HAKES BROTHERS | LAS CRUCES

Growing up with a hands-on love for residential construction, the Hakes Brothers developed a deep-rooted respect for the craft, the design process, and the hardworking people who bring a vision to life. In 2006, they combined their unique skills with a simple but ambitious goal: to raise the bar for homebuilding in Las Cruces.

While they started in the world of high-end luxury custom homes, the brothers soon realized they wanted to make that same “designer feel” accessible to more people. By transitioning to semi-custom homes, they are able to offer professional architecture, innovative design, and custom amenities at prices that truly make sense for modern families.

At Hakes Brothers, they don’t just build houses; they create the backdrop for your life’s best moments. They’re passionate about high-quality construction and even more passionate about seeing their “family of customers” thrive.
