What Avanton does

Avanton Limited is a privately-held London-focused property developer founded by Omer Weinberger and headquartered at 6th Floor, Brock House, 19 Langham Street, London. The company designs, develops and markets residential and mixed-use schemes across prime London locations under an occupier-led design approach, with a reported portfolio of £3.15 billion in total project value spanning 11 projects and 3,885 homes. Its three flagship developments are THE BeCa in Southwark (170 private homes plus 64 social rented units and ground-floor commercial, £160m GDV, designed by Farrells), Steel Works in Battersea (31,512 sq ft across three commercial/industrial units, designed by Boehm Lynas Architects), and Manor Road in Richmond (453 homes including 173 affordable, designed by PLP Architecture, targeting BREEAM Excellent).

The business generates revenue through three streams: one-off residential property sales (primary), transaction-based commercial property sales and leasing (secondary), and asset management services including Group P&L oversight, stakeholder engagement, finance and investor relations. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; sales are conducted via direct enquiries, project microsites and on-site marketing suites rather than third-party agents. Distribution is direct and domestic, targeting affluent residential buyers in personae segments, B2C commercial tenants, and institutional social housing providers. Strategic assets include a flagship 20-year partnership with Southwark Council for the Old Kent Road / Ruby Triangle regeneration, delivery partnerships with HG Construction and tier-one architectural firms, and Consumer Code for New Homes accreditation.

The firm employs 11–50 staff across functions including development, asset management, investment analysis, sales, marketing and operations. Approximately 1,000 homes have been delivered historically with a stated pipeline of around 3,000 more, leadership signalling a multi-year build-out phase. No venture capital, private equity or public market investors have been disclosed; ownership remains founder-controlled.
