy to deal with, they genuinely wanted to make sure we were happy and comfortable with every step of the process.

Avant don't care at all.

I used the Avant complaints process for someone to investigate my shoddy tiling. That was in August, no one has come to inspect the tiling yet and every now and then I get a cut and paste email from the regional manager telling me how important my issue is to them and they are still waiting on a date from the tiling company. Once you have a house with Avant you will get very variable support on snagging issues and only then if you take so much time to chase them up. They really don't care at all and their amazing reviews are perplexing and not reflective of the situation here. We have had some great workmen round to fix issues, of which there were quite a few, but unfortunately they all leave the company quite quickly.

We visited the chesterfield development…

We visited the chesterfield development site as this site is of interest to us, we received a friendly welcome from Tashana and Louise with lots of information given and a look around the show home, we then went to the other sites in our area to see the houses of interest and also received brilliant friendly service and advice from Sarah and Kornelija. It was lovely to see show homes so beautifully presented.

Ensure you read carefully, and push for answers to questions!

Overall I was impressed with Avant Homes regarding my new build, but there were a few frustrations along the way. This was for Seely Fields.

Couldn't have received a better experience

I was skeptical about new build homes previously, but I knew a new build was right for me so followed my gut. I'm so glad I did. Julia and the team at Lawrence Point Eastwood have made my experience flawless from start to finish. Quick responses, friendly faces and all round positive people. Any small snagging issues were sorted immediately and rectified on the day. Can't fault the team or service, has restored my faith in new builds totally.

Craignethan Gate…

We recently moved into the development Craignethan Gate and have had the most wonderful experience when buying a new build. We have previously heard horror stories about new build houses but our move was seamless and stress-free. Any questions or issues we have had since moving in have been dealt with promptly and all repairs have been so quick. A massive thank you to team members Chris Hughes and Kyle Hughes who have provided an excellent standard of customer service throughout the whole process. We love our new home so much!
