This has nothing to do with RESTBuilder.

Reading properties is a java-level activity. Do you not know how to use java.util.Properties?

Alternatively you could put the props in portal-ext.properties and use Liferay's PropsUtil class to access properties.

There are also packages that can help like EasyConf or commons-configuration. Spring has property handling support too.
