Trump's 50-Year Mortgage: Madness or Masterstroke?

(Dreamstime)

By    |   Wednesday, 19 November 2025 07:20 AM EST

President Donald Trump's administration is proposing a new 50-year mortgage, which could be the boldest change in American housing finance since Franklin D. Roosevelt introduced the 30-year mortgage during the Great Depression.

Bill Pulte, Federal Housing Finance Agency Director, called it a "complete game changer" for homebuyers, arguing that spreading payments over five decades could make homes more affordable for younger Americans priced out of today's market.
