About Homes by Hostetler

"Twas a dark and stormy night." Actually it was a stormy Sunday noon in Huntington Beach in March 1993 when Jack suggested that he would build a roaring fire in the fireplace if Ann would fix an in-house picnic. And they would spend two hours in front of the fire with the picnic, an atlas and The Places Rated Almanac deciding where they wanted to live and work. Several hours and a bottle of wine later, they had narrowed the continental US down to Colorado, Utah, Arizona and New Mexico, all places where they loved to vacation. In June a visit to Albuquerque and Santa Fe confirmed Jack's choice. As they returned from Santa Fe one afternoon, rather than turn right at Exit 242, Jack said "I wonder what's up this way to the left?" A move to New Mexico followed in September 1993. In February 1995, Jack built his first New Mexico spec house in Ranchos de Placitas on Cienega Canyon Road, which seemed a small start after his building over 800 homes in Southern California. Ironically, on September 11, 1997, Jack and Ann moved into "The House that Jack Built" in West Trails, four years to the month after they had settled in Albuquerque. Jack's company specializes in custom home construction with emphases on Southwestern architectural style; he is a design/ build contractor. Jack has been in the home building industry for 29 years and builds between 6-10 homes per year. We are both pleased and honored to have received the following awards as a participant in the annual Placitas Home Tour:

1999 "Best Home Award"
