For the tens of thousands of agents who rely on KCM, HousingWire's investment has one goal: helping them win more business. KCM becomes a core part of HousingWire Solutions, HousingWire's insights, analytics and marketing platform, alongside Altos and RealTrends, led by Mark Adams, executive vice president. By integrating with HousingWire, KCM delivers a clearer, more local and more timely picture of the market inside the tools agents already use to educate clients and win listings. The acquisition comes as agents face a highly competitive market where sellers are increasingly selective and expertise matters more than ever. "Agents don't need more data, they need the right intelligence in the moment they're sitting across from a client," said Clayton Collins, CEO of HousingWire. "KCM has earned agents' trust for years by making the market easy to explain. With HousingWire's data behind it, that story becomes local and specific to the exact market each agent works in, driving sharper conversations, stronger listing presentations and more transactions." "We built KCM to help agents explain the market with confidence, and our members have rewarded that with their trust for years," said Bill Harney, CEO of Keeping Current Matters. "With HousingWire's data and resources behind the platform, our customers et a more local, more powerful product and an even better reason to bring KCM into every client conversation." Keeping Current Matters is HousingWire's fifth acquisition since 2020, expanding the company's platform serving housing professionals across real estate, mortgage and homebuilding. HousingWire Data already powers KCM Local, bringing property-level market intelligence directly into the KCM platform. Building on that foundation, HousingWire will extend local data across content, scripts and client-facing assets to help agents turn market insights into stronger conversations. "The integration with HousingWire makes our users more local, more relevant and more valuable to the clients they serve," said David Childers, president of KCM. "It's a natural next step in the direction our members have been moving all along." Members can expect more local depth across the content, scripts and presentations they use every day. Prospective members can explore KCM Local at KeepingCurrentMatters.com. Monhegan Partners LLC and Newport LLC served as transaction advisers, and The Miller Law Firm PLLC served as legal counsel to Keeping Current Matters in connection with the transaction.
