ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS
Apartment Community Acquisitions:
- ---------------------------------
Gables Realty Limited Partnership (the "Operating Partnership" or the "Company")
is the entity through which Gables Residential Trust (the "Parent Company"), a
self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust ("REIT"),
conducts substantially all of its business and owns (either directly or through
subsidiaries) substantially all of its assets. The Parent Company is currently
an 83.3% economic owner of the Operating Partnership (excluding the Parent
Company's direct or indirect ownership of 100% of the Operating Partnership's
Series A Preferred Units). The Parent Company controls the Operating Partnership
through Gables GP, Inc. ("GGPI"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Parent
Company and the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership (this
structure is commonly referred to as an umbrella partnership REIT or "UPREIT").
The term "Company" as used herein means Gables Realty Limited Partnership and
its subsidiaries.
On May 28, 1997, the Company acquired Wood Mill Apartments, a multifamily
apartment community located in Atlanta, Georgia, comprised of 438 apartment
homes, from The Prudential Insurance Company of America for an aggregate
purchase price of $29.1 million. On September 4, 1997, the Company acquired
Jefferson Forest Apartments, a multifamily apartment community located in
Houston, Texas, comprised of 404 apartment homes, from Jefferson Forest, L.P.
for an aggregate purchase price of $22.6 million. On September 26, 1997, the
Company acquired Jefferson at Vinings Apartments, a multifamily apartment
community located in Atlanta, Georgia, comprised of 310 apartment homes, from
Jefferson at Vinings Apartments, L.P. for an aggregate purchase price of $27.5
million. On September 30, 1997, the Company acquired The Crescent Apartments, a
multifamily apartment community located in Houston, Texas, comprised of 324
apartment homes, from Crescent Apartments Limited Partnership for an aggregate
purchase price of $22.6 million. The acquisition costs of Wood Mill Apartments,
Jefferson Forest Apartments, Jefferson at Vinings Apartments, and The Crescent
Apartments (collectively, the "Properties") were financed through borrowings
under the Company's $175 million unsecured revolving credit facility with
Wachovia Bank of Georgia, N.A., as agent bank, and four other participant banks.
The contracts related to the acquisition of the Properties were negotiated at
arms length between the Company and representatives of the respective sellers.
In assessing the Properties acquired, the Company's management considered the
existing leases, which are the primary source of revenue, the occupancy rates,
the competitive nature of the markets and comparative rental rates. Furthermore,
current and anticipated operating expenses, maintenance and repair costs, real
estate taxes and capital improvement requirements were evaluated. Management is
not aware of any material factors that would cause the reported financial
information in Item 7. to be misleading.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To the Partners of Gables Realty Limited Partnership:
We have audited the accompanying statement of excess of revenues over specific
operating expenses of Wood Mill Apartments (the "Property") for the year ended
December 31, 1996. This financial statement is the responsibility of the
Property's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this
financial statement 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 excess of revenues over specific
operating expenses is free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the statement. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used
and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
As described in Note 2, this financial statement excludes certain expenses that
would not be comparable with those resulting from the operations of the Property
after acquisition by the Company. The accompanying financial statement was
prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission and is not intended to be a complete
presentation of the Property's revenues and expenses.
In our opinion, the financial statement referred to above presents fairly, in
all material respects, the excess of revenues over specific operating expenses
(exclusive of expenses described in Note 2) of Wood Mill Apartments for the year
ended December 31, 1996 in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.
