Can I buy a house with just an ITIN?

Yes. An ITIN, an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number, is enough to buy a home through this program. You don't need a Social Security number, and you don't need a long U.S. credit history. What you need is steady income, a down payment, and a home you want to live in.

Some banks offer ITIN mortgages, but they usually want two years of U.S. tax returns, a credit history built here, and a higher rate. Many families who have been working and saving for years still get told no. Owner financing skips the bank entirely.

What we look at instead

We look at three things. Your income: pay stubs, bank statements or tax returns filed with your ITIN all work. Your down payment: normally 20 percent of the price we negotiate, with exceptions reviewed one by one. And your stability: how long you've been working and living here, and whether the payment fits comfortably.

We also run a background check as part of qualifying. A thin or missing credit file isn't held against you.

Documents to have ready

A valid passport or government ID, your ITIN letter, recent bank statements, proof of income such as pay stubs, tax returns or 1099s, and proof of your down payment funds. If your savings are in cash, start depositing them into a bank account now, so the money shows up on statements before you buy.

Is the home really mine?

Yes. You close with a title company or closing attorney, and the deed is recorded in your name. Your immigration status isn't printed on a deed. You are the legal owner, you can sell or refinance later, and the home can pass to your family.

Building credit while you own

Many ITIN buyers have no U.S. credit file at all. Owning a home and paying on time is a strong start. Pair it with a secured credit card or a credit-builder loan from your bank, and in a year or two you may qualify for an ITIN mortgage that pays off the note at a lower rate.

How it works for you, start to finish.

Three steps from first call to keys, built around your situation.

  1. Talk through your documents

    Bring your ITIN letter, ID and bank statements. Freddy confirms what counts as income and how much you've saved.

  2. Get your letter and pick a home

    With a qualification letter good for 12 months, choose three homes. We negotiate for you.

  3. Close with your name on the deed

    A title company or attorney records the deed in your name. Your ITIN is all you need to own it.
