Knoxville seems to have some material damage, just have not heard all details yet.

As for how they know they’re getting a good deal, some of these sites that allow you to list your tradelines and match you up with renters/borrowers (or however you wanna refer to them) will list out the details of the tradeline that matter such as how long the credit line’s been open, the credit limit, balance on the card and your credit score.

Can you give specific details on numbers? 

Not an uncommon situation, and depending on the exact details there are still some community lending incentives you could have as a first-time borrower to help with the costs. 

I would connect with a realtor and have them do a market analysis for you
