Question 1

Can I buy a home in Livermore with just an ITIN?

Accepted Answer

Yes. ITIN loans are designed exactly for this. You don't need a Social Security number — just a valid ITIN and tax history.

Question 2

How much down payment do I need for an ITIN loan?

Accepted Answer

Most lenders require 20–25% down. Higher down payments can also help offset thin credit profiles.

Question 3

Do ITIN loans have higher interest rates?

Accepted Answer

Yes, typically. Non-QM loans carry more lender risk, so rates run higher than conventional loans. Rates vary by borrower profile and market conditions.

Question 4

What if I don't have two years of tax returns?

Accepted Answer

Some lenders accept 12–24 months of bank statements instead. Ask us which lenders allow this option.

Question 5

Is Livermore a good place to buy with an ITIN loan?

Accepted Answer

Livermore is a strong East Bay market. ITIN loans open real homeownership opportunities here — but you need solid down payment funds.

Question 6

Will my immigration status affect my loan approval?

Accepted Answer

ITIN lenders don't check immigration status. They evaluate your ITIN, tax history, income, and down payment.
