             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

NOTE 1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The Consolidated Financial Statements of Tarragon Realty Investors, Inc., are
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Thus, they do not include all of the information
and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30,
1999, do not necessarily indicate the results to be expected for the full year
of 1999. For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial
Statements and Notes included in Tarragon's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 1998. Dollar amounts in tables are in thousands.

In November 1998, Tarragon merged with National Income Realty Trust, or NIRT,
and acquired Tarragon Realty Advisors, Inc., or TRA, its former advisor.
Because the merger was treated as a reverse acquisition of Tarragon by NIRT,
results of operations and cash flows for periods before the merger in this Form
10-Q are those of NIRT. Per share information has been restated retroactively
to give effect to the 1.97 to 1 exchange ratio in the merger. When we refer to
Tarragon in this Form 10-Q in relation to dates before the merger, we are
referring to NIRT.

NOTE 2.  REAL ESTATE

In January 1999, Tarragon sold part of the University Center parking lot for
$575,000 receiving cash of $557,000 and recognizing a gain of $338,000.

In April 1999, Tarragon sold the K-Mart Shopping Center in Thomasville,
Georgia, for $1.6 million and the Phoenix Apartments for $2.7 million,
recognizing gains totaling $440,000. We received cash of $2.9 million after
paying closing costs and the mortgage on K-Mart.

In May 1999, we sold One Turtle Creek Office Complex for $9.7 million,
recognizing a gain of $3.2 million based on a post-merger carrying value of
$5.9 million. This property had been purchased in March 1992 by Vinland
Property Trust, which merged with Tarragon in July 1997. The carrying value of
the property was $4.1 million before the November 1998 merger of Tarragon with
NIRT. We received cash of $3.2 million after paying closing costs and the
mortgage.

Also in May 1999, Tarragon sold about 40% of its K-Mart Shopping Center in
Charlotte, North Carolina, for $1.1 million, recognizing a gain of $326,000. As
part of this sale, the $1.2 million mortgage on the entire property was paid
off, which required $156,000 in addition to the proceeds of the sale.

In August 1999, we sold Woodcreek Apartments in Denver, Colorado, for $7
million, receiving cash of $2 million and recognizing a gain of $4.3 million.

In September 1999, we sold a parcel of land in Orangeburg, South Carolina, for
$93,000, receiving cash of $85,000. In connection with this sale, no loss was
recognized in excess of amounts previously recognized.

Tarragon purchased Orlando Central Park, a 138,574 square foot office building
in Orlando, Florida, in May 1999 for $9.5 million, $8 million of which was
financed with a mortgage.

NOTE 2.  REAL ESTATE (Continued)

In March 1999, we removed from consideration for sale four apartment properties
with a total of 740 units and net carrying value of $13.3 million. In June
1999, we removed from consideration for sale three apartment properties with a
total of 424 units and net carrying value of $7.3 million and one commercial
property with square footage of 72,065 and net carrying value of $3 million. In
September 1999, we removed from consideration for sale one apartment property
with 299 units with a net carrying value of $4.5 million. These properties are
included in "Real estate held for investment" in the accompanying September 30,
1999, Consolidated Balance Sheet. Tarragon made the decision not to pursue
selling these properties due to the availability of favorable long term fixed
rate financing. In June 1999, we decided to market for sale two commercial
properties with total square footage of 253,336 and net carrying value of $13.4
million. We ceased depreciating these properties in July 1999. In September
1999, we decided to market for sale one apartment property with 128 units and a
net carrying value of $2.6 million. We ceased depreciating this property in
October 1999. These properties are classified as held for sale at September 30,
1999. The estimated fair values of these properties exceeded their net carrying
values when we decided to remove them from consideration for sale or to market
them for sale, so no losses were recognized at that time.

NOTE 3.  INVESTMENTS IN AND ADVANCES TO PARTNERSHIPS (Continued)

In August 1999, Tarragon acquired an 80% interest in Merritt 8 with an
investment of $2.6 million. The partnership purchased Merritt 8 Corporate Park,
a 160,000 square foot office building in Stratford, Connecticut, at a cost of
$20 million of which $18 million was paid from a mortgage on the property. The
partnership also has a contract to acquire for $500,000 an adjacent 19 acre
parcel for future development. Tarragon shares ownership of the managing member
interest of Merritt 8 with an outside partner equally. As Tarragon does not
control Merritt 8, this investment is accounted for using the equity method.

At September 30, 1999, Tarragon has advanced $437,000 in costs to purchase land
in Ocoee, Florida, that will be used to construct an apartment community of
approximately 199 units. Tarragon has a 50% interest in Lake Lotta, the owning
partnership, that was formed in October 1999.

Below are summarized financial data for these partnerships as of and for the
nine months ended September 30, 1999 (unaudited):

NOTE 5.  NOTES AND INTEREST PAYABLE

During the first nine months of 1999, Tarragon closed separate mortgage loans
secured by nine properties totaling $21.1 million. After paying off $7.1
million in existing debt, establishing escrows for taxes, insurance, and
repairs, and paying closing costs, we received cash of $12.7 million.

In April 1999, Tarragon obtained a $6 million line of credit, secured by shares
of Tarragon's common stock valued at no less than two times the outstanding
balance of the line of credit. Some of the shares of common stock were pledged
by the family of William S. Friedman, President, Chief Executive Officer, and a
Director of Tarragon, as an accommodation to Tarragon, and the remaining were
treasury shares. We are currently replacing the shares pledged by the Friedman
family with treasury shares purchased under our share repurchase program.
Advances under the line of credit bear interest at the 30-day LIBOR plus 1.75%
per annum. Terms of the line of credit require monthly payments of interest
only, with the principal due in April 2001. We received $2.2 million in cash
from this transaction, after paying off two loans with the same lender which
were also secured by shares of our common stock. These loans included a $1.5
million note due in July 1999 and a $2.2 million note due in January 2000.

In May 1999, Tarragon obtained a $650,000 line of credit facility secured by
2.474 acres of land in Dallas, Texas, known as Lake Highlands land and treasury
stock valued at no less than $650,000. Advances under the line of credit bear
interest at prime. Terms of the line of credit require monthly payments of
interest only, with the principal due in May 2000. Tarragon received $614,000
cash from this transaction. The line of credit is guaranteed by Mr. Friedman.

Also during 1999, Tarragon received net advances of $816,000 from its line of
credit from affiliates of Mr. Friedman. Advances under the two year
arrangement, totaling $6.8 million at September 30, 1999, bear interest at
LIBOR plus 1% per annum and are due January 2001.

Extraordinary items in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for 1999 are
expenses related to early extinguishment of debt of $248,000 from prepayment
penalties and deferred financing expenses written off in connection with the
1999 refinancings.

NOTE 6.  EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings per share are computed based on the weighted average number of shares
of common stock outstanding for the three and nine month periods ended
September 30, 1999 and 1998.

The following table reconciles weighted average shares of common stock
outstanding used in the computation of earnings per share and earnings per
share - assuming dilution. The effect of stock options on weighted average
shares of common stock outstanding - assuming dilution for the three months
ended September 30, 1998, is not reflected below because their effect is
anti-dilutive.

NOTE 7.  GAIN ON INSURANCE SETTLEMENT

In December 1998, fire destroyed one building with eight units at Lake Point
Apartments, a 540-unit property in Memphis, Tennessee. Tarragon reached a
settlement with the insurance company for $458,000 and decided not to rebuild
the eight-unit building. After demolition costs, adjuster fees, and other
costs, as well as writing off a portion of the property's carrying value,
Tarragon recognized a gain of $231,000 on the insurance settlement.

NOTE 8.  LITIGATION SETTLEMENT

In July 1999, after reversal of a favorable lower court decision, Tarragon
settled an uninsured liability claim for $350,000.

NOTE 9.  INCOME TAXES

Tarragon has made no provision for federal income taxes because we believe we
qualify as a Real Estate Investment Trust, as defined under Sections 856
through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. We are considering
terminating our status as a REIT in the future. We have over $40 million in net
operating loss carry forwards expiring through 2016. If we terminate our status
as a REIT, appropriate provisions for income taxes will be made.

NOTE 10.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Tarragon is a party to claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of
business. We believe the results of these claims and litigation, either
individually or in total, will not have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial position, or results of operations.

NOTE 11.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In October 1999, Tarragon sold Woodbrier Apartments for $3 million, recognizing
a gain of $233,000. We received net cash proceeds of $778,000 after the
mortgage payoff and closing costs.

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

Please read this discussion along with the Consolidated Financial Statements
and Notes in Item 1.

Introduction

In November 1998, Tarragon merged with National Income Realty Trust, or NIRT,
and acquired Tarragon Realty Advisors, Inc., or TRA, its former advisor.
Because the merger was treated as a reverse acquisition of Tarragon by NIRT,
results of operations and cash flows for periods before the merger in this form
10-Q are those of NIRT. Per share information has been restated retroactively
to give effect to the 1.97 to 1 exchange ratio in the merger. When we refer to
Tarragon in this Form 10-Q in relation to dates before the merger, we are
referring to NIRT.

At September 30, 1999, Tarragon directly owned 74 real estate properties, with
14 held for sale, located throughout the United States, but concentrated in the
Southeast and Southwest. These properties include 49 apartment complexes, 13
shopping centers, five office buildings, one office park, one combination
office/retail/medical facility, four parcels of land, and one single-family
residence. Tarragon also held interests in 16 unconsolidated joint ventures or
partnerships. Through these investments, we own interests in 22 apartment
communities, three of which are under construction and one on which
construction is expected to begin in the fourth quarter of 1999, and four
office buildings.

All but nine of Tarragon's directly-owned properties and all properties owned
by the joint ventures serve as collateral on mortgages. In the past, Tarragon
held mortgage loans as investments, but we now make such loans only in
connection with the sale of real estate. Because most of these loans have been
paid off, they are no longer a significant part of our operations.

Our long term objective is to increase the value of our investments in real
estate by increasing operating income. Increased operating income results in
higher property values and provides a source for increased dividends to
shareholders. We expect intensive management of and consistent capital
improvements to our properties to contribute to increasing the operating
income.

Inflation works both for and against Tarragon's operations. A benefit of
inflation is that revenue from rentals of its properties generally tracks
increases in inflation. The same is true, however, for property operating
expenses. A benefit of the present low rate of inflation is that interest rates
on new borrowings are now lower than previously experienced. This allows for
larger loans and/or lower debt service payments, thus improving Tarragon's
liquidity.

Tarragon also focuses on improving the quality of its portfolio with selective
and opportunistic acquisitions, concentrating on older, under-managed, and
under-performing multifamily projects in geographic regions where we presently
operate. Properties presently owned that we believe have peaked in value or
cannot operate efficiently within our portfolio have been placed on the market
for sale. While we have identified properties we want to sell, market
conditions will determine if any of them will actually be sold.

We intend to continue investing in construction of new apartment properties,
either directly or through joint ventures, relying on the strength and
experience of our partners in regions or property types where we have little
experience. To the extent we invest in construction projects, we are subject to
the usual business risks associated with development activities, such as cost
overruns and delays.

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

In addition to raising capital through operating income and sale of properties,
Tarragon expects that new borrowings and refinancings will continue to provide
funds for investment.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Tarragon held cash and cash equivalents of $5.3 million at September 30, 1999,
compared to $2.4 million at December 31, 1998. Our principal sources of cash
have been property operations, property sales, and proceeds from borrowings,
including refinancing of existing debt and new debt incurred as part of
property acquisitions. We believe these sources will continue to meet our cash
requirements, including debt payments, property maintenance and improvements,
development costs on construction properties, and continuation of dividends.

In 1999, Tarragon received $8.6 million from the sale of four properties, one
parcel of land and portions of two shopping centers.

We also purchased a 138,574 square foot office building in May 1999 for $9.5
million, $8 million of which was financed with a mortgage.

Tarragon invested $13.1 million in capital improvements to its properties
during 1999. Of this amount, $7.2 million was construction costs for The
Vintage at Legacy Lakes, $4.4 million of which was funded by a construction
loan. We expect to spend $15.5 million on construction of this property during
the rest of 1999 and in 2000, with $14.8 million of that to be paid from the
construction loan. We also plan to spend $1.8 million for capital improvements
on our other properties during the rest of 1999.

In 1999, Tarragon made net contributions and advances of $11.6 million to its
joint venture investments; $5.6 million went to Tarragon Stoneybrook
Apartments, L.L.C., which is constructing a 396-unit luxury apartment community
in Orlando, Florida. The remaining development costs will be paid from a
construction loan. Tarragon advanced $3.2 million to Ansonia Apartments, L.P.,
for major renovations to four of its properties, and expects to fund another
$500,000 on these improvements during the rest of 1999. In August 1999,
Tarragon invested $2.6 million in a new partnership, Merritt 8 Acquisitions,
L.L.C., that purchased a 160,000 square foot office building in Stratford,
Connecticut.

New permanent loans on partnership properties have allowed Tarragon to receive
repayment on its advances and accrued interest. In June 1999, $1.8 million was
received from Tarragon Savannah, L.P. In September 1999, we received $2.1
million from RI Windsor, Ltd., and $900,000 from Danforth National
Apartments,Ltd. We expect to receive $500,000 from RI Panama City, Ltd., before
the end of 1999.

During 1999, Tarragon obtained new mortgage financing totaling $21.1 million
and received cash proceeds of $12.7 million after paying off existing debt of
$7.1 million, establishing escrow accounts, and paying closing costs.
Additionally, Tarragon has obtained new line of credit facilities during 1999
of $6.7 million, receiving cash of $2.8 million after paying off existing loans
of $3.7 million and paying closing costs. We have made other principal payments
of $3.4 million during this period. Mortgage principal payments totaling $7.8
million are due in the rest of 1999, including $7 million of balloon payments.
We intend to either pay off the loans as they come due or extend the due dates
while seeking to obtain long term refinancing. We believe we can arrange new
financing as needed, but cannot assure that we will be successful in our
efforts or that the timing of new financing will coincide with the due date of
maturing loans.

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

Liquidity and Capital Resources (Continued)

During 1999, Tarragon received $816,000 of advances on its line of credit from
affiliates of William S. Friedman, President, Chief Executive Officer, and a
Director of Tarragon.

In 1999, Tarragon has repurchased 395,132 of its shares of common stock at a
total cost of $4.5 million. In March 1999, the Board of Directors authorized the
repurchase of up to 500,000 shares of its common stock, of which 349,592 had
been purchased at September 30, 1999. Subsequently, the Board authorized the
repurchase of an additional 1 million shares.

Cash dividends to shareholders of $2.7 million, or $.315 per share, have been
paid in 1999. We have paid regular quarterly cash distributions since September
1993.

Results of Operations

Tarragon's net income of $2.6 million and $4.3 million for the quarter and the
nine months ended September 30, 1999, increased by $3.8 million and $4.2
million over the net loss of $1.2 million and net income of $94,000 for the
same periods in 1998. The components of the increases in net income are
discussed in the following paragraphs.

Net rental income (rental revenue less property operating expenses) increased
to $8.3 million and $26.5 million for the quarter and nine months ended
September 30, 1999 from $6.3 million and $19 million for the same periods of
1998.

   Multifamily Properties

   Tarragon's directly owned multifamily properties account for 78% of its real
   estate and include 9,206 operating apartment units at September 30, 1999.
   Net rental income from those properties increased by $942,000, or 18%, and
   $4.3 million, or 27%, for the three and nine month periods through September
   30, 1999, as compared to 1998. Increases of $720,000 and $2.8 million were
   because of properties acquired in 1998. Properties sold in 1998 and 1999
   caused decreases of $127,000 and $236,000. Higher rents and higher occupancy
   rates at properties held in both years, as well as elimination of management
   fees on most of our properties, accounted for the rest of the increases.
   Management fees were eliminated after Tarragon acquired TRA in November
   1998.

   Commercial Properties

   Tarragon owns commercial properties with 1.9 million square feet at
   September 30, 1999. These properties had increased net rental income of
   $608,000 and $1.9 million for the three and nine month periods through
   September 30, 1999, as compared to 1998. Properties acquired in 1998 and
   1999 accounted for $519,000 and $1.5 million of the increases. Declines of
   $40,000 and $149,000 resulted from properties sold in 1998 and 1999. The
   remainder of the increases came from fewer vacancy and other rental losses
   for properties held in both years, for which physical occupancy levels have
   remained relatively stable.

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

Results of Operations (Continued)

Equity in earnings of partnerships increased by $479,000 and decreased by
$376,000 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1999, as
compared to the same periods of 1998. The increase in the third quarter
occurred because partnership properties that were in development or lease-up in
1998 are now complete and operating. The decrease for the nine month period
resulted from $873,000 income recorded in 1998 from the refinancing of 801
Pennsylvania Avenue, representing interest on our advances and 50%
participation in excess financing proceeds. This decrease was partially offset
by improvement in operations from the properties in development or lease-up in
1998.

Interest expense for the three and nine month periods through September 30,
1999, increased by $1.2 million and $4.1 million over the same periods in 1998.
Property acquisitions in 1998 and 1999 caused increases of $793,000 and $2.2
million. In addition, increased interest expense of $573,000 and $2.1 million
for the same periods occurred because mortgage loan balances have increased by
$46.4 million since December 31, 1997, from long term and interim mortgage
financing, including advances under lines of credit. Decreases of $85,000 and
$238,000 in interest expense resulted from properties sold in 1998 and 1999.

Depreciation expense increased by $1.1 million and $2.6 million for the three
and nine month periods through September 30, 1999, compared to 1998. Of both
increases, $358,000 resulted from the reclassification of one property from
held for sale to held for investment effective September 30, 1999. An
additional $510,000 of the increase for the nine month period resulted from the
reclassification of four properties from held for sale to held for investment
effective June 30, 1999. The rest of the increases are due primarily to the
properties acquired in 1998 and 1999.

Because Tarragon acquired TRA in 1998, we no longer pay advisory fees. The
advisory fee was an incentive fee of 16% of adjusted funds from operations, as
defined in the advisory agreement. See "Funds from Operations" below for the
calculation and definition of funds from operations.

General and administrative expenses increased by $1.8 million and $5.5 million
for the three and nine month periods through September 30, 1999, compared to
1998. Most of those increases occurred because Tarragon is now paying costs
previously borne by its advisor instead of paying advisory fees, property
management fees, and acquisition and refinancing fees that were paid under the
advisory agreement.

During the first nine months of 1999, Tarragon had gains of $8.6 million from
sale of four properties and portions of two other properties. Tarragon also had
a gain of $231,000 from an insurance settlement and incurred an expense of
$350,000 in a litigation settlement.

During the first nine months of 1998, Tarragon had gains of $1.3 million from
sale of one property and $123,000 from sale of marketable equity securities.

Extraordinary expenses of $248,000 during the nine months through September 30,
1999, and $919,000 in the same period in 1998 were incurred because of
prepayment penalties and write-off of deferred financing expenses related to
refinancings of mortgage debt.

</TABLE>

Tarragon considers FFO to be an appropriate measure of the performance of an
equity REIT. FFO, as defined by the National Association of Real Estate
Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, equals net income (loss), computed in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles, excluding gains (or losses) from
debt restructuring and sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization of
real estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and
joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures
are calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. The amortization of deferred
financing costs is not added back to net income (loss) in our calculation,
consistent with our historical method of calculating FFO. In October 1999,
NAREIT clarified the definition of FFO. Consistent with this clarification,
nonrecurring items that are not defined as extraordinary under generally
accepted accounting principles will be reflected in the calculation of FFO.
Extraordinary items and gains and losses from sales of depreciable operating
property will continue to be excluded from FFO. The clarification of FFO is
effective January 1, 2000. We will report FFO using the clarification beginning
in the first quarter of 2000. We believe that FFO is useful to investors as a
measure of the performance of an equity REIT because, along with cash flows
from operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities, it
provides investors an understanding of our ability to incur and service debt
and to make capital expenditures. We also believe that a clear understanding of
our operating results is best gained by examining FFO along with net income
(loss) as shown in the Consolidated Financial Statements included at Item 1.
FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles, and is not an alternative to net
income as an indication of our operating performance or to cash flow as a
measure of liquidity, nor is it necessarily indicative of cash available to
fund cash needs and cash dividends. Our calculation of FFO may be different
from the methods used by other REITs and, therefore, may not be comparable to
other REITs.

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

Funds From Operations (Continued)

Included in FFO for the nine months ended September 30, 1998, are gains of
$123,000 from sale of investments in marketable equity securities.

Allowance for Estimated Losses and Provisions for Losses

Tarragon periodically reviews the carrying values of properties held for sale.
We are required by generally accepted accounting principles not to carry a
property held for sale at greater than its cost or its estimated fair value
less costs to sell. In instances where a property's estimated fair value less
costs to sell is less than its carrying value at the time of evaluation, we
provide an allowance for loss by making a charge against operations. Our review
of properties held for sale generally includes selective site inspections,
comparing the property's current rents to market rents, reviewing the
property's expenses and maintenance requirements, discussions with the property
manager, and a review of the surrounding area. We may make adjustment of
estimated fair value based on future reviews.

Tarragon also evaluates its properties held for investment for impairment
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that a property's carrying
value may not be recoverable. This evaluation generally consists of reviewing
the property's cash flow and current and projected market conditions, as well
as changes in general and local economic conditions. If we conclude that a
property has been impaired, we reduce its carrying value by making a charge
against current earnings to reduce the carrying value of the property to its
estimated fair value.

Environmental Matters

Under federal, state, and local environmental laws, ordinances, and
regulations, Tarragon may be liable for removal or remediation costs, as well
as other costs (such as fines or injuries to persons and property) where our
employees may have arranged for removal, disposal, or treatment of hazardous or
toxic substances. In addition, environmental laws impose liability for release
of asbestos-containing materials into the air, and third parties can seek
recovery from Tarragon for personal injury associated with those materials. We
are not aware of any liability relating to these matters that would have a
material adverse effect on our business, financial position, or results of
operations.

Tax Matters

As discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
1998, we have elected and, in our opinion, qualified to be taxed as a Real
Estate Investment Trust, as that term is defined in Sections 856 through 860 of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. A REIT is required to distribute at least
95% of its REIT taxable income, plus 95% of its net income from foreclosure
property, as defined in Section 857 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, on an
annual basis to shareholders. We are currently considering terminating our
status as a REIT. If we do so, we do not expect this to impact our current
dividend policy.

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

Impact of Year 2000 Issues

The change of the year from 1999 to 2000 presents problems for business and
individual users of many kinds of computer software and hardware. The
well-publicized issue of calculations made using a two-digit field rather than
four arose from computer programs with date-sensitive software that may
recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. In
addition, 2000 is a special case leap year. The failure to determine an
accurate date in 2000 can result in system failures or miscalculations and
disruptions of operations, including a temporary inability to process
transactions, process invoices, or engage in other normal business activities.
Tarragon has taken steps to address Year 2000 issues.

State of Readiness

   Some of Tarragon's computer equipment and software were found not to be Year
   2000 compliant. We have installed Year 2000 compliant equipment and have
   upgraded our software to Year 2000 compliant versions. These upgrades,
   completed in September 1999, were necessary because of advances in
   technology but were accelerated to assure that our computer systems will be
   ready as the year turns. Other equipment with embedded computer controls,
   such as elevators in commercial buildings, sprinkler systems, security
   gates, and security alarms, may also be at risk, but we believe any problems
   in those areas will not have a material effect on our business.

   We have determined that external property management companies that manage
   several of our properties have made similar upgrades for their particular
   systems and any business impact from their non-compliance is likely to be
   minimal to non-existent.

   Other third parties with which we do business, such as utility companies,
   banks, and phone companies, faced the same issue. We believe there is little
   risk that these companies will not be Year 2000 compliant.

Costs to Address Year 2000 Issues

   Tarragon and its acquired subsidiaries have spent approximately $25,000
   replacing noncompliant hardware and approximately $120,000 for accounting
   software conversion, including consulting fees. We are also upgrading the
   accounting/property management software at our properties. The property
   software was provided free of charge by the software manufacturer. We expect
   to spend another $24,000 for software conversion, primarily for consulting
   and training, and $5,000 for additional hardware.

Risks of Year 2000 Issues

   Material risks of the Year 2000 issue include the following. If our computer
   systems and software were not upgraded prior to 2000, our ability to provide
   timely financial information would be impaired. Our ability to provide
   financial information would also be affected if computer systems of our
   banks were not Year 2000 compliant. Tenants at our properties could be
   inconvenienced or harmed if the computer systems of utility companies which
   provide services to the properties are not Year 2000 compliant. However, we
   believe it unlikely that banks and utility companies will not be Year 2000
   compliant.

Impact of Year 2000 Issues  (Continued)

Contingency Plans

    Based on our perceived needs, our contingency plan is to have our
    information systems and property support staff completely available for the
    first two weeks of 2000. During this time, property management personnel
    will be prepared to identify and resolve any unusual events that might
    occur.

Risks Associated with Forward-Looking Statements Included in this Form 10-Q

This Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 which are intended to be covered by the safe harbors
created in those Acts. These statements include our plans and objectives for
future operations, including plans and objectives for capital expenditures on
our properties. The forward-looking statements we have made are based on our
current expectations and involve risks and uncertainties. We made assumptions
that involve our judgment with respect to future economic, competitive, and
market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or
impossible to predict accurately and many of which are not in our control.
Although we believe the assumptions are reasonable, any of them could be
inaccurate, and, therefore, we make no assurance that the forward-looking
statements we have made will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant
uncertainties inherent in our forward-looking statements, the inclusion of such
information should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other
person that our objectives and plans will be achieved.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Tarragon is exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates which may
adversely affect its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.
In seeking to minimize the risks from interest rate fluctuations, we manage our
exposures through regular operating and financing activities. We do not use
financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes.

At September 30, 1999, Tarragon had about $106.2 million of variable rate debt.
The primary base rate is the 30-day LIBOR. Using this balance of debt, if LIBOR
or any other indexes on which the rates are based, increased by 100 basis
points (1%), our earnings and cash flows would decrease by $1.1 million. On the
other hand, if interest rates decreased by 100 basis points, our earnings and
cash flows would increase by $1.1 million.

The estimated fair value of Tarragon's variable rate debt at September 30,
1999, is $106.2 million. A 100 basis point increase in interest rates would
result in a $1.3 million decrease in the fair value of that debt, and a 100
basis point decrease in interest rates would result in a $1.3 million increase
in the fair value of the debt.

Tarragon has entered into reverse repurchase agreements with an investment bank
for three mortgage-backed securities, or MBSs, secured separately by mortgages
on three of our properties. If market interest rates increase, the value of the
MBSs generally decreases, which would require us to deposit more funds with the
investment bank (assuming no change in margin requirements). Decreases in
market interest rates generally increase the value of the MBSs and allow the
release to us of margin funds held by the investment bank (again assuming no
change in margin requirements). The repurchase price of the MBSs bears interest
at a variable rate based on LIBOR. An increase in interest rates of 100 basis
points would result in a decrease of $210,000 in our earnings and a decrease of
$1.2 million in our cash flow. A 100 basis point decrease in interest rates
would result in an increase of $213,000 in our earnings and an increase of
$922,000 in our cash flow.
