Mortgage rates in Hobbs change with the market every day, so working with a local broker who monitors pricing daily matters.

Hobbs median listing prices were around $326,000, with recent median sold pricing typically between $240,000 and $304,500. Many financed purchases land in roughly the $240,000 to $320,000 range depending on condition, location, and property type.
Buyers in Hobbs include local workforce households, energy-sector employees, and buyers seeking more affordable housing than larger New Mexico cities. Because many borrowers are self-employed or commission-based, matching the file to the right lender matters. The market tends to move quickly, with homes going under contract fast.
Recent New Mexico 30-year fixed rates were around 6.45%, while 15-year fixed rates were around 5.81%. At current Hobbs price levels, most purchases remain within conforming loan limits, so the main focus is balancing rate, closing costs, and mortgage insurance.
A lot of Permian Basin income doesn't fit a standard W-2 box - business owners, 1099 contractors, commission, and variable oilfield pay. One bank may say no simply because the file doesn't match its overlay.
As a broker, PSd Mortgage matches your income documentation to the lender most comfortable with it - including bank-statement and alternative-documentation programs alongside conventional, FHA, and VA.
The most popular option in Hobbs for long-term payment stability and easier qualifying.
Pay the home off faster and save on interest - great for strong-income buyers.
Lower down payment and flexible guidelines for first-time or returning buyers.
For eligible veterans and service members - often with no down payment.

Overall, Van has been amazing to work with! She made my first time home buying experience an excellent one! She walked with me though the process, and was always quick to respond. At the end of the day, she coordinated with different lenders, and got me an amazing rate. I could not have picked a better partner to work with! Van has been a huge blessing from the Lord!
Van from PSd Mortgage is amazing to work with. Her persistence with the lender and realtor team enabled us to close early. We highly recommend Van and PSd Mortgage.
Van is INCREDIBLE! She is on top of her game and will always go ABOVE & beyond for her clients. I had a house deal fall apart 4 days before closing, she was the only one in my corner fighting for me.

Van Sturgeon is a miracle worker! She guided me through every step of the mortgage process, and was ALWAYS available whether by email, text or phone. She knew exactly what was needed, was extremely patient, and found an excellent loan at excellent rates for my new home purchase! The contract almost fell through 5 days before closing because of the appraisal valuation, but Van was steadfast about what needed to be done to make it work. I closed on my beautiful home yesterday, and it went without a hitch. Thank you so much, Van! You made all my dreams come true. I highly recommend Van Sturgeon to anyone seeking a home loan.
Working with Van made refinancing very easy. I had a lot of questions that were answered honestly. I wish more lenders had these ethics. I chose PSD after shopping many other lenders, and it was a great choice. I highly recommend Van and her company and will return for future needs.
