How to read this: members of Congress report each asset and debt in a value band (for example, $1,001 to $15,000), not an exact amount. We add up the low ends and the high ends, then subtract debts the same way, to get the widest possible range. The midpoint is simply the middle of that range, not a measured value. The forms do not include a home the official lives in (unless it earns rent), cars and personal belongings, or federal retirement savings such as the Thrift Savings Plan, so true net worth can be higher.

Compares the 2019 report with the 2025 report, using the same method for both. He took office in 2007. The House's online database has his electronic reports from 2019 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.

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.

Vern Buchanan reported household assets minus debts of $105.6M to more than $381M, on his latest financial disclosure (2025 annual report, filed May 14, 2026).

Vern Buchanan has served in the U.S. House since 2007, first for Florida's 13th district and, since 2013, for the 16th district, which is anchored by Bradenton. He sits on the Ways and Means Committee, which handles tax policy, trade, health care and Social Security.

Before Congress he spent more than 30 years in business and chaired both the Greater Sarasota Chamber of Commerce and the Florida Chamber of Commerce. He is an Air Force National Guard veteran. In January 2026 he announced he would not run for reelection.

What his 2025 disclosure shows

The report he filed on May 14, 2026 covers 2025. It lists 65 assets with a value, adding up to $135.6 million to more than $387 million. One of them is listed only as over $1 million, a band the disclosure form allows for a spouse's holdings, so there is no upper limit for it. The largest are Buchanan Automotive Holdings, Inc: Sarasota 500, LLC (over $50M); Aircraft Holding & Leasing, LLC ($25M–$50M) and 1099 Management Company, LLC: 600, LC ($5M–$25M). Another 13 items are listed with no value or an undetermined value, such as a pension, so they are not counted.

On the debt side, the report lists two debts adding up to $6 million to $30 million. The largest is a BMO Harris Bank loan (06/2023 payoff of a 12/2021 BMO Harris loan), in the $5M–$25M band. Subtracting debts the same way gives a range of $105.6 million to more than $381 million.

How the range has changed

Using the same method for every year, the low end of his disclosed range went from $40 million on his 2019 report to $105.6 million on his 2025 report. Some reports list holdings with no upper limit, so we compare the low ends rather than midpoints. The chart shows seven reports from 2019 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, Buchanan 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.
