Since the earliest online report (2013)
Compares the 2013 report with the 2025 report, using the same method for both. He took office in 2009. The House's online database has his electronic reports from 2013 on, so we can't show his wealth when he first took office. Changes can come from a spouse’s assets, market moves, property values, new debts or how filers choose bands, and the forms do not say which. We do not guess.
What the latest report lists
| Ranch (Calaveras County, CA), joint | $1M–$5M |

| Bank of America Account, joint | $100K–$250K |
| Grupe Squaw Valley LLC (Stockton, San Joaquin, CA), spouse | $100K–$250K |
| Debts | none counted |

Where the money comes from
Main sources named in the disclosures and the reporting we cite. The forms don’t split the total into exact amounts, so we don’t show percentages.
John Garamendi reported household assets minus debts of $1.65M to $6.53M, a midpoint of about $4.09M, on his latest financial disclosure (2025 annual report, filed July 22, 2026).
John Garamendi has represented a Northern California House district since 2009. He is a businessman and a member of the Democratic Party. His district has included communities between San Francisco and Sacramento such as Fairfield and Vacaville.
He served in the California State Assembly and State Senate, was California insurance commissioner from 1991 to 1995 and again from 2003 to 2007, U.S. Deputy Secretary of the Interior from 1995 to 1998, and lieutenant governor of California from 2007 until he won a special election to the U.S. House in 2009.
What his 2025 disclosure shows
The report he filed on July 22, 2026 covers 2025. It lists 11 assets with a value, adding up to $1.6 million to $6.5 million. The largest are Ranch (Calaveras County, CA) (joint, $1M–$5M); Wells Fargo Bank Account (joint, $250K–$500K) and Bank of America Account (joint, $100K–$250K). Another three items are listed with no value or an undetermined value, such as a pension, so they are not counted.
The report lists no debts that we count, so the range of $1.6 million to $6.5 million comes from the assets alone, with a midpoint of about $4.1 million. It also lists a mortgage on a home the report does not list as an asset. As on all our House profiles, we leave that debt out because the home's value is not counted either.
How the range has changed
Using the same method for every year, the midpoint of his disclosed range went from about $7.5 million on his 2013 report to about $4.1 million on his 2025 report. The highest midpoint was about $8.1 million, on the 2015 report. The chart shows 13 reports from 2013 to 2025, each added up the same way, and nothing is filled in between them.
These are ranges built from the value bands on each form, not exact values. They move with market prices, property values, new or paid-off debts and the bands a filer picks, and the forms do not say which of these caused a change. Like every member of Congress, Garamendi does not have to report a home he lives in, cars and personal belongings, or federal retirement savings such as the Thrift Savings Plan, so his real net worth could be higher than these forms show.
