What city would be good to move to?

Posted by Real Estate Investor on Apr 30 | Real Estate Investing Chatter

I will be graduating in less then two years from nursing school.
My fiancee is graduating from culinary in less than a year.
We are trying to decide where to move once we have our degrees.
We currently live in Atlanta,
We were set on moving to Orlando because its far but not THAT far however I do not think we will be able to stand the heat.
I was also debating Charleston, South Carolina.
Any Suggestions on what city would be good to start our new lives together???, more

and $8000 tax credit for first time home buyers? Purchasing my first house.
My Husband and I filed jointly on our taxes this year. However, he will not be ANYWHERE on the loan (because his debt to income ratio is too high and will make our interest rate go higher).
However, I noticed that the cut-off for a single person to get the 8000 bucks in 75,000 a year income- I make more than that. My husband only makes about 10,000 a year though, and the cut-off for married couples is 150K.
My question is this:
Do we BOTH have to be on the loan to consider our income under the 150,000 for married couples in order to get the $8000? OR, can we get it even if he’s NOT on the loan, but we filed jointly?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
