Running your first 5K? Hard.

Getting used to your first pair of glasses? An adjustment, for sure.

His first day behind the wheel? Little bumpy.

Your first time as a parent, or your first day caring for one? Never easy.

Progressive understands first times can be challenging. Especially buying your first home. It's why we created the UpPayment® program — down payment assistance for first-time homebuyers. Because first times are easier with a little help.

Increasing access for homebuyers

For so many, buying a first home has gotten further out of reach. Affordable homes are limited, interest rates remain high, and — according to Harvard University's Joint Center for Housing Studies — home prices have jumped 60% since 2019.

Through the Open the House Initiative, Progressive is committed to giving people the tools and knowledge to buy a home, sustain a home, and build wealth along the way. It's all part of our mission to open doors for future homeowners and strengthen communities.

Since 2024, we've contributed over $16M

Our investments are helping more families purchase and keep their homes, building a lasting legacy through homeownership. We've teamed up with housing organizations across the country to make a real impact — and we're committed to helping even more aspiring homeowners achieve their dreams of homeownership.
