Mortgages for recipients of ITIN or alternative SS require specific documentation for each case allowing access to housing.
Home Loans for ITIN recipients are now a reality. This program geared towards financing for undocumented borrowers living and working in the US with either an ITIN or an alternative SS used to report employee wages.
The ITIN Program serves two large groups. The first group would be those applicants with ITIN who are self-employed and use their ITIN to report income earned to the IRS with or without credit. The second group would be those applicants with an alternative SS in addition to their ITINs used to become wage earners through regular employment and to receive a W-2 at the end of the year.
For those applicants without credit, Clear Lending will help applicants establish credit through non-traditional trade lines such as car insurance, utilities, or even store financed payment experience. The idea is to provide our investors, the applicant has enough payment experience demonstrating ability and intention to repay loans and debts over at least 12 or 24 month period.
Homebuyers going through a home loan application process are analyzed through several variables that will show not only their creditworthiness and ability to repay but also their chances to default on the loan application. The following variables to consider:
- Credit: Credit reports show all creditors' payment history and balance information reported to Equifax, Experian, and Transunion. These rating companies rank individuals' creditworthiness through a scoring system ranging from 300 to 850. The lower the worsen and the higher, the better the credit rating. Most banks and lending companies will not consider anyone with less than 640 scores. Clear Lending can help applicants with 500 scores. The level of outstanding debt showing on the credit reports will play an essential role in determining how much more applicants can get further in debt before personal finances collapse.
- Employment: Employment is another critical variable considered when making a credit decision. Employment history is closely related to the applicants' ability to earn wages and thus to pay current bills plus new proposed debt such as a home loan. Income earnt is why employment history is verified for at least the previous two years from application.
- Income: With little or no debts, it is recommended a minimum of $80,000/year per person OR amongst all household family memebers. Analysis of the applicants' pay rate is fundamental to determine their most regular and constant earnings month after month. An increasing income trend will indicate home loan buyers can handle new proposed debt.
- Assets: For ITIN applicants trying to become homeowners, how much money they have saved is probably the most crucial variable. Without the right amount of savings, an application cannot proceed. The percentage needed for a down payment will depend on the complete scenario. For each applicant scenario, a different variable may allow smaller down payment starting with 15% (minimum $35,000) or higher for those applicants with riskier credit profiles.
