Item 5. Other Events


      Colonial   Realty  Limited   Partnership   (CRLP),   a  Delaware   limited
partnership,  is the Operating  Partnership  of Colonial  Properties  Trust,  an
Alabama real estate  investment  trust whose common shares are listed on the New
York Stock Exchange under the symbol CLP. CRLP owns and operates commercial real
estate in the southeastern  United States. CRLP has acquired one office property
in Georgia and one multifamily  apartment community in Mississippi (the Acquired
Properties) since July 21, 1997 (the date of the last Form 8-K filed). The terms
of the  acquisitions  of the Acquired  Properties,  which were  determined  as a
result of arms length  negotiations  between the sellers of the  properties  and
CRLP, are set forth in real estate sales  contracts.  The following is a summary
of the material terms of the transactions.

Terms of Acquisition

The two Acquired Properties total 328 apartment units and 352,000 square feet of
office space and were  purchased at a combined  purchase price of $66.5 million.
The  completed  acquisitions  increase  CRLP's  multifamily  portfolio to 14,949
apartment units and increase CRLP's office portfolio to 1.9 million square feet.
In association with the Acquired  Properties,  CRLP assumed  existing  mortgages
totaling  $42.7  million.  The  remainder of the purchase  price of the Acquired
Properties was financed  through the issuance of limited  partnership  units and
advances on CRLP's unsecured line of credit.

Description of Property

Mansell 400 Business Center--Atlanta, Georgia

On July 31, 1997,  CRLP completed the first phase of a planned merger which will
ultimately merge the assets of Johnson Development Company, LLC. The first phase
included the six existing office buildings at the Mansell 400 Business Center in
Atlanta,  Georgia.  These  six  buildings,  which  were  built in 1987 and 1996,
include 352,000 square feet of office space with an average  occupancy of 99% at
the time of  acquisition.  The  total  transaction,  which  was  valued at $48.5
million,  was funded through the issuance of 540,235 limited  partnership  units
valued at $15.7  million,  the  assumption of debt totaling  $31.7 million which
bears  interest at a weighted  average  rate of 8.42%,  and an advance on CRLP's
unsecured  line of credit.  In  connection  with this  transaction,  the seller,
William M.  Johnson,  was elected as a director of Colonial  Properties  Holding
Company, Inc., CRLP's general partner.

Mark Trace--Jackson, Mississippi

On August 29, 1997,  CRLP acquired Mark Trace, a 328-unit  apartment  complex on
approximately  26  acres  of  land  in  Jackson,  Mississippi.  The  multifamily
community was developed between 1995 and 1997, and was 98% leased at the time of
acquisition.  The  purchase  price of $17.6  million  was  financed  through the
assumption  of debt totaling  $11.0  million which bears  interest at a weighted
average rate of 8.09%,  and an advance on CRLP's  unsecured line of credit.  The
average unit size is 1,045 square feet with average unit market rent of $637 per
month.

                             CONDENSED BALANCE SHEET
                                  June 30, 1997
                                   (Unaudited)


The following unaudited pro forma consolidated  condensed balance sheet reflects
significant  transactions  effected  by CRLP after June 30, 1997  including  the
purchase of the two Acquired  Properties  mentioned  elsewhere  herein,  and two
multifamily  communities  acquired in July 1997 as  discussed in CRLP's Form 8-K
filed July 21, 1997. In addition to these four  acquisitions,  the unaudited pro
forma consolidated condensed balance sheet reflects two public offerings of debt
in July and August 1997, and cash contributions  received from a public offering
of equity  securities by Colonial  Properties  Trust in July 1997. The pro forma
effects  of  these   transactions  are  included  in  the  unaudited  pro  forma
consolidated  condensed  balance sheet assuming the transactions  occurred as of
June 30,  1997,  and  assuming  CRLP used the  proceeds  of the debt and  equity
offerings to repay  outstanding  indebtedness  (see notes to unaudited pro forma
consolidated condensed balance sheet).

This unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed balance sheet is not necessarily
indicative of the actual financial  position of CRLP had the  transactions  been
completed  as of June 30,  1997,  nor does it  purport to  represent  the future
financial  position of CRLP.  The  unaudited  pro forma  consolidated  condensed
balance  sheet  and  related  notes  should  be read  in  conjunction  with  the
information  appearing in CRLP's 1996 Annual Report as filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K and with the financial  statements included
therein and the notes  thereto,  with CRLP's June 30, 1997  Quarterly  Report as
filed with the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission  on Form 10-Q and with the
financial  statements  included  therein and the notes thereto,  and with CRLP's
Form 8-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange  Commission on July 21, 1997,
including  the  financial   statements   therein  and  the  notes  thereto.   In
management's  opinion, all adjustments necessary to reflect the effects of these
transactions have been made.

(A) Reflects the  historical  financial  position of CRLP as of June 30, 1997 as
    presented  in CRLP's  Form 10-Q as filed with the  Securities  and  Exchange
    Commission on August 14, 1997.

(B) Includes the  acquisition  (subsequent to June 30, 1997) of the two Acquired
    Properties;  Mansell  400  Business  Center  for a  purchase  price of $48.5
    million,  and  Mark  Trace  for a  purchase  price of  $17.6  million  (both
    properties  included as "Probable  Acquisitions" in CRLP's Form 8-K filed on
    July 21,  1997).  Also  includes  the  acquisition  of  Timothy  Woods for a
    purchase  price of $12.8  million,  and Oakleigh  Apartments  for a purchase
    price of $10.5  million (the  effects of which were also  included in CRLP's
    Form 8-K  filed on July 21,  1997).  These  properties  were  also  acquired
    subsequent  to June 30, 1997.  These  property  acquisitions  were  financed
    through the issuance of limited partnership units, advances on the Company's
    unsecured  line of credit  and the  assumption  of  indebtedness  on the two
    Acquired Properties.

    The pro forma  adjustments also include the application of the proceeds from
    the two public debt offerings in July and August 1997 of $100 million,  less
    offering  costs of $.6 million,  and the  application of the net proceeds of
    $49.7 million from the public equity offering by Colonial  Properties  Trust
    in July 1997.

                    For the Year Ended December 31, 1996 and
                       the Six Months Ended June 30, 1997
                                   (Unaudited)


The  following  unaudited  pro  forma  consolidated   condensed   statements  of
operations reflect significant  transactions  effected by CRLP during 1997 which
includes the purchase of the two Acquired Properties mentioned elsewhere herein.
In addition to the Acquired Properties,  the following significant  transactions
are reflected in the unaudited pro forma  consolidated  condensed  statements of
operations:  (i) CRLP's cash  contributions  received from  Colonial  Properties
Trust's equity offerings  completed in January 1996, January 1997, and July (ii)
CRLP's debt offerings  completed in July 1996, December 1996, January 1997, July
1997, and August 1997, and (iii) CRLP's acquisition of 10 properties during 1997
other  than the two  Acquired  Properties.  The pro  forma  effects  of all such
transactions  are included in the  unaudited  pro forma  consolidated  condensed
statements of operations assuming the transactions had occurred as of January 1,
1996 and  assuming  CRLP used the  proceeds of the equity and debt  offerings to
repay outstanding  indebtedness  (see notes to unaudited pro forma  consolidated
condensed statements of operations).

These unaudited pro forma  consolidated  condensed  statements of operations are
not  necessarily  indicative  of  the  actual  results  of  operations  had  the
transactions  been  completed  as of  January 1,  1996,  nor do they  purport to
represent the future results of the operations of CRLP. CRLP is not aware of any
material factors relating to the Acquired Properties, other than as disclosed in
the footnotes to the unaudited pro forma  consolidated  condensed  statements of
operations,  which would cause the combined historical summaries of revenues and
direct operating  expenses not to be necessarily  indicative of future operating
results.

The  unaudited pro forma  consolidated  condensed  statements of operations  and
related notes should be read in conjunction  with the  information  appearing in
CRLP's 1996 Annual Report as filed with the Securities  and Exchange  Commission
on Form 10-K and with the financial  statements  included  therein and the notes
thereto, with CRLP's June 30, 1997 Quarterly Report as filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission on Form 10-Q and with the financial  statements included
therein  and the  notes  thereto,  and with  CRLP's  Form 8-K as filed  with the
Securities  and Exchange  Commission  on July 21, 1997,  including the financial
statements  therein  and  the  notes  thereto.  In  management's   opinion,  all
adjustments  necessary  to reflect the effects of these  transactions  have been
made.

(A) Reflects CRLP's historical results of operations for the year ended December
    31,  1996,  as  presented  in CRLP's  1996  Annual  Report as filed with the
    Securities  and  Exchange  Commission  on Form  10-K and  CRLP's  historical
    results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1997 as presented in
    CRLP's  June 30,  1997  Quarterly  Report as filed with the  Securities  and
    Exchange Commission on Form 10-Q.

(B) Reflects the  operating  results of the 12 properties  acquired  during 1997
    (including the two Acquired Properties mentioned elsewhere herein), less the
    operations of the three  properties  exchanged in connection with two of the
    acquisitions  during  1997 (as  discussed  in CRLP's Form 8-K filed July 21,
    1997).  The results  included as pro forma  adjustments for these properties
    include those operating results of the properties for the respective periods
    during which CRLP did not own the properties.  This column also reflects the
    net effect of the  application  of the equity and debt offering  proceeds to
    repay  portions  of  the  revolving  debt  incurred  in the  acquisition  of
    properties and certain mortgage debt. The interest saved from this repayment
    of debt is shown net of interest expense arising from debt incurred from the
    debt offerings.

    The pro forma statements of operations  include certain  adjustments made to
    the historical  financial results of the Acquired Properties as presented in
    the following table.

        preliminary allocation of the purchase price to land, land improvements,
        building,  and personal  property,  plus acquisition costs to date. Such
        allocation may be adjusted  pending  receipt of additional  information.
