Brian Gass is a real estate agent and Designated Broker of ONE Real Estate Inc. After years of working directly with buyers, sellers, and builders, he saw how housing affordability was slipping out of reach for average households-not because people stopped working hard, but because the system governing housing had quietly changed.
