Local context in Clovis

What the county figure means here.

A borrower with full VA entitlement does not have a VA loan limit, subject to lender approval, ability to repay, and the appraised value or purchase price. The FHFA one-unit county conforming loan limit matters primarily when calculating remaining bonus entitlement for a borrower who does not have full entitlement, and it may affect whether a down payment is required.

Curry County carries a $832,750 one-unit conforming loan limit value for 2026, and that is the county figure we reference for Clovis. County reference, not an address-based lookup. Confirm the county of the property before using this value; city and metro boundaries can cross counties. Whichever county your property is in, the value is used in remaining-entitlement calculations — including on a 2–4 unit property — and is not a cap on what a fully-entitled buyer can finance.

Clovis permits: contractors need city registration and a posted permit

The City of Clovis Building Safety Department reminded contractors in June 2023 that they must register their business with the City before working within city limits. To get a permit, a contractor needs a valid business registration and a New Mexico contractor's license. Permits must be posted where inspectors can see them, and inspectors can issue stop-work orders.

Permits are issued at the Building Safety Department on Mitchell Street, and the City urged homeowners to confirm contractors are licensed. Practical step: before closing on a Clovis home with recent work, check the contractor's license and ask Building Safety whether the permit was finaled. Business registration is obtained at City Hall on N. Connelly Street. The City said building inspectors would actively patrol for compliance.

Curry County: four school and tax districts, and taxable value at one-third

The Curry County Assessor's Office says the county has four school and tax districts, Clovis, Texico, Melrose and Grady, and that the office prepares the tax roll for the County Treasurer. Under New Mexico law, a property's taxable value is 33.33% of its appraised value minus applicable exemptions.

The office lists an exemption specialist and a deeds specialist, and offers an online mailing-address change for value notices and tax bills. Practical step: confirm which district a property is in, since that affects the tax rate, and update your address after closing. The Assessor is required by state law to discover, list and value all property in the county.
