JPMorgan Chase announced on August 3, 2026, its intention to deploy over $750 billion through 2035 to increase housing supply and support homeownership in the United States. This represents a nearly 40% increase in housing capital deployment compared to the past decade. The plan includes financing for 1 million affordable housing units and helping 500,000 homebuyers, with 200,000 being first-time buyers. The bank will increase mortgage lending by over 40% and hire 850 additional home lending advisors. The initiative is part of the American Dream Initiative and includes specific projects in United States — San Francisco, such as $200 million for a 342-unit residential building and a $15 million equity investment in Fifth Space's Essential Housing Fund. JPMorgan Chase will also chair the United States Chamber of Commerce's Housing Advisory Council and support the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act. The announcement comes amid a national housing shortage and affordability crisis, with the National Association of Realtors reporting a record median age for first-time homebuyers.
