This would have been in like 2004 or 2005 so most likely the house appreciated enough at that time that they actually did sell the house in the end and didn't lose money. Haven't talked to him for years but wow crazy.
Same here I have a friend who may have been involved in something like this too. I'm hoping that the houses appreciated and they sold, and that he didn't get caught up in it when the markets went south.
