WILSHIRE REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST INC.
PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION - NARRATIVE FORMAT

     The following unaudited pro forma financial information of Wilshire Real
Estate Investment Trust Inc. ("WREIT" or the "Company") gives effect to the
acquisition and subsequent lease-back of properties from/to G.I. Joe's, Inc., as
if the transaction occurred as of January 1, 1997 with respect to the unaudited
pro forma operating information and as of September 30, 1998 with respect to the
unaudited pro forma financial condition information.

     The unaudited pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative
of the results that might have been achieved by WREIT if the acquisition had
been consummated as of the indicated dates. The unaudited pro forma financial
information should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated
financial statements of WREIT, together with the related notes thereto, which
were filed November 23, 1998 on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30,
1998.

                       -----------------------------------

     On April 20, 1998, Wilshire Real Estate Investment Trust Inc. (the
"Company") acquired five (5) retail buildings and an office
complex/warehouse/distribution center, totaling 444,864 square feet, from G.I.
Joe's, Inc., an unaffiliated third party. The purchase price was approximately
$28.5 million. Approximately $7.5 million of the purchase price was provided in
cash from the Company's initial public offering of common stock. The source of
the balance of the purchase price was a mortgage loan in the amount of
approximately $21.0 million from Credit Suisse First Boston Mortgage Capital
LLC. The purchase price was determined through arms length negotiations between
the Company and G.I. Joe's, Inc. The retail buildings are located in Salem, Oak
Grove, Lake Oswego and Gresham, all in the State of Oregon. The
office/warehouse/ distribution center is located in Wilsonville, Oregon. All of
the buildings are leased to G.I. Joe's, Inc. on competitive market rents under
fifteen year leases ending in April 2013. G.I. Joe's subleases 29,952 square
feet in Salem to Office Depot, Inc. The land at the Gresham location is under a
50- year ground lease (expiration in year 2037) with five (5) 10-year options
between G.I. Joe's and Gresham RPR Associates, an unaffiliated entity. A 10.90
acre tract available for future development by the Company is adjacent to the
office complex/warehouse/distribution center.

     As this transaction was completed as of September 30, 1998 and the
properties and related financing have been included in the statement of
financial condition at September 30, 1998, the pro forma effect of this
transaction would not be material. As such, the pro forma effect of this
transaction on the September 30, 1998 consolidated statement of financial
condition would only have resulted in an increase in total assets of $0.3
million due


<PAGE>



to income provided by operations of the properties, offset in part, by
depreciation of the properties. Liabilities and stockholders' equity would have
increased by $0.3 million due to the pro forma effect of adjusting retained
earnings for the net lease income, offset in part, by repayments of principal on
the mortgage loan.

     Additionally, the pro forma effect of this acquisition to the consolidated
operations of the Company for the year ended December 31, 1997 and nine months
ended September 30, 1998 would be as follows:

     o    Increase in real estate operations income by $0.8 million and $0.6
          million for the year ended December 31, 1997 and the nine months ended
          September 30, 1998, respectively.

     o   Increase in management fee expenses by $0.3 million and $0.2 million
         for the year ended December 31, 1997 and the nine months ended
         September 30, 1998, respectively.

     o   Increase in net income for the year ended December 31, 1997 by $0.5
         million. Basic and diluted earnings per share would have increased by
         $0.04.

     o   Increase in net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 by
         $0.4 million. Basic and diluted earnings per share would have increased
         by $0.03.
