BIO - Ben is a graduate of Drexel University, where he obtained a degree in Mechanical Engineering while taking finance electives, playing baseball and dabbling in photography.
After graduation, Ben began his career as an engineer and a project and product manager in the field of plastics and diesel fuel filtration. It was while working as an engineer that he realized helping his coworkers choose and balance the investments in their retirement plans was far more rewarding than fuel filtration.
Soon thereafter he opened an office with Edward Jones, where he spent six years building a financial planning and investment management practice. His knack for numbers and scientific approach as an engineer are a natural fit for the financial planning process.
Today, Ben lives in Hammonton, New Jersey with his wife Dr. Laurie Lemons and four children Brayden-10, Alex-7, Evelyn-4, and Kyler-2. He currently operates his own independent financial planning and investment management practice through Kingsview Wealth Management. Obsessively ethical, Ben specializes in offering clients easy to understand yet comprehensive financial information. In his free time, Ben enjoys golf, working on projects around the house, green energy, and game nights with friends.Location: Marcello's Trattoria - 225 Bellevue Ave, Hammonton, NJ

Mastering Out-Of-State Investing
Kim McFaline of Restoring is Our Calling | 347-233-1254
Join us for an insightful real estate meeting dedicated to exploring the lucrative world of out-of-state investing! Kim will share strategies, tips, and success stories about tapping into real estate markets beyond your local area.
Discover how to:- identify promising markets
- navigate state-specific regulations
- build a diverse portfolio that spans across the country
Whether you're looking to expand your investment horizons or seeking advice on managing properties from afar, this meeting promises to equip you with the knowledge and connections needed to thrive in out-of-state real estate investing.
BIO - Kim's passion for real estate pulses through her veins as does her grit. She grew up with her father's master carpentry skills and was guided to develop her own along with her mother's massive push to be anything she put her mind to be, regardless of which gender normally held that role.
Restoring is her calling and she works with the idea that you get out what you put into something. While most house flippers just crunch numbers when they are evaluating a deal, Kim is building a vision that will carry the torch for those who sell her their properties. Rather than try to get a property for the lowest price, her main objective is to actively listen to see what problems she can solve. Kim is well-versed in rehabbing and holding short term rentals. She enjoys family life with her veteran husband and three sons.MEETING DETAILS:

Leader - Sharyn Mancini

She is also in the midst of building her rental portfolio, utilizing seller finance.
She is a licensed Realtor in NJ and PA and prides herself in offering multiple solutions to sellers and buying either cash for a quick closing, on terms for the maximum net price, or staging and listing the house to offer to regular retail buyers.Sharyn also works as a senior volunteer in dog rescue as well as enjoys hiking, yoga, reading, healthy eating, and spending time with her family.

Wholesaling Commercial Real Estate
I will talk about how I got started in RE, my journey in residential and how and why I pivoted to larger deals.
Frank McGovern - Owner/CEO - Building Opportunities LLC
Phone: 215-840-5349 | Fax: 215-485-5907 | www.frankbuysphilly.comBIO - Started real estate in Philly in 2010 with no experience or connections and very little money. Did everything myself the 1st few years while i figured things out and then slowly built up a team. From 2010-2021 I did well over 500 deals. Most were wholesale deals but rehabbed a good amount, built a few houses and accumulated some rentals. In 2020 started realizing the path I was on wasnt the path I wanted to be on and started looking into commercial and industrial real estate. Wasn't an easy transition but now my focus is wholesaling and acquiring commercial and industrial assets nationally.

Host - Wholesaling Leader Stephen Chatto
Stephen is an accomplished real estate professional with over two decades of experience. His journey began in 2000 purchasing his first 3 family rental properties. A few more rentals and all was well, but he still needed to work. In 2012 he saw the possibilities available to him through wholesaling real estate. He decided to fully commit to real estate full time wholesaling to sustainably meet financial obligations and obtain more properties.Over time, Stephenโs expertise in the real estate market evolved from wholesaling to purchasing multiple rental portfolios using the BRRR strategy, and most recently pursuits in private lending for truly passive income. Wholesaling has made him his own boss and he wants others to experience the same freedom. He has run SJREIAโs Wholesaling Subgroup since 2016.
Co-host Roland Jefferson
Roland is a real estate wholesaler and a man of faith with a beautiful wife and 3 fantastic grown children. After much prayer for alternative ways to increase his income during his 17 years in corporate American, where he maxed his income as a performance engineering IT computer consultant, Roland discovered real estate wholesaling. He dove into the information age of free podcasts and YouTube University to gain an understanding of this new opportunity during his long work commutes to New York City. Eventually, Roland began working part-time in wholesaling real estate and as his education grew, he invested in advanced training and coaching to accelerate his knowledge and develop more consistent deal flow.
Roland has been blessed with the ability to replace and exceed his corporate income enabling him to be a full-time real estate wholesaler for the past 2 years. In addition to his love of winning in the wholesale arena, Roland also has a passion for teaching new wholesalers and helping them to achieve their own success. Roland believes in being a blessing to motivated sellers, serious cash buyers and anyone willing to learn and work as a real estate wholesaler in order to be a positive impact in the lives of others.
Meeting the 2nd Thurs every month.Real estate wholesaling is one of the most powerful strategies for investors.
