How does someone with piss poor credit get an 875,000.00 home? I'm just wondering because there is this guy at work who claims he bought this house but he also says his credit is really bad. I know when he first started working here three months ago, he was on the phone all the time with some guy trying to get the guy to quick claim the house to him. Apparently he did but how does this work? Now he says he owns the home and this transaction took about 3 weeks tops. I'm confused here.
