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, Stephen’s 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 SJREIA’s Wholesaling Subgroup since 2016.
Co-leader 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.- How does it work?
- How can you get started, and be successful at it?
- If you currently wholesale, how can you find better deals and more profit?

👉 COST: Members & Visitors: Attend FREE
📍 The Holiday Inn, 2175 W. Marlton Pike (Rt. 70), Cherry Hill, NJ“I have no idea what the stock market is going to do in the next month or six months from now. I do know that the American economy, over a period of time, will do very well, and people who own a piece of it will do well.” ~ Warren Buffett, Investor Extraordinaire So where should investors find and buy pieces of the American Economy as Warren Buffett recommends?
According to the Wall Street Journal: “Buyers are likely to do better with bank-owned properties — sometimes called “real estate owned” houses, or REOs.”
Are there signs today that REOs will be spiking again in the future? According to Auction.com, what we are seeing today are the first signs of tomorrow’s opportunity as…Every real estate investor who has been around a while recalls the crazy discounts available in 2009 – 2012. The best deals were all REOs (bank-owned foreclosures), and before the crazy discounts then, like now, mortgage delinquencies rose dramatically.
National Speaker Andy Heller will get you ready for this upcoming rise in REOs so you can be one of those investors to cash in as REOs rise to record levels in the coming months ahead.
Andy’s going to share his secrets on buying Bank-Owned properties for just pennies on the dollar. Andy’s entire investment strategy has been recommended by Fortune Magazine as one of the TOP 5 Wealth Building Strategies for Real Estate Investors. So you will not only learn how to find the deals, but how to flip for quick cash and rent your properties in days or weeks and sell WITHOUT DISCOUNTING.
You will be completely floored by the information Andy shares, and the utter simplicity of his investment strategy. Beginners will love it too and seasoned investors will immediately appreciate the opportunity Andy’s strategy offers them today.If you’re ready to learn, Andy will share his secrets and teach you…
- Why Fortune Magazine recognizes Andy’s “Buy Low, Rent Smart, Sell High” model as one of the TOP 5 Wealth Building Strategies for Real Estate Investors.
- Why and how an investors can make enormous profits buying bank-owned foreclosures for pennies on the dollar!
- How to buy Bank-Owned Foreclosures as “Pocket Listings” BEFORE they are listed on MLS, before anyone else has a chance to buy them.
- How to rent your properties in days or weeks, not months by “Renting Smart”.
- How to sell for top dollar WITHOUT paying real estate commissions.
- Answers to your questions and much more!
Learn how his students are earning 6 figure incomes today and how you can too! RSVP Now!
You’ll also hear about a few of Andy’s students such as:
Hans van der Kolk bought a business with the money he made from Andy’s system, then returned to real estate investing and made $168,000 on his first three deals!
Following Andy’s step-by-step system, Richard Lamberi bought 2 bank-owned foreclosures in his first 30 days and 7 in his first 8 months!
Wally Fetrow and his son, with no experience, flipped their first REO and made $28,000. Their next two REOS they have Lease Optioned with Andy’s “Rent Smart System.”
John Adams was building a new home, and could not sell his primary residence in 10 months. In less than two months, John and his family were looking at the frightening thought of having two mortgages to cover. Two weeks after implementing Andy’s Rent Smart program, he lease/purchased his home (that he could not sell in 10 months) at a positive cash flow. John has done two more lease/purchases since.
RSVP Now and join us at SJREIA to LEARN what these students KNOW and you can enjoy the same results!About Andy Heller
Neither Andy Heller nor his real estate partner Scott Frank, ever intended to become full time real estate investors. However, in their approximately 70 years of combined real estate investing, they have developed a long-term real estate investing strategy that has allowed them to make millions while minimizing their time, effort and headaches.
On a part-time basis Andy and Scott have purchased more properties than many full-time real estate investors. How is that possible?
Their “Buy Low, Rent Smart, Sell High” strategy, is a simple, lucrative, and scalable wealth generating method. You can use it to buy one home, or dozens. Andy and Scott are living proof that it can be done, and it does not take a lot of money or a lot of time….just the desire to make it happen.
FORTUNE MAGAZINE recognized the “Buy Low, Rent Smart, Sell High” program among the top five real estate wealth building strategies. After the Fortune recognition, requests came in for Andy and Scott to speak and teach others what they have learned during their real estate investing career. Shortly thereafter Andy and Scott formed their educational company called “Regular Riches”. Andy and Scott selected the name “Regular Riches” to show that “regular guys” and “regular gals” just like them can achieve real estate riches.
Looking at where today’s real estate market is and where it is likely heading, we reached out to Andy since he is an old friend who is a recognized national expert in both REOs and Lease/Options. Both investment strategies look to be among the greatest opportunities for real estate investors in the coming years. Andy has helped countless people in their efforts to realize their dreams, and he is ready to share his knowledge to put you on the road to real estate riches.Location: The Holiday Inn, 2175 W.

The BRRRR Strategy: Turning One Deal into a Lifetime of Deals
At this meeting Gavin won’t be sharing theory — he’ll be walking through real-world lessons, wins, mistakes, and practical steps that investors at any level can apply immediately.
What if you could buy properties, renovate them strategically, refinance your capital back out… and repeat the process again and again — sometimes pulling out more cash than you put in?
At this month’s meeting, Gavin Guglielmi breaks down how he is actively using the BRRRR Strategy (Buy, Renovate, Rent, Refinance, Repeat) to build a scalable rental portfolio in South Jersey — while recycling the same capital over and over.
This is not theory. This is active implementation in today’s market.### What You’ll Learn:
1 Finding the Right Deals
- Buying below market value in competitive areas
- Identifying properties that qualify for strong refinance outcomes
- Structuring deals that protect downside risk
2 Strategic Renovation for Maximum Appraisal
- Renovating with the refinance in mind
- Where to spend money (and where not to)
- Increasing ARV without over-improving
3 Renting for Stability & Cash Flow
- Positioning properties for strong tenant demand
- Protecting NOI to support strong lender valuations
4 Refinance & Capital Recycling
- Building lender relationships that scale
- Understanding DSCR, LTV, seasoning, and appraisal strategy
- Pulling capital back out — sometimes with surplus cash
- Creating “infinite return” scenarios
5 Repeat & Portfolio Growth
- Turning single deals into a repeatable system
- Scaling into multifamily using BRRRR principles
If you’re serious about scaling beyond flips, building generational wealth, and owning strong cash-flowing assets in South Jersey, this session will be packed with actionable insights.
SPEAKER BIO
Gavin Guglielmi is a South Jersey real estate investor, entrepreneur, and proud father who built his career the old-fashioned way — by starting small, taking calculated risks, and learning through action.
He began in real estate as a wholesaler, focused on understanding how to find discounted opportunities and structure smart deals. From there, he transitioned into flipping properties, sharpening his renovation and valuation skills. Today, Gavin is fully immersed in new construction in South Jersey beach towns while actively building a multifamily rental portfolio using the BRRRR strategy.
What separates Gavin’s approach is not hype — it’s execution. He focuses on buying right, renovating strategically, building strong lender relationships, and recycling capital to create long-term, sustainable growth.
Outside of real estate, Gavin owns and operates a staffing agency and a marketing company, experiences that have shaped his disciplined, systems-driven mindset toward scaling businesses and investments.Time: 6:30pm to 8:30pm
