not very smart

I am going to assume the home is going to be in your name and your boyfriend is only going to act as a co-signor for you. If that is the case the property would not be part of his assets.
If this is not the case, then that could be a problem. However, trying to hide the transaction would not be smart and could create more problems than it solves.
Good Luck
