Taking the plunge into homeownership can be a big undertaking.
And in a hot real estate market like this, it's no wonder families are stressed out trying to make homeownership a reality.

We explore this question by looking at the pros and cons of going with a 20% down payment or not.
Also, on our new "Internet Money" segment, we chat with Julie Berninger about how she made $10k by selling printables on Etsy!
