sheba0954 is on a distinguished road
I lived in Hobbs for 15 years and still have property there. Hobbs is a small town and the only reason it is growing now is due to the nuclear plant being built in Eunice (20 miles down the road). Yes they built a prison and a stadium there which still did not helf the town because of the housing situation. The homes there now are family owned that are boarded up due to relative or renter abuse. Some people are now deciding not to keep holding on to the property but are skeptical of renters however we do have a 3 bedroom 1 bath that needs repairs that we do want to keep and would be willing to allow rent free or a small fee if the renters does the repairs. After that renting, buying, leasing, sellling are all optional. Before you take any of these other comments to heart go to Google Earth and look at the street view of the the city that will give you a good view. Also go to the City Attorney's Condemned property list (city is doing now to acquire land to build for newcomers) and the city liens (done for mowing your yard) for addresses for places that might be available. Both list the names of the owners and/or contact person. Housing is going to be a problem in Hobbs, Eunice, Monument, Lovington and all the surrounding areas until something new is built so if you have to move soon look for the vacant property and most owners would rather have someone in them than not.

We too are relocating the the Hobbs area and are in need of a rental home for about a year - I've read this thread and emailed the Chamber and Pm one of the members here - any other suggestion - I'll be there within the next 2 weeks starting the project and my wife will follow when we find a house.

I was considering relocating to Hobbs, but if there are no homes for rent I may reconsider. Are Roswell and Carlsbad too far to commute? Seems they have many more rental properties available.
