Rich Moran – Broker

Before deciding to follow his passion for real estate by getting his real estate license, Rich Moran spent twenty years at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange.  He was as a broker in the interest rate quadrant of the trading floor and developed a very good understanding of the world of finance.

Rich earned a B.A. in economics from Tulane University in New Orleans, Louisiana.  He is a native New Yorker, but has lived in Chicago for twenty five years.  His home is in Wicker Park.  

His communication skills, along with his attention to detail, were among the strengths that contributed to his success at the CME.  These are the same attributes that have made his transition into real estate so smooth.  He has always had a strong desire and ability to understand his clients’ needs and a tact for critical thinking.

Rich has known Matt Walton and has observed his diligence, loyalties and work ethic for some time now.  That is why he decided to join forces with Matt at Current Properties and has found it to be a great working relationship.
