Boosting Housing Supply through Small Businesses Act of 2026

This bill directs the Small Business Administration and the Department of Housing and Urban Development to work together to help small businesses in the housing industry, such as homebuilders, contractors, and property managers. The agencies must create a joint plan within 180 days to identify gaps in financial and technical assistance and propose ways to expand access to loans and support services for these businesses. The plan must also include strategies for better information sharing, joint training programs, and support for housing startups and innovative products. Additionally, the agencies are required to engage with state and local governments, community organizations, and other resource partners to develop these initiatives. The legislation aims to address housing shortages by strengthening the capacity of small businesses that contribute to housing supply and affordability.
