Who it's for

Borrowers with an ITIN, steady income, and two years of U.S. tax returns.

How it works

  1. ITIN loans are offered by specialty investors, not the government programs, so guidelines and pricing vary.
  2. Expect a larger down payment than FHA and a full look at income, credit, and rental history.
  3. We work in English or Spanish, and we'll explain every document before you sign it.

What you'll need

  • ITIN card or IRS letter
  • Two years of tax returns
  • Government-issued photo ID (passport, matrícula consular, or driver's license)
  • Proof of income and 12 months of housing payment history

Common questions

Is this legal?

Yes. Lending to ITIN holders is legal nationwide. The programs are simply offered by fewer lenders.

Can a co-borrower with a Social Security number help?

Yes; mixed-status households are common and many programs allow it.
