Congratulations to Matt Silver, broker-partner with Corcoran Urban Real Estate in Chicago, who has been named the 2022 treasurer nominee for the state association.
An Illinois REALTORS® Board of Directors vote is expected to formally place Silver on the association’s leadership ladder later this year. His selection by the association’s Nominating Committee was announced Tuesday, Feb. 9, 2021.
Silver is a past president of the Chicago Association of REALTORS® (C.A.R.). He was named Chicago REALTOR® of the Year in 2018 and received the REALTOR® Achievement Award from C.A.R. in 2013. Silver has served as 2015 president of the Real Estate Educational Foundation (REEF) and is a member of the Dearborn REALTIST® Board.
At the state level, Silver serves as a Federal Political Coordinator for District 10 (Rep. Brad Schneider). He is a member of the Illinois REALTORS® Board of Directors, currently chairs the association’s Professional Standards Committee and has served on a variety of association committees over the past 19 years.
Silver has earned several industry designations and endorsements, including Certified Residential Specialist (CRS), Graduate, REALTOR® Institute (GRI), e-PRO certification, and the National Association of REALTORS®’ Commitment to Excellence C2EX endorsement.
Once the nominating committee’s selection is sanctioned by the association’s board of directors, Silver will join other Illinois REALTOR® leaders in 2022, including Ezekiel “Zeke” Morris, who will become president; Michael Gobber, who will become president-elect and Sue Miller, who will be immediate past president.
