ITIN Loans in Jackson
Jackson's housing market serves a diverse community, including self-employed contractors and small business owners who file taxes with an ITIN. Many of these borrowers have strong income and savings but can't access conventional mortgages.
ITIN loans fill that gap. You don't need citizenship or legal residency to qualify. Lenders focus on your ability to pay, not your immigration status.
Most ITIN lenders in California require 15-20% down, though some accept 10% for strong borrowers. Credit scores typically start at 620, but some programs go to 580 with compensating factors.
You'll need 12-24 months of ITIN tax returns or bank statements proving consistent income. Reserves matter more here—expect to show 6-12 months of mortgage payments in savings after closing.
About 30 of our 200+ wholesale lenders offer ITIN programs. Each has different overlays—some accept only tax returns, others prefer bank statements, a few allow both.
Rates run 0.5-1.5% higher than conventional loans because these are portfolio products. The lender holds the risk instead of selling to Fannie or Freddie. Shopping across multiple lenders typically saves borrowers half a point or more.
Most ITIN borrowers I work with in Amador County run construction crews, landscaping businesses, or provide professional services. They have strong income but complex documentation.
The mistake I see most: waiting until you've found a house to organize your tax returns and bank statements. Get your documentation reviewed before you start shopping. ITIN loans take 45-60 days to close, not 30.
If you have an ITIN but irregular deposits, Bank Statement Loans work better. They use 12-24 months of business account activity instead of tax returns, capturing income that doesn't show on your 1040.
Foreign National Loans suit buyers who live abroad and want U.S. property. Asset Depletion Loans help if you have significant savings but low documented income. Each program has trade-offs in rates and down payments.
Jackson's market moves slower than metro areas, which works in your favor. Sellers here often accept 60-day closings when buyers come pre-approved with strong deposits.
Property types matter for ITIN loans. Single-family homes and condos get approved easily. Rural properties on large lots sometimes trigger additional requirements. Mixed-use buildings where you live upstairs and run a business downstairs need special structuring.
Some lenders accept bank statements instead of tax returns, typically requiring 12-24 months of consistent deposits. Rates run slightly higher than tax return programs.
Most ITIN loans include a 1-3 year prepayment penalty to offset the lender's portfolio risk. You can refinance after the penalty period ends without extra cost.
ITIN lenders typically go up to $3 million in California. Jackson's price points fit comfortably within standard ITIN loan limits.
Most ITIN lenders require all down payment funds to come from your own accounts, seasoned for 60 days. Gift funds are rarely accepted on these programs.
You need at least two years of tax filing history with your ITIN. New ITIN holders should wait until they have two years of returns filed.
