 Item 2: Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

SUSA  Partnership.  L.P. (the "Company"),  a limited  partnership  controlled by
Storage USA, Inc. (the "REIT"),  consummated during the period February 19, 1998
through March 10, 1998, the  acquisition of seven  self-storage  facilities (the
"Acquired  Facilities").  The Acquired Facilities contain  approximately 436,531
square feet,  are located in three states and were  purchased for  approximately
$22,950,000 in aggregate consideration.

The  acquisition  of the Acquired  Facilities  was funded by cash generated from
operations,  borrowings  under  the  Company's  lines of  credit  with The First
National  Bank  of  Chicago  and  First  Tennessee,  and the  assumption  of two
mortgages.  Each  of  the  Acquired  Facilities  was  used  by the  seller  as a
self-storage  facility prior to its acquisition by the Company,  and the Company
intends to  continue  such use of all the  Acquired  Facilities.  The  Company's
management  determined the contract price of each facility  through  arms-length
negotiations,  after  taking  into  consideration  such  factors as: the age and
condition  of  the  facility;   the  projected  amount  of  maintenance   costs;
anticipated capital  improvements;  the facility's current revenues;  comparable
facilities  competing  in  the  applicable  market;   market  rental  rates  for
comparable  facilities;  the occupancy  rate of the facility;  and the estimated
amount of taxes, utility costs,  personnel costs, and other anticipated expenses
associated with the facility.  Other than changes in these factors, the Company,
after reasonable  inquiry,  is not aware of any material factors relating to the
properties  that would cause the historical  financial  information  provided in
Item 7 not to be  necessarily  indicative  of future  operating  results for the
applicable facilities.

The following  provides certain additional  information  concerning the Acquired
Facilities:

In addition,  the Company has five facilities  under contract (the  "Acquisition
Facilities")  with  an  anticipated  closing  date  of  March  30,  1998.  These
facilities,  containing  approximately  285,671  square feet, are located in New
York state and have an estimated  cost of  $36,965,000.  The  acquisition of the
Acquisition  Facilities  will be  funded  by  cash  generated  from  operations,
borrowings  under the Company's  lines of credit with The First National Bank of
Chicago and First Tennessee,  and units of limited  partnership  interest in the
Company,  ("Units").  The  following  provides  certain  additional  information

                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS


To the Board of Directors
and Shareholders of
Storage USA, Inc.

                  We have  audited  the  accompanying  Historical  Summaries  of
Combined  Gross  Revenue  and  Direct   Operating   Expenses  (the   "Historical
Summaries") for certain  self-storage  facilities (the "Acquired and Acquisition
Facilities")  described in Note 1 to the Historical Summaries for the year ended
December 31, 1996.  These  Historical  Summaries are the  responsibility  of the
management of the Acquired and Acquisition Facilities.  Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these Historical Summaries based on our audits.

                  We conducted our audits in accordance with generally  accepted
auditing  standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable  assurance about whether the Historical  Summaries are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and  disclosures in the  Historical  Summaries.  An audit
also  includes  assessing the  accounting  principles  used and the  significant
estimates made by management,  as well as evaluating the overall presentation of
the Historical Summaries.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

                  The  accompanying  Historical  Summaries were prepared for the
purposes of  complying  with the Rules and  Regulations  of the  Securities  and
Exchange Commission (for inclusion in the Form 8-K/A of SUSA Partnership,  L.P.)
as described in Note 1 to the Historical Summaries, and are not intended to be a
complete  presentation of the Acquired and Acquisition  Facilities' revenues and
expenses.

                  In our opinion,  based on our audits, the Historical Summaries
referred to above present fairly, in all material  respects,  the combined gross
revenue and direct  operating  expenses  described in Note 1 of the Acquired and
Acquisition  Facilities for the year ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

         The Historical  Summaries for the Acquired and  Acquisition  Facilities
with a total  acquisition  cost of $60,612  have been  prepared  pursuant to the
Rules and Regulations of the Securities and Exchange  Commission for real estate
operations  acquired.  The Historical  Summaries are not  representative  of the
actual operations for the periods  presented,  as certain expenses which may not
be  comparable  to the  expenses  expected  to be incurred by the Company in the
future operations of the Acquired and Acquisition Facilities have been excluded.
Expenses  excluded  consist  of  management  fees,  interest,  depreciation  and
amortization, professional fees and other indirect costs not directly related to
the future operations of the Acquired and Acquisition Facilities.  Rental income
is recognized  when due from  occupants.  Expenses are recognized on the accrual
basis.

2.  Interim Periods

         The  unaudited  interim  Historical  Summaries  for  the  Acquired  and
Acquisition Facilities have been prepared on a basis consistent with the audited
Historical Summaries.  In the opinion of management,  all adjustments considered
necessary for a fair presentation are of a normal recurring nature and have been
included. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 are not
necessarily indicative of future operating results.

         The following  unaudited Pro Forma Combined Condensed Balance Sheet was
prepared  as if the  Acquired  and  Acquisition  Facilities  were  purchased  on
September 30, 1997.  The unaudited Pro Forma  Combined  Condensed  Statements of

and  Acquisition  Facilities as if the Acquired and  Acquisition  Facilities and
other previously reported  transactions had been consummated at the beginning of
the  respective  periods  shown.  The Pro  Forma  Combined  Condensed  Financial
Information  is based on the  historical  financial  statements  included in the
Company's  Quarterly  Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter  ended  September  30,
1997, and the pro forma financial  information set forth in the footnotes to the
financial  statements  included in the Company's  Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 1996,  and should be read in conjunction  with those
financial  statements  and the notes thereto.  The Combined  Condensed Pro Forma

results of operations  which actually  would have occurred if such  transactions
had been  consummated on the dates  described,  nor does it purport to represent
the Company's future financial position or results of operations.
