              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.   Organization and Basis of Presentation

     The  unaudited  condensed  consolidated  financial  statements  include the
accounts of  Washington  Homes,  Inc.  and its  wholly-owned  subsidiaries  (the
"Company").

     The Company is principally  engaged in the business of the construction and
sale  of  residential  housing.  All  significant   intercompany   balances  and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

     The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with generally  accepted  accounting  principles for
interim  financial  information and SEC  regulations.  Accordingly,  they do not
include  all of  the  information  and  notes  required  by  generally  accepted
accounting  principles  for  complete  financial  statements.  In the opinion of
management,  all  adjustments  (consisting  only of normal  recurring  accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These condensed
consolidated  financial  statements  should  be read  in  conjunction  with  the
financial  statements  and notes thereto in the Company's  Annual Report for the
year ended July 31, 1996.  Operating  results for the three months ended October
31, 1996 are not necessarily  indicative of the results that may be expected for
the year ending July 31, 1997.

2.   Shareholders' Equity

     Common Stock.  The Company has  15,000,000  shares of Common Stock (voting)
authorized of which 7,000,000  shares were outstanding at October 31, 1996. Such
shares entitle the holder to one vote for each share of Common Stock held.

     Non-voting  Common Stock.  The Company has  1,100,000  shares of non-voting
common stock  authorized of which 942,763 were  outstanding at October 31, 1996.
Except for voting rights,  the non-voting common stock is substantially the same
as the  Company's  voting  common  stock.  The  non-voting  common  stock can be
converted into voting common stock on a share-for-share basis.

3.   Earnings Per Share

shares of common  stock and common  stock  equivalents  outstanding  during each
period.

lot contract  deposits and bonding to municipalities  for land development.  The
facilities  have maturity dates (which may be extended) of June 1997,  July 1997
and October 1997.  Borrowings under the facilities bear interest at prime (8.25%

was 5.375) plus either 1.97% or 2.50% and are collateralized by inventory.

collateralized by the related land under development.


ITEM 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations

Annual Operating Cycle

     The homebuilding  industry in general and the operations of the Company are
seasonal in nature.  The number of new orders signed is generally  higher in the
period from February through May compared to the balance of the year. Deliveries
peak in the fiscal quarter ending July 31 as a substantial  portion of homes for
which  contracts  are  written  during the fiscal  quarter  ending  April 30 are
delivered.  Delivery  volume is relatively  constant during the remainder of the
year. Backlog is the number of homes under contract but not delivered at the end
of the period.  Revenue is recognized upon the delivery of finished  homes.  The
following  table,  which  sets forth the  quarterly  operating  results  for the
Company during the last five fiscal quarters illustrates this cycle:

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended October 31, 1996 Compared to Three Months Ended
October 31, 1995

     Total  revenues  from homes  delivered  increased by 17.7% to $44.0 million
during the three  months  ended  October 31,  1996 as compared to $37.4  million
during the same three month period ended October 31, 1995 as the number of homes
delivered increased  to 281 homes  in the first quarter  of fiscal 1997 from 246

                                        9

<PAGE>

homes in the first  quarter of fiscal  1996.  The  increase in units was due, in
part,  to the sale and  leaseback of 20 model homes.  The average sales price of
homes delivered  increased to $156,600 for the first quarter of fiscal 1997 from
$152,000 for the first  quarter of fiscal 1996.  Changes in the average  selling
price of homes delivered may vary from period to period based on product mix and
pricing of specific communities.

     Revenues  and gross  profit from land sales were $1.7  million and $206,000
for the three  months  ended  October 31, 1996 as compared to $64,000 and $9,000
during the same three month period in fiscal 1996.

     Other income  increased  $599,000 to $965,000 during the three months ended
October 31,  1996 as  compared  to  $366,000  in the same three month  period in
fiscal 1996,  principally  due to the gain on sale of investment  securities and
income from joint ventures.

     Gross profit as a percentage of revenues from homes delivered  decreased to
18.3% during the three months  ended  October 31, 1996  compared to 20.2% during
the same three month  period in fiscal  1996.  The decrease in gross profit is a
result of delivering 20 model homes with lower than average gross profit margins
and the Company's pricing strategy to increase inventory turnover.

     Selling,  general and  administrative  expenses  increased $767,000 to $6.1
million during the three month period ended October 31, 1996 as compared to $5.4
million in the same three month  period in fiscal 1996,  primarily  due to costs
associated  with  increased  revenues.   In  addition,   selling,   general  and
administrative  expenses  decreased  slightly as a  percentage  of  homebuilding
revenues to 14.0% in the three months ended  October 31, 1996  compared to 14.4%
for the same period in fiscal 1996.

     Operating  income  (earnings  before  interest,  financing  fees and taxes)
increased to $2.9 million in the three months ended October 31, 1996 as compared
to $2.4 million for the same period in fiscal 1996 and increased as a percentage
of homebuilding revenues to 6.6% from 6.3% for the same period in fiscal 1996.

     Interest and financing fees  increased  slightly to $1.2 million during the
three  months  ended  October 31,  1996 as compared to $1.1  million in the same
three month period in fiscal 1996.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

     Funding  for  the  Company's  residential  building  and  land  development
activities is provided  principally by cash flows from operations and borrowings
from banks and other financial institutions.  The Company's capital needs depend
upon its sales volume, asset turnover, land purchases and inventory levels.

     At October 31,  1996,  the Company had cash and cash  equivalents  of $11.9
million of which $563,000 was restricted to collateralize  customer deposits and
other escrows. The remaining $11.3 million was available to the Company.

     The Company  had $100.6  million in  borrowing  availability  from  various
lending  institutions and land sellers of which $75.2 million was outstanding at
October 31, 1996.


     The Company  believes that it will be able to fund its  activities  through
fiscal 1997 through a combination of operating cash flow, existing cash balances
and borrowings  from banks and other lending  institutions.  Except for ordinary
expenditures  for the  construction  of homes and acquisition and development of
land,  the  Company  does  not  have  any  material   commitments   for  capital
expenditures at the present time.
