HOBBS HOUSING NM ELEVEN DEDUPLICATED RENTAL LEADS — HOBBS. The supplied “subsided-rental-properties” URL is a typo and does NOT expose the Hobbs directory; the working https://survey.housingnm.org/renters/subsidized-rental-properties#Hobbs lists FOUR names: Four Seasons, Hobbs Apartments, The Cedars and Washington Place. All four also appear under names/aliases in the ELEVEN-entry https://survey.housingnm.org/renters/affordable-rental-properties#Hobbs. Deduplicate to ELEVEN Hobbs leads, not fifteen. Housing NM itself says the listings mix housing authorities, nonprofits, companies and private owners; they do not establish ownership by a Hobbs authority. Four Seasons has two conflicting directory streets (2405 N Jefferson vs 4301 Morris NE), but the https://www.monarchnm.com/property/four-seasons/ operator page corroborates 2405 N Jefferson and gives a different direct phone. La Pradera has an unresolved 1023-versus-805 E Glorietta address conflict and is NOT pinned. 1. Avalon Cove Apartments (affordable directory) — 1200 E Broadway, Hobbs, NM 88240; contact 575-393-1475. Housing New Mexico affordable-directory lead only. No unit count, current rent, manager identity, active opening or property-level screening result was confirmed. Source https://survey.housingnm.org/renters/affordable-rental-properties#Hobbs 2. The Cedars (Casa De Camino Alto) (both directories; one site) — 501 W Alto Dr, Hobbs, NM 88240; contact 575-397-6338. The subsidized list calls this “The Cedars”; the affordable list calls the SAME address and phone “The Cedars (Casa De Camino Alto).” These are aliases for one lead, not two buildings proven to have separate entrances. Ask the operator about current leasing and eligibility. Source https://survey.housingnm.org/renters/subsidized-rental-properties#Hobbs and https://survey.housingnm.org/renters/affordable-rental-properties#Hobbs 3. Four Seasons Apartments (both directories; one site) — 2405 N Jefferson St (operator and subsidized directory); affordable directory instead says 4301 Morris NE, Hobbs, NM 88240; contact 575-964-1634. The subsidized directory says 2405 N Jefferson St and 575-392-6243; the affordable directory says 4301 Morris NE with the SAME directory phone. Current property manager Monarch's https://www.monarchnm.com/property/four-seasons/ page independently identifies its Hobbs Four Seasons at 2405 N Jefferson and lists 575-964-1634, affordable housing, one- to three-bedroom plans and laundry. The operator corroborates the Jefferson street for this record; the Morris entry remains an unresolved directory error or different-location claim, NOT a second confirmed apartment. Use the operator contact and verify before visiting. No live vacancy or current rent was confirmed.

Hobbs Apartments (both directories; one site) — 2001 E Clinton St, Hobbs, NM 88240; contact 575-393-2523. Both directories give the same address/phone. Monarch's https://www.monarchnm.com/property/hobbs page describes its “Hobbs” community at this address, phone 575-393-2523, with one- to four-bedroom plans, laundry, playground and a community room. This ONE rental is not evidence that a separate municipal housing authority operates it. No live openings or criminal-screening rules were established.

La Pradera Apartments (affordable directory) — Housing NM: 1023 E Glorietta Drive; Tierra Realty project page: 805 E Glorietta; Hobbs, NM 88240; contact 575-392-0038. https://survey.housingnm.org/renters/affordable-rental-properties#Hobbs lists 1023 E Glorietta Drive and 575-392-0038. The https://tierrarealty.com/la-pradera project page instead locates La Pradera at 805 E Glorietta and describes a 60-unit affordable family development built in 2011. These claims may refer to different entrances or a directory error; neither source identifies the correct current leasing entrance for every home. Do not pin one address or double-count the site. Sixty existing units are not sixty vacancies; call the operator before using either street number.

Park Place Apartments (affordable directory) — 920 E Michigan Drive, Hobbs, NM 88240; contact 575-397-2195. The affordable directory gives this single Hobbs address and contact; no verified occupancy, current rent, application status or site-specific screening rule was available. Source https://survey.housingnm.org/renters/affordable-rental-properties#Hobbs 7. Parkside Terrace (affordable directory) — 300 E White St, Hobbs, NM 88240; contact 575-408-8851. https://www.monarchnm.com/property/parkside-terrace/ independently corroborates the Housing NM address/phone and describes one- to three-bedroom plans, a laundry facility, fitness center, playground and basketball court. Its separate marketing site's move-in banner is not evidence of a particular affordable unit or approved applicant; confirm current program rents and openings with the manager.

Playa Escondida (affordable directory) — 1021 E Yeso Dr, Hobbs, NM 88240; contact 575-393-9646. Housing NM affordable-directory lead only.

New Leaf (affordable directory) — 1601 E Marland St, Hobbs, NM 88240; contact 575-964-1571. Monarch's https://www.monarchnm.com/property/new-leaf page calls this “New Leaf Community,” confirms the address and phone, and lists one- to three-bedroom plans, laundry, playground, washer/dryer hookups and a business center. The directory's shorter name is an alias, not a second property; no vacancy or screening approval is established. Source https://survey.housingnm.org/renters/affordable-rental-properties#Hobbs and https://www.monarchnm.com/property/new-leaf 10. Washington Place Apartments (both directories; one site) — 1405 E Marland St, Hobbs, NM 88240; contact 575-397-4341. The subsidized list calls this “Washington Place Apartments” and the affordable list “Washington Place,” both at the SAME address and phone. Monarch's https://www.monarchnm.com/property/washington-place/ page corroborates the location/contact, describes one- to four-bedroom plans and 24/7 emergency maintenance. This is one record, with no verified current opening. Source https://survey.housingnm.org/renters/subsidized-rental-properties#Hobbs and https://survey.housingnm.org/renters/affordable-rental-properties#Hobbs and https://www.monarchnm.com/property/washington-place/ 11. Willow Bend Villas (affordable directory) — 1000 N Marland Blvd, Hobbs, NM 88240; contact 575-397-0940. Housing NM affordable-directory lead. It is not New Leaf or Washington Place on E Marland Street. Confirm the operator, rent, income tier, openings and written screening before applying. Source https://survey.housingnm.org/renters/affordable-rental-properties#Hobbs Regional housing assistance versus individual landlords: https://m.housingnm.org/community_development/regional-housing-authorities says EASTERN Regional Housing Authority's service region includes Lea County and identifies its office at 106 E Reed St, Roswell, NM, phone 575-622-0881. A regional SERVICE AREA does not prove this authority owns or manages the Hobbs apartment leads. No independently verified municipal “Hobbs Housing Authority” site roster or currently open program waitlist was found in these materials. Ask the regional agency about Lea County public housing or voucher application routes, current list status and its own residential property roster; call the individually listed operators about their separate rentals. The Roswell office is NOT a Hobbs apartment entrance. Screening and source limitations: https://survey.housingnm.org/renters/subsidized-rental-properties#Hobbs describes subsidized housing whose tenant-paid rent may be income-based, and says application/screening FEES are prohibited for properties covered by its subsidized guidance; do not generalize that fee claim to the affordable-only entries. https://survey.housingnm.org/renters/affordable-rental-properties#Hobbs covers income-restricted rentals with separate criteria and managers. Both directories say operators may consider household size, credit, rental history, income and background checks. An appearance here, a manager's published number of units or an old advertising badge does NOT establish a live vacancy or whether an applicant with a specific conviction would qualify. Confirm today's income limits, rents, availability, fee policy and written screening directly. Reviewed September 29, 2026.
