    ITIN Borrowers: Can You Get a Real Estate Loan in Texas?

    Yes — and here's exactly how it works

    If you file taxes in the U.S. with an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) and a bank told you no — they were wrong to imply you can't be financed. You can. A private lender just looks at the file differently.

    What an ITIN Loan Actually Is

    An ITIN loan is real estate financing for borrowers who use an ITIN instead of a Social Security number. With a private investor-funded lender, the loan is secured by the property — your ITIN is just part of the identification, not the basis for approval.

    What You'll Typically Need

    • Valid ITIN letter from the IRS
    • Government-issued photo ID (Matrícula Consular, passport, or driver's license)
    • Proof of income (tax returns filed under your ITIN, W-2s, 1099s, or bank statements)
    • Source of down payment funds
    • Property contract or address
