Home price gains are slowing, credit is thawing, and more first-time buyers may be hitting the real estate market in 2015.

The federal agencies that guarantee most mortgages are launching new loan programs that require only 3% down payments for first-time buyers. Is this the start of financial crisis redux?

We should be looking at smaller "starter" homes as our "stay put" homes.
