HW Media, the parent company of HousingWire, has acquired The Builder’s Daily, for an undisclosed amount.

“As we look at the future of housing, new home construction plays a vital role in bringing inventory to the market and shaping the communities of tomorrow,” said Clayton Collins, CEO of HW Media, in a statement. “John McManus is the most authoritative voice in the homebuilding sector — informing and educating generations of professionals on what excellence looks like and where the market is headed.”

McManus will be publisher of The Builder’s Daily and vice president of homebuilding. He will guide editorial and strategic growth across HW’s new homebuilding vertical.

He previously was an editorial director at Hanley Wood.
