Consumers frequently mention that the sales team is exceptionally helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable throughout the property buying journey. People deeply appreciate the clear communication and steady support provided when viewing and reserving their new homes. However, some customers also noted that after-sales service can be poor and communication drops off once the purchase is complete.

Craignethan Gate experience

Moved in to our new home at Craignethan Gate in April and could not be happier with the experience. As first time buyers we were unsure on a lot of the process of buying a home and what to expect. The full team have been very helpful from sales advisors to site managers. Alison, Caroline, Chris and Kyle have all been professional, friendly and efficient.

Any small issues were fixed quickly and reassurance given. We have had to call Chris and Kyle with queries and they had one of the guys on the team out to look at the issue within the hour. Cannot recommend enough!

I feel the attention to detail on the full development has been great! Looking forward to continuing to enjoy our new home.

Great experience with Andy and Paul

We had Andy and Paul visit our house to fix a shower leak, and both of them were fantastic. They were friendly, cheerful, and highly professional throughout. They identified and resolved the issue quickly, ensuring everything was working perfectly before they left. They also took the time to tidy up afterwards, leaving everything clean and in great condition. We’re extremely pleased with the service and would highly recommend them.

I would recommend Avant Homes to anyone looking to buy a house
Poppy and Leah from clifton were incredibly helpful right from day one. They explained every part of the house‑buying process clearly and simply, and gave great guidance at every stage. Nothing was too much trouble. We always felt well‑supported and knew exactly what was happening next. They were professional, patient and friendly.

100/10 for customer service

We moved into Thistle Meadows three weeks ago, and the team have been brilliant. From Megan in sales and Holly in aftercare to Site Manager Neil and Assistant Site Manager Ian, they couldn’t have been more helpful! We’ve only experienced very minor snagging and everything has been sorted straight away. Special shout outs to Paul Weatherston (who has gone above and beyond) and Andy Jones (who is salt of the earth and amazingly helpful). Thanks to all the Avant team for their help in making the purchase of our first home seamless!

Excellent sales and aftercare

Excellent sales experience and outstanding aftercare. We moved into the Bennerly View Development last October.

From the very start, the sales process was excellent. Sarah and the team were supportive and professional throughout, making the whole experience straightforward and reassuring.

We did encounter a couple of minor issues after the sale, a total of 14 small snags and a leaking shower and a loose sink most recently, but the customer service team were brilliant in handling all of them. Response times were rapid and every problem was resolved fully. The repair team in particular deserve a mention, they are consistently quick, always go above and beyond, and never leave a job until it’s right.

A special thank you to Andrew, who manages the repairs and whose professionalism and dedication really stand out. It’s rare to deal with someone who takes such genuine ownership of getting things sorted.

The one area I’d flag for improvement is the overall time taken to complete the bathroom fix, it did run longer than we’d have liked. That said, the quality of the finished work was excellent, which counts for a great deal.

Overall, a company that clearly values its customers well beyond the point of sale. Would recommend with confidence.

Ruby and Kornelija are absolute stars

From requesting a brochure to appointment to discuss options and viewing properties -they were absolutely amazing. Explained everything in detail, was very open about everything. Showed us different types of houses and part exchange options and incentives that come with it. Definitely worth recommending if you are looking for smooth experience in purchasing new build.

We had an issue with our french doors in Stewart's Quarter, Rosyth. We had a lovely man from the customer care team, Andy Jones, come promptly to complete the job. It was done very quickly and to a great standard. Andy is very personable and professional, I would feel comfortable approaching him for any problems I may need fixed in the property.

Utterly Dreadful Experience

Without a doubt the worst experience of my life. The process and service from Avant is painful, littered with errors and issues throughout.

You can judge a company on the way they deal with issues and thus far, Avant’s approach is to deny culpability and refuse to engage with the customer.

My advice. Look for other developments - don’t put yourself through it with these cowboys.
