     The depreciation adjustment of $56.6 million in the "1997 Acquired
     Properties" column in the statement of operations for the year ended
     December 31, 1997, is based on the cost to acquire the above listed
     properties, assuming that 10% of the purchase price is allocated to land
     and the depreciable lives are 40 years.  Depreciation is computed using
     the straight-line method.

                         Report of Independent Auditors


The Board of Trustees of
Equity Office Properties Trust


We have audited the accompanying Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses of
Denver Post Tower (the Property) as described in Note 2 for the year ended
December 31, 1997.  The Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses is the
responsibility of the Property's management.  Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on the Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses based on our audit.

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

The accompanying Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses was prepared for the
purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission, for inclusion in a Current Report on Form 8-K of Equity
Office Properties Trust as described in Note 1, and is not intended to be a
complete presentation of the Property's revenue and expenses.

In our opinion, the Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses referred to above
presents fairly, in all material respects, the revenue and certain expenses
described in Note 1 of the Property for the year ended December 31, 1997, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

             Notes to Statements of Revenue and Certain Expenses


1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying Statements of Revenue and Certain Expenses were prepared for
the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission for inclusion in a Current Report on Form 8-K of Equity
Office Properties Trust.  The accompanying statements are not representative of
the actual operations of the property, as described in Note 2, for the periods
presented nor indicative of future operations as certain expenses, primarily
depreciation, amortization and interest expense, which may not be comparable to
the expenses expected to be incurred by Equity Office Properties Trust in future
operations of the property, have been excluded.

Revenue and Expense Recognition

Revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related
leases.  Expenses are recognized in the period in which they are incurred.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Statements of Revenue and Certain Expenses in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of the revenue and
expenses during the reporting periods.  Actual results could differ from these
estimates.

Unaudited Interim Statement

In the opinion of management, the interim financial statement reflects all
adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim
period.  All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature.

2.  DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

The accompanying Statements of Revenue and Certain Expenses relate to the
operations of Denver Post Tower, an office building with approximately 580,000
rentable square feet, located in Denver, Colorado (the "Property"). The Property
was acquired for $52.8 million by Equity Office Properties Trust from an
unrelated party on April 21, 1998.




                                                                               3

        Notes to Statements of Revenue and Certain Expenses (continued)


3.  RENTALS

The Property has entered into tenant leases that provide for tenants to share in
the operating expenses and real estate taxes on a pro rata basis, as defined.

4.   RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Property was managed by an affiliated party to the seller.  The management
agreement provided for a fee of 2.5% of gross receipts and reimbursements of
payroll for on-site personnel.

5.   COMMITMENT

The Property is obligated under a 65 year air rights lease agreement expiring in
2047.  The lease provides for minimum payments of $400,000 per year, plus
contingent rent based on a percentage of cash flows received from the operations
of the Property, as defined in the lease.  No contingent rentals were due for
1997.






                                                                               4

                         Report of Independent Auditors


The Board of Trustees of
Equity Office Properties Trust

We have audited the accompanying combined Statement of Revenue and Certain
Expenses of 301 Howard Street and 215 Fremont Street (the Properties) described
in Note 2 for the year ended October 31, 1997.  The combined Statement of
Revenue and Certain Expenses is the responsibility of the Properties'
management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the combined
Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses based on our audit.

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

The accompanying combined Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses was prepared
for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission for inclusion in a Current Report on Form 8-K of Equity
Office  Properties Trust as described in Note 1, and is not intended to be a
complete presentation of the Properties' combined revenue and expenses.

In our opinion, the combined Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses referred
to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the combined revenue and
certain expenses described in Note 1 of the Properties for the year ended
October 31, 1997, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

We have audited the accompanying Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses of

December 31, 1997.  The Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses is the
responsibility of the Property's management.  Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on the Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses based on our audit.

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

The accompanying Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses was prepared for the
purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission for inclusion in a Current Report on Form 8-K of Equity
Office Properties Trust as described in Note 1, and is not intended to be a

In our opinion, the Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses referred to above
presents fairly, in all material respects, the revenue and certain expenses
described in Note 1 of the Property for the year ended December 31, 1997, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

          Notes to Combined Statements of Revenue and Certain Expenses

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying combined Statements of Revenue and Certain Expenses were
prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission for inclusion in a Current Report on Form 8-K
of Equity Office Properties Trust.  The accompanying financial statements are
not representative of the actual operations of the properties, as described in
Note 2, for the periods presented nor indicative of future operations as certain
expenses, primarily depreciation, amortization and interest expense, which may
not be comparable to the expenses expected to be incurred by Equity Office
Properties Trust in future operations of the properties, have been excluded.

Revenue and Expense Recognition

Revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related
leases.  Expenses are recognized in the period in which they are incurred.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the combined Statements of Revenue and Certain Expenses in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of the combined
revenue and expenses during the reporting periods.  Actual results could differ
from these estimates.

Unaudited Interim Statement

In the opinion of management, the interim financial statement reflects all
significant adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the
interim period.  All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature.

2.  DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTIES

The accompanying combined Statements of Revenue and Certain Expenses relate to
the combined operations of the Colonnade I and Colonnade II, a twin tower office
complex with approximately 607,000 rentable square feet, located in Dallas,
Texas, and the Walker Building, an office building with approximately 75,000
rentable square feet, located in Washington, D.C. (collectively the
"Properties").  The Properties have been presented on a combined basis because
the Properties were under common ownership and management.  It is expected that
Colonnade I and Colonnade II will be acquired for $90.0 million by Equity Office
Properties Trust from an unrelated party.  The Walker Building was acquired on
June 1, 1998 for $8.6 million by Equity Office Properties Trust from an
unrelated party.

                         Report of Independent Auditors


The Board of Trustees of
Equity Office Properties Trust


We have audited the accompanying Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses of
the Columbia Seafirst Center (the Property) as described in Note 2 for the year
ended December 31, 1997.  The Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses is the
responsibility of the Property's management.  Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on the Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses based on our audit.

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

The accompanying Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses was prepared for the
purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission, for inclusion in a Current Report on Form 8-K of Equity
Office Properties Trust as described in Note 1, and is not intended to be a
complete presentation of the Property's revenue and expenses.

In our opinion, the Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses referred to above
presents fairly, in all material respects, the revenue and certain expenses
described in Note 1 of the Property for the year ended December 31, 1997, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.


                                                               ERNST & YOUNG LLP
