Chris Mooney

Chris began his career in Finance specializing in the Technology, Media & Telecommunications sector, working in both New York and Boston. Chris and his partners have developed comprehensive winning corporate strategies with significant shareholder value enhancements focused on companies such as IBM, Nextel, Virgin Media, RCN and Sirius/XM Satellite Radio. These strategic efforts crossed all functions, including product strategy, marketing channels, sales, I/T, networks, back office and all overhead support groups, and were focused on driving efficiency and revenue growth. He wanted to expand upon his financial and operational background, and focus on how to understand and appeal to audiences of all kinds. Upon completion of Business School, Chris came back to the TMT sector with a new outlook on how to combine knowledge of the industry, financial analysis, and operational efficiency management, with an understanding of different markets and how people make decisions, in order to create and sustain asset value.

This experience in business and the world of asset management and banking would prove to be invaluable to a new venture, Cobble Creek Builders North America, Inc., a real estate investment and development company focused in Westchester & Suffolk counties in New York. The initial area of investment moved from high-end custom building to acquiring poorly managed and struggling real estate assets in otherwise prosperous areas with all-cash offers via equity contributions, adding significant value to the properties, and then marketing them in a very focused and specific way to get the asset sold quickly and at a high rate of return. Chris and his partners’ portfolio consisted of over $50 Million in properties in Westchester, NY, and $30 Million in Southampton, NY.

His new venture, Cider Moon Investment Group LLC, was established to bring his experience in business and real estate to help drive the value of Multi-Family & Student-Housing real estate investments for his partners and investors. CMIG now has a portfolio of Multi-Family & Student-Housing properties in in Georgia, North Carolina, Tennessee, Louisiana and Florida with a market value of over $115 Million, and totaling 1,450 units.

Chris earned his undergraduate degree in Finance in 2005 from the University of Notre Dame, and holds an M.B.A. from the W.P. Carey School of Business at Arizona State University. He currently resides in New Jersey with his wife Nicole, a former LPGA player and current Class A LPGA Teaching Professional, and Manager at a Wall Street Hedge Fund Consulting Firm, and their son Christopher.
