Send me an email and we can discuss this. You might not have to pay all cash, even though your fico is low, some lenders consider the fact that you almost have do debt. Let me know if I could help. What state are you in?

You should be able to do a number of things. Your cash provides
leverage in that you can get a better price or have such a large down
payment the lender will nor care. In the extreme you can do hard
money loans.
So, talk to some people before you jump. You certainly can work a
better deal then all cash unless the seller is providing a large discount
for all cash (and then you would refinance after the fact so you can re-
use the cash).
