ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

                                    OVERVIEW

The Company is engaged in two lines of business.

  1) The purchase and leaseback on a "triple net" basis of fully furnished
     model homes complete with options and upgrades to major publicly traded
     homebuilders and real estate developers.

  2) The real estate contract acquisition, development and sale program  for
     major publicly traded homebuilders and real estate developers.  The
     Company purchases the real estate, simultaneously enters a bonded (not to
     exceed) development contract with the builder supported by a performance
     (completion) bond, who then develops the real estate.  The builder
     purchases the finished lots from the Company on a scheduled basis usually
     not to exceed three (3) years.

Since its inception, the Company has purchased a total of 173 model homes and
sold 35, resulting in a portfolio of 138 model homes owned at September 30, 
1997. All of the Company's clients are major publicly traded homebuilders.

Since inception, the Company has entered into one land acquisition and
development contract with Engle Homes, Inc.  The transaction involved the
purchase of 70 acres in western Boca Raton to be subdivided into 370 lots for
the development of single family estate homes, zero lot single family homes,
townhouses, and villas.

On July 3, 1997, Engle Homes elected to fully exercise its option to purchase
the approximate 70-acre tract of land. The property was purchased from the
Company for the sum of $8,591,956.

Results of Operations:

Three Months Ended September 30, 1997 compared to September 30, 1996.

For the period from July 1, 1997 through September 30, 1997, the Company had
revenues of $10,772,087 of which lease rentals on model homes totaled
$711,788, revenues from land sales totaled $8,591,956, revenues from the sale
of model homes were $1,417,916, and revenues from option fees were $8,771. Net
loss for the period was $155,756. Depreciation and amortization for the quarter
totaled $253,394 resulting in a positive cash income from operations of
$97,638.

The Company's revenues from rental income increased approximately $330,000 (an
86% increase) during the three months ended September 30, 1997 as compared to
the three months ended September 30, 1996. This increase is due to additional
lease revenues generated from the purchase of $19,894,000 in model homes in
the twelve months ended September 30, 1997.

Real Estate option fee revenues of $8,771 were generated from the real estate
under contract program, versus $37,232 for the prior year quarter end. The
decrease was do to the exercise of the option to purchase resulting in the
sale of a land parcel for $8,591,956 on July 3, 1997.



                                      (9)


Corporate costs increased from $146,471 for the quarter ended September 30,
1996 to $290,026 for the quarter ended September 30, 1997. This increase was
attributable to the hiring of additional personnel and the selling, general
and administrative costs associated with generating the increased revenue
levels.

Model Homes
Model homes on lease have increased to $27,724,621 at September 30, 1997 from
$13,391,427 at September 30, 1996, an increase of 107%.

The average purchase price of model homes acquired by the Company since
inception was approximately $198,000.  For the quarter ended September 30,
1997, the Company has sold nine model homes for total sales price of
$1,417,916 less costs of sales of $1,371,965 for a net gain of $45,951.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Registrant's principal business, leasing of model homes and real estate
under contract, is a capital-intensive operation requiring constant infusions
of cash as the number and size of transactions in which the Registrant is
involved increases.  To date, this business has been financed by capital
contributed and loans made by shareholders, secured loans from banks, and a
registered offshore private placement.

These capital contributions, loans and offering have been adequate to permit
the Registrant to carry on operations to date.  However, in order to finance
the expansion of operations over the coming fiscal year, additional funds
must be raised through the issuance of debt or equity securities.  To fill
this need, the Registrant anticipates completing a securities offering of
$5 million prior to the end of fiscal 1998. The net proceeds of this offering,
together with new financing and existing cash of approximately $268,000,
should enable the Company to finance its growing level of operations.

The Company has executed a letter of intent with a major publicly traded
homebuilder and real estate developer to acquire 4-5 tracts of land having a
fully developed cost of $75,000,000 to $85,000,000.  The agreement provides
for a unit takedown schedule of finished lots over a period not to exceed 36
months.  The closing is subject to completion of due diligence and formal
documentation among other events.

The Company has commitments to purchase approximately $8,260,000 (37 model
homes) from a major, publicly traded homebuilder.

The Registrant expects that it will be able to finance these transactions and
others it currently is negotiating through available cash from the sources
described above and from other secured bank loans.  In addition, the
Registrant is exploring the possibility of selling, either publicly or
privately, securities backed by its model home inventory and real estate
and development contracts.  There can be no assurance, however, that any of
the anticipated sources of funding will ultimately be available to the
Registrant or that other financing will be available on acceptable terms.

Cash Flow - Three Months Ended September 30, 1997.

Net cash provided in operating activities comprised net loss of $155,756, plus
net adjustments for non-cash items of $207,444, plus a net change in other
operating assets and liabilities of $171,830.

Net cash provided in investing activities comprised proceeds from land sales
of $8,591,956 and $1,407,994 from sale of model homes, offset by $4,488,301 in
model home purchases.

Net cash used in financing activities comprised principal payments on
mortgages payable of $8,155,515 and deferred financing costs of $59,857,
offset by proceeds from mortgages payable of $1,771,801 and proceeds from
stockholder loans of $145,094.
                                      (11)


Trends in Operations

The Registrant's operations are currently accelerating at a rapid rate. Such
growth has resulted from the ongoing acquisition of model homes under lease
and from the implementation of the Company's new land acquisition and contract
development program.  Both programs have generated significant interest from
national home builders and real estate developers. The Company's successful
implementation of these programs has led to increased credit facilities. 

For the quarter ended September 30, 1997, purchases of model homes exceeded
$7,712,000, increasing total model homes on lease at September 30, 1997 to
over $27,700,000.  Monthly lease rental revenues on these assets will be in
excess of $277,000 per month.
