                       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
One Lafayette Centre (the Property) as described in Note 2 for the year ended
December 31, 1996.  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 the 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 of
the Property described in Note 2 for the year ended December 31, 1996, 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 the Current Report on Form 8-K of Equity   
Office Properties Trust.  The accompanying statements are not  representative of
the actual operations of the Property 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 One Lafayette Centre, an office building with approximately
314,634 rentable square feet, located in Washington, D.C. (the "Property"). It
is expected that the Property will be acquired for $81.7 million by Equity
Office Properties Trust from an unrelated party.

The Board of Trustees of
Equity Office Properties Trust

We have audited the accompanying combined Statement of Revenue and Certain
Expenses of the PPM Properties (the Properties) as described in Note 2 for the
year ended December 31, 1996.  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 the 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

certain expenses of the Properties described in Note 2 for the year ended
December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

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.

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.
