I wanted to have Frank on the show to learn more about Ownify and its unique approach to solving the homebuying affordability problem. Housing has become such a big deal in America, both for our economy and our democracy, and we need individuals like Frank and companies like Ownify, to help reverse the negative trend.

Stay tuned to the end to learn why, after stumbling across some concerning mortgage data in his last company, Frank decided to go all-in on the fight to improve access for first-time homebuyers.
