ITEM 2.     MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

General
- -------

The Company was incorporated on December 22, 1995 in the State of New Jersey
for the purpose of acquiring, developing and selling real estate.

The Company targets its marketing and business activity to renting  apartment 
units to moderate income people who are not in a position to acquire a home.  
The Company believes that well maintained, affordable rental units will be in 
great demand as a result of slow wage growth in the future.  This should 
provide a stable rental income base and allow for future revenue growth 
through modest rental increases near the rate of inflation.

The Company's long range plan is to reduce debt to around fifty percent of a 
property's value.  To accomplish this, the Company plans to raise additional 
capital through the sale of its securities in the future.  On September 19, 
1997, the Company completed the refinance of the long term debt on its 
existing property.

The Company advertises its rental units in local newspapers, by direct mail
and through promotional programs designed to maintain occupancy at or above
95%.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the 
Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto appearing elsewhere in 
this Form 10-QSB and in the previously filed Form 10-KSB for the period
ending December 31, 1997.


Results of Operations
- ---------------------
The following discussion is for the three months ending March 31, 1998 and 
1997, respectively.

The Company reported total revenues of $203,778 and $185,183 in 1998 and 1997 
respectively.  Occupancy was approximately 96% and 93%, respectively.   
Operating expenses exclusive of interest expense increased from $140,519 in 
1997 to $148,539 in 1998.  Net loss decreased from $38,278 in 1997 to $19,221
in 1998.  The Company  believes that overall, the Company and the industry 
will realize modest  increases in net rental income and net operating income 
in the foreseeable future.

The net loss per share was ($.009) for the first three months in 1998, 
compared to a $(.07) net loss for the first three months of 1997.

Interest expense was $82,942 in 1998 and $74,460 in 1997.  Going forward, 
the Company expects interest expense to decrease from comparable prior 
periods as a result of the refinancing which occurred on September 19, 1997.

Funds from operations turned positive in the first three months of 1998.
Funds from operations was $6,798 for the three months ending March 31, 1998,
a $22,442 increase over the comparable prior period.  Funds from operations
is defined by the Company as income before gains or losses on sales of 
investments plus depreciation, less preferred dividends and after adjustment
for significant non-recurring items, if any.





                                      -9-<PAGE>

The Company is taxed as a C-corporation for federal and state income tax 
purposes.  As such, the Company will pay taxes on its net income as defined by 
the Internal Revenue Code.  No tax attributes of the Company flow through to 
the shareholders except for the regular taxation of dividends paid, if any.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
At March 31, 1998, the Company had a working capital deficit of $39,859, 
including cash held in escrow for anticipated future expenses.  The Company
is dependent upon the proceeds from the stock subscription receivable or 
other financing to further implement its business plan.  

On December 31, 1997, the Company had $61,550 in cash.  During the quarter
ending March 31, 1998, the Company received $25,000 in proceeds from the 
issuance of common stock.  The Company used $4,916 in operating activities and
purchased $13,450 in property and equipment, of which $0 was debt financed. 
The Company repaid $22,289 on notes payable.  The net decrease in cash was
$15,655.  The Company had $45,895 in cash on March 31, 1998, exclusive of cash
held in the escrow accounts. 

The Company's balance sheet is highly leveraged. The Company plans to reduce 
this leverage through future equity offerings. With 
the net proceeds of the stock subscription receivable, plus anticipated 
revenues, the Company believes it can support operations and planned capital 
expenditures for at least twelve months. In the event that the Company's plans 
change or its assumptions change or prove to be inaccurate, the Company may be 
required to seek additional financing sooner than currently anticipated. 
Thereafter, if the Company is unable to generate sufficient income from 
operations to service its existing debt, the Company will require additional 
financing. The Company has not identified any potential sources of debt or 
equity financing and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able 
to obtain additional financing if and when needed or that, if available, 
financing will be on terms acceptable to the Company.

Forward Looking Statements
- --------------------------

The Company is making this statement in order to satisfy the "safe harbor" 
provisions contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  
The foregoing discussion includes forward-looking statements relating to the 
business of the Company.  Forward-looking statements contained herein or in 
other statements made by the Company are made based on management's 
expectations and beliefs concerning future events impacting the Company and 
are subject to uncertainties and factors relating to the Company's operations 
and business environment, all of which are difficult to predict and many of 
which are beyond the control of the Company, that could cause actual results 
of the Company to differ materially from those matters expressed in or implied 
by forward-looking statements.  The Company believes that the following 
factors, among others, could affect its future performance and cause actual 
results of the Company to differ materially from those expressed in or implied 
by forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company:  (a) the 
effect of changes in interest rates; (b) the rental rate and demand for 
apartment rental units; (c) fluctuations in the costs to operate the 
properties owned by the Company; (d) uninsurable risks; and (e) general 
economic conditions.
