Housing’s spring selling-season is shaping up nicely as potential home-buyers are enjoying low rates and rising wages, said Anthony Hsieh, CEO of loanDepot.

Finally, Hsieh said homebuyers have learned the lessons of the housing bust and are generally putting at least 20% down on their homes, especially now that lending standards have tightened.
