John Kelterer
RBF Consulting
Mr. Kelterer has his own Real Estate Advisory Firm. Mr. Kelterer represents private and corporate clients to assist in the enhancement of real estate assets to include repositioning of assets, asset valuation, acquisition, disposition, and overall strategic direction of real estate holdings. In this capacity, Mr. Kelterer not only advises on strategy but manages the implementation of asset repositioning to include construction where applicable. The clients include public companies as well as private investors. Additionally Mr. Kelterer is a partner and active participant in US Developments, a Charlotte based land development company which also specializes in golf course oriented properties.

From 2005 to 2009, Mr. Kelterer was a principal in the firm of McWalters and Kelterer. McWalters and Kelterer is a Real Estate Advisory firm specializing in providing its public and private clients with a variety of services intended to enhance the value of their real estate assets. One of the featured services of this firm was acquiring entitlements for clients, the largest of which was a 350 acre master planned community in the Inland Empire. The entitlement included 1860 homes, and 1.3 million square feet of business park. As part of his responsibilities, Mr. Kelterer managed the relationships with a number of private and corporate clients. At the time of the completion of the entitlements (2011), the market was not receptive to the sale of the asset. The project was put on hold but Mr. Kelterer has re-engaged with the owners of the 350 acre master planned community to update the entitlements and provide an exit strategy to monetize the asset. As part of the firm's assignments, Mr. Kelterer also acted as an advisor to California State University Fullerton in their search for a South Orange County Campus as well as being involved in the acquisition of other properties. He was very involved in the initiation of the new specific plan which was joint ventured with the City of Fullerton and covered the property between Nutwood Ave. and Chapman Ave, occupied by Hope International University, existing CSUF properties, and privately owned student apartments.

Prior to the formation of McWalters and Kelterer, Mr. Kelterer founded Benchmark Development Company in 1995, where Mr. Kelterer served as its President and CEO. Benchmark was the Master Developer of a 5000-acre master planned community known as Rancho Santa Margarita located in South Orange County, California. Rancho Santa Margarita had in excess of 15,500 residential units, 7.5 million square feet of commercial, industrial and retail space, and numerous parks, walking trails, and recreational amenities. Mr.Kelterer originally financed the project in 1985, while at Merrill Lynch, and was asked by the institutional investors (Copley Real Estate Advisors on behalf of New England Mutual Life and Harvard Capital) to return to the project in 1995 to finish the buildout. At the time the project was severely overfinanced, sales had dwindled to a few, and other serious problems existed. This caused the investors to take the project back. Since that time, in excess of $135 million in debt was repaid, public financial instruments were restructured, illiquid partnerships were terminated; overhead was cut to manageable levels, adjustments (including significant re-entitlements) were made to the business plan to increase revenue and assets were sold in an orderly manner. When the project concluded in the year 2003 the investors received in excess of $100 million in net distributions. These distributions were after the payoff of all debt and the complete return of capital and preferences.

Mr. Kelterer's background includes 16 years at Wells Fargo Bank where, as Senior Vice President, he founded the Southern California Division of the bank's Real Estate Industries Group. The Southern California Division grew to generate in excess of $3 billion in annual financings from 1976 to 1981 throughout four offices and a staff of approximately 125 people. Mr. Kelterer ultimately became Deputy Group Head where he had responsibility for the management of the entire statewide group with annual financings in excess of $5 billion.

A native of San Francisco, Mr. Kelterer is a graduate of Santa Clara University where he received a Bachelor's Degree in Science and Commerce. He received his MBA from the University of San Francisco. Mr. Kelterer also attended the Executive Financial Management Course at Stanford University.
