There's no law that requires you to rent or buy property under your own name. You can form an anonymous LLC/shell company and rent or buy in the company's name. In S03, Nick bought a plot of land out in the woods using a different name through a realtor friend of Juliette's, so he probably just used whatever he set up to do that to acquire the fome. He could have bought it if he'd managed to get a couple of million for the house or had that much in the bank, but he could get moved in a lot faster and for less if he just rented it.
