Mark Adams

Senior Vice President, HW Media

Mark Adams is Senior Vice President at HW Media, where he drives strategy and execution across subscription businesses including HousingWire, RealTrends, and Altos. Drawing on a strong background in mortgage lending, Mark brings a practical, data-driven perspective to the real estate market and the products that serve it.

A strategist with a collaborative mindset, Mark leads teams spanning SaaS product development, real estate market analytics, and membership programs. He is recognized for integrating newly acquired companies, architecting customer-centric experiences, and aligning design, marketing, and pricing strategies to scale recurring revenue and elevate brand value. His leadership ensures that HW Media’s platforms—HousingWire’s industry-leading journalism, RealTrends’ authoritative rankings, and Altos’ real-time market analytics—deliver exceptional value to real estate agents, brokers, mortgage professionals, and housing executives.

Mark also leads HW Media's CEO Mastermind groups for Realtor associations and brokerage executives, bringing together some of the nation’s most successful firms. These consulting-based programs give him deep operational insights into leading brokerages and associations—knowledge he draws on to guide HW Media’s products and to share valuable perspectives with audiences when speaking at industry events.

At Worthshop, we are in awe of Mark for the way he seems to have a gift for bringing people together. He also brings a rare clarity to data, connecting numbers to story in a way that makes complex insights accessible and actionable. His work ensures that the platforms agents and brokers rely on are not only authoritative but built on clarity and insight.

As moderator of Worthshop’s Real Estate Media Panel, Mark guides a conversation with the brilliant minds behind Inman News and T3 Sixty, the voices shaping how real estate news is told. He reflects our theme of GROUND by showing how strategy, media, and message create the foundation for informed leadership and communication.
