Home › Answers › How do I buy a car without a Social Security number in Fort Lauderdale?
You can buy and finance a car in Fort Lauderdale without an SSN. Lenders in our network accept an ITIN, and some accept a passport or foreign ID along with proof of income and a local address. The key is applying through a broker who already knows which lenders approve these deals — otherwise you'll bounce from dealer to dealer collecting denials. Elite Edge Auto Broker submits your file directly to the right lenders, negotiates the price and rate, and gets you approved, often with little or no money down. It's the same smooth process as anyone else: pick your budget and vehicle type, we do the shopping, you drive off.
