Item 4.           Ownership.

                  (a)      Amount Beneficially Owned:

                  Mr. Wray beneficially owns 360,990 shares, including (i) 1,500
                  shares of Common Stock held by Mr. Wray in his individual
                  capacity; (ii) 21,752 units of limited partnership interest in
                  Roberts Properties Residential, L.P. ("Units") held by Mr.
                  Wray in his individual capacity, which Units may be exchanged
                  for an equal number of shares of Common Stock; (iii) 109,868
                  Units and 224,953 shares held by a partnership, over which
                  Units and shares Mr. Wray has voting and investment power; and
                  (iv) 2,917 Units owned jointly with his daughter, over which
                  he shares voting and investment power. Amount Beneficially
                  Owned excludes (i) 27,257 shares owned by Mr. Wray's wife in
                  her individual capacity; and (ii) 5,058 shares owned by a
                  trust over which Mr. Wray's wife is a co-trustee. Mr. Wray
                  disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares held by his wife
                  and by the trust over which his wife is the co-trustee.

                  Redemption of Units is subject to certain conditions. Among
                  other restrictions, ownership of shares of Common Stock is
                  limited under the issuer's articles of incorporation to 6.0%
                  of outstanding shares (other than by Mr. Charles S. Roberts,
                  the issuer's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, who is
                  limited to 25.0%). Accordingly, Units may not be redeemed if
                  upon their redemption the holder thereof would at such time
                  hold in excess of 6.0% of the then outstanding shares. Such
                  limit may prevent the reporting person or entity from
                  redeeming Units unless and until other Unitholders redeem a
                  sufficient number of Units to cause the number of outstanding
                  shares of Common Stock to be increased to a level sufficient
                  to permit such redemption. Accordingly, the amounts of shares
                  and percentages reported in this Schedule 13G are subject to
                  the foregoing limitation.

                  (b)  Percent of Class:

                                    7.3%

                  (c)  Number of Shares as to which such person has:

                       (iii)    sole power to dispose or to direct

                       (iv)     shared power to dispose or to direct
                                the disposition of                       2,917

Item 5.  Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class.

         Not applicable.

         Units and 224,953 shares would be distributed to a partnership (for
         which Mr. Wray is the general partner); dividends or proceeds from the
         sale of 27,257 shares would be distributed to Mr. Wray's wife; and
         dividends or proceeds from the sale of 5,058 shares would be
         distributed to a trust of which Mr. Wray's wife is a co-trustee.
