Homes and Gillis & Company. In 1988, the two companies merged to become FaxonGillis Homes. Today
FaxonGillis builds world class homes in well located neighborhoods throughout the greater Memphis area
and North Mississippi.
AVID Ratings and FaxonGillis began their partnership in 1996 when AVID Ratings, a full-service, customer

AVID Ratings maintains the largest homebuyer survey database in the home building industry, and serves
over 400 companies throughout the United States and Canada.
