EL PASO HOMES

El Paso Homes is constructing a new headquarters facility at 5135 Chromite Street in El Paso. The project involves the new construction of a 1,745 sq ft building designed to serve as the operational base for El Paso Home LLC. The total estimated cost for this development is $350,000, which calculates to $201 per square foot. This private development is situated on privately owned land for private use, distinct from public or multifamily residential projects.

Project Scope and Design

The architectural design for the headquarters was prepared by Vista DEL SOL Architectural Design. This firm has a documented history of working in the El Paso area, with six other TDLR-registered projects totaling $1,387,200. These include various commercial and residential developments such as Sharp Cuts, 907 Chelsea, and a parking garage project. The specific scope of work for this filing describes the building of the headquarters, with no additional renovation or expansion details provided in the record.

Construction is scheduled to begin in October 2026, following the project registration with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) in September 2026. The filing indicates a planned completion date targeted for October 2027. This results in a scheduled build window of 365 days. While the estimated cost of $350,000 is below the El Paso County median of $800,000 for similar new construction filings, the per-square-foot cost of $201 is above the county median of $111. The longer build window compared to the county median of 214 days reflects the specific timeline outlined in the registration documents.
