With a funky vibe and an economic growth spurt that appears to defy all odds, one doesn’t need to be a rocket scientist to understand why Austin has been chosen the number-one, best city to live in by Kiplinger, as reported in a recent article, the Best Cities to Live in 2010.

While most major markets in the U.S. have showed a decline in workers hired over the past five years, Austin has actually added 99,200 jobs from 2004-2009, a %16 increase. It’s no wonder some of the most highly recognized corporations in the country have moved to the area, Facebook, among them, recently announced they’re hiring 200 people.

A dramatic difference in your debt-to-income ration from when your credit was first checked could make your mortgage deal turn sour. Marc Savitt, president of the National Assn. of Independent Housing Professionals and a mortgage broker in Martinsburg, W.Va., says it’s not an uncommon scenario. “Most often the new debt involves furniture or other goods for the house,” Savitt said. “However, we have seen debt for new cars and other major purchases.”
