                            RESORTQUEST INTERNATIONAL

     ResortQuest   International,   Inc.  is  a  leading  provider  of  vacation
condominium  and home  rentals in premier  destination  resorts  throughout  the
United States.  We commenced  operations on May 26, 1998,  concurrently with our
initial public offering and the  acquisitions of 12 leading  vacation rental and
property  management  companies  and one leading  vacation  rental and  property
management software company.  Since that time, we have acquired three additional
vacation rental and property management companies.

     We  currently  manage  approximately  11,300 condominiums and homes in nine
states  and in Canada. These condominiums and homes are located in the following
beach and island and mountain resorts:
    

   
     BEACH AND ISLAND RESORTS                    MOUNTAIN RESORTS
- ------------------------------------------    ---------------------------
    The Hawaiian Islands                      Aspen, Colorado
    Bethany Beach, Delaware                   Breckenridge, Colorado
    Destin, Florida                           Telluride, Colorado
    Gulf Shores, Alabama                      Park City, Utah
    Nantucket, Massachusetts                  Whistler, British Columbia
    The Outer Banks, North Carolina
    Sanibel and Captiva Islands, Florida
    St. Simons Island, Georgia
    

   

The company also manages 11 hotels,  with an  aggregate of  approximately  1,700
hotel rooms located primarily in the Hawaiian Islands.

     ResortQuest  provides  a wide range of  services  to both  vacationers  and
property owners.  Because of the variety of our resort locations  throughout the
United  States and Canada and the  diversity  of rental  prices  throughout  our
rental  pool,  we are able to  target a broad  range of  vacationers,  including
families, couples and individuals. For vacationers, we offer the convenience and
accommodations  of a  condominium  or home, as well as many of the amenities and
services of a hotel.  Vacation  condominium  and home  rentals  generally  offer
greater  space and  convenience  than resort  hotel  rooms,  including  separate
living,  sleeping and eating quarters.  As a result,  vacationers generally have
more  privacy and greater  flexibility  in a vacation  condominium  or home.  We
typically  offer such services as convenient  check-in and  check-out,  frequent
housekeeping and cleaning and emergency maintenance assistance.  In addition, in
most of our markets,  we provide  specialized  concierge-type  services  such as
arranging  golf tee times,  purchasing  ski lift  tickets and making  restaurant
reservations.

     For property owners,  we offer a comprehensive  set of services,  including
marketing and rental services,  maintenance and security.  Our primary source of
revenue is property  rental fees,  which are charged to the property owners as a
percentage of the vacationers' total rental price. In addition, in many markets,
we provide  traditional  real estate  brokerage  services  for  property  owners
seeking to sell their condominiums and homes.

     On a pro forma  basis for the year ended  December  31,  1997,  ResortQuest
generated total revenues of  approximately  $83.2 million,  which includes $43.6
million of revenues from property rental fees, and net income of $7.0 million.


                                  OUR STRATEGY

BUSINESS STRATEGY

     The vacation rental and property  management  industry is highly fragmented
and  inefficient.  There are  approximately  3,000 vacation  rental and property
management companies in the United States. Most vacation rental condominiums and
homes are  managed by and booked  through  local  vacation  rental and  property
management  firms.  Their  principal  means of  attracting  property  owners and
vacationers are by referral, word of mouth, limited local advertising and direct
mailings.  Consequently,  most  vacationers  make rental  choices  with  limited
information and, as a result,  face great uncertainty  concerning the quality of
their  rental.  We  believe  this  presents  a  significant  market  penetration
opportunity for a well-capitalized company offering a large, national network of
high quality vacation condominiums and homes.

     ResortQuest's objective is to enhance its position as a leading provider of
premier  destination  resort  condominium  and  home  rentals  by  pursuing  the
following business strategy:
    

     o    NATIONAL  BRAND.   Developing  a  national  brand  based  on  offering
          vacationers  an  extensive  network of high quality  condominiums  and
          homes in premier destination resorts throughout the United States;

     o    SUPERIOR  CUSTOMER  SERVICE.  Offering  vacationers  superior customer
          service with the  convenience and  accommodations  of a condominium or
          home as well as many of the amenities and services of a hotel;

     o    INCREASED  RENTAL INCOME.  Enhancing  value for  condominium  and home
          owners with strategies designed to increase occupancy and rental rates
          resulting in increased rental income;

   

     o    MANAGEMENT'S  EXPERIENCE.  Relying on the industry experience of David
          Sullivan,  Chairman  and Chief  Executive  Officer,  who was the Chief
          Operating  Officer  of  Promus  Hotel  Corporation,  David L.  Levine,
          President and Chief Operating Officer, who was the President and Chief
          Operating  Officer of Equity Inns,  Inc., and the other members of the
          Company's Senior Management, each of whom have extensive experience in
          the hotel and resort industries; and

     o    LOCAL EXPERTISE.  Maintaining the local relationships and expertise of
          the  management  teams of the Operating  Companies,  each of which has
          extensive experience in their respective resort areas.

GROWTH STRATEGY

     We believe  ResortQuest can achieve  significant growth both internally and
through an active acquisition program.

     INTERNAL  GROWTH.  The primary  elements of the Company's  internal  growth
strategy include:

     o    NATIONAL  MARKETING   STRATEGY.   Implementing  a  national  marketing
          strategy  emphasizing:  (1) cross-selling to existing  customers;  (2)
          bringing in new  customers;  and (3)  increasing  the use of marketing
          channels  such as the  world  wide web,  travel  agents  and  national
          printmedia, which are difficult for local vacation rental and property
          management companies to use in a cost-effective manner;
    


                                        6

<PAGE>


   
     o    CAPITALIZE ON TECHNOLOGY.  Capitalizing on technology by utilizing the
          technological expertise of First Resort, a Founding Company, to create
          a  comprehensive  web site  that  (1)  includes  all of the  Company's
          condominium,  home  and  hotel  rentals  and (2)  permits  vacationers
          ultimately  to  view  photographs  and  detailed  floor  plans  of the
          Company's rental properties and to make reservations and payments;
    

     o    GROWTH  WITHIN  EXISTING  MARKETS.   Expanding  its  market  share  of
          condominium, home and hotel room rentals in existing markets; and

     o    PROFIT  MARGIN  EXPANSION.  Pursuing  opportunities  for profit margin
          expansion via cost  synergies and  additional  revenue  sources.  This
          strategy includes the  implementation  of best practices  developed by
          tapping the industry experience of the management teams in each of the
          Operating Companies.

   
     ACQUISITIONS.  We also intend to build a national market  presence  through
strategic  acquisitions.  While we will seek to acquire the leading companies in
each new market,  we also plan to pursue tuck-in  acquisitions  through which we
can expand our  selection of  condominiums  and homes  available for rent in our
existing markets.  We believe that the opportunity to join with ResortQuest will
be  attractive  to many  vacation  rental  and  property  management  companies.
ResortQuest expects to offer acquisition candidates:
    

     o    affiliation with a national brand;

     o    the ability to  cross-sell to customers of other  vacation  rental and
          property management companies;

     o    the  ability  to  increase  liquidity  as a  result  of our  financial
          strength as a public company; and

     o    the   ability   to   increase   profitability   as  a  result  of  the
          centralization of certain administrative functions and other economies
          of scale.


                         RECENT RESORTQUEST DEVELOPMENTS

   
     Since the completion of its initial public  offering and the acquisition of
the  Founding  Companies  on  May  26,  1998,  ResortQuest  has  acquired  three
additional vacation rental and property management companies. The acquisition in
July 1998 of Plantation Resort Management,  Inc.,  ("Plantation Resort") located
in Gulf  Shores,  Alabama,  marked  our  entry  into a new  resort  destination.
Plantation  Resort manages 378 rental units.  Also in July 1998, we expanded our
presence  in  Whistler,   British  Columbia  by  acquiring   Whistler  Exclusive
Properties ("Whistler Exclusive"). Whistler Exclusive manages 46 rental units.

     On September  30, 1998,  ResortQuest  completed the  acquisition  of Abbott
Realty  Services,  Inc.  ("Abbott  Resorts"),  the largest  property  management
company in Florida.  Abbott Resorts manages approximately 2,400 condominiums and
home rentals  located in the Gulf Coast cities of Fort Walton Beach,  Destin and
South Walton, Florida. In addition, Abbott Resorts operates the largest vacation
home and condominium real estate sales organization in the Emerald Coast area of
Florida.

     The Company's  executive offices are located at 530 Oak Court Drive,  Suite
360, Memphis, TN 38117, and its telephone number is (901) 762-0600.

     and notes  thereto  included  elsewhere  in this  Prospectus.  The  Company
     expects to realize  certain  savings  as a result of the  consolidation  of
     insurance, employee benefits and other general and administrative expenses.
     The  Company  cannot  quantify  these  savings  accurately  at  this  time.
     Consequently, the Company is unable to determine at this time whether these
     savings  will be  material  or not.  Any such  savings may be offset by the
     costs of being a publicly traded company and the incremental  costs related
     to the  Company's  new  management  team.  However,  these costs,  like the
     savings that they offset,  cannot be  quantified  accurately  at this time.
     Neither these  anticipated  savings nor these  anticipated  costs have been
     included in the pro forma combined financial information of the Company.

(2)  The unaudited pro forma combined  statement of operations  data include pro
     forma (i) additional  revenue that ResortQuest  would have realized related
     to certain  property  management  contracts with affiliates of the Founding
     Companies and Abbott Resorts (at contractual rates that were not reflective
     of market  conditions),  (ii)  reductions  in salary,  bonuses and benefits
     derived from contractual agreements which establish the compensation of the
     owners and certain  key  employees  of the  Founding  Companies  and Abbott
     Resorts (the "Compensation  Differential"),  (iii) effects of the exclusion
     of certain  non-operating  assets and the  assumption  of or  retirement of
     certain  liabilities  (including interest expense) that will be retained by
     certain stockholders of the Founding Companies, and (iv) estimated interest
     expense related to the debt assumed in conjunction with ResortQuest funding
     the cash portion of the purchase price related to the acquisition of Abbott
     Resorts.   See  notes  to  the  Unaudited  Pro  Forma  Combined   Financial
     Statements.

(3)  Reflects  amortization  of goodwill (which is not deductible for income tax
     purposes)  recorded as a result of the  Combinations and the acquisition of
     Abbott Resorts over a 40-year  period,  except for the goodwill  related to
     First  Resort  (defined  herein),  which will be  amortized  over a 15-year
     period,  and computed on the basis  described in the notes to the Unaudited
     Pro Forma Combined Financial Statements.

(4)  Includes  the  provision  for federal and state  income  taxes  relating to
     converting certain operations to C Corporation status and including the tax
     impact of pro forma adjustments.

(5)  Includes (i) 6,119,656  shares issued to owners of the Founding  Companies;
     (ii)  3,134,630  shares issued to the management and founders of RQI; (iii)
     6,670,000  shares  representing  the number of shares  sold in the  initial
     public offering  necessary to pay the cash portion of the consideration for
     the  Combinations,  to repay debt assumed in the  Combinations,  to pay the
     underwriting discount and other expenses of the initial public offering and
     to provide additional working capital,  and (iv) 757,040 shares used to pay
     for a portion of the purchase  price related to the  acquisition  of Abbott
     Resorts.  Related to the six month period ended June 30, 1998,  diluted net
     income per share  includes  the effect of  options  to  purchase  1,697,000
     shares granted concurrently with the initial public offering at an exercise
     price  equal  to  the  initial   public   offering   price.   See  "Certain
     Transactions."

(6)  The  unaudited  pro forma  combined  balance  sheet data assume the Company
     acquired  Abbott Resorts on June 30, 1998. The unaudited pro forma combined
     balance  sheet  data  is  based  upon  preliminary   estimates,   available
     information and certain  assumptions that management deems  appropriate and
     should be read in  conjunction  with the notes to the  Unaudited  Pro Forma
     Combined Financial Statements.

(7)  Adjusted  for the increase in goodwill  primarily  related to the pro forma
     issuance  of $26.5  million in  long-term  debt and $6.6  million in Common
     Stock in conjunction with the acquisition of Abbott Resorts.

                                  RISK FACTORS

   
     An  investment  in the shares of Common  Stock  offered by this  prospectus
involves a high degree of risk.  You should  carefully  consider  the  following
factors and other  information in this  prospectus  before deciding to invest in
shares of Common Stock.
    

ABSENCE OF COMBINED OPERATING HISTORY; RISKS OF INTEGRATION

   
     RQI was founded in September 1997 but conducted no operations and generated
no  revenues  prior  to its  initial  public  offering  in  May  1998,  when  it
simultaneously  acquired  the  Founding  Companies.  Since  that  time,  we have
acquired three  additional  vacation rental and property  management  companies.
Prior to such acquisitions, each of the Operating Companies operated as separate
independent  entities.  Currently,  the  Company  has no  centralized  financial
reporting system and relies on the existing  reporting  systems of the Operating
Companies. The pro forma combined financial statements of the Founding Companies
and Abbott  Resorts  cover  periods when these  companies and RQI were not under
common  control or management.  Consequently,  they may not be indicative of our
future financial or operating results.

     The Company's senior  management group was assembled in connection with the
initial public offering.  We cannot assure you that the management group will be
able to integrate  and manage  effectively  the combined  entity or  effectively
implement  our operating  and growth  strategies.  If we are unable to integrate
successfully the Operating  Companies and future  acquisitions,  it would have a
material  adverse  effect on our business and financial  results.  It also would
make  it  unlikely  that  our  acquisition  program  will  be  successful.   See
"Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis of Financial  Condition  and Results of
Operations" and "Business -- Business Strategy" and "-- Growth Strategy."

     The Operating  Companies offer a variety of different  services to property
owners and vacationers,  use different sales and marketing techniques to attract
new customers,  utilize  different fee structures and target different  customer
segments.  In  addition,  almost  all  of the  Operating  Companies  operate  in
different  geographic  markets with varying levels of  competition,  development
plans and local market dynamics. These differences increase the risk inherent in
successfully completing the integration of the Operating Companies.
    

RISKS  ASSOCIATED  WITH  THE  VACATION  RENTAL AND PROPERTY MANAGEMENT INDUSTRY;
GENERAL ECONOMIC CONDITIONS

   
     Our business  and  financial  results are  dependent  upon various  factors
affecting the vacation rental and property management industry.  Factors such as
the following could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial
results:

     o    a reduction in the demand for vacation  properties,  particularly  for
          beach and island resort properties and mountain resort properties;

     o    adverse changes in travel and vacation patterns;

     o    adverse changes in the tax treatment of second homes;

     o    an oversupply of vacation properties;

     o    a downturn in the leisure and tourism industry;

     o    increases in gasoline or airfare prices; and

     o    adverse weather conditions or natural  disasters,  such as hurricanes,
          tidal waves or tornadoes.
    

SEASONALITY AND QUARTERLY FLUCTUATIONS

   
     Our  business  is highly  seasonal.  The  financial  results of each of the
Operating Companies have been subject to quarterly fluctuations caused primarily
by the  seasonal  variations  in the  vacation  rental and  property  management
industry. Peak seasons for the Operating Companies depend upon     


                                       11

<PAGE>



   
whether the resort is primarily a summer or winter destination.  During 1997, we
derived  approximately  31% of our pro forma  revenues and 53% of our  operating
income in the first  quarter  and 30% of our pro forma  revenues  and 28% of our
operating income in the third quarter. Although the seasonality of our financial
results may be partially mitigated by the geographic  diversity of the Operating
Companies and any future  acquisitions,  we expect a significant seasonal factor
with respect to our financial results to continue.

     Our quarterly  financial  results may also be subject to  fluctuations as a
result of the timing and cost of acquisitions,  the timing of real estate sales,
changes in relationships  with travel providers,  extreme weather  conditions or
other  factors  affecting  leisure  travel and the vacation  rental and property
management  industry.  Unexpected  variations in our quarterly financial results
could  adversely  affect  the  price of the  Common  Stock  which in turn  could
adversely affect our proposed acquisition strategy. See "Management's Discussion
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."


RISKS OF DEPENDENCE ON THIRD PARTIES

     We manage  properties  that are generally  located in  destination  resorts
which  depend  upon  third  parties  for  the   development  of  new  homes  and
condominiums,  as well as resort amenities such as golf courses and chair lifts.
If such  third  parties  fail to  continue  to  develop  or to  invest in resort
facilities and amenities,  it could have a material adverse effect on the rental
value  of the  Company's  properties  and,  consequently,  on our  business  and
financial results.

     We also depend on travel agents, package tour providers and wholesalers for
a significant portion of our revenues. During 1997, we derived approximately 34%
of our combined  revenues from sales made through or to travel  agents,  package
tour providers and  wholesalers.  If travel  agents,  package tour providers and
wholesalers  fail to continue to  recommend  or package  ResortQuest's  vacation
properties,  it  could  have a  material  adverse  effect  on our  business  and
financial results.
    

FACTORS AFFECTING INTERNAL GROWTH

   
     ResortQuest  has  experienced  revenue and  earnings  growth on a pro forma
combined basis over the past few years, including  approximately 14.3% and 95.4%
increases in pro forma combined revenues and earnings,  respectively,  from 1996
to 1997. The total market for vacation condominium,  home and apartment rentals,
which are marketed  predominantly  by vacation  rental and  property  management
companies,  experienced an 8.7% increase in total revenues from 1995 to 1996. We
cannot assure you that we or the total market for vacation property rentals will
continue to  experience  growth.  Factors  affecting  our ability to continue to
experience   internal   growth  include,   the  ability  to  maintain   existing
relationships  with  property  owners,  expand  the number of  properties  under
management and cross-sell  among the Operating  Companies,  as well as continued
demand for such rentals.  See "-- Risks  Associated with the Vacation Rental and
Property  Management  Industry;  General  Economic  Conditions" and "Business --
Business Strategy" and "-- Growth Strategy."     


RISKS OF GEOGRAPHIC CONCENTRATION OF OPERATIONS

   
     ResortQuest manages properties that are significantly concentrated in beach
and island  resorts  located in Florida and the  Hawaiian  Islands and  mountain
resorts  located  in  Colorado  and Utah.  The  following  table  sets forth the
combined  revenue and percentage of total  revenues  derived from each location.

                 Hawaii                            $20,976        26%
                 Colorado and Utah                 $15,371        19%

Adverse  events or conditions  which affect these areas in  particular,  such as
economic  recession,  changes  in  regional  travel  patterns,  extreme  weather
conditions or natural disasters, would have a more significant adverse effect on
our operations, than if our operations were more geographically diverse.
    

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH ACQUISITIONS

   
     ResortQuest intends to expand the markets it serves and increase the number
of  properties  it manages,  in part,  through  the  acquisition  of  additional
vacation rental and property management companies.  We cannot assure you that we
will be able to identify,  acquire or profitably manage additional businesses or
successfully  integrate acquired businesses into our existing operations without
substantial  costs,  delays or other  operational or financial  problems.  It is
possible that  competition  may increase for companies we might seek to acquire.
In such event, there may be fewer acquisition  opportunities available to us, as
well as higher acquisition prices.

     Acquisitions  also  involve a number of special  risks  which  could have a
material  adverse  effect on our business  and  financial  results.  These risks
include the following:

     o    the  failure  of  acquired  companies  to achieve  expected  financial
          results;

     o    diversion of management's attention;

     o    failure to retain key personnel;

     o    amortization of acquired intangible assets; and

     o    increased  potential  for  customer   dissatisfaction  or  performance
          problems  at  a  single  acquired  company  to  affect  adversely  our
          reputation and brand name.

We may also seek  international  acquisitions  that may be subject to additional
risks associated with doing business in such countries.  See "Business -- Growth
Strategy."

     ResortQuest  intends to use shares of Common  Stock to finance a portion of
the consideration for future acquisitions. If the Common Stock does not maintain
a sufficient  market  value,  or the owners of businesses we may seek to acquire
are  otherwise  unwilling  to  accept  shares  of  Common  Stock  as part of the
consideration  for the sale of their  businesses,  we may be required to utilize
more of our cash resources,  if available, in order to implement our acquisition
strategy.  If we have insufficient  cash resources,  our growth could be limited
unless we are able to obtain additional funds through debt or equity financings.
We cannot assure you that our cash resources  will be sufficient,  or that other
financing  will be  available on terms we find  acceptable.  If we are unable to
obtain  financing  sufficient  for all of our  desired  acquisitions,  we may be
unable to implement fully our acquisition strategy. See "Management's Discussion
and Analysis of Financial  Condition  and Results of Operations -- Liquidity and
Capital Resources."
    

MANAGEMENT OF GROWTH

   
     We plan to continue to grow  internally and through  acquisitions.  We will
expend  significant time and effort in expanding the Operating  Companies and in
identifying,  completing and integrating acquisitions. We cannot assure you that
our systems,  procedures and controls will be adequate to support our operations
as  they  expand.   Any  future  growth  also  will  impose   significant  added
responsibilities  on  members  of  senior  management,  including  the  need  to
identify,  recruit and integrate new managers and  executives.  We cannot assure
you that we will be able to identify and retain such additional  management.  If
we are unable to manage our growth efficiently and effectively, or we are unable
to attract and retain additional qualified management,  it could have a material
adverse effect on our business and financial results.  See "Business -- Business
Strategy" and "Management."

RELIANCE ON KEY PERSONNEL

   
     Our  business  substantially  depends on the efforts and  relationships  of
David C. Sullivan,  Chairman and Chief  Executive  Officer,  the other executive
officers of the Company and the senior  management of the  Operating  Companies.
Furthermore,  we will  likely  be  dependent  on the  senior  management  of any
businesses  acquired in the future.  If any of these persons  becomes  unable to
continue  in his or her role,  or if we are unable to attract  and retain  other
qualified employees, it could have a material adverse effect on our business and
financial results.  Although ResortQuest has entered into employment  agreements
with each of ResortQuest's  executive  officers and the chief executive officers
of the Operating  Companies,  we cannot assure you that any of these individuals
will continue in his or her present capacity for any particular  period of time.
See "Management."


SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNTS OF GOODWILL

     Approximately  $127.0  million,  or 70.3%, of the Company's pro forma total
assets  as of June 30,  1998,  is  goodwill,  which  represents  the  excess  of
consideration  we paid over the  estimated  fair  market  value of net assets we
acquired in  business  combinations  accounted  for under the  purchase  method.
ResortQuest generally amortizes goodwill on a straight line method over a period
of 40 years with the amount  amortized in a  particular  period  constituting  a
non-cash expense that reduces our net income. Amortization of goodwill resulting
from certain past  acquisitions,  and  additional  goodwill  recorded in certain
future acquisitions may not be deductible for tax purposes. In addition, we will
be required periodically to evaluate the recoverability of goodwill by reviewing
the  anticipated  undiscounted  future cash flows from  operations and comparing
such cash flows to the carrying  value of the associated  goodwill.  If goodwill
becomes  impaired,  we would be required to write down the carrying value of the
goodwill  and incur a related  charge to our income.  A reduction  in net income
resulting  from a write down of goodwill  would  currently  affect our financial
results and could have a material  and adverse  impact upon the market  price of
the Common Stock.
    

SHORT-TERM RENTAL AND PROPERTY MANAGEMENT CONTRACTS

   
     We provide  rental and  property  management  services to  property  owners
pursuant to  management  contracts  which  generally  have one year  terms.  The
majority of such contracts contain  automatic renewal  provisions but also allow
property owners to terminate the contract at any time. If property owners do not
renew a significant  number of management  contracts or we are unable to attract
additional  property  owners,  it would  have a material  adverse  effect on our
business and financial results. In addition,  although most of our contracts are
exclusives, industry standards in certain geographic markets dictate that rental
services  be  provided  on a  non-exclusive  basis.  Approximately  1.4%  of our
revenues  for 1997 on a pro  forma  combined  basis  were  derived  from  rental
services  provided on a  non-exclusive  basis.  We are unable to  determine  the
percentage  of the  national  rental  services  market  that  is  provided  on a
non-exclusive  basis.  See "Business -- Services Offered to Condominium and Home
Owners."
    

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH HOMEOWNERS' ASSOCIATION MANAGEMENT CONTRACTS

   
     We  currently  provide  homeowners'   association  management  services  at
numerous  condominium  developments  pursuant to contracts with the  homeowners'
association   present  at  such  developments.   We  frequently  provide  rental
management  services for a  significant  percentage of the  condominiums  within
these developments.  Providing management services for homeowners'  associations
frequently  leads the  associations  to request  that we manage and  control the
front desk  operations,  laundry  facilities  and other related  services of the
condominium   developments.   Controlling   these  services  often  gives  us  a
competitive  advantage  over  other  vacation  rental  and  property  management
companies in retaining the  condominiums  we currently  manage and in attracting
new property owners.

     We cannot assure you that a homeowners'  association will not terminate its
management  agreement  with  us.  If  a  homeowners'  association  terminates  a
management agreement,  we could lose the control or management of the front desk
and related services, thereby eliminating our competitive
    


                                       14

advantage.  If we lose our competitive advantage,  it could cause a reduction in
the number of properties  we manage and an increase in the expenses  required to
retain  and  maintain  the  condominiums  we  manage  at  that  site.  Any  such
termination  could have a material  adverse effect on our business and financial
results.
    

COMPETITION

   
     The vacation rental and property  management industry is highly competitive
and has low barriers to entry.  The industry has two distinct  customer  groups:
vacation   property  renters  and  vacation  property  owners.  We  compete  for
vacationers  and  property  owners  primarily  with  local  vacation  rental and
property management companies located in our markets.  Some of these competitors
are affiliated  with the owners or operators of resorts in which such competitor
provides  its  services.  Certain  of  these  competitors  may have  lower  cost
structures and may be able to provide their services at lower rates.

     We also compete for vacationers with large hotel and resort companies. Many
of these competitors are large companies with greater  financial  resources than
ResortQuest, enabling them to finance acquisition and development opportunities,
pay higher  prices for the same  opportunities  or develop and support their own
operations.  In addition, many of these companies can offer vacationers services
not provided by vacation rental and property management companies,  and they may
have greater name  recognition  among  vacationers.  If such companies  chose to
compete in the vacation  rental and  property  management  industry,  they would
constitute formidable competition for our business. Such competition could cause
us to lose management  contracts,  increase  expenses or reduce  management fees
which  could  have a  material  adverse  effect on our  business  and  financial
results. See "Business -- Competition."

MAJORITY CONTROL BY EXISTING MANAGEMENT AND STOCKHOLDERS

     The executive  officers and directors of  ResortQuest,  the founders of RQI
and the former  stockholders of the Operating  Companies and entities affiliated
with them,  as of September  30, 1998,  own shares of Common Stock  representing
approximately  50% of the total voting power of the Common Stock  (approximately
54% if all shares of Restricted  Common Stock (as defined herein) were converted
into Common Stock). These persons, if acting together,  will be able to exercise
control over the Company's affairs, to elect all of the directors and to control
the  disposition  of  any  matter  submitted  to a  vote  of  stockholders.  See
"Principal  Stockholders"  and "Description of Capital Stock -- Common Stock and
Restricted Common Stock."
    

PORTION OF REVENUES DERIVED FROM REAL ESTATE SALES

   
     We derived  approximately  11% of our revenues for 1997 on a combined basis
from net real estate brokerage  commissions.  Any factors which adversely affect
real estate sales, such as a downturn in general economic  conditions or changes
in interest rates, the tax treatment of second homes or property  values,  could
have a material adverse effect on our business and financial results.
    

GOVERNMENT REGULATION OF VACATION RENTAL AND PROPERTY MANAGEMENT INDUSTRY

   
     ResortQuest's  operations are subject to various  federal,  state and local
laws and regulations, including licensing requirements applicable to real estate
operations,  laws and  regulations  relating  to consumer  protection  and local
ordinances.  Many  states  have  adopted  specific  laws and  regulations  which
regulate our activities, such as:

     o    real estate and travel services provider license requirements;

     o    anti-fraud laws;

     o    telemarketing laws;

     o    environmental laws;
    


                                       15

<PAGE>



   
     o    the Fair Housing Act;

     o    the Americans With Disabilities Act; and

     o    labor laws.

     We believe  that we are in material  compliance  with all  federal,  state,
local  and  foreign  laws and  regulations  to which we are  currently  subject.
However,  we cannot  assure  you that the cost of  qualifying  under  applicable
regulations in all jurisdictions in which we desire to conduct business will not
be  significant  or that we are  actually  in  compliance  with  all  applicable
federal,  state,  local and foreign  laws and  regulations.  Compliance  with or
violation of any current or future laws or regulations  could require us to make
material  expenditures  or  otherwise  have a  material  adverse  effect  on our
business and financial results. See "Business -- Governmental Regulation."     

RELATIONSHIPS   WITH   FOUNDING   COMPANY  AFFILIATES;  POTENTIAL  CONFLICTS  OF
   INTERESTS

   
     Several lease  agreements,  management  contracts and other agreements with
stockholders of the Founding Companies and entities controlled by them continued
after the closing of the acquisitions of the Founding Companies. We also entered
into certain similar agreements that became effective upon such acquisitions. In
addition,  we may enter into  similar  agreements  in the  future.  Although  we
believe that the existing  agreements we have entered into with related persons,
other than a loan  agreement  with the  former  principal  stockholder  of Aston
Hotels & Resorts,  are and that all future  agreements  will be on terms no less
favorable to ResortQuest than it could obtain unrelated third parties, conflicts
of interests may arise between the Company and these related persons.

     At September 30, 1998 the former  principal  stockholder  of Aston Hotels &
Resorts  is  indebted  to us in the  aggregate  amount  of  $4.0  million.  This
receivable is fully  collateralized by cash or cash equivalents and real estate.
For  a  description  of  this  agreement  see  "Certain  Transactions  --  Other
Transactions."
    

POTENTIAL EFFECT OF SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE ON PRICE OF COMMON STOCK

   
     The market  price of the Common Stock could drop as a result of the sale of
substantial amounts of Common Stock in the public market, or the perception that
such sales could occur.

     ResortQuest  has  16,873,265  shares  of  Common  Stock  outstanding  as of
September  30, 1998.  The  6,670,000  shares of Common Stock sold in the initial
public  offering are freely  tradable  unless held by affiliates of the Company.
Simultaneous  with the  closing of the  Combinations,  the  stockholders  of the
Founding Companies received, in the aggregate,  6,119,656 shares. Management and
founders  of RQI own  3,134,630  shares.  These  9,254,286  shares have not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities  Act"),
and,  therefore,  may not be sold unless  registered under the Securities Act or
sold pursuant to an exemption from registration,  such as the exemption provided
by Rule  144.  Furthermore,  the  holders  of  these  shares  have  agreed  with
ResortQuest  not to sell,  transfer or otherwise  dispose of any of these shares
for one year following the closing of the initial public offering (until May 26,
1999).   However,   the  holders  of  these  shares  also  have  certain  demand
registration  rights  beginning two years after the initial public  offering and
certain piggyback registration rights with respect to these shares.

     ResortQuest  has issued 948,979  shares of Common Stock in connection  with
the three acquisitions which have closed since the IPO. Of these shares, 919,965
shares  were  covered by this  registration  statement  and  748,363  shares are
subject to certain contractual transfer restrictions until October 2000.

     The Company has agreed not to offer,  sell,  contract to sell or  otherwise
dispose of any shares of Common Stock,  or any  securities  convertible  into or
exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, for a period of 180 days after the
date of the initial public  offering  without the prior written consent of Smith
Barney Inc. on behalf of the Underwriters. The holders of all shares outstanding
prior to the initial public offering,  and certain  non-employee  directors have
agreed not to offer, sell, contract to
    

                                       16

<PAGE>



   
sell or  otherwise  dispose of any  shares of Common  Stock,  or any  securities
convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock for a period of
one year from the  closing of the  initial  public  offering  without  the prior
written consent of Smith Barney Inc. on behalf of the Underwriters.

     This  prospectus  registers  3,000,000  shares  of Common  Stock  under the
Securities Act for use by the Company as consideration for future  acquisitions.
These shares will generally be freely tradable after issuance, unless the resale
thereof is contractually restricted or unless the holders thereof are subject to
the  restrictions  on resale  provided in Rule 145 under the Securities Act. See
"Shares Eligible for Future Sale" and "Underwriting."
    

POSSIBLE VOLATILITY OF STOCK PRICE

   
     There was no public market for the Common Stock prior to the initial public
offering. Although a public market for the common stock has developed, we cannot
assure  you that the  public  market  for the  Common  Stock  will be  active or
continue. The following factors, among others, may cause the market price of the
Common Stock to significantly increase or decrease:

     o    variations  in  our  annual  or  quarterly  financial  results  or the
          financial results of our competitors;

     o    changes by  financial  research  analysts  in their  estimates  of our
          earnings;

     o    our failure to meet  financial  research  analysts'  estimates  of our
          earnings;

     o    conditions in the general economy, or the vacation and property rental
          management or leisure and travel industries in particular;

     o    unfavorable publicity about ResortQuest or our industry; and

     o    significant price and volume volatility in the stock market in general
          for reasons unrelated to ResortQuest.


ANTI-TAKEOVER EFFECT OF CERTAIN CHARTER AND BY-LAW PROVISIONS

     Certain  provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation  could make it more
difficult  for a third  party to acquire  control of  ResortQuest,  even if such
change in control would be beneficial to stockholders. The directors are allowed
to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval. Such issuances could make
it more  difficult  for a third  party to  acquire  ResortQuest.  The  Company's
By-Laws contain other  provisions  that may have an  anti-takeover  effect.  See
"Management  -- Directors and Executive  Officers" and  "Description  of Capital
Stock."


                           FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

     There  are  a  number  of  statements  in  this   prospectus  that  address
activities,  events or  developments  which we expect or anticipate  will or may
occur in the future,  including such matters as our strategy for internal growth
and improved  profitability,  additional  capital  expenditures  (including  the
amount and nature  thereof),  acquisitions  of assets and  businesses,  industry
trends and other such matters. These statements are "forward-looking statements"
within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such
statements are based on certain  assumptions  and analyses we have made in light
of our perception of historical trends, current business and economic conditions
and  expected  future  development  as well as  other  factors  we  believe  are
reasonable or appropriate. However, whether actual results and developments will
conform with our  expectations  and  predictions is subject to a number of risks
and  uncertainties,  including  the risk factors  discussed in this  prospectus;
general economic, market or business conditions;  the business opportunities (or
lack thereof) that may be presented to and pursued by  ResortQuest;  and changes
in laws or regulations and other factors,  most of which are beyond our control.
Consequently,  we cannot assure you that the actual results or  developments  we
anticipate will be realized or, even if substantially  realized,  that they will
have the expected consequences to or effects on ResortQuest.

                                   THE COMPANY

   
     ResortQuest is a leading provider of vacation  condominium and home rentals
at premier  destination  resorts  throughout  the  United  States.  Through  the
consolidation of leading vacation rental and property management companies,  the
development  of a national  brand and marketing  initiative  and best  practices
management  systems,  we intend to offer  vacationers a branded  network of high
quality,  fully furnished,  privately-owned  condominium and home rentals, while
offering property owners superior  management services designed to enhance their
rental  income.  On May 26, 1998,  the Company  consummated  its initial  public
offering and the acquisitions of the Founding Companies. Since that time we have
acquired three  additional  vacation rental and property  management  companies,
including Abbott Resorts. We currently manage approximately 13,000 condominiums,
homes and hotel rooms in nine states and Canada. The Company's primary source of
revenue is  property  rental  fees,  which are  charged as a  percentage  of the
vacationers'  total rental price. Fee percentages for vacation  condominiums and
homes range from  approximately  3% to over 40% of rental  rates for the various
Operating  Companies  depending on the type of services provided to the property
owner and the type of rental  unit  managed.  On a pro forma  basis for the year
ended December 31, 1997, the Company  generated total revenues of  approximately
$83.2 million,  which  includes  $43.6 million of revenues from property  rental
fees,  and net income of $7.0  million,  which  includes an  adjustment  for the
Compensation Differential of approximately $3.6 million. See "Selected Financial
Data -- Pro Forma  Combined  Statement of  Operations  Data." The following is a
brief  description  of each of the Operating  Companies.  Information  presented
regarding the number of rental units is at June 30, 1998.

- ----------
(1)  The unaudited pro forma combined  statement of operations  data assume that
     the  Combinations and the acquisition of Abbott Resorts occurred on January
     1, 1997 and are not necessarily indicative of the results the Company would
     have  realized  had such  acquisitions  actually  then  occurred  or of the
     Company's future results.  During the periods presented above, the Founding
     Companies  and Abbott  Resorts were not under common  control or management
     and,  therefore,  the data presented may not be comparable to or indicative
     of  post-combination  results to be achieved by the Company.  The pro forma
     combined statements of operations data are based on preliminary  estimates,
     available   information  and  certain  assumptions  that  management  deems
     appropriate  and  should be read in  conjunction  with the other  financial
     statements and notes thereto  included  elsewhere in this  Prospectus.  The
     Company expects to realize certain savings as a result of the consolidation
     of  insurance,  employee  benefits  and other  general  and  administrative
     expenses.  The Company  cannot  quantify  these savings  accurately at this
     time. Consequently, the Company is unable to determine at this time whether
     these  savings  will be material or not.  Any such savings may be offset by
     the costs of being a publicly  traded  company  and the  incremental  costs
     related to the Company's new management team.  However,  these costs,  like
     the savings that they offset, cannot be quantified accurately at this time.
     Neither these  anticipated  savings nor these  anticipated  costs have been
     included in the pro forma combined financial information of the Company.

(2)  The unaudited pro forma combined  statement of operations  data include pro
     forma (i) additional  revenue that ResortQuest  would have realized related
     to certain  property  management  contracts with affiliates of the Founding
     Companies and Abbott Resorts (at contractual rates that were not reflective
     of market conditions), (ii) the Compensation Differential, (iii) effects of
     the  exclusion of certain  non-operating  assets and the  assumption  of or
     retirement of certain liabilities (including interest expense) that will be
     retained  by  certain  stockholders  of the  Founding  Companies,  and (iv)
     estimated  interest expense related to the debt assumed in conjunction with
     ResortQuest  funding the cash portion of the purchase  price related to the
     acquisition  of  Abbott  Resorts.  See  notes to the  Unaudited  Pro  Forma
     Combined Financial Statements.

(3)  Reflects  amortization  of goodwill (which is not deductible for income tax
     purposes)  recorded as a result of the  Combinations and the acquisition of
     Abbott Resorts over a 40-year  period,  except for the goodwill  related to
     First Resort,  which will be amortized over a 15-year period,  and computed
     on the basis  described in the notes to the  Unaudited  Pro Forma  Combined
     Financial Statements.

(4)  Includes  the  provision  for federal and state  income  taxes  relating to
     converting certain operations to C Corporation status and including the tax
     impact of pro forma adjustments.

(5)  Includes (i) 6,119,656  shares issued to owners of the Founding  Companies;
     (ii)  3,134,630  shares issued to the management and founders of RQI; (iii)
     6,670,000  shares  representing  the number of shares  sold in the  initial
     public offering  necessary to pay the cash portion of the consideration for
     the  Combinations,  to repay debt assumed in the  Combinations,  to pay the
     underwriting discount and other expenses of the initial public offering and
     to provide additional working capital,  and (iv) 757,040 shares used to pay
     for a portion of the purchase  price related to the  acquisition  of Abbott
     Resorts.  Related to the six month period ended June 30, 1998,  diluted net
     income per share  includes  the effect of  options  to  purchase  1,697,000
     shares granted concurrently with the initial public offering at an exercise
     price  equal  to  the  initial   public   offering   price.   See  "Certain
     Transactions."

(6)  The  unaudited  pro forma  combined  balance  sheet data assume the Company
     acquired  Abbott Resorts on June 30, 1998. The unaudited pro forma combined
     balance  sheet  data  is  based  upon  preliminary   estimates,   available
     information and certain  assumptions that management deems  appropriate and
     should be read in  conjunction  with the notes to the  Unaudited  Pro Forma
     Combined Financial Statements.

(7)  Adjusted  for the increase in goodwill  primarily  related to the pro forma
     issuance  of $26.5  million in  long-term  debt and $6.6  million in Common
     Stock in conjunction with the acquisition of Abbott Resorts.

                       CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

   
     The following  discussion should be read with "Selected Financial Data" and
the Financial Statements and related Notes thereto of the Founding Companies and
Abbott Resorts appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus.
    

INTRODUCTION

   
     ResortQuest is a leading provider of vacation  condominium and home rentals
in premier  destination  resorts  throughout  the  United  States.  Through  the
consolidation of leading vacation rental and property management companies,  the
development  of a national  brand and marketing  initiative  and best  practices
management  systems,  the Company intends to offer vacationers a branded network
of high quality, fully furnished,  privately-owned  condominium and home rentals
while offering property owners superior  management services designed to enhance
their rental income. On May 26, 1998, the Company consummated its initial public
offering and the  acquisitions  of the Founding  Companies.  Since that time, we
have  acquired  three  additional   vacation  rental  and  property   management
companies, including Abbott Resorts. ResortQuest currently manages approximately
13,000  condominiums,  homes and hotel  rooms  nationwide  and in Canada.  These
rental  properties  are located in beach and island resorts such as the Hawaiian
Islands; Bethany Beach, DE; Gulf Shores, AL; Nantucket, MA; the Outer Banks, NC;
Destin, Fort Walton Beach and South Walton, FL; Sanibel and Captiva Islands, FL;
and St. Simons Island, GA; and mountain resorts such as Aspen,  Breckenridge and
Telluride,  CO; Park City,  UT; and  Whistler,  British  Columbia.  Eight of the
Operating Companies also offer real estate brokerage services. First Resort, one
of the  Founding  Companies,  is a leading  provider  of  integrated  management
services and  reservations  and accounting  software for the vacation rental and
property management industry.

     The Company's  revenues are derived  primarily from property rental fees on
vacation condominium and home rentals, and service fees from additional services
provided to  vacationers  and property  owners.  The Company  receives  property
rental fees when the properties are rented,  which are generally a percentage of
the rental price of the vacation  condominium or home ranging from approximately
3% to over 40% based upon the type of  services  provided  by the Company to the
property  owner and the type of rental unit managed.  Revenues are recognized by
the Company on the property  rental fees received from property  owners,  not on
the total rental price of the vacation  condominium  or home,  and generally are
recognized  ratably  over the rental  period.  On a pro forma basis for the year
ended December 31, 1997, the Company recognized $43.6 million of property rental
fees,  representing  52.4% of the  Company's  total  1997  revenues.  Additional
services  provided to  vacationers,  such as  reservations,  housekeeping,  trip
cancellation insurance and long-distance  telephone,  are charged separately and
recorded  as service  fees  revenue by the  Company.  During  1997,  the Company
recognized  $23.2 million of service fees,  representing  27.9% of the Company's
total 1997 pro forma revenues. The Company's remaining $16.4 million of 1997 pro
forma  revenues  are  derived  from  other  sources,   including  management  of
homeowners'  associations,  the sale and service of vacation rental and property
management  software,  net broker commissions on real estate sales, and a food &
beverage facility.  The Company does not view the sources of other revenues as a
significant  area of future  growth,  but only as a means to retain and increase
the number of rental units under Company management.

     Operating   expenses   include  direct   compensation,   telecommunications
expenses,  housekeeping supplies, printing, marketing and food & beverage costs.
Compensation  includes salary,  wages, bonus and benefits for employees involved
with the rental or maintenance of the rental units, housekeeping,  reservations,
marketing  and the food & beverage  facility.  Telecommunications  costs  result
primarily from the cost of toll-free numbers maintained by each of the Operating
Companies,  as well as the cost of telephone  service provided by the Company to
property owners in certain markets.  General and administrative expenses consist
primarily  of  salary,  wages,  bonus and  benefits  for owners as well as other
non-operations personnel, fees for professional services, depreciation, rent and
other general office expenses.

     The Operating  Companies have operated  throughout the periods presented as
independent,  privately-owned  entities, and their results of operations reflect
varying tax structures (S Corporations or C Corporations)  which have influenced
the historical  level of owners'  compensation.  The owners and key employees of
the Operating  Companies have agreed to certain,  and in some cases substantial,
reductions  in  their  salary,   bonus  and  benefits  in  connection  with  the
acquisitions.

     The  Company  expects  to  realize  certain  savings  as a  result  of  the
consolidation   of   insurance,   employee   benefits  and  other   general  and
administrative expenses of the Operating Companies.  The Company cannot quantify
these savings  accurately at this time.  Consequently,  the Company is unable to
determine at this time whether  these  savings will be material or not. Any such
savings  may be offset by the costs of being a publicly  traded  company and the
incremental costs related to the Company's new management team.  However,  these
costs,  like the savings that they offset,  cannot be  quantified  accurately at
this time.  Neither these  anticipated  savings nor these anticipated costs have
been included in the pro forma combined financial information of the Company.

     In  July  1996,  the  Securities  and  Exchange   Commission  issued  Staff
Accounting  Bulletin  No.  97  ("SAB  97")  relating  to  business  combinations
immediately  prior to an initial  public  offering.  SAB 97 requires  that these
combinations   be  accounted  for  using  the  purchase  method  of  acquisition
accounting.  Under the purchase method,  one of the companies must be designated
as the accounting  acquiror.  Aston Hotels & Resorts has been  identified as the
accounting  acquiror  for  financial  statement   presentation  purposes  (i.e.,
carryover basis). For the remaining companies,  $70.1 million,  representing the
excess of the fair  value of the  merger  consideration  received  over the fair
value of the net assets  acquired,  was recorded as  "goodwill" on the Company's
balance  sheet.  In  addition,  goodwill  of  $25.5  million  was  recorded  and
attributed  to  the  Restricted   Common  Stock  issued  to  management  of  and
consultants  to RQI.  Additionally,  the  Company  expects to record  additional
goodwill of $31.5 million in conjunction with the acquisition of Abbott Resorts.
Goodwill will be amortized as a non-cash  charge to the income  statement over a
40-year period other than that  associated with the acquisition of First Resort,
which will be  amortized  over a 15-year  period.  The pro forma  impact of this
amortization expense,  which is non-deductible for tax purposes, is $3.2 million
per year.  In addition,  the $29.5  million paid to the owners of Aston Hotels &
Resorts has been reflected as  "Distributions  in Excess of Predecessor Basis in
Net Assets" in the pro forma financial statements.  See "Certain Transactions --
Organization of the Company."
    

SEASONALITY AND QUARTERLY FLUCTUATIONS

   
     The business of the Operating Companies is highly seasonal.  The results of
operations  of  each  of  the  Operating  Companies  are  subject  to  quarterly
fluctuations  caused primarily by the seasonal variations in the vacation rental
and property  management  industry,  with peak seasons  dependent on whether the
resort is primarily a summer or winter  destination.  During  1997,  the Company
derived  approximately  31% of its pro forma  revenues and 53% of its  operating
income in the first  quarter  and 30% of its pro forma  revenues  and 28% of its
operating income in the third quarter. Although the seasonality of the Company's
revenues and earnings may be partially mitigated by the geographic  diversity of
the Operating Companies, and any future acquisitions there is likely to continue
to be a significant  seasonal factor with respect to the Company's  revenues and
earnings.  The Company's  quarterly results of operations may also be subject to
fluctuations as a result of the timing and cost of  acquisitions,  the timing of
real estate  sales,  changes in  relationships  with travel  providers,  extreme
weather  conditions or other factors  affecting  leisure travel and the vacation
rental and property  management  industry.  Unexpected  variations  in quarterly
results could also adversely  affect the price of the Common Stock which in turn
could adversely affect the Company's proposed acquisition strategy.
    

INFLATION

   
     Inflation  did  not  have a significant effect on the results of operations
of  the  Operating Companies for 1995, 1996 or 1997 or the six months ended June
30, 1998.

RESORTQUEST
    

     Results of Continuing Operations

   
     Effective with the closing of  ResortQuest's  Offering on May 26, 1998, the
Company  acquired 12 vacation rental and property  management  companies and one
leading vacation rental and property management software company.  However,  for
financial accounting  reporting purposes,  Aston Hotels & Resorts was identified
as the accounting acquiror and the remaining Founding Companies  (including RQI)
were accounted for under the purchase method of accounting.

     For discussion of the operating  results  herein,  periods prior to the IPO
include  only the  results  of Aston  Hotels &  Resorts  and  periods  after the
Offering  include the results of the  Combinations  and Aston  Hotels & Resorts.
Comparability  of actual results for the six month periods may be misleading and
are not necessarily indicative of the results of the combined operations.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997

     Revenues.  Revenues  increased $3.9 million or 38.3%, from $10.1 million in
1997 to $13.9 million in 1998,  primarily due to the Combinations.  The 1997 and
1998 results of operations include Aston for the entire periods, and the results
of operations for the remaining  Founding Companies are reflected for the period
from May 27, 1998 through June 30, 1998.

     Operating  Expenses.  Operating expenses  increased $1.9 million,  or 36.6%
from  $5.2  million  in 1997  to  $7.2  million  in  1998  primarily  due to the
Combinations.  The 1997 and 1998 results of  operations  include  Aston Hotels &
Resorts for the entire periods,  and the results of operations for the remaining
Founding  Companies  are reflected for the period from May 27, 1998 through June
30, 1998.

     General and Administrative  Expenses.  General and administrative  expenses
increased $1.7 million or 70.6%,  from $2.4 million for 1997 to $4.2 million for
1998. As a percentage of revenues, general and administrative expenses increased
from 24.2% in 1997 to 29.9% in 1998, primarily due to the Combinations. The 1997
and 1998  results of  operations  include  Aston Hotels & Resorts for the entire
periods,  and the results of operations for the remaining Founding Companies are
reflected for the period from May 27, 1998 through June 30, 1998.

     Other Income  (Expense).  Other income  (expense)  decreased  approximately
$303,000 primarily due to the Combinations.  Aston Hotels & Resorts'  operations
were  primarily  financed  through  working  capital  and  long-term   financing
resulting  in  higher  levels of  interest  expense  prior to the  Combinations.
Concurrent with the Combinations, ResortQuest did not assume any of Aston Hotels
& Resorts' previous debt.  However,  ResortQuest did assume  approximately  $5.7
million  of debt from the other  Founding  Companies,  which was paid off by the
Company subsequent to the IPO. The assumption of debt by Aston Hotels & Resorts'
primary  stockholder and the proceeds from the IPO on May 26, 1998,  resulted in
lower levels of interest expense and higher levels of interest income during the
period ended June 30, 1998.

     Income from Continuing  Operations.  Net income increased $519,000 or 25.2%
from $2.1  million  for 1997 to $2.6  million for 1998,  primarily  due to items
discussed above.

     Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The  Company  is a holding  company  that  conducts  all of its  operations
through its subsidiaries  (the Operating  Companies).  Accordingly,  the primary
internal  source of the  Company's  liquidity  is through  the cash flows of its
subsidiaries.

     ResortQuest  generated cash flows from operating activities of $4.1 million
in 1998  primarily due to income from  continuing  operations and an increase in
reservation  and escrow  deposits  partially  offset by a decrease  in  accounts
payable  and  accrued   liabilities.   Cash  used  in  investing  activities  by
ResortQuest was  approximately  $21.1 million in 1998, due primarily to the cash
portions of the Combinations. At June 30, 1998, ResortQuest's 1998 cash provided
by financing activities totaled $21.4 million, which included $60.9     

                                       28

million due primarily from the proceeds of the public stock  issuance  partially
offset by  distributions  to Aston Hotels & Resorts'  stockholders.  At June 30,
1998, ResortQuest had a working capital deficit of $1.5 million and $2.0 million
of long-term debt outstanding.

     At June 30, 1998, the Company had approximately $12.1 million in cash, cash
equivalents and cash held in trust,  of which $6.1 million  represents cash held
in trust, and approximately $3.4 million of outstanding  indebtedness.  The cash
held in trust is released at varying times in accordance with state regulations,
generally  based upon the guest stay.  Certain  assets,  including  real estate,
personal property, receivables and cash, that were not used in the operations of
certain  Founding  Companies were excluded from the Combinations and retained by
the respective  stockholders of such Founding Companies.  Certain  non-operating
assets and the assumption of certain debt, of approximately  $5.1 million,  were
retained by certain  stockholders of the Founding  Companies.  These  exclusions
have been reflected in the balance sheet of the Company at June 30, 1998.

     At June 30,  1998,  the  former  principal  stockholder  of Aston  Hotels &
Resorts was  indebted to the Company in the  aggregate  amount of $4.0  million.
This debt is fully  collateralized  with real estate,  cash or cash  equivalents
pledged to the Company.

     On May 26, 1998,  ResortQuest  issued an  aggregate of 9,254,286  shares of
Common Stock in  connection  with the  Combinations  (1,708,333  shares to Aston
stockholders  and 7,545,953 shares to the remaining  stockholders  involved with
the  Combinations)  and 6,670,000  shares of Common Stock in connection with the
Offering.  Shares  issued in the Offering  were sold at a price to the public of
$11.00 per share.  The net  proceeds to  ResortQuest  from the  Offering  (after
deducting  underwriting  discounts,  commissions  and  offering  expenses)  were
approximately   $60.0  million.   Pursuant  to  the  Combinations,   ResortQuest
consummated  the  acquisitions  of the  Founding  Companies  for an aggregate of
approximately  $54.9 million in cash,  6,119,656  shares of Common Stock and the
assumption of $5.7 million in debt.  As of June 30, 1998,  the net proceeds have
been  used as  follows:  (i)  $54.9  million  to pay  the  cash  portion  of the
consideration  for the  Combinations,  and (ii) $5.2  million to pay off assumed
indebtedness.  As of June 30, 1998,  ResortQuest had 15,924,286 shares of Common
Stock issued and outstanding.

     The Company entered into a credit agreement (the "Credit  Agreement") as of
May  26,  1998  with  NationsBank,   N.A.  and  First  Tennessee  Bank  National
Association,  with respect to a $30 million revolving line of credit. The Credit
Facility  may be  used  for  letters  of  credit  not to  exceed  $2.5  million,
acquisitions,  capital  expenditures,  and for general corporate  purposes.  The
Credit  Agreement  requires the Company to comply with  various loan  covenants,
which  include   maintenance  of  certain  financial  ratios,   restrictions  on
additional indebtedness and restrictions on liens, guarantees, advances, capital
expenditures,  sale of assets and dividends. At October 9, 1998, the Company was
in compliance with applicable loan covenants.  Interest on outstanding  balances
of the Credit  Facility is computed at the Company's  election,  on the basis of
either the Prime Rate or the Eurodollar Rate plus a margin ranging form 1.25% to
2.00%,  depending on certain  financial  ratios.  Availability fees ranging from
 .25% to .50% per annum depending on certain  financial ratios are payable on the
unused portion of the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility has a three-year term
and is  secured  by  substantially  all  the  assets  of  the  Company  and  its
subsidiaries,  including  the stock in the  Founding  Companies  and any  future
material  subsidiaries,  as defined. The Company,  each Founding Company and all
other  current  and future  material  subsidiaries  are  required  to  guarantee
repayment of all amounts due under the Credit Facility.

     As of September 30, 1998,  outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility
totalled  $29.0 million  principally  as a result of the  acquisition  of Abbott
Resorts.  On September  30, 1998,  the Company  executed a promissory  note (the
"Note  Agreement")  maturing on January 31, 1999 in favor of NationsBank,  N.A.,
with  respect to an  additional  $5.0  million  revolving  line of  credit.  The
interest rate on outstanding balances,  the interest payment dates and the terms
of default under the Note  Agreement  are the same as those  provided for in the
Credit  Facility.  The Note Agreement is secured on the same terms as the Credit
Facility.  ResortQuest also has entered into discussions with NationsBank,  N.A.

     Management  does not believe it is in the best  interests of the Company to
use shares of Common Stock at current market values to fund the consideration of
future  acquisitions.  Unless  the  Company is able to obtain  additional  funds
through  debt  financings  the Company  could be unable to fully  implement  its
acquisition strategy.

     The Company  anticipates  that its cash flow from  operations  will provide
cash in excess of the  Company's  normal  working  capital  needs,  debt service
requirements and planned capital  expenditures for the foreseeable future. Total
capital  expenditures  for 1998 are  anticipated  to be between $1.5 million and
$2.0 million, of which approximately  $200,000 will be for software development,
with the balance going to furniture, fixtures and equipment.

     The Company intends to pursue attractive acquisition  opportunities.  There
can be no  assurance  that the  Company  will be able to  identify,  acquire  or
profitably  manage  additional  businesses or  successfully  integrate  acquired
businesses  into  the  Company  without   substantial  costs,  delays  or  other
operational  or  financial  problems.   Increased  competition  for  acquisition
candidates  may  develop,   in  which  event  there  may  be  fewer  acquisition
opportunities  available to the Company,  as well as higher acquisition  prices.
Further,  acquisitions involve a number of special risks,  including the failure
of acquired companies to achieve anticipated results,  diversion of management's
attention,  failure to retain key personnel, risks associated with unanticipated
events or liabilities and amortization of acquired  intangible  assets,  some or
all of which could have a material  adverse  effect on the  Company's  business,
financial condition and results of operations.

     Year 2000 Compliance

     The vacation property  management industry uses a complex suit of software.
The areas of greatest risk of software failure due to Year 2000 problem are:

     o    Property   Management   Systems   (guest   services  and   back-office
          accounting)

     o    Reservations/Inventory Management

     o    Hardware BIOS (the software that runs "beneath" the operating system)

     o    Analysis and/or management reporting tools

     o    Imbedded control systems (HVAC, elevator controls, etc.)

     The Company is in the process of evaluating  the various  components of its
operating  environment  (personal  computer  workstations and related equipment,
Network  servers,  telephone  and data  communication  equipment,  point of sale
devices,  software  applications  (both  third  party and  internally  developed
software)  ), and  embedded  technology  such as  microcontrollers.  The Company
expects to complete the  analysis,  and implement any  corrective  measures,  in
early 1999.  The Year 2000 project is not  expected to delay or supercede  other
planned IT projects.

     Based upon the  information  gathered to date,  the Company  estimates  the
upper range of the cost of the analysis and subsequent replacement or upgrade of
system components which are not Year 2000 compliant is approximately $600,000. A
significant  portion of the total potential expense estimate relates to the cost
of replacement of personal computer hardware,  servers,  and  telecommunications
equipment.  Funding of Year 2000 costs is  expected  to be provided by cash flow
from operations.

     The impact upon the Company by Year 2000 issues is greatest in the areas of
property     management    systems,     telecommunications,     and    financial
accounting/reporting.  The Company  believes that the  consequences of Year 2000
issues  with the  respect  to  adverse  impact  upon the  Company's  results  of
operations will not be material.

     The Company expects to have contingency plans in place designed to mitigate
the impact of Year 2000 issues. The contingency plan will include items such as:
offsite and/or manual  reservations/inventory  management,  property  management
(guest services,  back-office functions,  work order administration),  financial
accounting and reporting,  and management  reporting.  All contingency plans are
expected to be developed, tested and implemented by the end of 1999.

debt in 1997.

corporation, and Coastal Resorts Realty L.L.C., which is taxed as a partnership,

ENDED JUNE 30, 1997

     Revenues.  Although  the current  year period is  comprised of activity for
approximately five months compared to activity for six months of 1997,  revenues
increased  approximately  $54,000,  or 2.8%,  from $1.9  million in 1997 to $2.0
million  in  1998  due to an  increase  in  real  estate  brokerage  commissions
resulting from the increased number of vacation  properties sold and an increase
in property rental fees resulting from higher average rental rates.

     Operating  Expenses.  Although  the  current  year period is  comprised  of
activity for  approximately  five months  compared to activity for six months of
1997, operating expenses increased approximately $70,000, or 8.4%, from $831,000
in 1997 to $901,000 in 1998,  primarily due to relatively constant salary levels
and increasing revenues.

     General and  Administrative  Expenses.  Although the current year period is
comprised of activity for approximately five months compared to activity for six
months of 1997,  general and  administrative  expenses  increased  approximately
$72,000,  or  7.2%  primarily  due to  increased  salaries  and  benefits.  As a
percentage of revenues, general and administrative expenses increased from 52.2%
in 1997 to 54.4% in 1998.

     Other  Income  (Expense). Other income decreased approximately $39,000 from
$40,000 to $1,000, primarily due to a gain on the sale of assets in 1997.

     Net income.  Net income decreased  approximately  $104,000 from $102,000 in
1997 to a net loss of $2,000 in 1998 primarily because Trupp-Hodnett Enterprises
has increased revenue in the month of June as it is a summer resort destination.
The 1998 net income amount does not reflect activity for the month of June.

PERIOD  FROM  JANUARY  1,  1998  THROUGH MAY 26, 1998 COMPARED TO THE SIX MONTHS
   ENDED JUNE 30, 1997

     Revenues.  Although  the current  year period is  comprised of activity for

increased  approximately  $11,000,  or 0.4%,  from $2.7  million in 1997 to $2.8
million in 1998 primarily due to an increase in other revenues.

     Operating Expenses. As the current year period is comprised of activity for
approximately five months compared to activity for six months of 1997, operating
expenses decreased  approximately $36,000, or 2.2%, from $1.6 million in 1997 to
$1.6 million in 1998.

     General  and  Administrative  Expenses.  As  the  current  year  period  is
comprised of activity for approximately five months compared to activity for six
months of 1997,  general and  administrative  expenses  decreased  approximately
$43,000,  or 8.6% from  $501,000 in 1997 to $458,000 in 1998. As a percentage of

$651,000  in 1997  to  $751,000  in  1998  primarily  because  Telluride  Resort
Accomodations  is a ski resort that  incurs  losses in the month of June and the
1998 period only considers activity through May 26.

      Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Telluride Resort Accommodations' cash used in operating activities was $1.3
million in 1998,  primarily due to a decrease in customer  deposits and deferred
revenues and a decrease in payable to property owners which was partially offset
by net income of $751,000. Cash used in investing activities was $67,000 and was
primarily  used for the purchase of property  and  equipment.  Telluride  Resort
Accommodations'  cash  used  in  financing  activities  totaled  $346,000  which
included  payments on the line of credit and  distributions to stockholders.  At
May 26, 1998, Telluride Resort Accommodations had working capital of $24,000 and
no long-term debt outstanding.

payable and accrued  liabilities of $299,000 and net income of $277,000 in 1997.
Cash used in investing activities was $25,000 in 1997 and was primarily used for
purchase of property and equipment.  Telluride Resort  Accommodation's 1997 cash
used  in  financing   activities   totaled  $207,000  due  to  distributions  to
stockholders  of $300,000  offset by $93,000 in proceeds from  Telluride  Resort
Accommodation's  line of credit.  At December 31, 1997,  Telluride had a working

                                    BUSINESS


GENERAL

   
     ResortQuest is a leading provider of vacation  condominium and home rentals
in premier  destination  resorts  throughout  the  United  States.  Through  the
consolidation of leading vacation rental and property management companies,  the
development  of a national  brand and marketing  initiative  and best  practices
management  systems,  the Company intends to offer vacationers a branded network
of high quality, fully furnished,  privately-owned  condominium and home rentals
while offering property owners superior  management services designed to enhance
their rental income.  Currently,  most vacationers seeking to rent a condominium
or home at a popular  destination  resort must use a local  vacation  rental and
property  management firm to inquire about  availability and make  reservations.
Vacationers  typically  make rental choices with limited  information  and, as a
result,  face great  uncertainty  concerning  the  quality of their  rental.  To
address this need, the Company  intends to provide  vacationers  with consistent
quality and service,  increased  information and easy access to a broad array of
high  quality  desirable  condominium  and home  rentals in premier  destination
resorts.

     The Company  commenced  operations on May 26, 1998,  concurrently  with its
initial public offering and the  acquisitions of the Founding  Companies.  Since
that  time,  ResortQuest  has  acquired  three  additional  vacation  rental and
property  management  companies.  The Company  currently  manages  approximately
11,300  condominiums and homes nationwide and in Canada.  These condominiums and
homes are  located in beach and island  resorts  such as the  Hawaiian  Islands;
Bethany Beach, DE; Destin, FL; Gulf Shores, AL; Nantucket,  MA; the Outer Banks,
NC; Sanibel and Captiva  Islands,  FL; and St. Simons  Island,  GA; and mountain
resorts  such as Aspen,  Breckenridge  and  Telluride,  CO;  Park City,  UT, and
Whistler,  British  Columbia.  The Company  also  manages 11 hotels  aggregating
approximately 1,700 hotel rooms located primarily in the Hawaiian Islands.

     ResortQuest  provides  a wide range of  services  to both  vacationers  and
property  owners.  Because of the  variety  of the  Company's  resort  locations
throughout  the United  States and Canada  and the  diversity  of rental  prices
throughout  its rental  pool,  the  Company  is able to target a broad  range of
vacationers,  including families, couples and individuals.  For vacationers, the
Company  offers the  convenience  and  accommodations  of a condominium or home,
while  providing  many  of the  amenities  and  services  of a  hotel.  Vacation
condominium and home rentals  generally offer greater space and convenience than
resort hotel rooms, including separate living,  sleeping and eating quarters. As
a result,  vacationers  generally have more privacy and greater flexibility in a
vacation  condominium  or home.  The Company  typically  offers such services as
convenient  check-in  and  check-out,  frequent  housekeeping  and  cleaning and
emergency  maintenance  assistance.  In addition,  in most of its  markets,  the
Company provides specialized  concierge-type services such as arranging golf tee
times,  purchasing  ski lift  tickets and making  restaurant  reservations.  For
property owners,  the Company offers a comprehensive set of services,  including
marketing and rental services, maintenance and security.

     The Company's  primary source of revenue is property rental fees, which are
charged to the property owners as a percentage of the vacationers'  total rental
rate.  Fee   percentages  for  vacation   condominiums   and  homes  range  from
approximately  3% to over 40% of rental rates  depending on the type of services
provided to the  property  owner and the type of rental unit  managed.  On a pro
forma basis for the year ended December 31, 1997, the Company,  generated  total
revenues  of  approximately  $83.2  million,  which  includes  $43.6  million of
revenues from property rental fees and net income of $7.0 million.  In addition,
in many markets, the Company provides traditional real estate brokerage services
for property owners seeking to sell their  condominiums  and homes.  The Company
believes  that a national  brand and  superior  management  services,  which are
designed to enhance  rental income for property  owners,  will provide it with a
competitive  advantage in attracting  additional high quality  condominiums  and
homes in its markets.
    

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

     Destination  resort  vacationers  primarily  have  three  alternatives  for
overnight accommodations:  commercial lodging establishments, time share resorts
and privately owned vacation condominiums and homes. Commercial lodging consists
principally of hotels and motels in which a room is rented


                                       48

<PAGE>



on a nightly or weekly  basis.  Vacation  ownership or timeshare  interests  are
purchased by the vacationer  and typically  entitle the buyer to use a furnished
vacation  residence at a particular  resort generally for a one-week period each
year, in perpetuity. Lastly, privately-owned vacation condominiums and homes are
typically second homes available for rent by property owners seeking incremental
income. The total market for vacation  condominium,  home and apartment rentals,
which are marketed  predominantly  by vacation  rental and  property  management
companies,  was over $10 billion in 1996,  representing over 20 million vacation
property  rentals.  Rental revenues grew 8.7% from 1995 to 1996, and the Company
believes  that this  growth has been,  and will  continue  to be,  driven by two
primary factors:  the overall growth in the leisure travel and tourism industry,
which  reflected  a 16.1%  increase  in  revenues  from  1995  to  1997  and the
increasing  number of  vacationers  seeking to rent  vacation  condominiums  and
homes.

     For many vacationers, particularly those with families, a lengthy stay at a
quality commercial lodging establishment can be expensive.  Vacation condominium
and home rentals  generally offer families  greater space and convenience than a
resort hotel room, including separate living, sleeping and eating quarters. As a
result,  families  generally  have more  privacy  and greater  flexibility  in a
vacation condominium or home. Furthermore,  with full kitchens available in most
properties,  vacationers can also save on dining costs in a vacation condominium
or home rental. In addition,  vacation  condominium and home rentals  frequently
include  access to  private  yards,  swimming  pools,  tennis  courts  and other
recreational  facilities,  and generally  offer a greater  variety of locations,
accommodations and price ranges within a market to meet a vacationer's desires.

     Vacation  property  rentals  are also a less  expensive  and more  flexible
alternative to timeshare interests.  Unlike vacation property rentals, timeshare
interests require the purchase of an ownership  interest in a vacation residence
and continuing annual maintenance  payments.  A timeshare owner has the right to
use the same vacation  residence for the same length of time each year.  Subject
to availability and the payment of a membership fee and a variable  exchange fee
to join a timeshare  exchange  program,  a timeshare  owner may request that his
timeshare   interval  be   exchanged   for  a  timeshare   interval  at  another
participating  resort.  Owners are generally  limited to timeshare  intervals at
participating  resorts and to those  units which have been  assigned an equal or
lower rating by the exchange program based on the location,  size and quality of
the unit, the quality of the resort and the time of year requested.

     Most vacation  condominiums and homes are second homes owned by individuals
who reside in  different  locations  and are unable to easily  manage the rental
process. Vacation rental and property management companies facilitate the rental
process by  handling  all  interaction  with  vacationers,  including  accepting
reservations,  rental  payments and security  deposits;  operating  check-in and
check-out  locations;  and arranging for inspections,  security and maintenance.
The publishing of catalogs,  print advertising and other marketing activities of
a successful  vacation rental and property  management  company also can enhance
the vacation  condominium or home's occupancy rate and increase rental income to
the property owner.

   
     The vacation rental and property  management industry is highly fragmented,
with an estimated 3,000 vacation rental and property management companies in the
United  States.  Presently,  most  vacation  rental  condominiums  and homes are
managed by and booked  through  local  vacation  rental and property  management
firms,  whose principal means of attracting  property owners and vacationers are
by referral, word of mouth, limited local advertising and direct mailings. There
is no central  reservations  service for  vacationers or travel agents to obtain
information  regarding  condominium  or home  rental  opportunities  at  popular
destination  resorts  across the  country or for  booking  such  rentals  once a
destination is selected.  As a result,  the Company believes the vacation rental
and  property   management   industry  is  highly  inefficient  and  presents  a
significant  market  opportunity  for  a  well-capitalized  company  offering  a
national network of high quality  vacation  condominiums and homes with superior
levels of customer service.
    

BUSINESS STRATEGY

     The Company's objective is to enhance its position as a leading provider of
premier  destination  resort  condominium  and  home  rentals  by  pursuing  the
following business strategies:


                                       49

<PAGE>



   
     DEVELOP A NATIONAL BRAND IN PREMIER DESTINATION RESORT CONDOMINIUM AND HOME
RENTALS.  The  Company  intends to create the first  national  brand in vacation
condominium  and home  rentals.  To date,  there has been no national  brand for
vacation  condominium and home rentals,  no industry standards for quality and a
general lack of access to reliable  information  regarding rental  opportunities
for vacationers.  By providing an extensive network of high quality condominiums
and homes in premier  destination  resorts  throughout  the United  States,  the
Company intends to increase the information available to vacationers and develop
a brand which  provides  greater  confidence  and ease to  vacationers in making
their rental arrangements.  In order to ensure high quality, the Company intends
to  implement a  comprehensive  quality  assurance  program  which  includes the
company-wide  rating of individual  condominiums and homes to assure vacationers
that rental  accommodations  will meet their  expectations,  as well as customer
satisfaction surveys and follow-up calls.
    

     OFFER  VACATIONERS  SUPERIOR  CUSTOMER  SERVICE.  Management  believes that
maintaining  superior  levels of customer  service is critical to  developing  a
reputation for high quality condominiums and homes and attracting new customers.
Vacationers typically rent vacation condominiums and homes for greater space and
flexibility,  but these customers also  frequently  desire many of the amenities
and  services  of hotel  accommodations.  As a result,  the  Company  emphasizes
customer service by offering conveniently located check-in locations,  efficient
check-in and check-out  procedures,  extended  front desk hours, a commitment to
clean units and access to  emergency  contact  and  maintenance  personnel.  The
Company also strives to offer  maximum  flexibility  to meet the varied needs of
its  vacationers  and in most markets can arrange for services  such as golf tee
times,  rental  bicycles,  ski lift  tickets,  grocery  delivery  or  restaurant
reservations. By offering the convenience and accommodations of a condominium or
home while providing many of the amenities and services of a hotel,  the Company
believes it will  continue to strengthen  the loyalty of its existing  customers
and  attract  new  vacationers  into the  vacation  condominium  and home rental
market.

     ENHANCE VALUE FOR CONDOMINIUM AND HOME OWNERS.  Through effective  national
marketing,  a recognized  brand and  implementation  of  strategies  designed to
increase  occupancy  and rental  rates,  the Company plans to enhance the rental
income for vacation  condominium and home owners. Since substantially all of the
condominiums  and homes  managed by the Company are second  homes with  absentee
owners,  the Company offers a range of high quality vacation rental and property
management  services  designed  to meet the  broad  real  estate  needs of these
owners. In most markets,  the Company will assume broad  responsibility  for the
condominium or home, from marketing and handling all aspects involved in renting
the  individual  condominium  or home to  managing  the  common  properties  and
homeowners' association.  In addition, the Company provides owners with concise,
timely  and  accurate  monthly  statements  and  payments  for  the  rental  and
management  of their  condominiums  and homes.  The  Company  believes  that its
reputation  for high quality,  comprehensive  management  services will be a key
competitive  advantage in increasing the number of condominiums  and homes under
its management within its existing markets.

   
     CAPITALIZE ON THE EXPERIENCE OF SENIOR  MANAGEMENT.  The Company intends to
capitalize on the industry experience of members of its senior management. David
C.  Sullivan,  the  Chairman  and Chief  Executive  Officer is the former  Chief
Operating  Officer  of  Promus  Hotel   Corporation,   where  he  was  primarily
responsible  for the creation and expansion of the Hampton Inn,  Homewood Suites
and  Embassy  Suites  lines.  David L.  Levine,  President  and Chief  Operating
Officer,  is the former  President and Chief  Operating  Officer of Equity Inns,
Inc., a real estate investment trust specializing in hotel acquisitions.

     MAINTAIN LOCAL  RELATIONSHIPS  AND EXPERTISE.  The management  teams of the
Operating  Companies each have extensive  experience in their respective  resort
areas, and many of the individuals are very active in the local  community.  The
Company  believes that the  management  teams have a valuable  understanding  of
their  respective  markets  and  businesses  and  have  developed  strong  local
relationships.   These  relationships  are  critical  in  attracting  additional
condominiums  and homes for rental and enable the Company to provide  additional
concierge-type services to its vacationers.  Accordingly, the Company intends to
operate with a  decentralized  management  strategy and allow local  managers to
utilize their knowledge and expertise about the condominiums and homes available
    


                                       50

<PAGE>



for rent, the offerings of local  competitors  and the desires of vacationers in
their areas to provide superior customer service.

GROWTH STRATEGY

     The  Company  intends to enhance  its  position  as a leading  provider  of
vacation condominium and home rentals in premier destination resorts by pursuing
the following growth strategies:

   
     IMPLEMENT A NATIONAL MARKETING STRATEGY. The Company intends to implement a
national  marketing  program  designed to increase  vacationer  awareness of its
rental condominiums and homes and establish a nationally recognized high quality
name and image,  while  promoting the unique  characteristics  of its individual
resorts.  In  addition,  the  Company  will  market  to  existing  customers  to
capitalize on cross-selling opportunities and increase customer loyalty. Through
its  collection  of  approximately  13,000  beach  and  mountain  resort  rental
properties and hotel rooms and the databases of customer information  maintained
by the  Operating  Companies,  the Company  intends to offer  customers  similar
properties  and  services  in  its  other  resorts.  The  Company  believes  the
integrated  marketing efforts of the Operating  Companies will increase customer
awareness of the Company's  condominiums and homes,  lead to an increased demand
for the  Company's  rentals and result in higher  occupancy and rental rates for
its condominium and home owners.  The Company also believes that the anticipated
increase in rental income for owners will ultimately be a competitive  advantage
in attracting new property owners.

     CAPITALIZE ON TECHNOLOGY. Management believes that investment in technology
will be critical in building  its national  brand and will create a  significant
competitive  advantage.   The  Company  intends  to  utilize  the  technological
expertise  of  First  Resort,  a  Founding  Company,  to  enhance  the  ease and
convenience for vacationers of accessing information and making reservations for
vacation rentals.  The Company's  strategy is to create a comprehensive web site
that  presents all of the  Company's  condominium,  home and hotel room rentals,
including  photographs and detailed floor plans, and allows  vacationers to make
reservations and payments.  Several of the Operating  Companies  already provide
photographs and rate and  availability  information for  condominiums  and homes
over the world wide web, and the Company intends to leverage these  capabilities
to implement a central reservation system with world wide web functionality.  In
addition to facilitating the ability to provide one-stop  shopping,  the Company
intends  to  link  the  Operating  Companies'  and  future  acquired  companies'
databases in order to enhance its  cross-selling  and direct marketing  efforts.
    

     INCREASED USE OF ADDITIONAL MARKETING CHANNELS. Currently, most vacationers
locate vacation condominiums and homes through referrals, word-of-mouth, limited
local   advertising  and  direct  mailings.   The  Company  believes  there  are
significant  opportunities to expand the use of additional  marketing  channels.
The Company intends to capitalize on its extensive market presence by increasing
the use of other  marketing  channels such as the world wide web,  travel agents
and national  print media,  which are  difficult for local  vacation  rental and
property  management  companies  to use in a  cost-effective  manner.  Given the
Company's size and presence in premier destination resorts, the Company believes
it will be an attractive  partner to travel agents,  tour package  operators and
other travel providers.  These  relationships  should be a significant source of
new  customers  and, in  particular,  will be a valuable  marketing  channel for
off-peak seasons.  Lastly,  the Company plans to focus greater marketing efforts
on European and other  international  travelers  through a more extensive use of
international print media, wholesalers and packaged tour companies.

   
     EXPAND MARKET SHARE OF CONDOMINIUM AND HOME RENTALS IN EXISTING MARKETS.  A
key element of the  Company's  growth  strategy is to increase its  selection of
condominiums  and homes in order to expand its market share and  strengthen  the
local brands of each of the Operating Companies.  The Company intends to attract
new property owners by achieving high occupancy rates through effective national
marketing,  cross-selling  and by  offering  additional  incentives  to property
owners,  such as participation  in a rental exchange  program.  In addition,  in
order to capture a higher portion of the rental  business from new  condominiums
and homes being built in its  markets,  the Company  will focus on building  and
strengthening its relationships with both local and national  developers as well
as real estate brokerage companies.

     PURSUE  OPPORTUNITIES  FOR PROFIT  MARGIN  EXPANSION  VIA COST  SAVINGS AND
ADDITIONAL REVENUE SOURCES.  Through the  implementation of best practices,  the
Company believes there are numerous  opportunities to improve the margins of the
Operating Companies. First, the Company will strive to improve the efficiency of
certain  basic  services such as  reservations,  housekeeping  and laundry.  The
Company also believes that larger  inventories of condominiums  and homes in its
markets  will  provide  certain  economies  of  scale in  advertising,  check-in
locations, management,  housekeeping and other services. In addition, several of
the Operating Companies have developed unique additional revenue  opportunities,
such as assisting  property owners in refurbishing  their  properties,  offering
trip  cancellation  insurance  and  charging  fees  for  certain  concierge-type
services,  several of which are  adaptable  at other  Operating  Companies.  The
Company  believes  that enhanced  efficiency  and economies of scale will reduce
overall  operating costs and allow the Company to achieve  increased  margins by
spreading operating and corporate overhead costs over a larger revenue base.
    

     BUILD NATIONAL MARKET PRESENCE THROUGH STRATEGIC ACQUISITIONS. The vacation
rental and property  management  industry is highly fragmented,  with over 3,000
geographically  dispersed  companies in the United States.  The Company believes
that such fragmentation  provides  significant  opportunities for consolidation.
The Company  intends to  aggressively  pursue both  domestic  and  international
acquisitions  in order to gain a  presence  in  additional  premier  destination
resort  locations  as well as expand its market share in existing  resorts.  The
Company will seek  companies  with strong  reputations  and a commitment to high
quality condominiums and homes and customer service. While the Company will seek
to acquire the leading  companies in each new market,  the Company also plans to
pursue  tuck-in  acquisitions  through  which it can  expand  its  selection  of
condominiums  and  homes  available  for  rent  in its  existing  markets.  Many
acquisition  candidates  utilize  First  Resort's  software,  which the  Company
believes will enhance its ability to integrate such companies upon acquisition.

     The Company expects to offer acquisition candidates: (i) affiliation with a
national  brand;  (ii) the ability to cross-sell to customers of other  vacation
rental  and  property  management  companies;  (iii)  the  ability  to  increase
liquidity as a result of the Company's  financial  strength as a public company;
and (iv) the  ability to  increase  profitability  as a result of the  Company's
centralization of certain administrative functions and other economies of scale.

MARKETS

   
     The Company currently manages  condominiums and homes in many popular beach
and mountain resorts in the United States and Canada. Through the implementation
of its  acquisition  strategy,  the Company plans to establish an  international
network  of  vacation  condominiums  and homes in every  major  type of  premier
destination resort market, including beach, mountain, golf and tennis resorts.

SERVICES OFFERED

   
     SERVICES  OFFERED  TO  VACATIONERS.   The  Company  provides   services  to
vacationers  during all stages of the rental  transaction from the selection and
reservation of a condominium or home to the vacationers'  arrival and throughout
their  stay.  To make the  selection  and  reservation  process  as  simple  and
convenient as possible, the Company currently provides vacationers with catalogs
containing  color  photographs  and  descriptions  of available  condominiums or
homes, and  reservations are taken over the phone by reservation  agents at each
of its resort  communities who are familiar with the specific  condominiums  and
homes available.  Many of the Operating  Companies use a rating system to ensure
that  vacationers'  expectations are met by the condominium or home selected and
several  of the  Operating  Companies  also  have  world  wide web  sites  where
vacationers can obtain price and availability information.
    

     For the  vacationers'  arrival,  the Company  offers  conveniently  located
check-in and check-out locations, many of which are located on-site at the front
desk of the Company's  condominium  properties.  Off-site check-in locations are
typically  conveniently located and easily accessible in their respective resort
communities. In most destination resort communities,  the Company maintains more
than one conveniently located check-in facility.  During their stay, vacationers
at most locations are offered frequent  cleaning and  housekeeping  services and
access to emergency contact and maintenance  personnel.  In most locations,  the
Company  offers more  specialized  "concierge"  services such as bicycle and ski
equipment rentals, ski lift tickets sales, shuttles to ski areas, golf tee times
and  restaurant  reservations.  The  Company  typically  receives  a fee for the
provision of such services.

     SERVICES  OFFERED TO  CONDOMINIUM  AND HOME  OWNERS.  The Company  provides
condominium  and home owners a wide range of  high-quality  vacation  rental and
property  management services designed to meet their broad real estate needs. In
most  markets,   the  Company  will  assume  complete   responsibility  for  the
condominium or home, including  marketing,  renting and maintaining the specific
property as well as providing  security and managing the common  properties  and
homeowners'


                                       53

<PAGE>



association.  The Company currently engages in extensive  marketing  activities,
including  direct  catalog  mailings to prior and  prospective  vacationers  and
direct  solicitations of travel agents,  wholesalers and package tour operators.
The Company also handles all interaction with vacationers,  including  accepting
rental  payments  and  security  deposits,   operating  check-in  and  check-out
locations and offering linen,  housekeeping and other services.  Property owners
are paid rental income each month for rental activity in the preceding month and
are given a concise,  timely and accurate  monthly  statement  which details the
rental activity and management of their condominiums and homes.

     Property  maintenance  services are provided by both Company  employees and
third party independent contractors. Services are either regularly scheduled, or
provided on an "as needed" basis,  depending on the service and the location. In
most markets,  after each annual or  semi-annual  inspection,  the Company makes
recommendations   to  property  owners  for  maintenance,   refurbishments   and
renovations  necessary to maintain the quality of their  condominiums and homes.
In several of its destination resort markets, the Company provides  professional
interior design and refurbishment services to property owners to assist with the
upkeep and  appearance of their  condominiums  and homes.  The Company  includes
routine maintenance services,  such as replacing light bulbs or broken china, as
part of an all inclusive  commission  structure in certain  locations.  In other
markets, the Company collects fees from property owners for maintenance services
through service and maintenance agreements and fee for service arrangements.

   
     For owners desiring to sell their vacation condominium or home, many of the
Operating   Companies  provide   traditional  real  estate  brokerage  services,
including  listing and  showing the  property.  In 1997,  net real estate  sales
commissions  represented  approximately 11% of combined  revenues.  The relative
amount of such revenue  varies by Operating  Company but is more  significant in
those markets where the Company  primarily offers  free-standing  homes,  rather
than  condominiums,  such as Aspen and Nantucket.  The Company believes that the
provision  of real estate  brokerage  services  provides  it with a  competitive
advantage in  identifying  and  securing  properties  for its rental  management
services and allowing it to meet all of the needs of vacation property owners.
    

MARKETING

   
     The  marketing   efforts  of  traditional   vacation  rental  and  property
management companies,  including the Operating Companies,  are primarily through
word of mouth referrals from satisfied  customers (both vacationers and property
owners),  print advertising primarily in local newspapers and regional magazines
and direct mail  solicitations  and catalogs sent to prior customers.  Potential
customers call as a result of a referral or in response to an  advertisement  or
other  promotion  and are  assisted  by  reservation  agents  in  selecting  the
appropriate  vacation property and making the reservation.  In addition to these
efforts, several of the Operating Companies also market their rental inventories
to travel  agents,  tour  package  operators  and other travel  providers.  Tour
package operators typically combine  transportation to a destination resort with
the Company's  vacation  condominiums and homes and a car rental.  Tour packages
are distributed almost exclusively through travel agents. The Company markets to
travel agents and package tour operators  primarily  through  advertisements  in
trade  publications,  such as the Hotel and  Travel  Index,  and  attendance  at
national  and regional  travel  industry  trade  shows.  Several of the Founding
Companies  also have  sites on the world wide web that are  actively  updated to
increase the probability of meeting  vacationers' search criteria for lodging in
their  destination  resort  communities.  Vacation  rentals for those  companies
attributable  to  initial  contacts  through  their  web  sites  have  increased
significantly  over the past three years.  The Company  estimates  that combined
revenues for 1997 were derived 63% from traditional  direct marketing,  21% from
package tour operators and wholesalers, 13% from travel agents and 3% from world
wide web inquiries.

     The Company believes that a national marketing campaign should increase the
effectiveness  of the  Founding  Companies  and  companies to be acquired in the
future, and expand the universe of potential  customers for each resort location
in which the Company operates.  The Company plans to leverage the reputations of
the Operating Companies to establish a nationally recognized high quality brand.
The extensive databases regarding previous and potential vacationers  maintained
by the
    


                                       54

<PAGE>



   
Operating   Companies  will  be  used  to   aggressively   cross-sell   vacation
opportunities in other destination resorts through direct solicitations. Similar
condominiums  and homes and services in other leading markets will be offered to
customers of each Operating Company.     

     The Company also intends to capitalize on its extensive market presence and
increase its use of the world wide web,  travel agents and the print media.  The
Company plans to leverage the technology and expertise of First Resort to create
a central  reservations  system  easily  accessible  on the world wide web which
vacationers  ultimately can use to view  photographs and detailed floor plans of
the condominiums and homes, and make reservations and payments. The Company also
believes that its extensive  selection of vacation  condominiums  and homes will
make it an attractive partner to travel agents, tour package operators and other
travel  providers.  These  relationships  should be a significant  source of new
customers and, in particular,  will be a valuable marketing channel for off-peak
seasons.  Lastly,  the  Company  plans to focus  greater  marketing  efforts  on
European  and other  international  travelers  through a more  extensive  use of
international print media, wholesalers and packaged tour companies.


TECHNOLOGY

   
     First  Resort,  one of the  Founding  Companies,  is a leading  provider of
integrated  management,  reservations  and accounting  software for the vacation
rental and property management industry. Ten of the Operating Companies and over
700 other vacation rental and property  management  companies use First Resort's
software  programs.  First Resort's software programs were developed to overcome
problems  encountered  by rental  property  managers  in  attempting  to utilize
software  programs  developed  for the  hotel  industry.  First  Resort's  basic
software allows vacation  rental and property  management  companies to automate
and computerize their reservations,  billings,  rental management and accounting
tasks. Vacation rental and property management companies can use the software to
generate current rates on individual condominiums and homes and call up specific
descriptions  of those  condominiums  and homes  for  potential  customers.  The
software also allows  companies to generate monthly revenue reports for property
owners and to coordinate  maintenance and housekeeping  schedules.  First Resort
also offers additional modules and interfaces, including a work order generator,
activities  management system,  credit card interface and world wide web enabled
reservations.  While the  Company  plans to use  First  Resort's  resources  and
expertise  to enhance  the  technological  capabilities  of the other  Operating
Companies,  First  Resort  will  continue  to market its  software  products  to
independent  vacation  rental and  property  management  companies  and  provide
service and technical support.

     The Company  intends to rely  extensively  on the products  and  management
expertise of First  Resort to  implement  its  technology  strategy.  Management
believes that  investment in technology will be critical in building a national,
branded vacation rental and property  management company for premier destination
resorts and will be a  significant  competitive  advantage  in the  future.  The
Company  plans  to  utilize  First  Resort   software  to  implement  a  central
reservations  system with world wide web  functionality to allow  vacationers to
make their rental arrangements at any of the Company's properties.  First Resort
also is developing a JAVA Client/Server based graphical reservations application
that will allow users of its software to completely integrate their reservations
systems with the world wide web, as well as a JAVA  Client/Server  based version
of all of its existing software applications.  First Resort's software also will
allow the Company to quickly link the Operating  Companies' and future  acquired
companies'  databases.  The Company intends to develop  proprietary  data mining
tools in order to enhance its cross-selling and direct marketing efforts.
    

COMPETITION

     The vacation rental and property  management industry is highly competitive
and has low barriers to entry.  The industry has two distinct  customer  groups:
vacation  property renters and vacation  property  owners.  The Company believes
that the principal  competitive  factors in attracting vacation property renters
are: (i) market share and visibility; (ii) quality, cost and breadth of services
and  properties  provided;  and  (iii)  long-term  customer  relationships.  The
principal competitive factors in


                                       55

<PAGE>



attracting  vacation  property  owners are:  (i) the ability to generate  higher
rental income and (ii) comprehensive  management services at competitive prices.
The  Company  competes  for  vacationers  and  property  owners  primarily  with
approximately 3,000 owner-operated companies that typically operate in a limited
geographic  area.  Some of the Company's  competitors  are  affiliated  with the
owners or operators of resorts in which such  competitor  provides its services.
Certain of these smaller competitors may have lower overhead cost structures and
may be able to provide their services at lower rates.

   
     The  Company  also  competes  for  vacationers  with large hotel and resort
companies.  Many of these competitor  companies have greater financial resources
than  the  Company   enabling  them  to  finance   acquisition  and  development
opportunities, to pay higher prices for the same opportunities or to develop and
support their own  operations.  In addition,  many of these  companies can offer
vacationers  services  not provided by vacation  rental and property  management
companies,  and they may have greater name recognition among vacationers.  These
companies  might be  willing  to  sacrifice  profitability  to capture a greater
portion of the market for  vacationers or pay higher prices than the Company for
the same  acquisition  opportunities.  Consequently,  the Company may  encounter
significant  competition in its efforts to achieve its internal and  acquisition
growth objectives as well as its operating  strategies focused on increasing the
profitability of the Operating  Companies and subsequently  acquired  companies.
    

EMPLOYEES

   
     The Company had approximately  2200 employees as of September 30, 1998. The
Company relies significantly on temporary employees to meet peak season demands.
In the course of  performing  service and  maintenance  work,  the Company  also
utilizes  the  services of  independent  contractors.  The Company  believes its
relationships with its employees and independent contractors are good.
    

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     The Company is involved in various  legal  actions  arising in the ordinary
course of business.  The Company believes that none of these actions will have a
material  adverse  effect on its  business,  financial  condition  or results of
operations.

FACILITIES

   
     As of  September  30,  1998,  the  Company  had 91  properties,  consisting
principally of offices, maintenance, laundry and storage facilities, 76 of which
are leased and 15 of which are owned.  Some of the  facilities  operated  by the
Company are leased from related parties. See "Certain  Transactions -- Leases of
Facilities."
    

GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION

     The Company's  operations are subject to various  federal,  state and local
laws and regulations,  including (i) licensing  requirements  applicable to real
estate operations and (ii) laws and regulations relating to consumer protection.
On a federal  level,  the  Federal  Trade  Commission  has taken the most active
regulatory role through the Federal Trade Commission Act, which prohibits unfair
or  deceptive  acts  or  competition  in  interstate  commerce.   Other  federal
legislation  to which the Company is or may be subject  includes the Real Estate
Settlement   Procedures  Act,  the  Fair  Debt  Collection  Practices  Act,  the
Interstate Land Sales Full Disclosure Act,  Telephone  Consumer  Protection Act,
Telemarketing  and Consumer  Fraud and Abuse  Prevention  Act, Fair Housing Act,
Americans With Disabilities Act and the Civil Rights Acts of 1964 and 1968. Many
state and local  regulations  governing real estate services require permits and
licenses to be held by individuals.  In some cases, a required permit or license
held by a single individual may be sufficient to authorize specified  activities
for all the Company's  employees who work in the state or county that issued the
permit or license. In addition,  certain  international laws and regulations may
also be  applicable  to the  Company's  international  operations.  The  Company
believes that it is in material  compliance with all federal,  state,  local and
foreign laws and regulations to which it is currently subject.

     DAVID C.  SULLIVAN  became the Chairman and Chief  Executive  Officer and a

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION; EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS; COVENANTS-NOT-TO-COMPETE

     The Company was incorporated in September 1997, conducted no operations and
generated no revenues  until May 26,  1998,  and did not  compensate  any of its
executive  officers for services rendered in 1997. The Company  anticipates that
during  1998 its most  highly  compensated  executive  officers  will be Messrs.
Sullivan,  Levine,  Jarvis,  Murphy,  Farmer,  Lines and Ms. Sowder. The Company
granted Messrs.  Sullivan,  Levine, Jarvis, Murphy, Farmer, Lines and Ms. Sowder
options to purchase 100,000,  75,000,  50,000, 50,000, 75,000, 25,000 and 25,000
shares of Common Stock,  respectively,  at the initial public  offering price of
$11.00 per share.  These options will vest in equal  installments on each of the
four  anniversaries  of the  date  of the  consummation  of the  initial  public
offering.

     Messrs.  Sullivan,  Levine,  Jarvis,  Murphy,  Farmer, Lines and Ms. Sowder
have  entered  into  employment  agreements  with the Company, effective May 26,
1998,  providing  for  annual  base  salaries  of  $200,000, $162,500, $150,000,
$150,000, $125,000, $125,000 and $125,000, respectively. Each of these


                                       61

<PAGE>



   
agreements  are for a term of three years (the  "Initial  Term").  In  addition,
certain  executive   officers  of  the  Operating   Companies,   including  each
representative of the Operating  Companies serving as a director of the Company,
other than  Messrs.  Brady,  Freeman and Howey,  have  entered  into  employment
agreements for an Initial Term of three years.  Unless terminated or not renewed
by the Company or the employee, the term will continue after the Initial Term on
a year-to-year  basis on the same terms and  conditions  existing at the time of
renewal.  Each  employment  agreement  contains a covenant  not to compete  (the
"Covenant")  with the  Company for a period of two years  immediately  following
termination  of  employment  or,  in the case of a  termination  by the  Company
without  cause in the absence of a change in  control,  for a period of one year
following termination of employment.  Under the Covenant,  the executive officer
generally  is  prohibited   from:  (i)  engaging  in  any  hotel  management  or
non-commercial   property  management,   rental  or  sales  business  in  direct
competition  with the  Company  within  defined  geographic  areas in which  the
Company or its subsidiaries does business;  (ii) enticing a managerial  employee
of the Company  away from the Company;  (iii)  calling upon any person or entity
which is, or has  been,  within  one year  prior to the date of  termination,  a
customer  of  the  Company;  or  (iv)  calling  upon a  prospective  acquisition
candidate which the employee knew was approached or analyzed by the Company, for
the purpose of acquiring the entity. The Covenant may be enforced by injunctions
or  restraining  orders and shall be construed in  accordance  with the changing
location of the Company.
    

     Each of  these  employment  agreements  provides  that,  in the  event of a
termination  of employment by the Company  without cause during the Initial Term
the employee will be entitled to receive from the Company an amount equal to his
or her then  current  salary for the  remainder  of the Initial  Term or for one
year,  whichever is greater. In the event of a termination of employment without
cause after the Initial Term of the employment  agreement,  the employee will be
entitled to receive an amount  equal to his or her then  current  salary for one
year.  In the event of a change in control  of the  Company  (as  defined in the
agreement)  during the Initial  Term, if the employee is not given at least five
days' notice of such change in control and the successor's intent to be bound by
such  employment  agreement,  the  employee  may elect to  terminate  his or her
employment  and  receive in one lump sum three  times the amount he or she would
receive  pursuant to a termination  without  cause during the Initial Term.  The
employment  agreements  also state,  that in the event of a termination  without
cause by the Company or a change in control, the employee may elect to waive the
right to receive severance  compensation and, in such event, the  noncompetition
provisions of the employment agreement will not apply. In the event the employee
is given at least five days' notice of such change in control,  the employee may
elect to terminate his or her  employment  agreement and receive in one lump sum
two times the amount he or she would receive  pursuant to a termination  without
cause during the Initial Term. In such an event, the  noncompetition  provisions
of the employment agreement would apply for two years from the effective date of
termination.

     Each  Agreement  and  Plan  of   Organization   also  contains  a  covenant
prohibiting the former owners of the Founding  Companies from competing with the
Company for a period of three years beginning May 26, 1998. These noncompetition
provisions  will not apply with respect to a former owner of a Founding  Company
who has entered into an employment  agreement  with the Company in the event the
former  owner is  terminated  without  cause  and  elects  to waive the right to
receive severance compensation.


1998 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

     No stock  options were granted to, or exercised by or held by any executive
officer  in 1997.  In March  1998,  the  Board of  Directors  and the  Company's
stockholders  approved the Company's 1998 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "Plan").
The  purpose of the Plan is to provide a means by which the  Company can attract
and  retain  executive  officers,   employee  directors,  other  key  employees,
non-employee  and  advisory  directors  and  consultants  of and  other  service
providers to the Company and its  subsidiaries and to compensate such persons in
a way that provides additional incentives and enables such persons to acquire or
increase a proprietary interest in the Company. Individual awards under the Plan
may take the form of one or more of: (i) either incentive stock options ("ISOs")
or  non-qualified  stock  options  ("NQSOs");  (ii)  stock  appreciation  rights
("SARs"); (iii) restricted or


                                       62

<PAGE>



deferred stock; (iv) dividend  equivalents;  (v) bonus shares and awards in lieu
of Company  obligations to pay cash compensation;  (vi) non-employee  directors'
deferred shares;  and (vii) other awards the value of which is based in whole or
in part upon the value of the Common Stock.

   
     The Plan is administered by a committee (the "Committee"),  which currently
is the Compensation  Committee of the Board of Directors,  except that the Board
of Directors will itself perform the  Committee's  functions  under the Plan for
purposes  of grants of awards to  non-employee  directors,  and may  perform any
other function of the Committee as well. The Committee generally is empowered to
select the  individuals  who will receive awards and the terms and conditions of
those  awards,  including  exercise  prices for  options  and other  exercisable
awards, vesting and forfeiture conditions (if any), performance conditions,  the
extent to which awards may be transferable  and periods during which awards will
remain outstanding. Awards may be settled in cash, shares, other awards or other
property, as determined by the Committee.

     The  Company  has  reserved  2,020,268  shares of  Common  Stock for use in
connection  with the Plan. The maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may
be  subject  to  outstanding  awards  under the Plan will not  exceed 12% of the
aggregate  number of shares of Common  Stock  outstanding,  minus the  number of
shares  previously  issued pursuant to awards granted under the Plan.  Shares of
Common Stock which are attributable to awards which have expired,  terminated or
been canceled or forfeited are available for issuance or use in connection  with
future awards.
    

     The  Plan  provides  for:  (i) the  automatic  grant  to each  non-employee
director  and  advisory  director  (a  "Non-Employee  Director")  serving at the
commencement  of the initial  public  offering  of an option to purchase  10,000
shares; and thereafter (ii) the automatic grant to each Non-Employee Director of
an option to purchase  10,000  shares upon such person's  initial  election as a
director or appointment as an advisory director. In addition,  the Plan provides
for an  automatic  annual  grant to each  Non-Employee  Director of an option to
purchase  5,000  shares at each annual  meeting of  stockholders  following  the
initial public offering;  provided, however, that if the first annual meeting of
stockholders following a person's initial election as a non-employee director or
appointment  by the Board as an advisory  director is within three months of the
date of such election or appointment,  such person will not be granted an option
to purchase 5,000 shares of Common Stock at such annual  meeting.  These options
will have an exercise  price per share equal to the fair market value of a share
at the date of grant.  Options granted under the Plan will expire at the earlier
of 10 years from the date of grant or one year after termination of service as a
director or advisory director, and options will be immediately  exercisable.  In
addition,  the Plan permits Non-Employee  Directors to elect to receive, in lieu
of cash directors' fees, shares, or credits representing  "deferred shares" that
may be settled at future dates, as elected by the  Non-Employee  Directors.  The
number of shares or  deferred  shares  received  will be equal to the  number of
shares  which,  at the date the fees would  otherwise  be payable,  will have an
aggregate  fair  market  value  equal  to  the  amount  of  such  fees.  At  the
commencement of the initial public  offering,  the  Non-Employee  Directors were
Messrs.  Blutinger,  Brady, Bullock,  Freeman, Howey, Potter, Rose, Vittoria and
Weise.

     The Plan will remain in effect until  terminated by the Board of Directors.
The Plan may be amended by the Board of  Directors  without  the  consent of the
stockholders of the Company, except that any amendment,  although effective when
made,  will be subject to  stockholder  approval  if  required by any federal or
state  law or  regulation  or by the rules of any stock  exchange  or  automated
quotation  system on which the Common  Stock may then be listed or  quoted.  The
number  of  shares   reserved  or   deliverable   under  the  Plan,  the  annual
per-participant  limits,  the number of shares subject to options  automatically
granted  to  non-employee   directors  and  the  number  of  shares  subject  to
outstanding awards are subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, stock
dividends and other extraordinary corporate events.

     In  connection  with the initial  public  offering,  options in the form of
NQSOs to purchase a total of 435,000  shares of Common Stock of the Company were
granted to management of the Company,  including 100,000 shares to Mr. Sullivan,
75,000 shares to Mr. Levine,  50,000 shares to Mr. Jarvis,  50,000 shares to Mr.

LLC and  Capstone  Partners,  LLC and an  aggregate  of  920,000  shares  to the
employees  of the  Company and the  Founding  Companies.  Each of the  foregoing
option grants has an exercise price equal to the initial  public  offering price
per share, and vests as to 25% each on the date that is 12 months, 24 months, 36
months and 48 months after the closing of the initial public offering.  Unvested
options  generally will be forfeited  upon a termination  of employment  that is
voluntary  by the  participant.  Upon a change of  control  of the  Company  (as
defined in the Plan),  vesting will be accelerated.  The options  generally will
expire on the earlier of 10 years after the date of grant or three  months after
termination of employment (immediately in the event of a termination for cause),
unless otherwise determined by the Committee.

     Additional options to purchase 1,000 shares of Common Stock were granted at
fair market value at the date of grant in  connection  with the  acquisition  of
Whistler  Exclusive  Properties.  The  remaining  key terms of these options are
identical  to those  contained  in the options  granted to the  employees of the
Founding  Companies.  ResortQuest  is committed to issue  additional  options to
purchase  shares of Common Stock in connection  with the  acquisitions of Abbott
Resorts  and  Plantation  Resort  equal  to 3% of the  purchase  price  for such
acquisitions  divided  by the market  price of the Common  Stock on the date the
options are issued.

                             CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS


ORGANIZATION OF THE COMPANY

   
     RQI was formed in September  1997. RQI was initially  capitalized by Alpine
Consolidated  II, LLC, of which Elan J. Blutinger and D. Fraser Bullock,  each a
Director of the Company, are Managing Directors,  and Capstone Partners, LLC, of
which  Leonard A. Potter,  an Advisory  Director of the  Company,  is a Managing
Director. As a result of an 8,834.76-for-one stock split effected in the form of
a stock dividend on March 9, 1998, the 293.9481 shares of Common Stock initially
issued to Alpine  Consolidated  II, LLC and Capstone  Parnters,  LLC  aggregated
2,596,961 shares on the closing of the initial public offering.
    

     In January  and  February of 1998,  the  Company  issued a total of 518,369
shares  of  Common  Stock  (post-split)  at $.01  (pre-split)  per  share to the
following  directors and members of management:  Mr. Sullivan -- 289,202 shares,
Mr. Levine -- 40,000 shares,  Mr. Jarvis -- 40,000 shares,  Mr. Murphy -- 40,000
shares,  Ms. Sowder -- 25,000 shares,  Mr. Lines -- 25,000 shares, Mr. Farmer --
25,000  shares,  Mr.  Dobson -- 2,000 shares,  Mr.  Brindley -- 1,167 shares and
Allen  Williams -- 31,000  shares.  In November and December of 1997 the Company
issued 19,300 shares  (post-split) of Common Stock at $.01 per share (pre-split)
to certain  consultants to the Company during the same period,  none of whom was
or is an affiliate of the Company. The aggregate cash consideration  received by
the Company for these shares was $0.61.

   
     Prior to the consummation of the initial public offering,  VPI Funding, LLC
("VPIF"), a Delaware limited liability company,  extended loans to RQI from time
to time in an amount  equal to the  legal,  accounting  and other  transactional
costs,  expenses  and  disbursements  incurred  by RQI in  connection  with  the
Combinations  and the initial public  offering.  The member managers of VPIF are
Alpine Consolidated II, LLC and Capstone Partners, LLC. VPIF was repaid, without
interest, by the Company from the gross proceeds of the initial public offering.
Such loans aggregated $1.2 million.

     The aggregate  consideration  paid by RQI in the Combinations  consisted of
(i)  approximately  $54.9  million in cash and (ii)  6,119,656  shares of Common
Stock.  The Company also assumed an aggregate of  approximately  $5.7 million of
indebtedness of the Founding Companies in connection with the Combinations.  The
consideration  paid for each of the Founding  Companies was  determined  through
arm's-length  negotiations  between  RQI and  representatives  of each  Founding
Company.  The factors considered by the Company in determining the consideration
to be paid included,  among others, the historical  operating  results,  the net
worth,  the amount and type of  indebtedness  and the  future  prospects  of the
Founding Companies. Each Founding Company was represented by independent counsel
in the negotiation of the terms and conditions of the Combinations.

     The  aggregate  total  consideration  paid by RQI for each of the  Founding
Companies is as follows:

     The  Preferred  Stock  may be  issued  from  time to time by the  Board  of
Directors  in one or more series.  Subject to the  provisions  of the  Company's
Certificate of  Incorporation  and  limitations  prescribed by law, the Board of
Directors is expressly  authorized to adopt  resolutions to issue the shares, to
fix the number of shares and to change  the  number of shares  constituting  any
series and to provide for or change the voting powers, designations, preferences
and relative,  participating,  optional or other special rights, qualifications,
limitations  or  restrictions  thereof,  including  dividend  rights  (including
whether  dividends  are  cumulative),   dividend  rates,   terms  of  redemption
(including sinking


                                       73

<PAGE>



fund  provisions),   redemption   prices,   conversion  rights  and  liquidation
preferences of the shares  constituting  any series of the Preferred  Stock,  in
each case without any further  action or vote by the  stockholders.  The Company
has no current plans to issue any shares of Preferred Stock.

     One of the  effects of  undesignated  Preferred  Stock may be to enable the
Board of  Directors  to render more  difficult  or to  discourage  an attempt to
obtain control of the Company by means of a tender offer, proxy contest,  merger
or otherwise, and thereby to protect the continuity of the Company's management.
The  issuance  of  shares  of the  Preferred  Stock  pursuant  to the  Board  of
Directors'  authority  described  above may  adversely  affect the rights of the
holders of Common Stock. For example,  Preferred Stock issued by the Company may
rank prior to the Common Stock as to dividend rights,  liquidation preference or
both, may have full or limited voting rights and may be convertible  into shares
of Common  Stock.  Accordingly,  the issuance of shares of  Preferred  Stock may
discourage  bids for the  Common  Stock or may  otherwise  adversely  affect the
market price of the Common Stock.


STATUTORY BUSINESS COMBINATION PROVISION

     The  Company  is  subject  to the  provisions  of  Section  203 of the DGCL
("Section 203"). Section 203 provides, with certain exceptions,  that a Delaware
corporation may not engage in any of a broad range of business combinations with
a person or an affiliate or  associate  of such  person,  who is an  "interested
stockholder"  for a period of three years from the date that such person  became
an interested  stockholder  unless:  (i) the  transaction  resulting in a person
becoming an interested stockholder,  or the business combination, is approved by
the  Board  of  Directors  of the  corporation  before  the  person  becomes  an
interested stockholder;  (ii) the interested stockholder acquired 85% or more of
the  outstanding  voting stock of the corporation in the same  transaction  that
makes such person an interested  stockholder  (excluding shares owned by persons
who are both  officers  and  directors  of the  corporation,  and shares held by
certain  employee  stock  ownership  plans);  or (iii) on or after  the date the
person becomes an interested  stockholder,  the business combination is approved
by the  corporation's  board of directors  and by the holders of at least 66% of
the  corporation's  outstanding  voting  stock at an annual or special  meeting,
excluding  shares owned by the  interested  stockholder.  Under  Section 203, an
"interested stockholder" is defined as any person who is (i) the owner of 15% or
more of the outstanding  voting stock of the corporation or (ii) an affiliate or
associate  of the  corporation  and  who  was  the  owner  of 15% or more of the
outstanding  voting stock of the  corporation  at any time within the three-year
period  immediately  prior to the date on which it is  sought  to be  determined
whether such person is an interested stockholder.

     The Company's stockholders,  by adopting an amendment to the Certificate of
Incorporation, may elect not to be governed by Section 203, which election would
be effective 12 months after such adoption.  The provisions of Section 203 could
delay or frustrate a change in control of the  Company,  deny  stockholders  the
receipt of a premium  on their  Common  Stock and have an adverse  effect on the
Common Stock. The provisions also could  discourage,  impede or prevent a merger
or tender  offer,  even if such event would be  favorable  to the  interests  of
stockholders.


LIMITATION ON DIRECTORS' LIABILITIES

     Limitation  on  Liability.   Pursuant  to  the  Company's   Certificate  of
Incorporation  and as permitted by Section  102(b)(7) of the DGCL,  directors of
the  Company  are not liable to the  Company or its  stockholders  for  monetary
damages for breach of fiduciary duty,  except for liability in connection with a
breach  of duty of  loyalty,  for acts or  omissions  not in good  faith or that
involve  intentional  misconduct  or a knowing  violation  of law,  for dividend
payments or stock  repurchases  that are illegal  under  Delaware law or for any
transaction in which a director has derived an improper personal benefit.

     Indemnification. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Certificate of
Incorporation  provides for mandatory  indemnification of directors and officers
of the Company  against  any  expense,  liability  and loss to which they become
subject,  or which  they may  incur as a result  of having  been a  director  or
officer of the  Company.  In  addition,  the Company  must  advance or reimburse
directors and officers for expenses  incurred by them in connection with certain
claims.

ADVANCE NOTICE REQUIREMENTS FOR DIRECTOR NOMINEES.

     The Company's  By-Laws provide that nomination for election to the Board of
Directors must be made or approved by the Board of Directors.  In addition,  the
By-Laws establish an advance notice procedure with regard to the nomination by a
stockholder   of  candidates  for  election  as  directors  at  any  meeting  of
stockholders called for the election of directors. The procedure provides that a
notice  relating to the  nomination of directors must be timely given in writing
to the Chairman of the Board of  Directors of the Company  prior to the meeting.
To be timely,  notice  relating to the nomination of directors must be delivered
not less  than 14 days  nor more  than 60 days  prior  to any  such  meeting  of
stockholders called for the election of directors. Notwithstanding the forgoing,
if a stockholder wishes the Board of Directors,  or a duly authorized  committee
of the Board of Directors,  to consider  nominating for election to the Board of
Directors  a person  recommended  by such  stockholder,  such  stockholder  must
deliver a notice setting forth such  recommendation to the Chairman of the Board
of Directors not less than 90 days nor more than 150 days prior to the meeting.

     Any notice to the Company  from a  stockholder  who  proposes to nominate a
person for election as a director must be accompanied by each proposed nominee's
written consent and contain the name,  address and principal  occupation of each
proposed  nominee.  Such notice must also  contain the total number of shares of
capital  stock  of the  Company  that  will be voted  for  each of the  proposed
nominees,  the name and address of the notifying  stockholder  and the number of
shares of capital stock of the Company owned by the notifying stockholder.

     The  Company's  By-Laws (i) may have the effect of  precluding a nomination
for the  election  of  directors  or  precluding  the  conduct of  business at a
particular  meeting  if the  proper  procedures  are not  followed  or (ii)  may
discourage or deter a third party from  conducting a solicitation  of proxies to
elect its own slate of directors or otherwise  attempting  to obtain  control of
the Company,  even if the conduct of such  solicitation or such attempt might be
beneficial to the Company and its stockholders.


TRANSFER AGENT AND REGISTRAR

     The Transfer  Agent and  Registrar  for the Common Stock is American  Stock
Transfer & Trust Company.

                         SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

   
     At September 30, 1998,  the Company had  outstanding  16,873,265  shares of
Common  Stock.  The  6,670,000  shares sold in the initial  public  offering are
freely  tradable  without  restriction  unless  acquired  by  affiliates  of the
Company.  The stockholders of the Founding  Companies  received in the aggregate
6,119,656  shares  in  connection  with the  Combinations,  and  management  and
founders of ResortQuest  own an aggregate of 3,134,630  shares.  These 9,254,286
shares have not been registered under the Securities Act and, therefore, may not
be sold  unless  registered  under the  Securities  Act or sold  pursuant  to an
exemption  from  registration,  such as the  exemption  provided  by  Rule  144.
Furthermore,  these  stockholders have separately agreed with the Company not to
sell,  transfer  or  otherwise  dispose  of any of  these  shares  for one  year
following the closing of the initial public offering (until May 26, 1999). These
stockholders  also have certain demand  registration  rights beginning two years
after the initial public offering and certain piggyback registration rights with
respect to these shares.

     In general,  under Rule 144 as currently in effect, if one year has elapsed
since  the  later of the date of the  acquisition  of the  restricted  shares of
Common  Stock from  either the  Company or any  affiliate  of the  Company,  the
acquiror or subsequent  holder thereof may sell,  within any three-month  period
commencing 90 days after the date of the Prospectus relating to the Offering,  a
number of shares  that does not  exceed the  greater of one  percent of the then
outstanding  shares of the Common Stock, or the average weekly trading volume of
the Common Stock on the New York Stock  Exchange  during the four calendar weeks
preceding  the  date  on  which  notice  of the  proposed  sale  is  sent to the
Commission.  Sales  under Rule 144 are also  subject  to certain  manner of sale
provisions,   notice   requirements  and  the  availability  of  current  public
information about the Company.  If two years have elapsed since the later of the
date of the acquisition of restricted shares of Common Stock from the Company or
any  affiliate  of the  Company,  a person  who is not  deemed  to have  been an
affiliate  of the  Company  at any time for 90 days  preceding  a sale  would be
entitled  to sell such  shares  under  Rule 144  without  regard  to the  volume
limitations, manner of sale provisions or notice requirements.

     ResortQuest  has issued 948,979  shares of Common Stock in connection  with
the  acquisitions  of Abbott  Resorts  and  Plantation  Resort of these  shares,
919,965  shares were covered by this  registration  statement and 748,363 shares
are subject to certain contractual transfer restrictions until October 2000.
    

     The Company has agreed not to offer,  sell,  contract to sell or  otherwise
dispose of any shares of Common Stock,  or any  securities  convertible  into or
exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, for a period of 180 days after the
date of the initial public  offering  without the prior written consent of Smith
Barney Inc. on behalf of the Underwriters. The holders of all shares outstanding
prior to the initial public offering, the stockholders of the Founding Companies
who received  shares of Common Stock in exchange for their stock in the Founding
Companies and certain  non-employee  directors  have agreed not to offer,  sell,
contract  to sell or  otherwise  dispose of any shares of Common  Stock,  or any
securities  convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock for
a period of one year from the date of the closing of the initial public offering
without  the  prior  written  consent  of Smith  Barney  Inc.  on  behalf of the
Underwriters.  The foregoing restrictions will not apply: (i) in the case of the
Company,  to options or shares of Common Stock issued  pursuant to the Company's
1998 Long-Term Incentive Plan or in connection with acquisitions and (ii) in the
case of all  holders  shares of Common  Stock  disposed  of as bona fide  gifts,
subject in each case to any remaining portion of the one year or 180-day period,
as applicable, to any shares so issued or transferred. In evaluating any request
for a waiver of the one year or 180-day  lock-up  period,  as applicable,  Smith
Barney Inc. will  consider,  in  accordance  with its  customary  practice,  all
relevant facts and circumstances at the time of the request, including,  without
limitation,  the recent  trading  market for the Common  Stock,  the size of the
request and, with respect to a request by the Company to issue additional equity
securities, the purpose of such an issuance.

     The 3,000,000  shares of Common Stock registered by the Company pursuant to
this shelf  registration  statement and prospectus for use as  consideration  in
future  acquisitions  will be, upon issuance  thereof,  freely  tradable  unless
acquired by parties to the acquisition or affiliates of such parties, other than
the issuer, in which case they may be sold pursuant to Rule 145 under the


                                       76

<PAGE>



Securities Act. Rule 145 permits such persons to resell  immediately  securities
acquired in  transactions  covered under the Rule,  provided such securities are
resold in accordance with the public information,  volume limitations and manner
of sale  requirements of Rule 144. If a period of one year has elapsed since the
date such securities  were acquired in such  transaction and if the issuer meets
the public  information  requirements of Rule 144, Rule 145 permits a person who
is not an affiliate of the issuer to freely resell such securities.  The Company
intends  to seek  contractual  restrictions  on the  resale  of these  shares in
connection with future  acquisitions  that are as restrictive as those described
in the preceding paragraph,  however,  such restrictions may not be available in
certain  cases,  such as in  transactions  accounted  for using the  pooling  of
interests method of accounting.

     Sales, or the availability for sale of,  substantial  amounts of the Common
Stock in the public market could adversely affect  prevailing  market prices and
the ability of the Company to raise equity capital in the future.

                              PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION


THE COMPANY

     The shares of Common Stock covered by the  Prospectus are available for use
in future  acquisitions  of businesses,  properties or securities of entities or
persons  engaged in the  vacation  rental and property  management  industry and
other  related  businesses.  The  consideration  offered by the  Company in such
acquisitions,  in addition to the Common Stock  offered by the  Prospectus,  may
include cash, debt or other Company securities,  or assumption by the Company of
liabilities of the businesses being acquired,  or a combination  thereof.  It is
contemplated   that  the  terms  of  each  acquisition  will  be  determined  by
negotiations  between the Company and the management or the owners of the assets
to be  acquired  or  the  owners  of  the  securities  (including  newly  issued
securities) to be acquired,  with the Company taking into account the quality of
the management, the past and potential earning power and growth of the assets or
securities to be acquired,  and other relevant  factors.  It is anticipated that
the Common  Stock  issued in  acquisitions  hereunder  will be valued at a price
reasonably  related to the market  value of the Common  Stock either at the time
the terms of the acquisition are tentatively agreed upon or at or about the time
or times of delivery of the shares.

   
SELLING STOCKHOLDERS
    

     Selling  Stockholders  or permitted  transferees may from time to time sell
the  shares  offered by them  hereunder  in  transactions  in which they and any
broker-dealer through whom such shares are sold may be deemed to be underwriters
within the meaning of the  Securities  Act. The Company will receive none of the
proceeds  from  any  such  sales.   There   presently  are  no  arrangements  or
understandings, formal or informal, pertaining to the distribution of the shares
of Common Stock described  herein.  Upon the Company being notified by a Selling
Stockholder  that  any  material  arrangement  has  been  entered  into  with  a
broker-dealer  for the sale of  shares of Common  Stock  bought  through a block
trade,  special offering,  exchange  distribution or secondary  distribution,  a
supplemented  Prospectus  will be  filed,  pursuant  to Rule  424(b)  under  the
Securities Act,  setting forth (i) the name of each Selling  Stockholder and the
participating  broker-dealer(s),  (ii) the number of shares involved,  (iii) the
price at which the shares were sold, (iv) the commissions  paid or the discounts
allowed   to  such   broker-dealer(s),   where   applicable,   (v)   that   such
broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set
out in this Prospectus and (vi) other facts material to the transaction.

     Selling  Stockholders may sell the shares being offered hereby from time to
time in transactions  (which may involve crosses and block  transactions) on the
NYSE, in negotiated  transactions or otherwise,  at market prices  prevailing at
the time of the sale or at negotiated prices. Selling Stockholders may sell some
or all of the  shares  in  transactions  involving  broker-dealers,  who may act
solely  as  agent  and/or  may  acquire  shares  as  principal.   Broker-dealers
participating in such transactions as agent may receive commissions from Selling
Stockholders  (and, if they act as agent for the purchaser of such shares,  from
such purchaser),  such commissions  computed in appropriate  cases in accordance
with the applicable  rules of the NYSE,  which  commissions may be at negotiated
rates where permissible under such rules. Participating broker-dealers may agree
with Selling  Stockholders to sell a specified  number of shares at a stipulated
price per share and, to the extent such  broker-dealer is unable to do so acting
as an agent for the Selling  Stockholder,  to purchase as  principal  any unsold
shares at the price  required  to  fulfill  the  broker-dealer's  commitment  to
Selling  Stockholders.  In  addition  or  alternatively,  shares  may be sold by
Selling  Stockholders  and/or by or  through  other  broker-dealers  in  special
offerings,  exchange distributions or secondary distributions pursuant to and in
compliance  with the governing  rules of the NYSE,  and in connection  therewith
commissions in excess of the customary  commission  prescribed by such governing
rules may be paid to  participating  broker-dealers,  or, in the case of certain
secondary distributions, a discount or concession from the offering price may be
allowed to participating  broker-dealers in excess of the customary  commission.
Broker-dealers who acquire shares as principal may thereafter resell such shares
from  time to  time  in  transactions  (which  may  involve  crosses  and  block
transactions  and which may involve  sales to or through  other  broker-dealers,
including transactions of the nature described in


                                       78

<PAGE>



the  preceding  two  sentences)  on the  NYSE,  in  negotiated  transactions  or
otherwise,  at market prices prevailing at the time of the sale or at negotiated
prices,  and in connection  with such resales may pay to or receive  commissions
from the purchaser of such shares.

   
     In  connection  with the  distribution  of the Common  Stock,  the  Selling
Stockholders  may  enter  into  hedging  transactions  with  broker-dealers.  In
connection with such  transactions,  broker-dealers may engage in short sales of
the Common Stock  registered  hereunder  in the course of hedging the  positions
they assume with the Selling  Stockholders.  The Selling  Stockholders  may also
sell  shares  short and  redeliver  the  Common  Stock to close  out such  short
positions.  The  Selling  Stockholders  may  also  enter  into  option  or other
transactions with broker-dealers which require the delivery to the broker-dealer
of the Common Stock registered hereunder,  which the broker-dealer may resell or
otherwise  transfer  pursuant to this Prospectus.  The Selling  Stockholders may
also loan or pledge the Common Stock registered hereunder to a broker-dealer and
the  broker-dealer  may sell the  Common  Stock so loaned or upon a default  the
broker-dealer  may effect  sales of the pledged  Common  Stock  pursuant to this
Prospectus.
    

     The  Company  may  agree  to  indemnify  each  Selling  Stockholder  as  an
Underwriter  under the Securities  Act against  certain  liabilities,  including
liabilities  arising  under the  Securities  Act. Each Selling  Stockholder  may
indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving sales of
the shares against certain  liabilities,  including arising under the Securities
Act.

     The Selling  Stockholders may resell the shares offered hereby only if such
securities  are qualified for sale under  applicable  state  securities or "blue
sky" laws or exemptions from such  registration  and qualified  requirements are
available.


                                  LEGAL MATTERS

     The validity of the issuance of the shares of Common Stock  offered by this
Prospectus will be passed upon for the Company by Akin, Gump,  Strauss,  Hauer &

                        RESORTQUEST INTERNATIONAL, INC.,

                UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                              BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     On  May  26,  1998,  ResortQuest  International, Inc. ("ResortQuest" or the
"Company")   consummated  its  initial  public  offering  (the  "IPO")  and  the
combination  (the  "Combinations") of 12 vacation rental and property management
companies  and  one  leading  vacation  rental  and property management software
company.   Additionally,  on  September  30,  1998,  ResortQuest  completed  the
acquisition  of  Abbott  Realty Services, Inc. ("Abbott Resorts"). The following
unaudited   pro   forma   combined  financial  statements  give  effect  to  the
acquisition  of  Abbott  Resorts  and  the  acquisitions  by ResortQuest, of the
outstanding  capital  stock  of  Hotel  Corporation of the Pacific, Inc. ("Aston
Hotels  & Resorts"), Brindley & Brindley Realty, Inc. and B&B On The Beach, Inc.
(collectively  "Brindley  and  Brindley"),  Coastal Resorts Management, Inc. and
Coastal  Resorts  Realty, L.L.C. (collectively "Coastal Resorts"), Collection of
Fine  Properties, Inc. ("CFP"), First Resort Software, Inc. ("FRS"), Houston and
O'Leary  Company  ("H&O"),  Maui  Condo  & Home Realty, Inc. ("Maui"), The Maury
People,  Inc.  ("Maury"),  Howey  Acquisition, Inc. and Priscilla Murphy Realty,
Inc.  (collectively  "PMR"), Resort Property Management, Inc. ("RPM"), Telluride
Resort  Accommodations,  Inc.  ("TRA"),  Trupp-Hodnett Enterprises, Inc. and THE
Management   Company   (collectively   "THE"),   and  Whistler  Chalets  Limited
("Whistler"),  (collectively  the  "Founding  Companies").  The  acquisitions of
Abbott  Resorts and the Combinations are accounted for using the purchase method
of  accounting.  Aston Hotels & Resorts, one of the Founding Companies, has been
designated  as  the  accounting  acquiror  (for financial statement presentation
purposes)  in  the  Combinations  in  accordance  with  Securities  and Exchange
Commission  Staff  Accounting  Bulletin No. 97 ("SAB 97"), which states that the
combining  company  which  receives  the largest portion of voting rights in the
combined  corporation  is  presumed  to  be the acquiror for accounting purposes
unless  other  evidence  clearly indicates that another company is the acquiror.
Management  has  analyzed  the  factors as set forth in SAB 97 that may indicate
Aston  Hotels  &  Resorts  should  not  be  deemed  to  be  accounting acquiror,
including  (1)  the  existing  conversion rights of the Restricted Common Stock,
(2)  Aston  Hotels  &  Resorts'  level of representation on the Board and in the
holding  company  management team and (3) the market value of the shares held by
Aston  Hotels  &  Resorts  and  the  existing  shareholder group. Management has
concluded  that none of these factors, either individually, or in the aggregate,
is  sufficient  to rebut the presumption that the shareholders of Aston Hotels &
Resorts should be deemed the accounting acquiror.

     The  unaudited  pro forma  combined  balance  sheets  give effect to i) the
recorded  balances of ResortQuest  at June 30, 1998, and ii) the  acquisition of
Abbott Resorts by ResortQuest  as if such  transaction  had occurred on June 30,
1998. The unaudited pro forma combined  statements of operations  give effect to
the  Combinations,  the IPO and the  acquisition  of Abbott  Resorts  as if such
transactions had occurred on January 1, 1997.

     The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations of ResortQuest for
the six months ended June 30, 1998 does not include the compensation expense and
management  recruitment  expense,  relating to the non-recurring  charge of $6.1
million,  in  conjunction  with the issuance of common stock to  management  and
founders of ResortQuest  and other costs,  prior to the Offering.  Additionally,
the unaudited pro forma combined  balance sheets and statements of operations do
not include the effects of the Company's  acquisitions of Plantation  Resort and
Whistler  Exclusive,  as such  acquisitions  are immaterial to  ResortQuest  for
presentation purposes.

     In conjunction with the consummation of the above transactions, the Company
expects to realize  certain  savings  as a result of (i) volume  purchasing  and
national contracts for telecommunications,  credit fees, advertising,  printing,
housekeeping  supplies and other operating  expenses and (ii)  consolidation  of
insurance,  employee benefits and other general and administrative expenses. The
Company cannot quantify these savings accurately at this time. It is anticipated
that these  savings  will be  partially  offset by the costs of being a publicly
traded company and the incremental costs related to the Company's new management
team. However, these costs, like the savings that they offset,
    

                                      F-3

<PAGE>



   
cannot be quantified  accurately.  Neither these  anticipated  savings nor these
anticipated  costs  have  been  included  in the pro  forma  combined  financial
information  of the Company.  To the extent the owners and certain key employees
of the Combinations  and Abbott Resorts have agreed  prospectively to reductions
in salary,  bonuses and benefits,  these  reductions  have been reflected in the
unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations.

     The pro forma  adjustments  are based on preliminary  estimates,  available
information and certain assumptions and may be revised as additional information
becomes available.  In management's opinion, the pro forma information presented
herein  should  not  materially  change  from  the  preliminary  estimates.  The
unaudited  pro  forma  financial  data do not  purport  to  represent  what  the
Company's  financial  position or results of operations would actually have been
if such transactions in fact had occurred on those dates and are not necessarily
representative of the Company's  financial position or results of operations for
any future  period.  Since the Founding  Companies  and Abbott  Resorts were not
under  common  control or  management,  historical  combined  results may not be
comparable  to, or indicative  of, future  performance.  The unaudited pro forma
combined  financial  statements  should  be read in  conjunction  with the other
financial statement and notes thereto included elsewhere in the Prospectus.  See
"Risk Factors" included elsewhere herein.

                         RESORTQUEST INTERNATIONAL, INC.
                          NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA
                          COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   GENERAL:

     On May  26,  1998,  ResortQuest  consummated  the  IPO  and  completed  the
Combinations of the Founding  Companies.  The consideration for the Combinations
consisted of cash and common stock.  The  Combinations  were accounted for under
the purchase method of accounting. Aston Hotels & Resorts has been designated as
the  accounting  acquiror  for  financial  statement  presentation  purposes  in
accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No.
97, which states that the combining  company which receives the largest  portion
of voting rights in the combined  corporation is presumed to be the acquiror for
accounting  purposes.   On  September  30,  1998,   ResortQuest   completed  the
acquisition of Abbot Resorts.  Accordingly,  the historical financial statements
of ResortQuest  reflect the financial  position and results of operations of the
parent company of ResortQuest ("RQI"), the Founding Companies and Abbott Resorts
as of June 30,  1998,  and for the year ended  December  31,  1997,  and the six
months  ended  June 30,  1997 and 1998,  and were  derived  from the  respective
financial  statements where indicated.  The historical  financial  statements of
ResortQuest  represent  the  results  of  Aston  Hotels &  Resorts  prior to the
Combinations  and the IPO, and only include  balances  and  transactions  of the
Founding  Companies  since May 27, 1998.  Additionally,  the unaudited pro forma
combined  balance sheets and statements of operations do not include the effects
of the Company's  acquisitions of Plantation Resort and Whistler  Exclusive,  as
such acquisitions are immaterial to ResortQuest for presentation purposes.

     The unaudited pro forma  statement of operations of ResortQuest for the six
months  ended  June 30,  1998 does not  include  the  compensation  expense  and
management  recruitment  expense,  relating to the non-recurring  charge of $6.1
million,  in  conjunction  with the issuances of common stock to management  and
founders of RQI and other costs, prior to the Offering.

2.   UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED BALANCE SHEET ADJUSTMENTS:

     The following table  summarizes  unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet
adjustments (in thousands):


         DESCRIPTION                                            AMOUNT
         ----------------------------------------------   ------------------
         Goodwill .....................................      $   31,547 (a)
         Long-term debt, net of current maturities ....         (26,530)(b)
         Other long-term liabilities ..................             437 (c)
         Common stock .................................              (7)(d)
         Additional paid-in-capital ...................          (6,617)(e)
         Retained earnings ............................           1,170 (f)
                                                             ----------
                                                             $       --
                                                             ==========

- ----------
     The above table  reflects the  adjustments  related to the  acquisition  of
     Abbott Resorts including:

     (a)  The goodwill related to the issuance of Common Stock and the cash paid
          to satisfy the purchase price.

     (b)  The increase in ResortQuest's  line of credit to fund the cash portion
          of the purchase price.

     (c)  The elimination of minority interest liability.

     (d)  Issuance of 757,040  shares of Common  Stock to satisfy  the  purchase
          price at a par value of $.01 per share,  net of the elimination of the
          Abbott Resorts' common stock.

     (e)  The increase in additional paid-in-capital for the issuance of 757,040
          shares of Common Stock at fair value, net of the elimination of Abbott
          Resorts' additional paid-in-capital.

                          NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA
                  COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED )

   
     (f)  The elimination of Abbott Resorts' retained earnings.

3.   UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS ADJUSTMENTS:

     (a)  Reflects  additional  revenue  that  ResortQuest  would have  realized
          related to certain  property  management  contracts with affiliates of
          the Founding Companies and Abbott Resorts.  These management contracts
          were  reflective of below market rates and have been  renegotiated  in
          conjunction with the acquisitions.

     (b)  Reflects  (i) a reduction in  salaries,  bonuses and benefits  derived
          from  contractual  agreements  which establish the compensation of the
          owners and certain key employees of the Founding  Companies and Abbott
          Resorts and (ii) the effect of the exclusion of certain  non-operating
          assets and the  assumption  of or  retirement  of certain  liabilities
          (including   interest  expense)  that  will  be  retained  by  certain
          stockholders of the Founding Companies.

          The  reduction  in  salaries,   bonuses  and  benefits   reflects  the
          difference  between  historical  combined  management  compensation of
          approximately $2.5 million,  $1.3 million and $5.5 million as compared
          to  the  contractual  compensation  of  $771,000,  $771,000  and  $1.9
          million,  respectively,  for the six months  ended  June 30,  1998 and
          1997, and the year ended December 31, 1997, respectively.

     (c)  Reflects  amortization of goodwill (which is not deductible for income
          tax  purposes)  recorded  as a  result  of the  Combinations  and  the
          acquisition  of Abbott Resorts over a 40-year  period,  except for the
          goodwill   related  to  First   Resort,   which   will  be   amortized
          straight-line over a 15-year period.

     (d)  Reflects the provision for federal and state income taxes  relating to
          converting  certain  operations to C Corporation  status and including
          the tax impact of pro forma adjustments.

     (e)  Reflects the estimated interest expense related to the debt assumed in
          conjunction with ResortQuest  funding the cash portion of the purchase
          price related to the acquisition of Abbott Resorts.

     While  ResortQuest  could  pay a  maximum  bonus  of 50%  (except  for  two
executives at 100%) of a key employee's base pay,  bonuses are not factored into
the prospective  compensation as ResortQuest does not anticipate  paying bonuses
in fiscal 1998. The maximum  amount that could be paid would be $700,000.  These
bonuses,  if paid in future  periods,  would increase  expenses and  unfavorably
impact net earnings, accordingly.

4.   NET INCOME PER SHARE

     The shares used in computing  net income per share  include:  (i) 3,134,630
shares issued to management of and founders of RQI; (ii) 6,119,656 shares issued
to  the   stockholders  of  the  Founding   Companies  in  connection  with  the
Combinations;  and (iii) 6,670,000 shares issued in connection with the Offering
necessary to pay the $54.9  million cash  portion of the  consideration  for the
Combinations and (iv) 757,040 shares issued to pay for a portion of the purchase
price related to the  acquisition  of Abbott  Resorts.  Related to the six month
period ended June 30, 1998,  diluted net income per share includes the effect of
1,807,000 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance pursuant to the Company's
1998 Long-Term  Incentive  Plan, of which options to purchase  1,697,000  shares
granted by the Company concurrently with the Offering at an exercise price equal
to the initial public offering price.

5.   ABBOTT RESORTS INFORMATION

     The 1998  unaudited pro forma  results of Abbott  Resorts are as of and for
the six months ended June 30, 1998. The audited financial  statements for Abbott
Resorts as of and for the year  ended July 31,  1998 are  included  within  this
Prospectus. Due to the seasonal nature of Abbott Resorts' operations,  operating
income may vary  significantly.  For the twelve months ended July 31, 1998,  the
following operating income and unaudited pro forma adjustments were noted:
    

   
  DESCRIPTION                                                         AMOUNT
  --------------------------------------------------------------- -------------
  Operating income, including interest income of $333,962........  $1,383,717

  Pro forma adjustments:
    Add stockholder salaries and benefits to be reduced or
     terminated .................................................   2,203,000
    Add increase in rental commissions related to contracts at
     favorable terms with affiliates ............................     546,000
                                                                   ----------
                                                                   $4,132,717
                                                                   ==========

     Additionally,  the above  adjustments do not reflect an additional  revenue
source related to a reservation fee surcharge  implemented in June,  1998, which
if annualized, would approximate $780,000.

To ResortQuest International, Inc.:

     We  have   audited  the   accompanying   balance   sheets  of   ResortQuest

1997.  These  financial  statements  are  the  responsibility  of the  Company's
management.  Our  responsibility  is to express  an  opinion on these  financial
statements based on our audits.
    

     We conducted  our audits in accordance  with  generally  accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

   
     In our opinion,  the financial statements referred to above present fairly,

                (FORMERLY HOTEL CORPORATION OF THE PACIFIC, INC.)

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION:

     ResortQuest  International,  Inc. (the "Company" or "ResortQuest") formerly
known as Hotel Corporation of the Pacific, Inc. (the "Company" or "Aston"),  was
formed to create the leading  provider of vacation  condominium and home rentals
and  management in premier  destination  resorts.  Effective with the closing of
ResortQuest's  initial public  offering (the "IPO") on May 26, 1998, the Company
acquired 12 vacation  rental and property  management  companies and one leading
vacation rental and property management  software company (the  "Combinations").
However,  for  accounting  and reporting  purposes.  Aston was identified as the
accounting  acquiror and the remaining Founding Companies along with ResortQuest
were accounted for under the purchase method of accounting.

     Accordingly, the historical unaudited consolidated financial statements for
the three-  and  six-month  periods  ended June 30,  1997 and 1998  include  the
financial  results of Aston prior to the  Combinations  and the IPO, and include
the combined balances and transactions of ResortQuest and the Founding Companies
only since May 26, 1998.  Comparability of actual results for the quarter,  year
to date and prior years may be misleading and are not necessarily  indicative of
the results of the combined operations.

     Hotel  Corporation  of the  Pacific,  Inc. was a Hawaii  corporation  which
operated  under  the trade  names  "Aston  Hotels &  Resorts,"  "Aston  Property
Management"  and  "Aston."  Aston  provides  hotel  and  resort  management  and
condominium  association  management services in the state of Hawaii.  Hotel and
resort management  services are provided to either  individual  condominium unit
owners,  owners of multiple  units within single  condominium  projects  (resort
rental  programs),  or single-owner  projects or hotel  properties.  Condominium
association  management  services  are  provided to  associations  of  apartment
owners. In many instances,  the Company manages both the condominium association
and a resort rental  program  within the same project.  The Company  maintains a
portfolio of approximately 5,000 units in its rental program.
    

     Hotel and resort  condominium  rental program  management  services include
centralized  sales and marketing,  reservations,  accounting,  human  resources,
electronic  data  processing,  telephone  equipment  support and  management  of
on-site  personnel.  The Company  also  operates  food and  beverage  facilities
located in two resorts managed by the Company. As of December 31, 1996 and 1997,
the  Company  provided  resort  and  hotel  management  services  to 28  and  29
condominium resorts or hotels, respectively, and provided condominium management
services to 17 and 16 condominium associations, respectively.

   
     The Company also leases and operates hotel properties. The Company began to
implement its plan to discontinue  the leasing of the leased  properties  during
the second quarter of 1998 as discussed in Note 5, "Discontinued  Operations and
Disposition of Assets and Liabilities."  Consequently,  the financial statements
present the net assets  (liabilities),  results of operations  and cash flows of
these leased properties as discontinued operations.

     In connection with the Combinations,  certain  liabilities were retained by
one of the stockholders  and one stockholder  agreed to reductions in salary and
benefits  which  would have  reduced  general  and  administrative  expenses  by
$380,000,  $282,000  and  $282,000  for 1995,  1996 and 1997,  respectively.  In
addition,  certain  stockholders  retained  non-operating  assets and assumed or
retired certain liabilities that were excluded from the Combinations.

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

     Cash and Cash Equivalents

     For the purposes of the balance  sheets and  statements of cash flows,  the
Company  considers all investments  with original  maturities of three months or
less to be cash equivalents.

     Inventories

     Inventories  consist primarily of food and beverage items and are stated at
the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market.

     Property and Equipment
    

     Property  and  equipment  are  stated at cost or, in the case of  equipment
acquired  under  capital  leases,  the present  value of future lease  payments.
Depreciation  is computed  using the  straight-line  method  over the  estimated
useful lives of the assets or the remaining lease terms.

   
     Expenditures  for  repairs  and  maintenance  are  charged to expense  when
incurred.  Expenditures  for major  renewals  and  betterments  which extend the
useful  lives of  existing  equipment  are  capitalized  and  depreciated.  Upon
retirement  or  disposition  of  property  and  equipment,  the cost and related
accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or
loss is recognized in the statements of operations.

     Intangible Assets and Amortization

     The   Combinations   were  accounted  for  using  the  purchase  method  of
accounting.  The excess of  consideration  paid over the estimated fair value of
the net assets  acquired  less  liabilities  assumed is  recorded  as  goodwill.
Allocations of the purchase  price to assets  acquired and  liabilities  assumed
have been initially assigned and recorded based on preliminary estimates of fair
value and may be revised as additional  information  concerning the valuation of
such assets and liabilities becomes available.

     Goodwill is being amortized on a straight-line  basis over 40 years,  other
than that associated with the  acquisition of the property  management  software
company,  which will be amortized over 15 years,  representing  the  approximate
remaining  useful  life  of  acquired  intangible  assets.  In  accordance  with
Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  No.  121,  "Accounting  for the
Impairment  of  Long-Lived  Assets and for  Long-Lived  Assets to be  Disposed",
subsequent to an acquisition,  the Company  continually  evaluates whether later
events and  circumstances  have  occurred  that  indicate the remaining net book
value may warrant revision or may not be recoverable. When factors indicate that
the net book value should be evaluated for possible impairment, the Company uses
an estimate of the related  business's  undiscounted  operating  income over the
remaining  life of the cost in excess of net assets of acquired  businesses,  in
measuring whether such cost is recoverable.

     Income Taxes

     Aston had elected S Corporation  status as defined by the Internal  Revenue
Code and state tax statutes,  whereby the Company is not subject to taxation for
federal or state purposes.  Under S Corporation  status, the stockholders report
their share of the Company's  taxable  earnings or losses in their  personal tax
returns.

     In  conjunction  with  the  Combinations,  the  Company  changed  from an S
Corporation  to a C  Corporation  for  federal  and state  income tax  reporting
purposes,  which  requires  the Company to  recognize  the tax  consequences  of
operations  in  its  statements  of  operations.   The  supplemental  pro  forma
information  included in the accompanying  statements of operations  reflect the
estimated impact of recognizing  income tax expense as if the Company had been a
C Corporation for tax reporting  purposes for the six months ended June 30, 1997
and 1998, and for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995.
    

     Concentration of Financial Instrument Assets

   
     Concentrations  of financial  instrument  assets primarily  consist of cash
deposits and accounts  receivable.  The Company's  policy is to deposit its cash
with  high-quality  financial  institutions.  At December 31, 1996 and 1997, the
Company's cash was deposited in demand and short-term  interest-bearing accounts
with three of the larger banks in Hawaii.

     Advertising Costs

     All advertising and promotion costs are expensed as incurred.

     Investment in Partnership
    

     The Company was a 5 percent general partner in a limited  partnership whose
principal  asset  was  a  commercial  shopping  mall.  The  Company's  principal
stockholder was the other general  partner and held a 45% partnership  interest.
The  Company  used  the  equity  method  to  account  for  its  interest  in the
partnership. At December 31, 1996, the excess of the Company's cumulative equity
in net losses

                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS- (CONTINUED)

   
over its investment is reflected as a noncurrent  liability.  The  partnership's
investment in the mall was sold during 1997. The Company's  proceeds resulted in
a gain on the sale of $677,000.  The  partnership  is expected to be  liquidated
with no anticipated loss to the Company.

     Use of Estimates

     The  preparation  of financial  statements  in  conformity  with  generally
accepted  accounting  principles  requires  management  to  make  estimates  and
assumptions  that  affect the  reported  amounts of assets and  liabilities  and
disclosure of  contingent  assets and  liabilities  at the date of the financial
statements  and the  reported  amounts  of  revenues  and  expenses  during  the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     Concentration of Risk
    

     The Company's operations are exclusively located in the state of Hawaii and
are subject to negative events that affect travel patterns of visitors.

3. ADVANCES TO AFFILIATES:

   
     Advances to  affiliates  represent  advances  to  companies  controlled  by
Aston's principal  stockholder.  The advances have no scheduled  repayment,  and
Aston  suspended  the  accrual  of  interest.  In  1996,  one  affiliate  made a
$2,000,000 repayment,  $112,500 of which was recognized as previously unrecorded
interest.  The remaining  receivable balance was guaranteed by Aston's principal
stockholder and was repaid during 1998.
    

4.   ADVANCES TO STOCKHOLDER:

   
     Advances  to  stockholder   relate  to  advances  to  the  Aston  principal
stockholder.   Such  advances  have  largely  been  utilized   relative  to  the
stockholder's  investment in two hotels managed by the Company. The advances are
not collateralized,  are  noninterest-bearing  and have no scheduled repayments.
The  stockholder  made payments of  approximately  $1,500,000 on these  advances
prior to the  Combination.  An interest  bearing note totalling $4.0 million was
executed in connection  with the Combination  and is  collateralized  by certain
assets  pledged  to  the  Company  and  a  personal  guarantee  (not  to  exceed
$1,000,000).
    

5.   DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS:

   
     The  Company  has  decided  that it will no longer  continue  or enter into
leasing  arrangements for lodging  facilities and will assign such leases to AST
Holdings,  Inc., a corportion  owned by the principal  stockholder.  The Company
will enter into management agreements on such properties with AST Holdings, Inc.
The Company has a plan in place to dispose of its other existing leased property
during the second quarter of 1998. This plan will eliminate the Company's future
obligation  to make lease  payments to owners of these  facilities.  The Company
plans to primarily focus its efforts on renting and managing condominiums, hotel
rooms and homes for the  owners on a fee  basis.  Accordingly,  for all  periods
presented in the  accompanying  financial  statements,  the financial  position,
results  of  operations  and cash flows of the leased  assets are  reflected  as
discontinued  operations.  Summarized financial  information of the discontinued
operations is presented in the following tables.

(1)  In addition to the stated interest on two of the notes described above, the
     Company is  required to pay  additional  interest on each note equal to the
     lesser of 10 percent of distributable  income (as defined in the agreement)
     of one of the leased hotels or $50. Such  additional  interest  amounted to
     $92 and $100 for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1997, respectively.

(2)  No contingent interest was accrued in 1996 or 1997.

     On May 26, 1998,  ResortQuest  entered into a credit agreement (the "Credit
Agreement")   with   NationsBank,   N.A.  and  First   Tennessee  Bank  National
Association,  with respect to a $30 million revolving line of credit. The Credit
Facility  may be  used  for  letters  of  credit  not to  exceed  $2.5  million,
acquisitions,  capital  expenditures,  and for general corporate  purposes.  The
Credit  Agreement  requires the Company to comply with various loan  convenants,
which  include   maintenance  of  certain  financial  ratios,   restrictions  on
additional indebtedness and restrictions on liens, guarantees, advances, capital
expenditures, sale of assets and dividends.

     Interest on outstanding  balances of the Credit Facility is computed at the
Company's election, on the basis of either the Prime Rate or the Eurodollar Rate
plus a margin  ranging  from  1.25% to 2.00%,  depending  on  certain  financial
ratios.  Availability  fees ranging from 0.25% to 0.50% per annum,  depending on
certain  financial  ratios,  are  payable  on the  unused  portion of the Credit
Facility.  The  Credit  Facility  has  a  three-year  term  and  is  secured  by
substantially all of the assets of ResortQuest and its  subsidiaries,  including
the common stock of the Founding Companies and any future material subsidiaries,
as defined. At June 30, 1998, there were no borrowings under the Credit Facility
and ResortQuest was in compliance with applicable loan covenants.

     In  connection  with the  Combinations,  ResortQuest  agreed to assume $5.7
million of existing debt of the Founding Companies.  As of June 30, 1998, all of
this debt was paid off. In addition,  the Founding  Companies  collectively  had
$1.8  million  available to borrow under nine  separate  lines of credit,  which
included personal guarantees of the Founding Companies owners. ResortQuest is in
the process of  terminating  these  lines of credit and  removing  the  personal
guarantees of the Founding  Companies  previous owners.  At June 30, 1998, there
were no borrowings outstanding under any of the remaining lines of credit.

9. LEASES:

     Operating Leases
    

     The Company leases its principal  offices under an operating lease with the
initial term expiring on July 31, 2002, and with two five-year options to extend
the  agreement.  The lease  provides for an initial period of free rent and also
specifies scheduled rent increases over the lease term.

     Effective  February  1, 1996,  the  Company  entered  into a  noncancelable
operating  lease for a hotel  property  on Maui  with  terms  extending  through
January 31, 1999. The lease  provides for scheduled  rent and security  deposits
that  increase  over the term. In  conjunction  with this lease,  the Company is
obligated to pay an annual  retainer fee and a business  referral and  marketing
fee to an unrelated party who arranged the lease. The retainer fee is payable in
quarterly  installments.  Under the terms of the business referral and marketing
agreement,  the  Company is  required  to pay a  percentage  of the net  profits
derived from the hotel property.  The Company accrued  $239,000 and $196,000 for
these fees for the periods ended December 31, 1996 and 1997, respectively.  This
lease is included in the discontinued operations.

     Both the Maui hotel  property lease and the office lease  aggregate  rental
payments  over the life of the lease are being  recognized  as rent expense on a
straight-line basis over the terms of the leases. Accruals representing prorated
future payments under the leases are included in other long-term  obligations as
of December 31, 1996 and 1997.

   
     The Company is obligated under a noncancelable operating lease for a resort
facility on Maui with terms extending  through December 31, 2000. Under terms of
the lease, the Company pays annual rent equivalent to the net operating profits,
as  defined,  of the  facility  up to a defined  amount  per  year.  No rent was
incurred in 1995 or 1996. In 1997, rent of $231,000 was incurred.  This lease is
included in discontinued operations.

                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS- (CONTINUED)

     In addition to operating leases for office space and hotel properties,  the
Company has entered into certain  noncancelable  operating  leases for equipment
and  operating  space and for  individual  condominium  units within its managed
properties.  The terms of these  condominium  leases  usually  coincide with the
management  agreements  under which the Company  manages rental pools within the
respective condominium projects. Under the terms of the front desk and operating
space leases,  the Company pays the respective  apartment  owners  association a
percentage of the room revenue  generated from the rental pool.  Under the terms
of the  condominium  leases,  the Company pays individual  condominium  owners a
fixed monthly  lease rent and, in return,  is allowed to place the unit into the
respective rental pool.

     At  December  31,  1997,   future  minimum  lease   commitments  under  all
noncancelable operating leases are as follows (in thousands):

     Under terms of the leases,  the  Company is  generally  required to pay all
taxes, insurance and maintenance.  Rent expense for the years ended December 31,
1995,  1996  and  1997,  aggregated  approximately  $2,300,000,  $4,750,000  and
$5,300,000, respectively.

     Capital Leases
    

     Capital leases consist  principally  of leases for office  furnishings  and
equipment and for automotive equipment. Future minimum lease payments for assets
under capital leases at December 31, 1997, are as follows (in thousands):

     The capitalized cost of leased equipment totaled  $1,975,000 and $2,610,000
at  December  31,  1996  and  1997,   respectively.   The  related   accumulated
depreciation  totaled  $604,000  and  $921,000  at  December  31, 1996 and 1997,
respectively.

     As an  accommodation  to certain of the  managed  properties,  the  Company
assists in obtaining  leases of operating  equipment.  In some  instances,  this
assistance  includes  entering  into the  leases as the  technical  lessee.  The
managed  properties  perform all  obligations  under the leases,  including  the
making of lease  payments and the provision of insurance  coverage.  The Company
remains  contingently  liable  under the leases  until  completion  of the lease
terms.  Because the Company  undertakes the role of a technical lessee simply as
an accommodation  to the managed  properties and because the leased equipment is
used only for and by the managed properties, these leases have not been recorded
on the Company's books.

                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS- (CONTINUED)

   
     Effective February 1, 1998, the Company's management agreement with a hotel
in Waikiki  was  terminated  due to the sale of the  property.  Management  fees
earned on this property were approximately  $330,000 during 1997. On February 1,
1998,  the Company  entered into a new  management  contract  with a condominium
hotel property in downtown Honolulu.

     On February 28,  1998,  the  Company's  lease  arrangement  with a hotel in
Waikiki  was  terminated  due to the sale of the  property.  The hotel had gross
revenues of approximately  $5,347,000 and net income of  approximately  $371,000
during  1997.  On March 6,  1998,  the  Company  entered  into a new  management
contract with a condominium hotel on Maui.

10.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

     Guarantees

     The Company's  principal  stockholder has personally  guaranteed certain of
the Company's debt and capital lease  obligations.  As of December 31, 1997, the
guaranteed  obligations totaled $2,789,000.

     The Company has provided  guarantees  for, or is the cosigner on,  personal
and business  debts of its principal  stockholder.  At December 31, 1997,  these
personal debts totaled  $17,374,000.  The former principal  stockholder of Aston
has agreed to cause these guarantees to be released as soon as practical.  As of
June 30, 1998, only $860,000 (unaudited) of these loans remain outstanding.
    

     The Company's management  agreements are obtained through negotiations with
the  respective  owners and are  impacted by the normal  market  pressures  of a
highly  competitive  industry.  Contract  clauses as to the management  fees and
reimbursements received by the Company vary greatly.

   
     Certain of the  Company's  management  agreements  contain  provisions  for
guaranteed  levels of returns to owners.  These  agreements  also contain  force
majeure  clauses to protect the Company  from forces or  occurrences  beyond the
control of management.  During 1995, 1996 and 1997, the Company made payments in
excess of the management fees earned on these guaranteed agreements of $620,000,
$643,000 and $793,000, respectively.

     Acquisition Indemnification

     Subject to  certain  limitations,  pursuant  to the  Agreement  and Plan of
Organization  entered  into by and between each of the  Founding  Companies  and
ResortQuest  (each an "Agreement"),  the stockholders of the Founding  Companies
have indemnified  ResortQuest against losses, claims,  damages,  actions, suits,
proceedings demands, assessments, adjustments, costs and expenses as a result of
or arising  from (i) any breach of the  representations  and  warranties  in the
Agreement and its schedules and certificates by the stockholders of the Founding
Companies,  (ii) any breach of any agreement on the part of the stockholders set
forth in the Agreement,  (iii) any liability under the 1993 Act, the 1934 Act or
other federal or state law or regulation arising out of or based upon any untrue
statement of a material  fact  relating  solely to the  Founding  Company or the
stockholders  and  (iv)  certain  other  identified  claims  or  litigation.  In
addition,  pursuant  to each  Agreement  and  subject  to  certain  limitations,
ResortQuest  agreed  to  indemnify  the  stockholders  against  losses,  claims,
damages, actions, suits, proceedings,  demands, assessments,  adjustments, costs
and expenses incurred by the stockholders as a result of or arising from (i) any
breach by ResortQuest or of its  representations and warranties in the Agreement
and its schedules and certificates, (ii) any breach of any agreement on the part
of ResortQuest under this Agreement, (iii) any liability under the 1933 Act, the
1934  Act or  other  federal  or  state  law or  regulation,  at  common  law or
otherwise, arising out

of or based upon any untrue  statement or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact relating to ResortQuest or any of the other Founding Companies contained in
certain filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission,  or (v) the matters
described in the schedules to the Agreement relating to guarantees.

     ResortQuest  is not aware of any events  that have or could have caused any
party to such  indemnification  under any of the  Agreements  during the periods
presented in the accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements.

     Litigation

     The Company is involved in various  legal  actions  arising in the ordinary
course of business.  Management  does not believe that the outcome of such legal
actions will have a material adverse effect on the Company's  financial position
or results of operations.

     Insurance

     The Company carries a broad range of insurance coverage,  including general
and business auto liability,  commercial property,  workers'  compensation and a
general  umbrella  policy.  The Company has not incurred  significant  claims or
losses on any of its  insurance  policies  during the periods  presented  in the
accompanying financial statements.

     Benefit Plans
    

     The Company has a 401(k)  profit-sharing plan for its employees and for the
employees of certain of its managed  resort rental and hotel  properties.  Under
the terms of the plan, any nonunion  employee with one year of service and 1,000
credited hours of service is eligible to participate. Managed property employees
may participate as approved by the owners of the individual managed  properties.
Employees of managed properties are considered employees of the Company only for
purposes of participation in the 401(k) plan.

     Participating  employees  may  defer up to 15  percent  of  their  eligible
compensation.  During  1997,  the  employer,  either the  Company or the managed
property,  provided a matching  contribution  ranging  from 37.5 percent to 50.0
percent of the employee's contribution up to the first 6 percent of the eligible
compensation.  During  1996,  the  employer,  either the  Company or the managed
property, provided a matching contribution ranging from 25 percent to 50 percent
of  the  employee's   contribution  up  to  the  first  6  percent  of  eligible
compensation. In 1995, the employer, either the Company or the managed property,
provided a matching contribution of 25 percent of the employee's contribution up
to 5 percent of the eligible  compensation.  Company contributions to the 401(k)
plan were $53,000, $107,000 and $184,000 in 1995, 1996 and 1997, respectively.

     The Company has applied for qualification of a second 401(k) profit-sharing
plan for employees at one of the leased hotels with the same  qualifications  as
the first plan.

11.  RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS:

     Beginning  in 1997,  the Company  provides  administrative  services to AST
International LLC, an affiliate.  The Company recorded a receivable for $420,000
related to these services in 1997.

     The  Company  manages  two  hotels  owned  by  its  principal  stockholder.
Centralized services (cooperative sales and marketing, reservations,  accounting
services  and other  reimbursements)  and  management  fees charged to these two
hotels approximated  $501,000 and $506,000 in 1996 and 1997,  respectively.  The
Company  leases  certain office space and parking spaces in one of these hotels.
Rent expense approximated $14,000 in 1996 and 1997 for these spaces.

To Abbott Realty Services, Inc.:

   
     We have  audited  the  accompanying  consolidated  balance  sheet of Abbott
Realty Services, Inc. (a Florida corporation) and Subsidiaries (collectively the
"Company")  as of July 31,  1998,  and the related  consolidated  statements  of
operations,  changes  in  stockholders'  equity and cash flows for the year then
ended.  These  consolidated  financial  statements are the responsibility of the
Company's  management.  Our  responsibility  is to  express  an opinion on these
consolidated financial statements 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 financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  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.

     In our opinion,  the consolidated  financial  statements  referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of
Abbott Realty  Services,  Inc. and  Subsidiaries,  as of July 31, 1998,  and the
results of their  operations  and their cash flows for the year then  ended,  in

                   CONSOLIDATED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
    

                                 JULY 31, 1998

1.   BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION:

     Abbott  Realty  Services, Inc. is a Florida corporation comprised of Abbott
Resorts,  Inc.  and an 80% ownership in Abbott and Andrews Realty, Inc. ("Abbott
and  Andrews"),  which owns Tops'l Club of NW Florida, Inc., Tops'l Group, Inc.,
and  SIIK,  Inc.  (collectively  the  "Company"  or "Abbott"). The Company's two
principal  operations  include  providing property management services to owners
of  vacation  properties and providing real estate services for sales of new and
previously  owned  vacation  properties  in  the  Destin,  Fort Walton and South
Walton areas of Florida.

   
     The Company  provides  management  services to property  owners pursuant to
management  contracts,  which are generally  one-year in length. The majority of
such contracts  allow property  owners to terminate the contract at any time. At
July 31, 1998, the Company had approximately 2,400 rental homes and condominiums
under  management.  Abbott's  operations  are  seasonal,  with primary  customer
concentration during May through August of each year.

     In conjunction with providing  property  management  services,  the Company
realizes  certain   revenues   related  to  food  and  beverage,   housekeeping,
maintenance,  laundry,  etc.  Revenues  realized related to these activities are
classified as service fees and other in the accompanying  consolidated statement
of income.

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
    

     Basis of Accounting and Principles of Consolidation

     The  accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements  are prepared on the
accrual  basis of  accounting  and include  the  accounts of the Company and its
majority-owned   subsidiaries.   All  significant   intercompany   accounts  and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

     Cash and Cash Equivalents

   
     For  purpose  of  the  statement  of  cash flows, the Company considers all
investments  with  original  maturities  of  three  months  or  less  to be cash
equivalents.
    

     Cash Held in Escrow

     Cash held in escrow  represents  customer  deposits  related to real estate
sales that have been placed in escrow accounts until such sales are finalized.

     Other Current Assets

     Other current  assets  consist of prepaid  advertising,  prepaid  insurance
premiums and inventories.

     Advertising  and  insurance  costs are  expensed  ratably over the expected
benefit  period.  At July 31, 1998, the Company  maintained a prepaid balance of
approximately $718,000 related to these items.

   
     Inventories are carried at weighted  average cost and consist  primarily of
linens, food and beverage. At July 31, 1998, the Company maintained an inventory
balance of approximately $180,000 related to these items.

            CONSOLIDATED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)

 Other Assets

     Other  assets   primarily   consist  of  a  note   receivable  and  certain
investments.

     On June 1, 1995, in conjunction with purchasing  certain  property,  Abbott
agreed  to  accept a note  receivable  for a portion  of the  property  that was
previously  sold. The note  receivable  represents a 50-month note for $700,000,
which  bears  interest  at 8.7%  per  annum.  Principal  and  interest  payments
approximating   $7,000  are  due  monthly  with  a  final  balloon   payment  of
approximately  $593,000  due on  August  1,  1999.  At July 31,  1998,  the note
receivable approximated $664,000.

     The  Company  maintains  a common  stock  investment  in a local  financial
institution.  The Company accounts for this stock using the cost method, and the
investment balance approximated $90,000 at July 31, 1998. Subsequent to July 31,
1998,  the Company  recorded  shareholder  receivables  for this  balance as the
common stock was transferred to Abbott stockholders.

   
     The  Company  has  an  ultimate  10%  limited  partnership  interest  in  a
condominium  development located in Destin,  Florida.  Due to the nature of this
investment,  the Company accounts for this investment under the cost method.  At
July 31, 1998, the investment balance approximated $600,000.
    

     Minority Interest

     As  the  Company  owns  80%  of  Abbott  and  Andrews,   the   accompanying
consolidated  financial  statements  reflect  minority  interest  for 20% of the
current year net income of Abbott and Andrews and a minority interest payable to
shareholder for 20% of the retained earnings of Abbott and Andrews.

     Revenue Recognition

     The  Company  records   property  rental  fees  on  the  accrual  basis  of
accounting,  ratably  over the term of  guest  stays,  as  earned.  The  Company
requires a minimum deposit of $50 when the reservation is booked. These deposits
are  non-refundable  and are  recorded  as a  component  of  customer  deposits,
deferred revenue and payable to property owner in the accompanying  consolidated
balance sheet. The Company records revenue for cancellations upon occurrence.

     Service fees are recorded for a variety of services and are  recognized  as
the service is provided.

     Commissions on real estate sales are recognized at closing and are recorded
net of the related  commission  expense to agents.  The Company recognized gross
commission  revenues of  approximately  $10,077,000  and commission  expenses of
approximately $6,593,000 for the year ended July 31, 1998.

     Operating Expenses

     Operating  expenses include travel agent commissions,  salaries,  marketing
expense and other costs  associated  with  property  management  and real estate
sales.

   
     Property and Equipment

     Property and equipment  are stated at cost,  and  depreciation  is computed
using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

     Expenditures  for  repairs  and  maintenance  are  charged to expense  when
incurred.  Expenditures  for major  renewals and  betterments,  which extend the
useful  lives of existing  equipment,  are  capitalized  and  depreciated.  Upon
retirement  or  disposition  of  property  and  equipment,  the cost and related
accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or
loss is recognized in the  statement of  operations.  The gross amount of assets
recorded  under capital  leases totaled  $692,649 and  accumulated  amortization
related to those assets totaled $352,382.

            CONSOLIDATED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)

   
     Income Taxes

     The company  accounts for income taxes under the provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS No.
109").  Under SFAS No. 109, the current  provision  for income taxes  represents
actual or estimated  amounts payable or refundable on tax returns filed or to be
filed for each year.  Deferred tax assets and  liabilities  are recorded for the
estimated future tax effects of: (a) temporary differences between the tax bases
of assets and  liabilities  and  amounts  reported in the  consolidated  balance
sheets, and (b) operating loss and tax credit carryforwards.  The overall change
in deferred tax assets and  liabilities for the period measures the deferred tax
expense for the period.  Effects of changes in enacted tax laws on deferred  tax
assets and liabilities are reflected as adjustments to tax expense in the period
of  enactment.  The  measurement  of  deferred  tax  assets  may be reduced by a
valuation  allowance  based on judgemental  assessment of available  evidence if
deemed more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not
be realized.
    

     Use of Estimates

   
     The  preparation  of financial  statements  in  accordance  with  generally
accepted  accounting  principles  requires  management  to  make  estimates  and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets,  liabilities,  revenues,
and expenses and the  disclosure of  contingent  assets and  liabilities.  While
management  endeavors to make accurate  estimates,  actual  results could differ
from these estimates.

     Concentration of Risk

     The Company's  operations are  exclusively  in the Destin,  Fort Walton and
South Walton, Florida area and are subject to significant changes due to weather
conditions.

                    BRINDLEY & BRINDLEY
                    NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION:

     Brindley & Brindley Realty and Development, Inc. and B&B On The Beach, Inc.
(collectively  "Brindley  &  Brindley"  or the  "Company")  both North  Carolina
companies, are leading providers of beach vacation property rentals,  management
services and sales in the Outer Banks of North  Carolina.  Brindley and Brindley
manages  approximately  450 rental homes.  The Company  provides its  management
services  to  property  owners  pursuant  to  management  contracts,  which  are
generally  one year in length.  The majority of such  contracts  allow  property
owners to terminate the contract at any time.  Brindley & Brindley's  operations
are seasonal, with peaks during the second and third quarters of the year.

   

     On May 26, 1998 ResortQuest International, Inc. ("ResortQuest") consummated
its initial  public  offering and acquired all of the  outstanding  stock of the
Company  in  exchange  for cash and  shares of  ResortQuest  common  stock  (the
"Combination").

     In  connection  with the  Combination,  the owner and certain key employees
have  agreed to  reductions  in salary and  benefits  which  would have  reduced
general  and  administrative  expenses  by  approximately  $69,000  in 1997.  In
addition,  certain  stockholders  retained  non-operating  assets and assumed or
retired certain  liabilities  that were excluded from the  Combinations  and the
purchase  price  for  the  Company  was  adjusted  by  certain  working  capital
adjustments. 
    

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

     Interim Financial Statements

   
     The interim  financial  statements at May 26, 1998, and for the period from
January  1  through  May 26,  1998  and six  months  ended  June 30,  1997,  are
unaudited,  and certain information and footnote disclosures,  normally included
in  financial   statements   prepared  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted
accounting  principles,  have been omitted.  In the opinion of  management,  all
adjustments,  consisting  only of normal  recurring  adjustments,  necessary  to
fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows with
respect to the interim financial statements,  have been included. The results of
operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results
for the entire fiscal year. 
    

     Revenue Recognition

     The  Company  records   property  rental  fees  on  the  accrual  basis  of
accounting,  ratably  over the term of  guest  stays,  as  earned.  The  Company
requires an advance rent equal to 50% of the rental fee at the time reservations
are booked and the remaining 50% of the rental fee 30 days prior to the expected
arrival  date.  These  advance  rents are  non-refundable  and are  recorded  as
customer  deposits and deferred revenue in the accompanying  combined  financial
statements  until the guest stay  commences.  The  Company  records  revenue for
cancellations as they occur.

     Service fees are recorded for a variety of services and are  recognized  as
the service is  provided,  including  housekeeping,  reservations  and  pool/spa
services.

     Commissions on real estate sales are recognized at closing and are recorded
net of  the  related  commission  expense.  The  Company  recognized  commission
revenues of $1,189,000 and commission expense of $788,000 in 1997.

     Operating Expenses

     Operating  expenses include rental agent commissions,  employees  salaries,
marketing and  advertising  expense,  and other costs  associated  with property
sales, rental and management.

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED )

     Cash and Cash Equivalents

     For the purposes of the balance  sheets and  statements of cash flows,  the
Company  considers all investments  with original  maturities of three months or
less to be cash equivalents.

     Property and Equipment

     Property and equipment  are stated at cost,  and  depreciation  is computed
using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

     Expenditures  for  repairs  and  maintenance  are  charged to expense  when
incurred.  Expenditures  for major  renewals and  betterments,  which extend the
useful  lives of existing  equipment,  are  capitalized  and  depreciated.  Upon
retirement  or  disposition  of  property  and  equipment,  the cost and related
accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or
loss is recognized in the combined statements of operations.

     Income Taxes

     The  Company has elected S  Corporation  status as defined by the  Internal
Revenue  Code and state tax  statutes,  whereby  the  Company is not  subject to
taxation  for  federal  or  state  purposes.  Under S  Corporation  status,  the
stockholders  report their shares of the Company's taxable earnings or losses in
their personal tax returns.

     Use of Estimates

     The  preparation  of financial  statements  in  conformity  with  generally
accepted accounting  principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions by
management in determining  the reported  amounts of assets and  liabilities  and
disclosures  of contingent  assets and  liabilities at the date of the financial
statements  and the  reported  amounts  of  revenues  and  expenses  during  the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     Concentration of Risk

     The Company's  operations are  exclusively  in the Corolla,  North Carolina
area and are subject to significant changes due to weather conditions.

4. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

     Litigation

     The Company is involved in various  legal  actions  arising in the ordinary
course of business.  Management  does not believe that the outcome of such legal
actions will have a material adverse effect on the Company's  combined financial
position or combined results of operations.

     Insurance

     The Company carries a broad range of insurance coverage,  including general
and business auto liability,  commercial property,  workers'  compensation and a
general  umbrella  policy.  The Company has not incurred  significant  claims or
losses on any of its  insurance  policies  during  the period  presented  in the
accompanying combined financial statements.

     Benefit Plans

     The Company's 401(k)  retirement plan is available to substantially  all of
the Company's  full-time salaried employees.  The Company's  contribution to the
plan is based upon a percentage of employee contributions. The cost of this plan
to the Company was approximately $14,000 in 1997.

5. RELATED PARTIES:

     During  1997,  the Company  paid  approximately  $104,000 or  approximately
$8,700 per month to one of the owners for rent of the office  building and local
warehouse  pursuant  to two oral  agreements,  each on a  month-to-month  basis.
Brindley & Brindley entered into two written lease agreements with the Brindleys
for these  facilities  that  commenced  on January  1, 1998.  The terms of these
leases expire  December 31, 2002,  with options to extend for two 5-year periods
at the end of the lease periods and provide for aggregate annual rental payments
of approximately $133,500.
   
     During 1997, the Company received real estate sales  commissions of $70,000
from Outer Banks Ventures, Inc., an affiliate.

6.   PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION
     (UNAUDITED)

   
     In conjunction  with the acquisition of Company stock by  ResortQuest,  the
Company  changed from an S Corporation to a C Corporation  for federal and state
income tax reporting  purposes,  which requires the Company to recognize the tax
consequences of operations in its statements of operations. The supplemental pro
forma information included in the accompanying  statements of operations reflect
the  estimated  impact of  recognizing  income tax expense as if the Company had
been a C Corporation  for tax  reporting  purposes for the six months ended June
30, 1997 and the period from  January 1 through May 26,  1998,  and for the year
ended December 31, 1997.

Management,  Inc. (a Delaware  corporation) and Coastal Resorts Realty L.L.C. (a
Delaware limited liability company) (collectively, the "Company") as of December
31, 1996 and 1997, and the related combined statements of operations, changes in
stockholders'  and  members'  equity and cash flows for the period  December 30,
1996  (inception) to December 31, 1996 and for the year ended December 31, 1997.
These  combined  financial  statements are the  responsibility  of the Company's
management.  Our  responsibility  is to express  an  opinion  on these  combined
financial statements based on our audits.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion,  the combined  financial  statements  referred to above  present
fairly, in all material  respects,  the combined  financial  position of Coastal
Resorts  Management,  Inc., and Coastal Resorts Realty L.L.C. as of December 31,
1996 and 1997, and the results of their  combined  operations and cash flows for

                         (COMBINED SUCCESSOR COMPANIES)

                     NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION:

     Coastal Resorts  Management,  Inc.  ("CRM"),  incorporated on September 26,
1996,  and Coastal  Resorts  Realty L.L.C.  ("CRR"),  formed on August 28, 1996,
(collectively the "Companies" or the "Company") are a Delaware corporation and a
Delaware  limited  liability  company,   respectively.   CRM  provides  property
management  services to homeowner  associations as well as other related service
companies.   CRR  provides  property  rental  services  to  owners  of  vacation
properties  and acts as an agent for sales of new and used vacation  properties.
The Company manages  approximately 550 rental units in Bethany Beach,  Delaware.
CRR  and CRM  purchased  their  operations  from  Interstate  Realty  Co.,  Inc.
("Interstate")  and  Sea  Colony  Management,  Inc.  ("SCM"),  respectively,  on
December 30, 1996 (See Note 4). The Company provides its management  services to
property owners pursuant to management contracts, which range in length from one
to five years. The majority of such contracts allow property owners to terminate
the contract only for cause. The Company's  operations are seasonal,  with peaks
during the second and third quarters of the year.
   

     On  May  26,  1998,   ResortQuest   International,   Inc.   ("ResortQuest")
consummated  its initial  public  offering and  acquired all of the  outstanding
stock of the Companies in exchange for shares of  ResortQuest  common stock (the
"Combination").  In addition, the stockholders and members retained goodwill and
other  intangible  assets  that  were  excluded  from the  Combinations  and the
purchase  price  for the  Company  was  adjusted  for  certain  working  capital
adjustments. 
    

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

     Interim Financial Statements

   
     The  interim  financial  statements  at May 26,  1998,  and for the  period
January  1  through  May 26,  1998  and six  months  ended  June 30,  1997,  are
unaudited,  and certain information and footnote disclosures,  normally included
in  financial   statements   prepared  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted
accounting  principles,  have been omitted.  In the opinion of  management,  all
adjustments,  consisting  only of normal  recurring  adjustments,  necessary  to
fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows with
respect to the interim financial statements,  have been included. The results of
operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results
for the entire fiscal year. 
    

     Basis of Combination and Financial Statement Presentation

   
     The  accompanying  financial  statements  of CRM  and CRR  (the  "Successor
Companies")  have been  prepared on a combined  basis as the Companies are under
common  control and are expected to be the subject of a  consolidation  with and
into ResortQuest. 
    

     The   accompanying   financial   statements  of  Interstate  and  SCM  (the
"Predecessor  Companies")  have  been  prepared  on  a  combined  basis  as  the
Predecessor  Companies  were under  common  control  and were the  subject of an
acquisition  by  the  Successor  Companies.  The  financial  statements  of  the
Predecessor  Companies are presented for the purpose of complying with the rules
and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

     The combined  statement of  operations of the Companies for the period from
December 30, 1996  (inception)  to December 31, 1996, has not been presented due
to the nominal level of operations.

     Revenue Recognition

     The  Company  records   property  rental  fees  on  the  accrual  basis  of
accounting,  ratably  over the term of  guest  stays,  as  earned.  The  Company
requires a deposit equal to 33% of the rental fee 10 days after the  reservation
is booked.  These  deposits  are  non-refundable  and are  recorded  as customer
deposits and deferred revenue in the accompanying combined financial statements.
The Company records revenue for cancellations as they occur.

             NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

     Service fees are recorded for a variety of services and are  recognized  as
the service is provided, including processing and inspection fees.

     Commissions on real estate sales are recognized at closing and are recorded
net of  the  related  commission  expense.  The  Company  recognized  commission
revenues of $689,000 and  $2,176,000  for the years 1996 and 1997 and commission
expense of $275,000 and $908,000 for the years 1996 and 1997.

     Operating Expenses

     Operating  expenses include rental agent commissions,  salaries,  marketing
and  advertising  expense,  and other costs  associated  with sales,  rental and
management.

     Cash and Cash Equivalents

     For  purposes  of the balance  sheets and  statements  of cash  flows,  the
Company  considers all cash held and  investments  held with  maturities of less
than 3 months as cash and cash equivalents.

     Property and Equipment

     Property and equipment  are stated at cost,  and  depreciation  is computed
using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

     Expenditures  for  repairs  and  maintenance  are  charged to expense  when
incurred.  Expenditures  for major  renewals and  betterments,  which extend the
useful  lives of existing  equipment,  are  capitalized  and  depreciated.  Upon
retirement  or  disposition  of  property  and  equipment,  the cost and related
accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or
loss is recognized in the statement of operations.

     Income Taxes

     CRM has elected S  Corporation  status as defined by the  Internal  Revenue
Code and state tax statutes,  whereby the Company is not subject to taxation for
federal or state tax purposes.  Under S  Corporation  status,  the  stockholders
report  their share of CRM's  taxable  earnings or losses in their  personal tax
returns.  CRR is a  Limited  Liability  Company  and is taxed as a  Partnership.
Accordingly,  the  Company  is not  subject  to  taxation  for  federal or state
purposes.  The members report their share of CRR's taxable earnings or losses in
their personal tax returns.

     The  Predecessor  Companies  were C  Corporations  and  accounted for their
income taxes under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS No. 109"). Under SFAS No. 109, the
current  provision  for income  taxes  represents  actual or  estimated  amounts
payable  or  refundable  on tax  returns  filed  or to be filed  for each  year.
Deferred  tax assets and  liabilities  are  recorded  for  estimated  future tax
effects  of:  (a)  temporary  differences  between  the tax bases of assets  and
liabilities and amounts  reported in the  consolidated  balance sheets,  and (b)
operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. The overall change in deferred tax
assets and  liabilities for the period measures the deferred tax expense for the
period.  Effects  of  changes in  enacted  tax laws on  deferred  tax assets and
liabilities  are  reflected as  adjustments  to tax expense in the period of the
enactment.  The measurement of deferred tax assets may be reduced by a valuation
allowance  based on judgmental  assessment of available  evidence if deemed more
likely  than  not  that  some or all of the  deferred  tax  assets  will  not be
realized.

     Use of Estimates

     The  preparation  of financial  statements  in  conformity  with  generally
accepted accounting  principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions by
management in determining  the reported  amounts of assets and  liabilities  and
disclosures  of contingent  assets and  liabilities at the date of the financial
statements  and the  reported  amounts  of  revenues  and  expenses  during  the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     Concentration of Risk

     The Companies'  operations are  exclusively in the Bethany Beach,  Delaware
area and are subject to significant changes due to weather conditions.

     In 1997, 26 percent of gross revenues were  attributable  to commissions on
new homes sales which were built by Sea Colony Development Corporation,  Inc., a
related party.

4. PURCHASE:

     On December 30, 1996,  CRR entered into an agreement to purchase the assets
and assume certain  liabilities of Interstate (a related party) for the purchase
price of $759,000.  CRR borrowed $600,000 from a related party entity to finance
the  purchase.  The  fair  value of the net  assets  purchased  totaled  $2,000,
resulting  in the  recognition  of  goodwill  of  $642,000  and a  trademark  of
$115,000. The trademark was sold in 1997 (see Note 6).

     On December 30, 1996,  CRM entered into an agreement to purchase the common
stock of SCM (a related party) for the purchase price of $132,000.  CRM borrowed
$75,000 from a related party entity to finance the  purchase.  The fair value of
the net assets  purchased  totaled  $30,000,  resulting  in the  recognition  of
intangible assets, totaling $102,000.

     The goodwill is being amortized over a period of 40 years.

     The  trademark  was   subsequently   sold  to  another  related  party  for
approximately $115,000 pursuant to an agreement effective December 31, 1997. The
trademark was being amortized over a period of 15 years.

     The  intangible  assets  associated  with  the  purchase  of SCM are  being
amortized over a period of 10 years.

5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

     Litigation

     The Companies are involved in various legal actions arising in the ordinary
course of business.  Management  does not believe that the outcome of such legal
actions will have a material adverse effect on the Companies' combined financial
position or results of operations.

     Insurance

     Through policies secured by a related party, the Companies are covered by a
broad  range  of  insurance  policies,   including  general  and  business  auto
liability,  commercial property,  workers'  compensation and a general umbrella.

8.   PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION (UNAUDITED):

   
     In  conjunction  with the acquisiton of the Companies by  ResortQuest,  the
Companies  changed from an S Corporation and a limited  liability company to a C
Corporation for federal and state income tax reporting purposes,  which requires
the Companies to recognize the tax  consequences of operations in its statements
of  operations.   The  supplemental  pro  forma  information   included  in  the
accompanying   statements  of  operations   reflect  the  estimated   impact  of
recognizing  income tax expense as if the Companies had been a C Corporation for
tax  reporting  purposes  for the six months ended June 30 , 1997 and the period
January 1 through May 26, 1998, and for the year ended December 31, 1997.

                    COLLECTION OF FINE PROPERTIES, INC.
                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION:

   
     Collection of Fine  Properties,  Inc. and its  subsidiary  Peak Ski Rental,
Ltd.  ("Subsidiary,"  collectively  the  "Company"),  a Colorado  S-Corporation,
provides vacation  property rental and management  services for properties owned
by third parties and located in the Breckenridge,  Colorado area. The properties
are primarily  condominium  rental units which are owned by third  parties.  The
Company  manages  approximately  470 rental units.  The Company's  subsidiary is
engaged in the rental of ski equipment.

     On January 1, 1995, Tyra Management, Inc., Colorado Mountain Lodging, Inc.,
and River Mountain Lodge, Inc. formed a business combination  accounted for as a
pooling of interests.  All of the assets and liabilities of those companies were
transferred  to  Collection of Fine  Properties,  Inc. The  stockholders  of the
combined  companies received 10,000 shares of common stock of Collection of Fine
Properties, Inc. in exchange for their stock in Tyra Management,  Inc., Colorado
Mountain Lodging,  Inc. and River Mountain Lodge, Inc. All existing basis in the
assets and liabilities of the combined companies was transferred to the Company.

     As a result of this combination, the Company acquired 100% ownership of the
Subsidiary,  which prior to the combination,  was owned one-third by each of the
combining companies.

     On  May  26,  1998,   ResortQuest   International,   Inc.   ("ResortQuest")
consummated  its initial  public  offering and  acquired all of the  outstanding
stock of the Company in exchange for cash and shares of ResortQuest common stock
(the "Combination").  In connection with the combination, an owner has agreed to
reductions  in  salary  and  benefits  which  would  have  reduced  general  and
administrative expenses by approximately $64,000,  $74,000 and $94,000 for 1995,
1996,  and  1997,  respectively.  In  addition,  certain  stockholders  retained
non-operating assets and assumed certain liabilities that were excluded from the
Combination  and the  purchase  price for the  Company  was  adjusted by certain
working capital adjustments.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

     Interim Financial Statements

     The  interim  financial  statements  at May 26,  1998,  and for the  period
January  1  through  May 26,  1998  and six  months  ended  June 30,  1997,  are
unaudited,  and certain information and footnote disclosures,  normally included
in  financial   statements   prepared  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted
accounting  principles,  have been omitted.  In the opinion of  management,  all
adjustments,  consisting  only of normal  recurring  adjustments,  necessary  to
fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows with
respect to the interim financial statements,  have been included. The results of
operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results
for the entire fiscal year.

     Principles of consolidation

     The  consolidated  financial  statements include the accounts of Collection
of  Fine Properties, Inc. and Peak Ski Rental, Ltd. All significant intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

     Revenue recognition

     The Company  records  property  rental and  management  fees on the accrual
basis of  accounting  ratably over the term of guest stays,  as earned.  Certain
other linen and maintenance fees are charged periodically.  The Company provides
all marketing, management, housekeeping and minor maintenance.
    

     The Company requires a  non-refundable  deposit equal to 100% of the rental
amount 60 days prior to the actual stay,  recorded as Customer  Deposits  within
the  accompanying  consolidated  balance sheets.  Revenue from  cancellations is
recognized when received.

           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)

     Operating expenses

     Operating   expenses   include   travel   agent   commissions,    salaries,
communications,  advertising,  credit card fees and other costs  associated with
managing properties.

     Cash and cash equivalents

     The Company considers all short-term investments purchased with an original
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

     Marketable securities

     Marketable securities consist of corporate bonds and are classified as held
to maturity. The fair market value of the securities approximates the cost.

     Held to  maturity  securities  are  securities  which the  Company  has the
positive  intent and  ability  to hold to  maturity.  Amounts  are  reported  at
amortized  cost,  adjusted for the  amortization  of premiums  and  accretion of
discounts.

     Inventories

     Inventories consist of ski lift tickets,  merchandise,  uniforms,  supplies
and parts used for the repair and service of the owners' units.  Inventories are
stated at cost, determined on a first-in,  first-out (FIFO) method.  Inventories
are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the balance sheets.

     Land held for development

     Land  held for  development  consists  of raw  land  purchased  for  future
development.  Cost  includes  original  acquisition  costs  and  costs  incurred
specific to the property. During 1996, this property was sold to a related party
at cost.

     Property and equipment

     Property and equipment are recorded at cost.

     Expenditures  for  repairs  and  maintenance  are  charged to expense  when
incurred.  Expenditures  for major  renewals and  betterments,  which extend the
useful  lives of existing  equipment,  are  capitalized  and  depreciated.  Upon
retirement  or  disposition  of  property  and  equipment,  the cost and related
accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or
loss is recognized in the statements of operations.

     Income taxes

     The Company has  S-Corporation  status as defined by the  Internal  Revenue
Code. Under  S-Corporation  status, the stockholders  report their shares of the
Company's taxable earnings or losses in their personal tax returns.

     Management estimates

     The  preparation  of financial  statements  in  conformity  with  generally
accepted  accounting  principles  requires  management  to  make  estimates  and
assumptions  that  affect the  reported  amounts of assets and  liabilities  and
disclosures of contingent  assets and  liabilities at December 31, 1997 and 1996
and revenues and expenses  during the three years ended December 31, 1997,  1996
and 1995. The actual outcome of these  estimates could differ from the estimates
made in the preparation of the financial statements.

     Concentration of credit risk

     At December 31, 1997 and 1996, the Company had cash deposits in a financial
institution of approximately $2,341,000 and $2,085,000,  respectively, in excess
of the federal insured limit of $100,000.

     The Company is economically dependent upon the tourism trade and changes in
weather  conditions in the  Breckenridge,  Colorado  area.  The  operations  are
seasonal, with peaks during the first and fourth quarters of the year.

     Reclassifications

     Certain  items  in  the  1995  and  1996  financial  statements  have  been
reclassified to conform with the 1997 presentation.

     Fair value of financial instruments

     Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards No. 107,  "Disclosures  about
Fair Value of Financial  Instruments,"  requires  disclosure  regarding the fair
value of financial instruments for which it is practical to estimate that value.
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, approximates the fair value due
to the short-term nature of these  instruments.  The fair value of the Company's
long-term  debt is estimated to  approximate  carrying  value as the pricing and
terms are indicative of current rates and credit risk.

8.  BENEFIT PLAN:

     The Company instituted a 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan during September, 1996.
Employer  contributions  to the plan  during  1997 and 1996  were  approximately
$20,000 and $6,000, respectively.

9.  SUBSEQUENT EVENT:

     During January, 1998, the Company distributed $300,000 to its stockholders.

10. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION
    (UNAUDITED)

   
     In conjunction  with the acquisition of company stock by  ResortQuest,  the
Company  changed from an S Corporation to a C Corporation  for federal and state
income tax reporting  purposes,  which requires the Company to recognize the tax
consequences of operations in its statements of operations. The supplemental pro
forma information included in the accompanying  statements of operations reflect
the  estimated  impact of  recognizing  income tax expense as if the Company had
been a C Corporation  for tax  reporting  purposes for the six months ended June
30, 1997 and the period  January 1 through May 26, 1998,  and for the year ended
December 31, 1997.

To First Resort Software, Inc.:

     We have audited the  accompanying  balance sheet of First Resort  Software,

                           FIRST RESORT SOFTWARE, INC.
                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION:

     First Resort Software, Inc. (the "Company") is a Colorado corporation.  The
Company was founded and began operations in 1985. The Company develops,  markets
and distributes property management computer software  applications and provides
its licensees with implementation  services and ongoing support. The Company has
a client base of over 650 companies located in the United States, Canada and the
Caribbean.

   
     On  May  26,  1998,   ResortQuest   International,   Inc.   ("ResortQuest")
consummated  its initial  public  offering and  acquired all of the  outstanding
stock of the Company in exchange for cash and shares of ResortQuest common stock
(the  "Combination").  In connection with the Combination the stockholders  have
agreed to increases in salary and benefits  which would have  increased  general
and   administrative   expenses  by  $42,000  in  1997.  In  addition,   certain
stockholders  retained  non-operating  assets and  assumed  or  retired  certain
liabilities  that were excluded from the  Combination and the purchase price for
the Company was adjusted for certain working capital adjustments.
    

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

     Interim Financial Statements

   
     The  interim  financial  statements  at May 26,  1998,  and for the  period
January  1  through  May 26,  1998  and six  months  ended  June 30,  1998,  are
unaudited,  and certain information and footnote disclosures,  normally included
in  financial   statements   prepared  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted
accounting  principles,  have been omitted.  In the opinion of  management,  all
adjustments,  consisting  only of normal  recurring  adjustments,  necessary  to
fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows with
respect to the interim financial statements,  have been included. The results of
operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results
for the entire fiscal year. 
    

     Revenue Recognition

     The  Company  records  revenue  from  software  sales when the  software is
successfully installed on the client's system.

     The Company's revenue recognition policies conform to accounting principles
for software revenue  recognition  issued by the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants  ("AICPA").  For customer  arrangements that include multiple
elements (i.e., additional software products,  postcontract customer support, or
services)  the  contract  price is generally  allocated to the various  elements
based on Company--specific objective evidence of fair values. Revenue related to
software maintenance  agreements,  which are generally one year in duration,  is
generally  billed  in  advance  and  recognized  ratably  over  the  term of the
maintenance  contract.  Customer  deposits received and amounts invoiced but not
yet recognized as revenue are reflected as deferred  revenue in the accompanying
balance  sheet.  These  amounts  are  included  in  revenue  when  the  relevant
recognition criteria are met. 

     Revenues  related to  service  elements  are  generally  recognized  as the
services are provided. Should the Company enter into arrangements with customers
that require significant production,  modification or customization of software,
the entire  arrangement  will be  accounted  for using  progress  to  completion
accounting methods prescribed by the AICPA.

     Operating Expenses

     Operating expenses include salaries, benefits,  communications,  marketing,
postage and shipping, and other costs associated with developing,  servicing and
marketing software.

     Cash and Cash Equivalents

     For the purposes of the balance  sheets and  statements of cash flows,  the
Company  considers all investments  with original  maturities of three months or
less to be cash equivalents.

                          FIRST RESORT SOFTWARE, INC.

                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)

     Property and Equipment

     Property and equipment  are stated at cost,  and  depreciation  is computed
using the straight--line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

     Expenditures  for  repairs  and  maintenance  are  charged to expense  when
incurred.  Expenditures  for major  renewals and  betterments,  which extend the
useful  lives of existing  equipment,  are  capitalized  and  depreciated.  Upon
retirement  or  disposition  of  property  and  equipment,  the cost and related
accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or
loss is recognized in the statement of operations.

     Research and Development

     Research and development costs,  except as discussed below, are expensed as
incurred.  These costs consist primarily of salaries relating to the development
of new products and technologies.

     Generally  accepted  accounting  principles  provide that costs incurred to
produce  software  for  external  sale or lease  should  be  capitalized.  Costs
eligible for capitalization are those incurred after the product's technological
feasibility  has been  established  and before the  product is ready for general
release.  The  establishment  of  technological   feasibility  and  the  ongoing
assessment of the  recoverability  of capitalized  costs  requires  considerable
judgment by management with respect to certain external factors,  including, but
not limited to, anticipated future product revenues, estimated economic life and
changes in software and hardware technology.  The Company incurred costs through
December 31, 1997 which satisfy the above criteria of approximately $149,000 and
therefore these software development costs have been capitalized by the Company.

     Income Taxes

     The  Company has elected S  Corporation  status as defined by the  Internal
Revenue  Code,  whereby  the  Company  is  not  subject  to  taxation.  Under  S
Corporation status, the stockholders report their share of the Company's taxable
earnings or losses in their personal tax returns.

     Use of Estimates

     The  preparation  of financial  statements  in  conformity  with  generally
accepted accounting  principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions by
management in determining  the reported  amounts of assets and  liabilities  and
disclosures  of contingent  assets and  liabilities at the date of the financial
statements  and the  reported  amounts  of  revenues  and  expenses  during  the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

3. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT:

     Property and equipment consisted of the following (in thousands):

                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)

4. LINE OF CREDIT:

     The Company  has a loan  agreement  with a bank  providing a line of credit
("LOC") credit  facility of $150,000,  which is subject to renewal and review on
an annual  basis.  The LOC bears  interest at prime plus 1.75% and matures March
25, 1998. The LOC has subsequently  been renewed with interest at prime plus 1%,
maturing in March 1999. At December 31, 1997,  there was no outstanding  balance
on this LOC.

     The owners of the Company have  guaranteed the  obligations and liabilities
of the Company in  connection  with the LOC  pursuant to a  continuing  guaranty
dated March 25, 1994.

5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

     Litigation

     The Company is involved in certain legal actions  arising from the ordinary
course of business.  Management  does not believe that the outcome of such legal
actions will have a material adverse effect on the Company's  financial position
or results of operations.

     Insurance

     The  Company  carries  a  broad  range  of  insurance  coverage,   workers'
compensation  and a business  liability,  business  personal  property,  loss of
business income, employee dishonesty and medical payment policy. The Company has
not  incurred  significant  claims or losses  on any of its  insurance  policies
during the period presented in the accompanying financial statements.

     Benefit Plans

     The Company's 401(k)  retirement plan is available to substantially  all of
the Company's employees.  The Company's contribution to the plan is based upon a
percentage of employee  contributions,  as defined by the plan. The cost of this
plan was approximately $18,000 in 1997.

6.   PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION (UNAUDITED):

   
     In  conjunction  with the  acquisition of the Company by  ResortQuest,  the
Company  changed from an S Corporation to a C Corporation  for federal and state
income tax reporting  purposes,  which requires the Company to recognize the tax
consequences of operations in its statements of operations. The supplemental pro
forma information included in the accompanying  statements of operations reflect
the  estimated  impact of  recognizing  income tax expense as if the Company had
been a C Corporation  for tax  reporting  purposes for the six months ended June
30, 1997 and the period  January 1, through May 26, 1998, and for the year ended
December 31, 1997.

                   REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To Houston and O'Leary Company:

     We have  audited  the  accompanying  balance  sheet of Houston  and O'Leary
Company (a  Colorado  corporation)  as of  December  31,  1997,  and the related
statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for the
year then  ended.  These  financial  statements  are the  responsibility  of the
Company's  management.  Our  responsibility  is to  express  an opinion on these
financial statements 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 financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  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.

     In our opinion,  the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of Houston and O'Leary Company,
as of December 31, 1997,  and the results of its  operations  and its cash flows
for the year then  ended,  in  conformity  with  generally  accepted  accounting
principles.

                           HOUSTON AND O'LEARY COMPANY
                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION:

     Houston  and  O'Leary  Company  (the  "Company"),  a Colorado  corporation,
provides  luxury  vacation  property  rentals and sales in Aspen,  Colorado  and
provides  non-exclusive  rental services for approximately 130 rental units. The
Company  provides  its  management  services  to  property  owners  pursuant  to
management  contracts,  which are generally one year in length.  The majority of
such  contracts  contain  automatic  renewal  provisions but also allow property
owners to terminate the contract at any time.

   
     On  May  26,  1998,   ResortQuest   International,   Inc.   ("ResortQuest")
consummated  its initial  public  offering and  acquired all of the  outstanding
stock of the Company in exchange for cash and shares of ResortQuest common stock
(the  "Combination").  In  addition,  certain  non-operating  assets and related
liabilities  with a net asset  value of  $257,000  were  retained  by one of the
stockholders.  If this  transaction  had been recorded at December 31, 1997, the
effect  on the  accompanying  balance  sheet  would be a  decrease  in assets of
$357,000,  and  a  decrease  in  liabilities  of  $100,000  and  a  decrease  in
stockholders'  equity  of  $257,000.  In  addition,  the  stockholders  and  key
management  agreed to reductions in salary and benefits which would have reduced
general and  administrative  expenses by $58,000 in 1997.  In addition,  certain
stockholders  retained  non-operating  assets and  assumed  or  retired  certain
liabilities  that were excluded from the  Combination and the purchase price for
the Company was adjusted for certain working capital adjustments.
    

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

     Interim Financial Statements

   
     The  interim  financial  statements  at May 26,  1998,  and for the  period
January  1  throuhg  May 26,  1998  and six  months  ended  June 30,  1997,  are
unaudited,  and certain information and footnote disclosures,  normally included
in  financial   statements   prepared  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted
accounting  principles,  have been omitted.  In the opinion of  management,  all
adjustments,  consisting  only of normal  recurring  adjustments,  necessary  to
fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows with
respect to the interim financial statements,  have been included. The results of
operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results
for the entire fiscal year. 
    

     Revenue Recognition

     The  Company  records   property  rental  fees  on  the  accrual  basis  of
accounting,  ratably  over the term of  guest  stays,  as  earned.  The  Company
requires a deposit equal to 100% of the rental fee 45 days prior to the expected
arrival date.  These  deposits are  non-refundable  and are recorded as customer
deposits and deferred revenue in the accompanying financial statements until the
guest stay  commences.  The Company records  revenue for  cancellations  as they
occur. Commissions on real estate sales are recognized at closing.

     Operating Expenses

     Operating expenses include broker  commissions,  salaries,  communications,
advertising,  credit card fees and other costs  associated with rental and sales
of properties.

     Cash and Cash Equivalents

     For the purposes of the balance  sheets and  statements of cash flows,  the
Company  considers all investments  with original  maturities of three months or
less to be cash equivalents.

     Property and Equipment

     Property and equipment  are stated at cost,  and  depreciation  is computed
using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

                                      F-92

<PAGE>

                          HOUSTON AND O'LEARY COMPANY

                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)

     Expenditures  for  repairs  and  maintenance  are  charged to expense  when
incurred.  Expenditures  for major  renewals and  betterments,  which extend the
useful  lives of existing  equipment,  are  capitalized  and  depreciated.  Upon
retirement  or  disposition  of  property  and  equipment,  the cost and related
accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or
loss is recognized in the statement of operations.

     Income Taxes

     The  Company has elected S  Corporation  status as defined by the  Internal
Revenue  Code and state tax  statutes,  whereby,  the  Company is not subject to
taxation  for  federal  or  state  purposes.  Under S  Corporation  status,  the
stockholders  report their share of the Company's  taxable earnings or losses in
their personal tax returns.

     Use of Estimates

     The  preparation  of financial  statements  in  conformity  with  generally
accepted accounting  principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions by
management in determining  the reported  amounts of assets and  liabilities  and
disclosures  of contingent  assets and  liabilities at the date of the financial
statements  and the  reported  amounts  of  revenues  and  expenses  during  the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     Concentration of Risk

     The Company's  operations are  exclusively in the Aspen,  Colorado area and
are subject to significant changes due to weather conditions.

                          HOUSTON AND O'LEARY COMPANY

                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)

     Under  the  revolving  note  payable  to a bank,  the bank  will  provide a
revolving line of credit up to $100,000 to finance the Company's working capital
needs. At December 31, 1997, the Company had $99,000  outstanding on the line of
credit. Interest is payable monthly based upon the prime rate (9.50% at December
31, 1997). The note is collateralized by the assets of the Company.

     Subsequent to year end, the note payable to a bank was assigned and assumed
by one of the stockholders.

5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

     Litigation

     The Company is involved in various  legal  actions  arising in the ordinary
course of business.  Management  does not believe that the outcome of such legal
actions will have a material adverse effect on the Company's  financial position
or results of operations.

     Insurance

     The Company carries a broad range of insurance coverage,  including general
and business auto liability,  commercial property,  workers'  compensation and a
general  umbrella  policy.  The Company has not incurred  significant  claims or
losses on any of its  insurance  policies  during  the period  presented  in the
accompanying financial statements.

6. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION
   (UNAUDITED)

   
     In conjunction  with the acquisition of company stock by  ResortQuest,  the
Company  changed from an S Corporation to a C Corporation  for federal and state
income tax reporting  purposes,  which requires the Company to recognize the tax
consequences of operations in its statements of operations. The supplemental pro
forma information included in the accompanying  statements of operations reflect
the  estimated  impact of  recognizing  income tax expense as if the Company had
been a C Corporation  for tax  reporting  purposes for the six months ended June
30, 1997 and the period  January 1 through May 26, 1998,  and for the year ended
December 31, 1997.

     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 financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes

                             THE MAURY PEOPLE, INC.
                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION:

     The Maury People, Inc. (the "Company") is a Massachusetts corporation which
provides  vacation property rentals and sales on the island of Nantucket off the
coast of Massachusetts.  The Company provides  non-exclusive rental services for
approximately  1,200 rental units. The Company's  property rental operations are
seasonal, with peaks during the first and fourth quarters of the year.

   
     On May 26, 1998 ResortQuest International, Inc. ("ResortQuest") consummated
its initial  public  offering and acquired all of the  outstanding  stock of the
Company  in  exchange  for cash and  shares of  ResortQuest  common  stock  (the
"Combination").  In  connection  with  the  Combination,  the  owner  agreed  to
reductions  in  salary  and  benefits  which  would  have  reduced  general  and
administrative  expenses by  approximately  $142,000 for 1997. In addition,  the
stockholder  retained  non-operating  assets  and  assumed  or  retired  certain
liabilities  that were excluded from the Combinations and the purchase price for
the Company was adjusted for certain working capital adjustments.
    

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

     Interim Financial Statements

   
     The  interim  financial  statements  at May 26,  1998,  and for the  period
January  1  through  May 26,  1998  and six  months  ended  June 30,  1997,  are
unaudited,  and certain information and footnote disclosures,  normally included
in  financial   statements   prepared  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted
accounting  principles,  have been omitted.  In the opinion of  management,  all
adjustments,  consisting  only of normal  recurring  adjustments,  necessary  to
fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows with
respect to the interim financial statements,  have been included. The results of
operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results
for the entire fiscal year.
    

     Revenue Recognition

     The  Company  records  property  rental  fees upon the  receipt of customer
deposits. The Company requires a deposit equal to 100% of the rental fee 45 days
prior to the expected arrival date. Since these deposits are non-refundable, the
Company  records its fees and a payable to property  owners in the  accompanying
financial  statements.  The Company  records revenue for  cancellations  as they
occur.

     Commissions on real estate sales are recognized at closing and are recorded
net of the  related  commission  expense to  unaffiliated  brokers.  The Company
recognized   commission   revenues  of  $1,949,000  and  commission  expense  of
$1,120,000 to affiliated brokers for the year 1997.

     Operating Expenses

     Operating  expenses include agent  commissions,  salaries,  communications,
advertising, and other costs associated with managing and selling properties.

     Cash and Cash Equivalents

     For the purposes of the balance  sheets and  statements of cash flows,  the
Company  considers all investments  with original  maturities of three months or
less to be cash equivalents.

     Property and Equipment

     Property and equipment  are stated at cost,  and  depreciation  is computed
using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

                                     F-100

<PAGE>

                            THE MAURY PEOPLE, INC.

                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)

     Expenditures  for  repairs  and  maintenance  are  charged to expense  when
incurred.  Expenditures  for major  renewals and  betterments,  which extend the
useful  lives of existing  equipment,  are  capitalized  and  depreciated.  Upon
retirement  or  disposition  of  property  and  equipment,  the cost and related
accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or
loss is recognized in the statement of operations.

     Income Taxes

     The  Company has elected S  Corporation  status as defined by the  Internal
Revenue  Code and state tax  statutes,  whereby  the  Company is not  subject to
taxation  for  federal  or  state  purposes.  Under S  Corporation  status,  the
stockholders  report their share of the Company's  taxable earnings or losses in
their personal tax returns. 

     Use of Estimates

     The  preparation  of financial  statements  in  conformity  with  generally
accepted accounting  principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions by
management in determining  the reported  amounts of assets and  liabilities  and
disclosures  of contingent  assets and  liabilities at the date of the financial
statements  and the  reported  amounts  of  revenues  and  expenses  during  the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     Concentration of Risk

     The Company's operations are exclusively on Nantucket Island.

3. DETAIL OF CERTAIN BALANCE SHEET ACCOUNTS:

     At December 31, 1997, the Company had restricted cash totaling  $553,000 in

     Litigation

     The Company is involved in certain  legal  actions  arising in the ordinary

actions will have a material adverse effect on the Company's  financial position

     The  Company  carries  a  broad  range  of  insurance  coverage,  including
multiperil, workers' compensation and an error and omissions policy. The Company
has not incurred  significant  claims or losses on any of its insurance policies
during the periods presented in the accompanying financial statements.

     Benefit Plan

     For all eligible employees,  the Company sponsors a defined benefit pension
plan.  Plan  benefits  are  based on  years of  service  and  compensation.  The
Company's  funding  policy is to make  contributions  at a minimum in accordance
with the requirements of applicable laws and  regulations,  but no more than the
amount deductible for income tax purposes. The components of net pension expense

     The  weighted  average  discount  rate used in  determining  the  actuarial
present value of the projected benefit obligations was 7.0 percent. The expected
long-term rate of return on assets was 5.0 percent.

5.   RELATED PARTIES:

     At present, the Company intends to transfer its offices to facilities owned
by a trust of which the owner is the primary  beneficiary upon expiration of its
existing lease on March 31, 1999. The new lease term extends through March 2004,
with a five year  extension  option.  Annual rent payments begin at $185,400 and
increase  based on increases in the Consumer  Price Index subject to a 6% annual
ceiling on increases.

6.   NOTE PAYABLE:

     During 1997,  the Company had a $50,000 note payable to a bank,  due in one
payment  consisting of principal and interest.  The note bore interest at 6.35%.
The note was secured by a security  interest in a deposit account.  The note was
paid in full during 1997.

7.   PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION
     (UNAUDITED)

   
     In conjunction  with the acquisition of company stock by  ResortQuest,  the
Company  changed from an S Corporation to a C Corporation  for federal and state
income tax reporting  purposes,  which requires the Company to recognize the tax
consequences of operations in its statements of operations. The supplemental pro
forma information included in the accompanying  statements of operations reflect
the  estimated  impact of  recognizing  income tax expense as if the Company had
been a C Corporation  for tax  reporting  purposes for the six months ended June
30, 1997 and the period  January 1 through May 26, 1998,  and for the year ended
December 31, 1997.

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION:

     Howey Acquisition,  Inc. ("HAI") dba, Priscilla Murphy Realty, Inc. and its
wholly-owned  subsidiaries,  Priscilla  Murphy Realty,  Inc.  ("PMR") and Realty
Consultants,  Inc., (collectively the "Company"), are Florida corporations.  The
Company provides  vacation  property rentals and sales on the Florida Islands of
Sanibel and Captiva for approximately 900 rental units. The Company provides its
management  services to property owners  pursuant to management  contracts which
are  generally  one year in  length.  The  majority  of such  contracts  contain
automatic  renewal  provisions but also allow  property  owners to terminate the
contract at any time. The Company's operations are seasonal,  with a peak during
the first quarter of the year.

     On January 3, 1997,  HAI entered  into an  agreement to purchase the assets
and assume certain liabilities of PMR. HAI borrowed $5,800,000 from a bank and a
stockholder  to  finance  the  purchase  transaction.  The fair value of the net
assets purchased totaled  $225,000,  resulting in the recognition of goodwill of
$5,575,000.  The goodwill is being  amortized  using a 40-year  estimated  life.
Additionally,  the  Company  executed a  non-compete  agreement  with the former
shareholder valued at $200,000. The non-compete agreement is for a period of ten
years and is payable in  installments  of  approximately  $3,000 per month for 5
years.

   
     On  May  26,  1998,   ResortQuest   International,   Inc.   ("ResortQuest")
consummated  its initial  public  offering and  acquired all of the  outstanding
stock of the Company in exchange for cash and shares of ResortQuest common stock
(the "Combination"). In connection with the Combination,  stockholders agreed to
reductions  in  salary  and  benefits  which  would  have  reduced  general  and
administrative  expenses by $250,000,  $320,000  and $31,000 for 1995,  1996 and
1997,  respectively.  In addition,  certain stockholders retained  non-operating
assets and assumed or retired  certain  liabilities  that were excluded from the
Combination  and the  purchase  price for the Company was  adjusted  for certain
working capital adjustments. 
    

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

     Interim Financial Statements

   
     The  interim  financial  statements  at May 26,  1998,  and for the  period
January  1  through  May 26,  1998  and six  months  ended  June 30,  1997,  are
unaudited,  and certain information and footnote disclosures,  normally included
in  financial   statements   prepared  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted
accounting  principles,  have been omitted.  In the opinion of  management,  all
adjustments,  consisting  only of normal  recurring  adjustments,  necessary  to
fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows with
respect to the interim financial statements,  have been included. The results of
operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results
for the entire fiscal year. 
    

     Basis of Combination and Financial Statement Presentation

     The consolidated  financial  statements include the accounts of HAI and its
wholly-owned  subsidiary,  PMR (collectively,  the "Company").  All intercompany
items and transactions have been eliminated.

     The financial  statements of PMR (the "Predecessor  Company") are presented
for the purpose of complying  with the rules and  regulations  of the Securities
and Exchange  Commission.  The Predecessor  Company had only one class of common
stock and is included in Class A common stock for  presentation  purposes in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements.

     The  consolidated  statements of operations of the Companies for the period
from January 1, 1997 to January 3, 1997 (inception),  has not been presented due
to the nominal level of operations.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)

     Revenue Recognition

     The  Company  records   property  rental  fees  on  the  accrual  basis  of
accounting,  ratably  over the term of  guest  stays,  as  earned.  The  Company
requires a deposit equal to 100% of the rental fee 45 days prior to the expected
arrival date.  These  deposits are  non-refundable  and are recorded as customer
deposits and deferred revenue in the accompanying financial statements until the
guest stay  commences.  The Company records  revenue for  cancellations  as they
occur.

     Service fees are recorded for a variety of services and are  recognized  as
the service is provided,  including cleaning income,  repair and maintenance and
service charges.

     Commissions on real estate sales are recognized at closing and are recorded
net of  the  related  commission  expense.  The  Company  recognized  commission
revenues of  $4,360,000,  $5,221,000  and $5,440,000 for the years 1995 and 1996
and the period ending  December 31, 1997, and commission  expense of $3,034,000,
$3,591,000  and  $3,967,000  for the years 1995 and 1996 and the  period  ending
December 31, 1997, respectively.

     Operating Expenses

     Operating   expenses   include   travel   agent   commissions,    salaries,
communications,  advertising,  credit card fees and other costs  associated with
managing and selling properties.

     Cash and Cash Equivalents

     For the purposes of the balance  sheets and  statements of cash flows,  the
Company  considers all investments  with original  maturities of three months or
less to be cash equivalents.

     Property and Equipment

     Property and equipment  are stated at cost,  and  depreciation  is computed
using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

     Expenditures  for  repairs  and  maintenance  are  charged to expense  when
incurred.  Expenditures  for major  renewals and  betterments,  which extend the
useful  lives of existing  equipment,  are  capitalized  and  depreciated.  Upon
retirement  or  disposition  of  property  and  equipment,  the cost and related
accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or
loss is recognized in the statement of operations.

     Income Taxes

     The  Company has elected S  Corporation  status as defined by the  Internal
Revenue  Code and state tax  statutes,  whereby  the  Company is not  subject to
taxation for federal or state tax  purposes.  Under S  Corporation  status,  the
stockholders' report their shares of the Company's taxable earnings or losses in
their personal tax returns.

     Use of Estimates

     The  preparation  of financial  statements  in  conformity  with  generally
accepted accounting  principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions by
management in determining  the reported  amounts of assets and  liabilities  and
disclosures  of contingent  assets and  liabilities at the date of the financial
statements  and the  reported  amounts  of  revenues  and  expenses  during  the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     Concentration of Risk

   
     The  Company's  operations  are  exclusively  in the Fort Myers/Sanibel and
Captiva  Islands,  Florida  area  and  are subject to significant changes due to
weather conditions.

     Other assets consist of a non-compete agreement between the Company and the
prior owner. The total consideration for the agreement was $200,000 and is being
amortized  over the term of the agreement,  10 years.  The Company signed a five
year note payable for this agreement.

5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

     Litigation

     The Company is involved in various  legal  actions  arising in the ordinary
course of business.  Management  does not believe that the outcome of such legal
actions will have a material adverse effect on the Company's  financial position
or results of operations.

     Insurance

     The Company carries a broad range of insurance coverage,  including general
and business auto liability,  commercial property, workers' compensation,  error
and  omission,  and a general  umbrella  policy.  The Company  has not  incurred
significant claims or losses on any of its insurance policies during the periods
presented in the accompanying financial statements.

     Benefit Plans

     The Company's 401(k)  retirement plan is available to substantially  all of
the Company's employees.  The Company's contribution to the plan is based upon a
percentage of employee  contributions.  The cost of this plan was  approximately
$9,000 in 1995, $12,000 in 1996 and $9,000 in 1997.

6. RELATED PARTIES:

     The Company has leased office space under three separate  agreements  since
August 1997 from trusts  affiliated with an owner.  In aggregate,  rents paid to
these affiliated trusts were approximately $45,000.  Subsequent to year end, the
Company entered a fourth lease for an additional $12,000 per year.

7. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION
   (UNAUDITED)

   

     In conjunction  with the acquisition of Company stock by  ResortQuest,  the
Company  changed from an S Corporation to a C Corporation  for federal and state
income tax reporting  purposes,  which requires the Company to recognize the tax
consequences of operations in its statements of operations. The supplemental pro
forma information included in the accompanying  statements of operations reflect
the  estimated  impact of  recognizing  income tax expense as if the Company had
been a C Corporation  for tax  reporting  purposes for the six months ended June
30, 1997 and January 1 through May 26, 1998, and for the year ended December 31,
1997.

parties and  located  within the Park City,  Utah  region.  The Company  manages
approximately  330 total  rental  units.  The Company  provides  its  management
services  to  property  owners  pursuant  to  management  contracts,  which  are
generally one year in length.  The majority of such contracts  contain automatic
renewal  provisions but also allow property  owners to terminate the contract at
any time. The Company's  operations are seasonal,  with a peak during the second
quarter of the fiscal year.

     The Company had working capital deficits at September 30, 1997 and December
31, 1997. The Company has funded its operations  with cash flows from operations
and short-term borrowings from lenders.  Management expects that operations will
generate  sufficient  cash flows from  operations to meet the Company's  working
capital needs in 1998.

   
     On  May  26,  1998,   ResortQuest   International,   Inc.   ("ResortQuest")
consummated  its initial  public  offering and  acquired all of the  outstanding
stock of the Company in exchange for cash and shares of ResortQuest common stock
(the "Combination").  In connection with the Combination,  the owner and certain
key employees  have agreed to reductions in salary and benefits which would have
reduced general and  administrative  expenses by approximately  $186,000 for the
year  ended  September  30,  1997.  In  addition,  certain  stockholders  retain
non-operating  assets  and  assumed  or retired  certain  liabilities  that were
excluded  from the  Combination  and the  purchase  price  for the  Company  was
adjusted for certain working capital adjustments.
    

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

     Interim Financial Statements

   
     The  interim  financial  statements  at May 26,  1998,  and for the  period
January  1  through  May 26,  1998 and nine  months  ended  June 30,  1997,  are
unaudited,  and certain information and footnote disclosures,  normally included
in  financial   statements   prepared  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted
accounting  principles,  have been omitted.  In the opinion of  management,  all
adjustments,  consisting  only of normal  recurring  adjustments,  necessary  to
fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows with
respect to the interim financial statements,  have been included. The results of
operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results
for the entire fiscal year. 
    

     Revenue Recognition

   
     The  Company  records   property  rental  fees  on  the  accrual  basis  of
accounting,  ratably  over the term of  guest  stays,  as  earned.  During  peak
periods,  the Company requires a deposit equal to 100% of the rental fee 30 days
prior to the expected  arrival date. These deposits are  non-refundable  and are
recorded as customer deposits and deferred revenue in the accompanying  combined
financial statements until the guest stay commences. The Company records revenue
for cancellations as they occur. 
    

     Service fees are recorded for a variety of services and are  recognized  as
the service is provided, including housekeeping, phone service and rentals.

     Operating Expenses

     Operating   expenses   include   travel   agent   commissions,    salaries,
communications,  advertising,  credit card fees and other costs  associated with
managing and renting the properties.

     Cash and Cash Equivalents

     For the purposes of the balance  sheets and  statements of cash flows,  the
Company  considers all investments  with original  maturities of three months or
less to be cash equivalents.

     Property and Equipment

     Property and equipment  are stated at cost,  and  depreciation  is computed
using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

     Expenditures  for  repairs  and  maintenance  are  charged to expense  when
incurred.  Expenditures  for major  renewals and  betterments,  which extend the
useful  lives of existing  equipment,  are  capitalized  and  depreciated.  Upon
retirement  or  disposition  of  property  and  equipment,  the cost and related
accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or
loss is recognized in the statement of operations.

     Income Taxes

     The company  accounts for income taxes under the provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS No.
109").  Under SFAS No. 109, the current  provision  for income taxes  represents
actual or estimated  amounts payable or refundable on tax returns filed or to be
filed for each year.  Deferred tax assets and  liabilities  are recorded for the
estimated future tax effects of: (a) temporary differences between the tax bases
of assets and  liabilities  and  amounts  reported in the  consolidated  balance
sheets, and (b) operating loss and tax credit carryforwards.  The overall change
in deferred tax assets and  liabilities for the period measures the deferred tax
expense for the period.  Effects of changes in enacted tax laws on deferred  tax
assets and liabilities are reflected as adjustments to tax expense in the period
of  enactment.  The  measurement  of  deferred  tax  assets  may be reduced by a
valuation  allowance  based on judgemental  assessment of available  evidence if
deemed more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not
be realized.

     Use of Estimates

     The  preparation  of financial  statements  in  conformity  with  generally
accepted accounting  principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions by
management in determining  the reported  amounts of assets and  liabilities  and
disclosures  of contingent  assets and  liabilities at the date of the financial
statements  and the  reported  amounts  of  revenues  and  expenses  during  the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     Concentration of Risk

     The Company's  operations are  exclusively in the Park City,  Utah area and
are subject to significant changes in weather conditions.

                    TELLURIDE RESORT ACCOMMODATIONS, INC.
                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION:

     Telluride  Resort   Accommodations,   Inc.  (the  "Company"),   a  Colorado
corporation,  provides  property  rentals and management  services in Telluride,
Colorado and manages  approximately 450 total rental units. The Company provides
its management  services to property  owners  pursuant to management  contracts,
which are generally one year in length.  The majority of such contracts  contain
automatic  renewal  provisions but also allow  property  owners to terminate the
contract at any time. The Company's operations are seasonal,  with a peak during
the first quarter of the year.

     The Company had a working capital deficit at December 31, 1997. The Company
has  funded  its  operations  with cash flows  from  operations  and  short-term
borrowings  from  lenders.  Management  expects that  operations  will  generate
sufficient  cash flows from  operations  to meet the Company's  working  capital
needs during 1998.

   
     On  May  26,  1998,   ResortQuest   International,   Inc.   ("ResortQuest")
consummated  its initial  public  offering and  acquired all of the  outstanding
stock of the Company in exchange for cash and shares of ResortQuest common stock
(the  "Combination").  Certain  stockholders  retained  non-operating assets and
assumed or retired certain  liabilities  that were excluded from the Combination
and the purchase price for the Company was adjusted for certain  working capital
adjustments. 
    

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

     Interim Financial Statements

     The  interim  financial  statements  at March 31,  1998,  and for the three
months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, are unaudited, and certain information and
footnote  disclosures,  normally  included in financial  statements  prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles,  have been omitted. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments,  consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments,  necessary to fairly  present the  financial  position,  results of
operations and cash flows with respect to the interim financial statements, have
been  included.  The  results of  operations  for the  interim  periods  are not
necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year.

     Revenue Recognition

     The  Company  records   property  rental  fees  on  the  accrual  basis  of
accounting,  ratably  over the term of  guest  stays,  as  earned.  During  peak
periods,  the Company requires a deposit equal to 100% of the rental fee 45 days
prior to the expected  arrival date. These deposits are  non-refundable  and are
recorded as customer deposits and deferred revenue in the accompanying financial
statements  until the guest stay  commences.  The  Company  records  revenue for
cancellations as they occur.

     Service fees are recorded for a variety of services and are  recognized  as
the service is provided,  including  spring and fall cleaning,  unit maintenance
and housekeeping.

     Operating Expenses

     Operating expenses include travel agent commissions, salaries, maintenance,
housekeeping,  communications,  advertising,  credit  card fees and other  costs
associated with management of the properties.

     Cash and Cash Equivalents

     For the purposes of the balance  sheets and  statements of cash flows,  the
Company  considers all investments  with original  maturities of three months or
less to be cash equivalents.

     Property and Equipment

     Property and equipment  are stated at cost,  and  depreciation  is computed
using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets.

                                     F-129

<PAGE>

                     TELLURIDE RESORT ACCOMMODATIONS, INC.
                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)

     Expenditures  for  repairs  and  maintenance  are  charged to expense  when
incurred.  Expenditures  for major  renewals and  betterments,  which extend the
useful  lives of existing  equipment,  are  capitalized  and  depreciated.  Upon
retirement  or  disposition  of  property  and  equipment,  the cost and related
accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or
loss is recognized in the statement of operations.

     Income Taxes

     The  Company has elected S  Corporation  status as defined by the  Internal
Revenue  Code and state tax  statutes,  whereby  the  Company is not  subject to
taxation for federal or state tax  purposes.  Under S  Corporation  status,  the
stockholders  report their share of the Company's  taxable earnings or losses in
their personal tax returns.

     Use of Estimates

     The  preparation  of financial  statements  in  conformity  with  generally
accepted accounting  principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions by
management in determining  the reported  amounts of assets and  liabilities  and
disclosures  of contingent  assets and  liabilities at the date of the financial
statements  and the  reported  amounts  of  revenues  and  expenses  during  the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     Concentration of Risk

     The Company's  operations are  exclusively in the Telluride,  Colorado area
and are subject to significant changes due to weather conditions.

4.   LINES OF CREDIT:

     The  Company  has lines of  credit  with a bank.  The first  line of credit
matures  June 1998 and  provides a  revolving  line of credit up to  $200,000 to
finance  working  capital needs.  At December 31, 1997, the Company had $194,000
outstanding  on this line of credit.  Interest is payable  monthly at 1.75% over
the Wall Street  Journal Base Rate (8.5% at December 31, 1997).  The second line
of credit in the amount of  $90,000,  matures  August 31,  1998 and can be drawn
upon only in the event that certain guaranteed load factors aboard aircraft into
the Telluride  area are not met.  Interest is payable  monthly at 2.00% over the
Wall  Street  Journal  Base  Rate  (8.5% at  December  31,  1997).  There was no
outstanding balance on this line of credit at December 31, 1997.

5.   COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

     Litigation

     The Company is involved in various  legal  actions  arising in the ordinary
course of business.  Management  does not believe that the outcome of such legal
actions will have a material adverse effect on the Company's  financial position
or results of operations.

     Insurance

     The Company carries a broad range of insurance coverage,  including general
and business auto liability,  commercial property,  workers'  compensation and a
general  umbrella  policy.  The Company has not incurred  significant  claims or
losses on any of its  insurance  policies  during the periods  presented  in the
accompanying financial statement.

     Benefit Plans

     The Company's 401(k)  retirement plan is available to substantially  all of
the  Company's  employees.  The Plan  allows the  Company to make  discretionary
contributions to the Plan. The Company has made no such contribution to the Plan
in 1997.

6.   RELATED PARTIES:

     During 1997,  the Company paid certain  stockholders  $32,000 in consulting
fees. In addition,  the Company rented office space from  stockholders  totaling
$36,000.

7.   PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION
     (UNAUDITED)

   
     In conjunction with the merger with  ResortQuest,  the Company changed from
an S Corporation  to a C Corporation  for federal and state income tax reporting
purposes,  which  required  the Company to  recognize  the tax  consequences  of
operations  in  its  statements  of  operations.   The  supplemental  pro  forma
information  included in the accompanying  statements of operations  reflect the
estimated impact of recognizing  income tax expense as if the Company had been a
C Corporation for tax reporting  purposes for the six months ended June 30, 1997
and January 1 through May 26, 1998, and for the year ended December 31, 1997.

                   REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To Trupp-Hodnett Enterprises, Inc. and
 THE Management Company:

     We have audited the  accompanying  combined balance sheets of Trupp Hodnett
Company,  consisting  of  Trupp-Hodnett  Enterprises,  Inc.  and THE  Management
Company (both Georgia corporations) (collectively "Trupp Hodnett Company" or the
"Company") as of December 31, 1996 and 1997, and the related combined statements
of  operations,  changes  in  stockholders'  equity and cash flows for the years
ended December 31, 1996 and 1997.  These combined  financial  statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these combined financial statements based on our audits.

     We conducted  our audits in accordance  with  generally  accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

     In our opinion, the combined financial statements referred to above present
fairly,  in all  material  respects,  the combined  financial  position of Trupp
Hodnett  Company,  as of December  31,  1996 and 1997,  and the results of their
combined  operations  and their cash flows for the years then ended December 31,
1996 and 1997 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION:

     THE  Management  Company  ("TMC"),  an  S  Corporation,  and  Trupp-Hodnett
Enterprises, Inc. ("THE"), a C Corporation, (collectively "Trupp Hodnett" or the
"Company"),  both  Georgia  corporations,  are  leading  providers  of  vacation
property rentals,  management services and sales in St. Simons Island,  Georgia.
Trupp Hodnett manages approximately 400 total rental units. The Company provides
its management  services to property  owners  pursuant to management  contracts,
which generally are one year in length.  The majority of such contracts  contain
automatic  renewal  provisions but also allow  property  owners to terminate the
contract at any time. The Company's  operations are seasonal,  with peaks during
the second and third quarters of the year.

   
     On  May  26,  1998,   ResortQuest   International,   Inc.   ("ResortQuest")
consummated  its initial  public  offering and  acquired all of the  outstanding
stock of the Company in exchange for cash and shares of ResortQuest common stock
(the  "Combination").  In  addition,  the owner and certain key  employees  have
agreed to reductions in salary and benefits which would have reduced general and
administrative  expenses by approximately $865,000 and $1.1 million for 1996 and
1997,  respectively.  In addition,  certain stockholders retained  non-operating
assets and assumed or retired  certain  liabilities  that were excluded from the
Combination  and the  purchase  price for the Company was  adjusted  for certain
working capital adjustments. 
    

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

     Interim Financial Statements

   
     The  interim  financial  statements  at May 26,  1998,  and for the  period
January  1  through  May 26,  1998  and six  months  ended  June 30,  1997,  are
unaudited,  and certain information and footnote disclosures,  normally included
in  financial   statements   prepared  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted
accounting  principles,  have been omitted.  In the opinion of  management,  all
adjustments,  consisting  only of normal  recurring  adjustments,  necessary  to
fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows with
respect to the interim financial statements,  have been included. The results of
operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results
for the entire fiscal year. 
    

     Revenue Recognition

     The  Company  records   property  rental  fees  on  the  accrual  basis  of
accounting,  ratably  over the term of guest  stays,  as earned.  For weekly and
monthly stays in homes and cottages the Company  requires a deposit equal to 50%
of the rental fee 60 days prior to the expected arrival date. These deposits are
refundable with 60 days notice of cancellation. Daily and weekly stays in "condo
hotels" use a credit card to guarantee arrival.

     All deposits are recorded as customer  deposits and deferred revenue in the
accompanying  combined  financial  statements  until the guest  stay  commences.
Advance  deposits are recorded as payable to property  owners,  ratably over the
term of guest stays, as earned. The Company records revenue for cancellations as
they occur.

     Service fees are recorded for a variety of services and are  recognized  as
the service is provided, including management fees.

   
     Commissions on real estate sales are recognized at closing and are recorded
net of  the  related  commission  expense.  The  Company  recognized  commission
revenues of $1,308,000 and $1,621,000 for the years 1996 and 1997,  respectively
and  commission  expense of $635,000  and  $729,000 for the years 1996 and 1997,
respectively.

                             TRUPP HODNETT COMPANY

                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)

     Operating Expenses

     Operating   expenses   include   travel   agent   commissions,    salaries,
communications,  advertising,  credit card fees and other costs  associated with
managing and selling properties.

     Cash and Cash Equivalents

     For the purposes of the balance  sheets and  statements of cash flows,  the
Company  considers all investments  with original  maturities of three months or
less to be cash equivalents.

     Property and Equipment

     Property and equipment  are stated at cost,  and  depreciation  is computed
using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

     Expenditures  for  repairs  and  maintenance  are  charged to expense  when
incurred.  Expenditures  for major  renewals and  betterments,  which extend the
useful  lives of existing  equipment,  are  capitalized  and  depreciated.  Upon
retirement  or  disposition  of  property  and  equipment,  the cost and related
accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or
loss is recognized in the combined statements of operations.

     Other Assets

     As of December 31, 1996,  other assets is comprised of properties  held for
resale.

     Income Taxes

     TMC has elected S  Corporation  status as defined by the  Internal  Revenue
Code and state tax statutes, whereby, TMC is not subject to taxation for federal
or state tax purposes. Under S Corporation status, the stockholders report their
share of the Company's taxable earnings or losses in their personal tax returns.

   
     THE is a regular C  Corporation  and as such is  subject  to  taxation  for
federal and state  purposes.  THE accounts for income taxes under the provisions
of Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income
Taxes"  ("SFAS No. 109").  Under SFAS No. 109, the current  provision for income
taxes  represents  actual or  estimated  amounts  payable or  refundable  on tax
returns filed or to be filed for each year.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities
are recorded for the estimated future tax effects of: (a) temporary  differences
between  the tax bases of assets and  liabilities  and  amounts  reported in the
consolidated   balance   sheets,   and  (b)   operating   loss  and  tax  credit
carryforwards. The overall change in deferred tax assets and liabilities for the
period  measures the deferred tax expense for the period.  Effects of changes in
enacted  tax laws on  deferred  tax  assets and  liabilities  are  reflected  as
adjustments  to tax  expense  in the period of  enactment.  The  measurement  of
deferred tax assets may be reduced by a valuation allowance based on judgemental
assessment of available evidence if deemed more likely than not that some or all
of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
    

     Use of Estimates

     The  preparation  of financial  statements  in  conformity  with  generally
accepted accounting  principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions by
management in determining  the reported  amounts of assets and  liabilities  and
disclosures  of contingent  assets and  liabilities at the date of the financial
statements  and the  reported  amounts  of  revenues  and  expenses  during  the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     Concentration of Risk

     The Company's  operations are exclusively in the St. Simons Island area and
are subject to significant changes due to weather conditions.

9.   PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION
     (UNAUDITED)

   
     In conjunction with the merger with ResortQuest,  the TMC changed from an S
Corporation  to a C  Corporation  for  federal  and state  income tax  reporting
purposes,  which  required  the Company to  recognize  the tax  consequences  of
operations  in  its  statements  of  operations.   The  supplemental  pro  forma
information  included in the accompanying  statements of operations  reflect the
estimated impact of recognizing  income tax expense as if the Company had been a
C Corporation  for tax reporting  purposes  during the six months ended June 30,
1997 and  January 1 through  May 26,  1998 and for the year ended  December  31,
1997.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   GENERAL:

     ResortQuest International, Inc., a Delaware Corporation,  ("ResortQuest" or
the "Company"), formerly Vacation Properties International, Inc., was founded on
September 12, 1997 to create the leading  single  provider of vacation  property
rental, management and real estate services.  ResortQuest acquired substantially
all  of the  assets  of  thirteen  companies  (the  "Founding  Companies")  (the
"Combinations") and completed an initial public offering (the "Offering") of its
common stock on May 26, 1998.  However,  for accounting and reporting  purposes,
Aston Hotels & Resorts  ("Aston") was identified as the accounting  acquiror and
the remaining Founding Companies along with ResortQuest were accounted for under
the purchase  method of  accounting.  Accordingly,  these  financial  statements
present the financial  results of ResortQuest  prior to the Combinations and the
Offering.

     ResortQuest  has not conducted any  operations,  and all activities to date
have  related to the Offering  and the  Combinations.  Cash of $200 was provided
from  the  initial  capitalization  of the  Company  (see  Note  2).  All  other
expenditures  are being funded by VPI Funding,  LLC ("VPI"),  a Delaware limited
liability company whose member managers are owners of the Company.  Accordingly,
statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for the
period from inception  (September 12, 1997 through  December 31, 1997) would not
provide  meaningful  information  and have been omitted.  As of May 26, 1998 and
December 31, 1997, costs of approximately  $3,525,000  (unaudited) and $244,000,
respectively,  have been incurred by ResortQuest in connection with the Offering
of which approximately  $1,210,000  (unaudited) and $0, respectively were due to
VPI.

2.   STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY:

     Interim Financial Statements

     The interim  financial  statements  as of May 26, 1998,  and for the period
January 1 through May 26,  1998,  are  unaudited,  and certain  information  and
footnote  disclosures,  normally  included in financial  statements  prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles,  have been omitted. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments,  consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments,  necessary to fairly  present the  financial  position,  results of
operations and cash flows with respect to the interim financial statements, have
been  included.  The  results of  operations  for the  interim  periods  are not
necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year.

     Common Stock and Preferred Stock

     In  connection  with  the  organization  and  initial   capitalization   of
ResortQuest, the Company issued 293.9481 pre-split and 2,596,961 post-split (see
discussion  below) shares of common stock ("Common  Stock") at $.01 per share to
Capstone Partners,  LLC ("Capstone") and Alpine Consolidated II, LLC ("Alpine").
Additionally, certain other stockholders were issued 2.1844 pre-split and 19,300
post-split (see  discussion  below) shares of Common Stock at $.01 per share. On
March 1, 1998  Capstone  and Alpine  contributed  28.297  pre-split  and 249,997
post-split (see discussion below) shares of Common Stock to VPI Funding, LLC.

     In  February  1998,  the  Company  issued  58.6738  pre-split  and  518,369
post-split (see  discussion  below) shares of Common Stock to management at $.01
per share. As a result, the Company recorded for financial  statement purposes a
non-recurring,  non-cash  compensation charge of $5,682,000  (unaudited) for the
three months  ended March 31,  1998,  representing  the  difference  between the
consideration  paid and the  estimated  fair  value of the shares at the date of
sale.

                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS- (CONTINUED)

   
     ResortQuest  effected an 8,834.76-for-one  stock split (unaudited) on March

of Common Stock split and the increase in the shares of authorized  Common Stock
have been retroactively  reflected in the accompanying  financial statements and
related notes.

     Restricted Common Stock

     In March 1998, the stockholders  exchanged 3,134,630 shares of Common Stock
for an equal number of shares of  restricted  voting  common stock  ("Restricted
Common Stock").  The Common Stock and the Restricted  Common Stock are identical
except that the holders of Restricted Common Stock are only entitled to one-half
of one vote for each share on all matters.

     Long-Term Incentive Plan

     In March  1998,  the  Board of  Directors  and the  Company's  stockholders
approved the Company's 1998 Long-Term  Incentive Plan (the "Plan").  The purpose
of the Plan is to provide a means by which the  Company  can  attract and retain
executive officers,  employee directors,  other key employees,  non-employee and
advisory directors and consultants of and other service providers to the Company
and its  subsidiaries  and to  compensate  such  persons in a way that  provides
additional  incentives  and  enables  such  persons  to  acquire  or  increase a
proprietary  interest in the Company.  Individual awards under the Plan may take
the form of one or more of: (i)  either  incentive  stock  options  ("ISOs")  or
non-qualified stock options ("NQSOs");  (ii) stock appreciation rights ("SARs");
(iii) restricted or deferred stock; (iv) dividend equivalents;  (v) bonus shares
and  awards  in lieu of  Company  obligations  to pay  cash  compensation;  (vi)
non-employee  directors'  deferred  shares;  and (vii) other awards the value of
which is based in whole or in part upon the value of the Common Stock.

     The  Company  has  reserved  1,807,000  shares of  Common  Stock for use in
connection  with the Plan. The maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may
be  subject  to  outstanding  awards  under the Plan will not  exceed 12% of the
aggregate  number of shares of Common  Stock  outstanding,  minus the  number of
shares  previously  issued pursuant to awards granted under the Plan.  Shares of
Common Stock which are attributable to awards which have expired,  terminated or
been canceled or forfeited are available for issuance or use in connection  with
future awards.

     In connection with the Offering, options in the form of NQSOs to purchase a
total  of  435,000  shares  of  Common  Stock of the  Company  were  granted  to
management of the Company.  Each of the foregoing  option grants has an exercise
price equal to the initial public offering price per share in the Offering,  and
will vest at a rate of 25% per year.  The options  generally  will expire on the
earlier of 10 years after the date of grant or three months after termination of
employment  (immediately  in the  event  of a  termination  for  cause),  unless
otherwise  determined  by the  Committee.  The Plan will remain in effect  until
terminated by the Company's Board of Directors.

3. STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

     Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting
for  Stock-Based  Compensation,"  allows  entities to choose  between a new fair
value based method of accounting  for employee  stock options or similar  equity
instruments  and  the  current  intrinsic,   value-based  method  of  accounting
prescribed  by  Accounting  Principles  Board  Opinion  No. 25 ("APB  No.  25").
Companies electing to remain with the accounting in APB Opinion No. 25 must make
pro forma  disclosure  of net income and earnings per share as if the fair value
method of  accounting  had been  applied.  The  Company  will  provide pro forma
disclosure of net income and net income per share,  as applicable,  in the notes
to future consolidated financial statements.

                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS- (CONTINUED)

     In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
of Financial  Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share ("SFAS No. 128").
For the  Company,  SFAS No. 128 was  effective  for the year ended  December 31,
1997. SFAS No. 128 simplified the standards  required under previous  accounting
rules for computing  earnings per share and replaced the presentation of primary
earnings per share and fully diluted  earnings per share with a presentation  of
basic earnings per share ("basic EPS") and diluted  earnings per share ("diluted
EPS").  Basic  EPS  excludes  dilution  and is  determined  by  dividing  income
available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during the period.  Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that
could  occur if  securities  and other  contracts  to issue  common  stock  were
exercised or converted into common stock.

ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

     Subsection (a) of Section 145 of the General  Corporation  Law of the State
of Delaware (the "DGCL")  empowers a corporation to indemnify any person who was
or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened,  pending or
completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative  (other than an action by or in the right of the  corporation ) by
reason of the fact that he is or was a director,  officer,  employee or agent of
the  corporation,  or is or was serving at the request of the  corporation  as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation,  partnership, joint
venture,  trust or other  enterprise,  against  expenses  (including  attorneys'
fees),  judgments,  fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by him in connection  with such action,  suit or proceeding if he acted
in good faith and in a manner he reasonably  believed to be in or not opposed to
the best interests of the corporation,  and, with respect to any criminal action
or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

     Subsection  (b) of Section 145  empowers a  corporation  to  indemnify  any
person  who  was or is a  party  or is  threatened  to be  made a  party  to any
threatened,  pending,  or  completed  action,  or suit by or in the right of the
corporation  to procure a judgment  in its favor by reason of the fact that such
person  acted  in  any of the  capacities  set  forth  above,  against  expenses
(including   attorneys'  fees)  actually  and  reasonably  incurred  by  him  in
connection  with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he acted in
good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the
best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification may be made in
respect of any claim,  issue or matter as to which such  person  shall have been
made to be liable to the  corporation  unless  and only to the  extent  that the
Court of Chancery  or the court in which such  action or suit was brought  shall
determine upon  application  that,  despite the adjudication of liability but in
view of all the  circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably
entitled  to  indemnify  for such  expenses  which the Court of Chancery or such
other court shall deem proper.

     Section 145 further  provides that to the extent a director or officer of a
corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any
action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 145
in the defense of any claim,  issue or matter  therein,  he shall be indemnified
against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by
him in connection  therewith;  that indemnification  provided for by Section 145
shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the indemnified party
may be entitled; that indemnification  provided for by Section 145 shall, unless
otherwise provided when authorized or ratified,  continue as to a person who has
ceased to be a  director,  officer,  employee  or agent  and shall  inure to the
benefit of such person's heirs,  executors and administrators;  and empowers the
corporation  to  purchase  and  maintain  insurance  on behalf of a director  or
officer of the  corporation  against  any  liability  asserted  against  him and
incurred  by him in any such  capacity,  or  arising  out of his  status as such
whether or not the  corporation  would have the power to  indemnify  him against
such liabilities under Section 145.

     Section  102(b)(7) of the DGCL provides that a certificate of incorporation
may contain a provision  eliminating  or limiting  the  personal  liability of a
director to the corporation or its  stockholders for monetary damages for breach
of fiduciary duty as a director provided that such provision shall not eliminate
or limit the liability of a director:  (i) for any breach of the director's duty
of loyalty to the  corporation or its  stockholders;  (ii) for acts or omissions
not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation
of law;  (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL; or (iv) for any  transaction  from
which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

     Articles Seventh and Eighth of the Company's  Certificate of Incorporation,
as amended, states that:

     "No director of the  Corporation  shall be liable to the Corporation or its
stockholders  for monetary  damages for breach of fiduciary  duty as a director,
except for liability:  (1) for any breach of the  director's  duty of loyalty to
the Corporation or its stockholders; (2) for acts or omissions not in good faith
or which involve  intentional  misconduct or a knowing violation of the law; (3)
under  Section  174 of the  DGCL;  or (4) for any  transaction  from  which  the
director derived an improper personal benefit,

     The Corporation  shall,  to the fullest extent  permitted by Section 145 of
the DGCL,  as  amended  from time to time,  indemnify  all  persons  whom it may
indemnify pursuant thereto.

     In addition,  Article II of the Company's  Bylaws further provides that the
Company shall  indemnify  its  officers,  directors and employees to the fullest
extent permitted by law.

   
     The Company has entered into  indemnification  agreements  with each of its
executive  officers and directors which  indemnifies  such person to the fullest
extent permitted by its Amended and Restated  Certificate of Incorporation,  its
Bylaws and the DGCL.  The  Company  also has  obtained  directors  and  officers
liability insurance. 
    

ITEM 15. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES.

     The following  information  relates to all securities of the Company issued
or sold by the Company  within the past three  years  which were not  registered
under the Securities Act.

   
       (a) RQI was organized in September  1997 and issued  97.9827 and 195.9654
   shares of its Common Stock to its Founders, Capstone Partners, LLC and Alpine
   Consolidated II, LLC, respectively, at a per share price of $.01. On March 9,
   1998, the number of these shares were increased by a 8,834.76-  for-one stock
   split.

       (b) In November and December of 1997 and the first  quarter of 1998,  RQI
   issued  60.8584  shares  of its  Common  Stock to 18  individuals,  including
   persons  who were to  become  officers,  directors  or key  employees  of the
   Company at a per share price of $.01.  On March 9, 1998,  the number of these
   shares were increased by a 8,834.76-for-one stock split.
    

       (c) See "Certain Transactions" for a discussion of the issuance of shares
   of Common Stock and options to purchase  shares of Common Stock in connection
   with the Combinations.

   
     The offers and sales of these shares was exempt from registration under the
Securities Act of 1933 in reliance on Section 4(2) thereof because,  among other
things, the offers and sales were made to sophisticated  investors,  or officers
and directors of the Company,  who had access to information  about RQI and were
able to bear the risk of loss of their investment

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.

     The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes as follows:

     (1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the
information  omitted  from  the  form  of  prospectus  filed  as  part  of  this
registration  statement  in  reliance  on Rule 430A and  contained  in a form of
prospectus  filed by the registrant  pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h)
under  the  Securities  Act  shall  be  deemed  to be part of this  registration
statement at the time it is declared effective.

     (2) For the purpose of determining  any liability under the Securities Act,
each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed
to be a new registration  statement  relating to the securities offered therein,
and the offering of such  securities at that time shall be the initial bona fide
offering thereof.

     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may  be  permitted  to  directors,  officers  and  controlling  persons  of  the
registrant  pursuant to the provisions  described in Item 14, or otherwise,  the
registrant  has been advised that in the opinion of the  Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act
and is, therefore,  unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such  liabilities  (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director,  officer or controlling person of the registrant
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director,  officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been  settled by  controlling  precedent,  submit to a court of  appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such  indemnification  by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.

     of Rule 145 ("Rule  145") of the  Securities  Act of 1933,  as amended (the
     "Securities   Act")  which  rule  subjects   such   affiliates  to  certain
     limitations  and  restrictions  with  respect  to the sale or  transfer  of
     certain  stock.  Accordingly,  the Sellers agree that the RQI Stock and any
     and all  other or  additional  shares  of  capital  stock of RQI  issued or
     delivered  by  RQI  with  respect  to the  RQI  Stock,  including,  without
     limitation,  any shares of capital  stock of RQI issued or  delivered  as a
     result  of  any  stock   split,   stock   dividend,   stock   distribution,
     recapitalization or similar  transaction  (collectively with the RQI Stock,
     the  "Restricted  RQI  Stock")  shall  be  subject  to the  conditions  and
     restrictions set forth in this SECTION 1.6 and in the Affiliate  Agreements
     to be executed by each of the Sellers contemporaneously herewith.

          (b) Restrictions on Transfer

          (i) Other than  transfers to immediate  family members who agree to be
bound by the  restrictions  set forth in this  SECTION  1.6 (or  trusts  for the
benefit of family members of the Sellers,  the trustees of which so agree),  the
Sellers  shall  not  sell,  assign,  exchange,  transfer,  pledge,  hypothecate,
encumber,  distribute or otherwise  dispose of  (collectively,  "Transfer")  any
shares of  Restricted  RQI Stock  received by the Sellers  hereunder,  except in
compliance  with (A) federal and state  securities  laws,  rules and regulations
(collectively,  "Securities Laws") including,  without limitation, Rule 145, and
(B)  each  Seller's  Affiliate  Agreement.   The  certificates   evidencing  the
Restricted RQI Stock  delivered to the Sellers  pursuant to this Agreement shall
bear a legend substantially in the form set forth in the Affiliate Agreement and
shall contain such other information as RQI may deem necessary or appropriate.

          (ii) If any Seller desires to make a Transfer,  the Seller shall first
provide  written notice thereof to RQI,  together with the name of the broker or
market maker through whom such Seller  desires to make the Transfer.  As soon as
reasonably practicable, but not more than three (3) business days, after receipt
of such notice by RQI, RQI shall either (i) permit such Seller to use his or her
broker or market  maker,  or (ii)  designate in writing to such Seller the names
and other pertinent information of at least


<PAGE>



two other  brokers or market  makers who actively make a market of RQI Stock and
through  whom the  Transfer  may be made  (subject to Rule 145  limitations  and
restrictions on resale, as applicable). RQI shall not record a Transfer upon its
books of any shares of Restricted  RQI Stock unless prior thereto RQI shall have
received from counsel to such Seller,  reasonably  acceptable to RQI, an opinion
of such counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to RQI that such Transfer is
in  compliance  with  this  SECTION  1.6 and Rule 145 or  registered  under  the
Securities Act.

          (iii) With respect to the Restricted RQI Stock,  RQI shall pay (A) any
and all New York Stock  Exchange  listing  fees and (B) any stock  brokerage  or
other fees, if any,  related to the issuance and delivery of the  Restricted RQI
Stock at Closing.

     2.15  Litigation.  Except as set forth on SCHEDULE 2.15,  there is no Claim
     pending or, to the  Knowledge of any Seller or either  Company,  threatened
     against,  relating to or affecting any of the Sellers,  the Cathedral Group
     or any of the assets or properties of the Cathedral  Group nor is there any
     Order outstanding against any of the Sellers, the Cathedral Group or any of
     the assets or properties of the Cathedral Group.

     2.16 Tax Matters.

          (a) The Cathedral  Group has filed all federal,  state,  and local tax
     reports,  returns,  information returns and other documents  (collectively,
     the "Tax Returns")  required to be filed with any federal,  state, local or
     other taxing  authorities  (each a "Taxing  Authority",  collectively,  the
     "Taxing  Authorities") in respect of all relevant taxes,  including without
     limitation income,  premium, gross receipts,  net proceeds,  alternative or
     add on minimum, ad valorem,  value added,  turnover,  sales, use, property,
     personal property (tangible and intangible),  stamp, leasing,  lease, user,
     excise,  duty,  franchise,   transfer,   license,   withholding,   payroll,
     employment,  fuel, excess profits,  occupational and interest equalization,
     windfall  profits,  severance,  and other charges  (including  interest and
     penalties)  (collectively,  the  "Taxes")  and in  accordance  with all tax
     sharing  agreements  to which the Sellers or the  Cathedral  Group may be a
     party.  All Taxes  required or anticipated to be paid for all periods prior
     to and  including  the  Effective  Date have  been  paid or are  adequately
     provided for in the  Financial  Statements,  including any of the Cathedral
     Group's  Taxes  that may be due or  claimed  to be due as a  result  of the
     consummation of the transactions  contemplated by this Agreement. All Taxes
     which are required to be withheld or collected by the Cathedral  Group have
     been duly withheld or collected and, to the extent required, have been paid
     to the proper  Taxing  Authority  or properly  segregated  or  deposited as
     required by applicable laws. There are no Liens for Taxes upon any property
     or assets of the Cathedral Group except for Liens for Taxes not yet due and
     payable.  Neither the Sellers nor the Cathedral Group has executed a waiver
     of the statute of limitations on the right of the Internal  Revenue Service
     or any other Taxing Authority to assess  additional Taxes or to contest the
     income or loss with respect to any Tax Return. The basis of any depreciable
     assets,  and  the  methods  used  in  determining  allowable   depreciation
     (including cost  recovery),  is correct and in compliance with the Internal
     Revenue  Code of 1986,  as  amended  and the  regulations  thereunder  (the
     "Code") in all material respects.

          (b) No  audit of the  Cathedral  Group or the  Cathedral  Group's  Tax
     Returns by any Taxing  Authority is currently  pending or threatened,  and,
     except as set forth on  SCHEDULE  2.16,  no issues  have been raised by any
     Taxing  Authority in connection  with any Tax Returns.  No material  issues
     have been raised in any examination by any Taxing Authority with respect to
     the  Cathedral  Group  which  reasonably  could be  expected to result in a
     proposed deficiency for any other period not so examined,  and there are no
     unresolved issues or unpaid deficiencies relating to such examinations. The
     items  relating to the business,  properties or 


<PAGE>



     operations of the Cathedral  Group on the Tax Returns filed by or on behalf
     of the Cathedral  Group for all taxable  years  (including  the  supporting
     schedules filed therewith), available copies of which have been supplied to
     Buyer,  state  accurately  the  information  requested  with respect to the
     Cathedral Group and such information was derived from the books and records
     of the Cathedral Group.

          (c) The Cathedral Group has not made nor has become obligated to make,
     nor  will as a result  of any  event  connected  with  the  Closing  become
     obligated  to make,  any "excess  parachute  payment" as defined in Section
     280G of the Code (without regard to subsection (b)(4) thereof).

          (d) Except for Chapel,  none of the Cathedral  Group is a Subchapter S
     corporation  and has not been,  within the  five-year  period  prior to the
     Closing,  a  Subchapter  S  corporation.  Chapel is, and has been since its
     incorporation, a Subchapter S corporation.

     safety  where  such  failure  or  failures  would  individually  or in  the

     to the  Knowledge  of any  Seller or either  Company,  are there any Claims
     threatened,  nor have the  Sellers  or the  Cathedral  Group  received  any
     written  notice,  regarding  any  violations  of, or  defaults  under,  any
     Regulations and Orders enforced by any Authority claiming jurisdiction over
     the Cathedral  Group,  including,  without  limitation,  any requirement of
     OSHA, any pollution and  environmental  control  agency  (including air and

     threatened and there is no basis for believing that such Permit will not be
     renewable upon expiration.

          (b) Promptly  notify  Buyer in writing if any Seller or the  Cathedral
     Group becomes aware of any fact or condition  that causes or  constitutes a
     breach of any  representation  or warranty  of any Seller or the  Cathedral
     Group as of the date of this Agreement,  or if such Seller or the Cathedral
     Group becomes aware of the  occurrence  after the date of this Agreement of
     any fact or condition that would (except as expressly  contemplated by this
     Agreement)  cause or  constitute  a breach  of any such  representation  or
     warranty had such  representation  or warranty  been made as of the time of
     occurrence or discovery of such fact or condition.  Should any such fact or
     condition require any change in any schedule hereto,  Sellers will promptly
     deliver  to Buyer a  proposed  amendment  or  supplement  to such  schedule
     specifying  such change.  No such  proposed  amendment or  supplement  to a
     schedule shall constitute an amendment or supplement to such schedule until
     Buyer shall have consented thereto.  Each Seller will promptly notify Buyer
     of the  occurrence of any breach of any covenant of Sellers in this ARTICLE
     4 or  ARTICLE  6 or of the  occurrence  of any  event  that  may  make  the
     satisfaction of the conditions in ARTICLE 7 impossible or unlikely.

     4.6  Fulfillment  of Conditions  Precedent.  Refrain from taking any action
     which,  if taken on or prior to the  Effective  Date,  would  constitute  a
     breach of this  Agreement.  The  Cathedral  Group and the Sellers shall use
     their best efforts to obtain at their  expense,  on or prior to the Closing
     Date,   all  such   waivers,   Permits,   consents,   approvals   or  other
     authorizations from third parties and Authorities,  and to do all things as
     may  be  necessary  or  desirable  in  connection  with  the   transactions
     contemplated  by  this  Agreement  in  order  to  fully  and  expeditiously
     consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

     4.7 Tax  Returns.  File all Tax Returns and reports  with  respect to Taxes
     which are  required  to be filed for Tax  periods  ending on or before  the
     Effective Date (a


<PAGE>



     "Pre-Closing Tax Return"),  and the Cathedral Group shall pay all Taxes due
     in respect  of such  Pre-Closing  Tax  Returns  to the  appropriate  Taxing
     Authority;  and the Cathedral Group shall pay all costs associated with the
     preparation thereof.

     4.8 No Solicitation or Negotiation.  Refrain from, and cause its directors,
     officers,  employees,  representatives,  agents, advisors,  accountants and
     attorneys to refrain from, initiating,  soliciting or encouraging, directly
     or indirectly, any inquiries or the making of any proposal with respect to,
     or  engage  in  negotiations   concerning,   or  provide  any  confidential
     information or data to any Person with respect to, or have any  discussions
     with any Persons  relating to, any  acquisition,  business  combination  or
     purchase of all or any significant asset of, or any equity interest in, the
     Cathedral  Group,  or otherwise  facilitate  any effort or attempt to do or
     seek any of the  foregoing,  and  shall  immediately  cease and cause to be
     terminated any existing  activities,  discussions or negotiations  with any
     parties conducted  heretofore with respect to any of the foregoing.  Should
     the Cathedral  Group or any Seller be contacted  with respect to any offer,
     inquiry or proposal,  the Cathedral Group and the Sellers shall immediately
     advise  Buyer in  writing  of the name,  address  and  phone  number of the
     contact and the nature of the inquiry.

     4.9 Public Announcements.  Refrain from disclosing any of the terms of this
     Agreement  to any third  party  (other  than  Buyer's  advisors  and senior
     lending  group and the Sellers'  advisors)  without the other party's prior
     written consent unless  required by any applicable  law. The form,  content
     and timing of any and all press releases, public announcements or publicity
     statements  (except  for any  disclosures  under or  pursuant to Federal or
     State  securities  laws in  connection  with the  registration  of  Buyer's
     securities or otherwise) with respect to this Agreement or the transactions
     contemplated hereby shall be subject to the prior approval of the Buyer and
     the Sellers' Representative.

     4.10 Termination of Agreements.  Terminate or cause to be terminated, on or
     prior  to the  Effective  Date,  (i) any  stockholders  agreements,  voting
     agreements,  voting trusts,  options,  warrants and  employment  agreements
     between  the  Cathedral  Group  and any  employee  and  (ii)  any  existing
     agreement  between the Cathedral Group and any stockholder of the Cathedral
     Group not reflecting fair market terms,  except such existing agreements as
     are set forth on SCHEDULE 4.10. Such  termination  agreements are listed on
     SCHEDULE 4.10 and copies thereof are attached hereto.

ARTICLE V. COVENANTS OF BUYER

     Buyer hereby  covenants  and agrees with the Companies and the Sellers that
     prior to the Closing or the termination of this Agreement:

     5.1 Full Access and Disclosure.


<PAGE>



          (a) Buyer shall afford to the  Companies  and each  Seller,  and their
     counsel, accountants and other authorized representatives an opportunity to
     make such  reasonable  investigations  as they shall  desire to make of the
     business  of Buyer;  and Buyer  shall  cause its  officers,  employees  and
     auditors to furnish such additional  financial and operating data and other
     information as the Sellers shall from time to time reasonably request.

          (b) From time to time prior to the Closing Date,  Buyer shall promptly
     supplement  or amend  information  previously  delivered  to the  Companies
     and/or the Sellers with respect to any matter  hereafter  arising which, if
     existing  or  occurring  at the date of this  Agreement,  would  have  been
     required to be set forth herein or disclosed.

     5.2  Rule  145  Best  Efforts.  While  RQI is a  public  company  with  its
     securities  registered  under the Securities  Act, and listed or quoted for
     trading by a national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system,
     RQI  will  use  commercially  reasonable  efforts  to  see  that  RQI is in
     compliance  with the  requirements  of Rule 144  under the  Securities  Act
     applicable to the issuer of securities,  so as to facilitate non-registered
     sales of RQI Stock by the  Sellers who then own RQI Stock  consistent  with
     the  requirements  and limitations of Rule 145. Nothing in this SECTION 5.2
     shall be deemed as either (i) any  representation or warranty that RQI will
     remain a public  company with  securities  registered  under the Securities
     Act,  or (ii) any  covenant  or  agreement  by RQI to  register,  under the
     Securities Laws or otherwise, any RQI securities issued to, or held by, the
     Sellers.

     5.3 Release and  Assumption  of  Guarantees.  Buyer shall use  commercially
     reasonable efforts to have each of the Sellers released,  contemporaneously
     with the Closing  Date,  from any and all  guarantees  on any  indebtedness
     personally guaranteed by any of them and from any and all pledges of assets
     pledged by any of them to secure such  indebtedness  for the benefit of the
     Cathedral Group, with all such guarantees on indebtedness  being assumed by
     the Buyer.  In the event that Buyer cannot  obtain such  releases  from the
     lenders of any such  guaranteed  indebtedness  on the Closing  Date,  Buyer
     shall  repay all  indebtedness  of the  Cathedral  Group  relating  to such
     personal  guarantees  within 60 days after the  Closing  Date.  Buyer shall
     indemnify and hold harmless the Sellers from the payment of any  guaranties
     on any  indebtedness  or  contractual  obligations  that  the  Sellers  had
     incurred  prior to the Closing  Date  provided  that such  indebtedness  or
     obligations  are related to the  business of the  Cathedral  Group as being
     conducted at the Closing Date.

ARTICLE VI. OTHER AGREEMENTS

     6.1  Further  Assurances.  Subject  to the  terms  and  conditions  of this
     Agreement,  each of the parties  hereto shall use its best efforts to take,
     or cause to be  taken,  all  action,  and to do,  or cause to be done,  all
     things  necessary,  proper or advisable  under  applicable  Regulations  to
     consummate  and  make  effective  the 


<PAGE>



     transactions  contemplated  by this  Agreement.  If at any time  after  the
     Closing Date Buyer,  on the one hand,  or the  Sellers,  on the other hand,
     shall  consider  or be advised  that any further  agreements,  instruments,
     documents,  deeds, papers, assignments or assurances in law or in any other
     things are necessary,  desirable or proper to vest, perfect or confirm,  of
     record or otherwise,  in such party, the title to any property or rights of
     the other  acquired or to be acquired by reason of, or as a result of, this
     Agreement or any of the transactions  contemplated  herein, the other party
     agrees  that  it  or  they  shall  execute  and  deliver  all  such  proper
     agreements,   instruments,   documents,   deeds,  papers,  assignments  and
     assurances in law and do all things necessary, desirable or proper to vest,
     perfect  or  confirm  title to such  property  or rights in such  party and
     otherwise to carry out the purpose of this Agreement.

     6.2 Consents.  Without  limiting the generality of SECTION 6.1, each of the
     parties  hereto  shall use their best  efforts to obtain all Permits of all
     Persons and Authorities  necessary,  proper or advisable in connection with
     the consummation of the  transactions  contemplated by this Agreement prior
     to the  Closing  Date.  With  respect  to every  material  Contract  of the
     Cathedral  Group,  even those  Contracts for which a consent or approval is
     not  required  under the terms of such  Contract,  upon the  execution  and
     delivery of this Agreement,  each party to each such Contract shall,  after
     consultation  with and coordination by Buyer, be advised of the transaction
     contemplated hereby.

     6.3 No Termination of Sellers' Obligations by Subsequent  Incapacity,  Etc.
     Each  Seller  specifically  agrees  that  the  obligations  of such  Seller
     hereunder,  including, without limitation,  obligations pursuant to ARTICLE
     11 and SECTION 6.4 shall not be  terminated  by the death or  incapacity of
     any Seller.

     6.4  Confidentiality.  From the date hereof to and  including the Effective
     Date,  Buyer, on the one hand, and each Seller and the Cathedral  Group, on
     the other hand,  shall,  in  accordance  with that certain  confidentiality
     agreement (the  "Confidentiality  Agreement")  between Buyer and Cathedral,
     attached  hereto  as  SCHEDULE  6.4  (which  agreement  (i) the  terms  and
     conditions  of which are  incorporated  by  reference  herein and (ii) will
     terminate on the earlier of one (1) year after the execution thereof or the
     Effective  Date) cause its  principals,  officers and other  personnel  and
     authorized representatives to abide by the terms of such agreement and hold
     in  confidence,  and not  disclose  to any other  Person  without the other
     party's  prior  consent,  all written  and oral  information  furnished  or
     disclosed  by or  received  from  such  party or its  officers,  directors,
     employees, agents, counsel and auditors in connection with the transactions
     contemplated hereby except as may be contemplated therein.

     6.5 Non Competition Covenant.

          (a) Each Seller acknowledges that: (i) this Agreement includes certain
     consideration  in respect of the goodwill  associated with the operation of
     the


<PAGE>



     Restricted  Businesses  by the Sellers;  (ii) the  covenants of the Sellers
     contained in this SECTION 6.5 are a material  inducement  to Buyer to enter
     into this Agreement; (iii) Buyer and each of its Affiliates (each an "Buyer
     Entity" and  collectively,  the "Buyer  Entities")  has  expended  and will
     expend  considerable  time,  effort and capital to develop  the  Restricted
     Businesses;  and (iv)  Buyer and each of the  other  Buyer  Entities  has a
     legitimate business interest in protecting its investment in the Restricted
     Businesses and would be  irreparably  damaged if any of the Sellers were to
     breach the  covenants set forth in this SECTION 6.5.  Accordingly,  each of
     the Sellers  agrees that the  covenants  set forth in this SECTION 6.5: (i)
     are separate and independent covenants for which valuable consideration has
     been paid, the receipt,  adequacy and sufficiency of which are acknowledged
     by each Seller;  (ii) are cumulative to all other  covenants of the Sellers
     in favor of Buyer and the other Buyer Entities  contained in this Agreement
     and shall  survive  the  termination  of this  Agreement  for the  purposes
     intended;  (iii) are  reasonable  and necessary to protect and preserve the
     conduct and operation of the  Restricted  Businesses by Buyer and the other
     Buyer  Entities;  and (iv) do not impose an undue hardship upon any Seller,
     do not  unreasonably  restrict  any one of them with respect to or from the
     performance  of services of,  relating to or connected  with the Restricted
     Businesses,  the management  thereof or otherwise,  and are reasonable with
     respect to their duration, geographical area and scope.

          (b) Each  Seller  covenants  and agrees  that,  during the  Restricted
     Period, he or she shall not, directly or indirectly,  either  individually,
     in partnership, jointly or in conjunction with any other Person, whether as
     principal,  agent, officer,  director,  shareholder,  owner, partner, joint
     venturer, manager, employee, independent contractor,  consultant,  advisor,
     sales representative or any other capacity whatsoever:

          (i) engage,  in any Restricted  Business in competition  with Buyer or
any other Buyer Entity within the Restricted Territory;

          (ii) solicit,  interfere with,  disturb,  or seek to interfere with or
disturb the relationship  with  (contractual or otherwise) any Person who is, at
that time,  or who has been within one (1) year prior to that time,  an employee
of any Buyer  Entity for the  purpose or with the intent of inducing or enticing
such employee away from or out of the employ of any Buyer Entity;

          (iii)  employ  or  otherwise   engage  as  an  employee,   independent
contractor,  consultant or any capacity  whatsoever,  any Person employed by any
Buyer Entity in the Restricted Territory;

          (iv) solicit,  interfere with,  disturb,  or seek to interfere with or
disturb the relationship with (contractual or otherwise) any Person which is, at
that time,  or which has been within one (1) year prior to that time, a customer
or  supplier  of any Buyer  Entity  for the  purpose  of  soliciting  or selling
products or services in competition  with any


<PAGE>



Buyer  Entity  within the  Restricted  Territory  or inducing  such  customer or
supplier to cease doing business with any Buyer Entity; or

          (v) solicit,  interfere  with,  disturb,  or seek to interfere with or
disturb  the  relationship  with  (contractual  or  otherwise)  any  prospective
acquisition  candidate,  on  such  Seller's  own  behalf  or on  behalf  of  any
competitor  or  potential  competitor,  which  candidate  was, to such  Seller's
Knowledge,  either called upon by any Buyer Entity or for which any Buyer Entity
made an acquisition analysis, for the purpose of acquiring such entity.

          Notwithstanding  the above, the foregoing covenant shall not be deemed
to prohibit any Seller from acquiring as an investment not more than two percent
(2%) of the capital  stock of a competing  business,  whose stock is traded on a
national securities exchange or over-the-counter.

          (c) In recognition of the substantial nature of such potential damages
     and the  difficulty of measuring  economic  losses to any Buyer Entity as a
     result of a breach of the foregoing covenants, and because of the immediate
     and  irreparable  damage that could be caused to any such Buyer  Entity for
     which it would have no other  adequate  remedy,  each Seller agrees that in
     the event of breach by such Seller of the  foregoing  covenant,  such Buyer
     Entity  shall be entitled to specific  performance  of this  provision  and
     co-injunctive  and other  equitable  relief,  and that each  Seller will be
     responsible  for the payment of court costs and reasonable  attorneys' fees
     incurred by such Buyer Entity in  successfully  obtaining the relief sought
     in  connection  with the  enforcement  of the  covenants  set forth in this
     SECTION 6.5.

          (d) It is the intent of Buyer and the Sellers  that the  covenants  in
     this  SECTION 6.5  applicable  to any of the Sellers  that are  employed or
     engaged as a consultant by any of the Cathedral  Group  companies after the
     Effective Date be construed and enforced,  as to the Restricted  Territory,
     in  accordance  with the  changing  locations  of the Buyer  Entities  with
     respect  to  the  Restricted  Businesses,  before  and as of  the  date  of
     termination  of the employment or consulting  relationship  of such Seller.
     For example,  if, during the Restricted  Period, a Buyer Entity establishes
     new locations for one or more of the  Restricted  Businesses in addition to
     its  existing  locations  established  therefor,  then such  Seller will be
     precluded  from  soliciting  the customers or employees of such  Restricted
     Business  from such new  location  and from  directly  competing  with such
     Restricted  Business  within  a 100  mile  radius  of its  then-established
     operating location(s) through the balance of the Restricted Period.

          (e) The covenants in this SECTION 6.5 are severable and separate,  and
     the  unenforceability  of  any  specific  covenant  shall  not  affect  the
     provisions  of any  other  covenant.  Moreover,  in the  event any court of
     competent  jurisdiction shall determine that the scope, time or territorial
     restrictions  set forth are  unreasonable,  then it is the intention of the
     parties that such  restrictions be enforced to the fullest


<PAGE>



     extent  which  the  court  deems  reasonable,  and the  Agreement  shall be
     reformed in accordance therewith.

          (f) All of the  covenants in this SECTION 6.5 shall be construed as an
     agreement  independent of any other  provision in this  Agreement,  and the
     existence  of any claim or cause of action of any Seller  against any Buyer
     Entity,  whether  predicated  on this  Agreement  or  otherwise,  shall not
     constitute  a  defense  to the  enforcement  by any  Buyer  Entity  of such
     covenants.  Further,  this  SECTION  6.5 shall  survive the Closing and the
     termination  of such  Seller's  employment  with  an  Buyer  Entity.  It is
     specifically agreed that the Restricted Period, during which the agreements
     and  covenants of the Sellers made in this SECTION 6.5 shall be  effective,
     shall be computed by excluding from such  computation any time during which
     such Seller is in violation of any provision of this SECTION 6.5.

          (g) Any or all of the Sellers may (i) develop Properties and (ii) act,
     or continue to act, as real estate  brokers on behalf of one or more of the
     Buyer Entities,  pursuant to the terms of a standard brokerage agreement in
     effect from time to time.

     6.6 Non-disclosure; Confidentiality.

          (a) Confidential  Information.  By virtue of each Seller's employment,
     or engagement  hereafter as a consultant,  association or involvement  with
     the  Cathedral  Group  and any due  diligence  with  respect  to the  Buyer
     Entities,   each  Seller  has  obtained  and  may  obtain  confidential  or
     proprietary  information  developed,  or to be developed,  by the Cathedral
     Group and an Buyer Entity. "Confidential Information" means all proprietary
     or  business  sensitive  information,  whether in oral,  written,  graphic,
     machine-readable  or  tangible  form,  and whether or not  registered,  and
     including all notes, plans, records,  documents and other evidence thereof,
     including but not limited to all: patents, patent applications, copyrights,
     trademarks, trade names, service marks, service names, "know-how," customer
     lists,  details  of  client  or  consulting  contracts,  pricing  policies,
     operational  methods,  marketing plans or strategies,  product  development
     techniques  or plans,  procurement  and  sales  activities,  promotion  and
     pricing  techniques,   credit  and  financial  data  concerning  customers,
     business  acquisition  plans or any portion or phase of any  scientific  or
     technical information,  discoveries,  computer software or programs used or
     developed  in whole or in part by the  Cathedral  Group or any Buyer Entity
     (including  source or object  codes),  processes,  procedures,  formulas or
     improvements  of the  Cathedral  Group  or any  Buyer  Entity;  algorithms;
     computer  processing systems and techniques;  price lists;  customer lists;
     procedures; improvements, concepts and ideas; business plans and proposals;
     technical  plans and  proposals;  research  and  development;  budgets  and
     projections;   technical   memoranda,   research   reports,   designs   and
     specifications; new product and service developments;  comparative analyses
     of  competitive  products,  services and  operating  procedures;  and other
     information,  data and  documents  now  existing  or later  acquired by the
     Cathedral Group or any


<PAGE>


     Buyer  Entity,  regardless  of  whether  any of such  information,  data or
     documents  qualify as a "trade  secret" under  applicable  Federal or State
     law.  "Confidential  Information"  shall not include:  (a) any  information
     which becomes  generally  available to the public other than as a result of
     disclosure by any Seller or any relative,  agent or representative thereof;
     (b)  becomes  available  to any Seller on a  non-confidential  basis from a
     source  other than the  Cathedral  Group or any Buyer  Entity or any of its
     respective employees, agents or representatives,  provided that such source
     lawfully  obtained such  information and is not bound by a  confidentiality
     agreement with the Cathedral Group or any Buyer Entity;  or (c) is required
     to be  disclosed  by law  provided,  that if such Seller is required by law
     (including,  without limitation,  any judicial or administrative proceeding
     or  any  governmental  or  regulatory  authority)  to  disclose  any of the
     Confidential  Information,  Seller shall provide Buyer with prompt  written
     notice of any such  requirement  and shall  cooperate in full with Buyer to
     obtain a  protective  order or to pursue an action to obtain a waiver  from
     such requirement. If, in the absence of a protective order or other remedy,
     Seller is nonetheless,  in the written opinion of Seller's outside counsel,
     legally compelled to disclose Confidential Information, Seller may, without
     liability hereunder disclose the Confidential Information,  provided, that,
     (i) Seller  gives  Buyer  prior  written  notice of the  information  to be
     disclosed, (ii) only discloses that portion of the Confidential Information
     which Seller's  counsel  advises is legally  required to be disclosed,  and
     (iii) Seller use his or her best  efforts to preserve  the  confidentiality
     thereof by obtaining reasonable assurance that confidential  treatment will
     be accorded the Confidential Information.

          (b) Non-Disclosure. Each Seller agrees that, he or she will not at any
     time, without the prior express written authorization of Buyer, disclose to
     any Person or use any Confidential  Information  whatsoever for any purpose
     whatsoever,  or permit any Person  whatsoever to examine and/or make copies
     of any reports or any  documents  or software  (whether in written  form or
     stored on magnetic,  optical or other mass storage  media) which contain or
     are derived from any Confidential  Information.  Each Seller further agrees
     that, no Confidential Information shall be removed from the premises of the
     Cathedral  Group or any Buyer  Entity,  without the prior  express  written
     consent of such entity.

          (c) Buyer Group Property.  As used in this Agreement,  the term "Buyer
     Group Property" means all documents,  papers, computer printouts and disks,
     records,  customer or customer lists, files,  manuals,  supplies,  computer
     hardware and software,  equipment,  inventory and other materials that have
     been created,  used or obtained by the Cathedral Group or any Buyer Entity,
     or otherwise  belonging to the Cathedral Group or any Buyer Entity, as well
     as any other  materials  containing  Confidential  Information  as  defined
     above. Each Seller recognizes and agrees that:

          (i) All Buyer Group  Property  shall be and remain the property of the
Buyer Entity to which such property belongs;


<PAGE>



          (ii) Each Seller will preserve, use and hold Buyer Group Property only
for the  benefit of Buyer and its  Affiliates  and to carry out the  business of
Buyer and its Affiliates; and

          (iii) Except as to those Sellers employed by an Buyer Entity after the
Closing and subject to a confidentiality agreement with such entity, each Seller
will  immediately  deliver  and  surrender  to Buyer all Buyer  Group  Property,
including all copies,  extracts or any other types of reproductions,  which such
Seller has in his possession or control.

     6.7 Buyer Stock Option Plan. After the Effective Date, Buyer shall award to
     certain  key  employees  of the  Cathedral  Group  identified  prior to the
     Closing, whom will be retained and employed by Buyer, non-qualified options
     to  purchase  shares  of RQI  Stock  in an  aggregate  amount  for all such
     employees equal to three percent (3%) of the Purchase Price, subject to the
     terms and  conditions  of the Buyer  1998 Long  Term  Incentive  Plan.  The
     options  would  vest 25% per year  beginning  on the first  anniversary  of
     employment with Buyer and each annual anniversary  thereafter up to 100% on
     the fourth anniversary thereof.

     6.8  Retention  Bonuses to certain  Cathedral  Employees.  Within three (3)
     business  days after the Effective  Date,  Buyer shall pay to the Cathedral
     employees  set  forth on  SCHEDULE  6.8 the  respective  amounts  set forth
     opposite such employees' names, as one-time bonuses intended to induce such
     employees to remain in their respective current positions.

     6.9  Subsequent  Controlled  Affiliate  Properties.  In the event  that the
     Sellers or Affliates of the Sellers,  within the Restricted Period, acquire
     interests,  directly or  indirectly,  in  Properties  which fall within the
     definition of Controlled Affiliate  Properties,  the Sellers agree to cause

     applicable law.

     on or before  such  date,  such  party  may not  terminate  this  Agreement
     pursuant to this  SECTION  9.1(b),  and each other party to this  Agreement

     under this Agreement; or

     Agreement.

     9.2 Procedure Upon Termination. In the event of termination and abandonment
     pursuant to SECTION 9.1 hereof,  and subject to the provision  contained in
     SECTION  9.1(b),  this  Agreement  shall  terminate and shall be abandoned,

          (a) each party shall redeliver all documents and other material of any
     other  party  relating to the  transactions  contemplated  hereby,  whether
     obtained before or after the execution  hereof, to the party furnishing the
     same;

          (b) all  information  received by any party hereto with respect to the
     business of any other party or the Cathedral Group (other than  information
     which is a matter of public  knowledge or which has  heretofore  been or is
     hereafter  published in any publication for public distribution or filed as
     public  information with any governmental  authority) shall not at any time
     be used for the  advantage of, or disclosed to third parties by, such party
     to the detriment of the party furnishing such information; and


<PAGE>



          (c) no party hereto shall have any further  liability or obligation to

     together  with  any  interest  accrued  thereon  but net of all  costs  and
     expenses of the Interim  Escrow Agent,  shall be paid over and delivered by
     the Interim  Escrow Agent to the  Sellers,  in the  respective  amounts set
     forth on SCHEDULE 1.2, it being the intent of the parties  hereto that this
     be the sole  remedy for any damages  incurred by the Sellers in  connection
     with  the  termination  of this  Agreement  by Buyer  in  reliance  on such
     Section;  provided,  however,  that no termination  hereof shall operate to
     terminate the Confidentiality Agreement.

ARTICLE X. SURVIVAL OF TERMS; INDEMNIFICATION

     10.1 Survival; Knowledge.

          (a) All of the terms and conditions of this  Agreement,  together with
     the  representations,  warranties and covenants  contained herein or in any
     instrument  or  document  delivered  or to be  delivered  pursuant  to this
     Agreement,  shall survive the  execution of this  Agreement and the Closing
     notwithstanding  any  investigation  heretofore or hereafter  made by or on
     behalf of any party hereto; provided,  however, that (i) the agreements and
     covenants set forth in this Agreement  shall survive and continue until all
     obligations set forth therein shall have been performed and satisfied;  and
     (ii) all  representations  and warranties  shall survive and continue until
     one year from the  Effective  Date (the  "Anniversary  Date"),  except  for
     representations  and  warranties  for  which  a claim  for  indemnification
     hereunder  (an  "Indemnification   Claim")  shall  be  pending  as  of  the
     Anniversary Date, in which event such  representations and warranties shall
     survive  with  respect  to  such  Indemnification  Claim  until  the  final
     disposition thereof.

          (b) The right to  indemnification,  payment of damages or other remedy
     based on such representations,  warranties, covenants, and obligations will
     not be  affected by any  investigation  conducted  with  respect to, or any
     knowledge  acquired  (or capable of being  acquired)  at any time,  whether
     before  or after  the  execution  and  delivery  of this  Agreement  or the
     Effective Date, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance
     with, any such  representation,  warranty,  covenant,  or  obligation.  The
     waiver of any  condition  based on the


<PAGE>



     accuracy of any  representation  or warranty,  or on the  performance of or
     compliance  with any covenant or  obligation,  will not affect the right to
     indemnification,  payment  of  damages,  or  other  remedy  based  on  such
     representations, warranties, covenants, and obligations.

     10.2  Indemnification  by the Sellers.  Subject to this ARTICLE 10, Sellers

          (a) Any  misrepresentation,  breach of warranty,  or nonfulfillment of
     any covenant or other obligation on the part of any Seller or the Companies

     any  certificate,  schedule,  other  agreement or  instrument by any of the
     Sellers or the Companies hereunder;

          (b) Any  conduct,  action or  inaction  of any of the  Sellers  or the

     Date or any circumstance related to the operation,  management or ownership
     of the Cathedral Group on or prior to the Effective Date,  whether known or
     unknown on the Effective Date;

          (c) Any and all  liabilities  of the  Cathedral  Group  of any  nature

penalties or interest are attributable;

          (ii) All  environmental  liabilities  relating to any of the Cathedral

     (including, without limitation, the fees and expenses of counsel) resulting
     from, or in respect of: (i) any  misrepresentation,  breach of warranty, or
     nonfulfillment  of any  covenant or other  obligation  on the part of Buyer

     Cathedral Group after the Effective Date.

     10.4 Third Party Claims.

          (a) Except as  otherwise  provided in this  Agreement,  the  following
     procedures  shall be applicable with respect to  indemnification  for third
     party Claims.  Promptly after receipt by the party seeking  indemnification
     hereunder  (hereinafter  referred to as the  "Indemnitee") of notice of the
     commencement  of any (a) Tax audit or proceeding  for the assessment of Tax
     by any taxing  authority  or any other  proceeding  likely to result in the
     imposition  of a Tax  liability  or  obligation,  or (b) any  action or the
     assertion of any Claim,  liability or obligation by a third party  (whether
     by  legal  process  or  otherwise),   against  which  Claim,  liability  or
     obligation the other party to this Agreement (hereinafter the "Indemnitor")
     is, or may be, required under this Agreement to indemnify such  Indemnitee,
     the  Indemnitee  will, if a Claim thereon is to be, or may be, made against
     the  Indemnitor,  notify the Indemnitor in writing of the  commencement  or
     assertion thereof and give the Indemnitor a copy of such Claim, process and
     all legal pleadings.  The Indemnitor shall have the right to participate in
     the  defense  of such  action  with  counsel  of  reputable  standing.  The
     Indemnitor shall have the right to assume the defense of such action unless
     such action (i) may result in  injunctions or other  equitable  remedies in
     respect of the  Indemnitee or its business;  (ii) may result in liabilities
     which,  taken with other then existing  Claims under this ARTICLE 10, would
     not be fully indemnified hereunder;  or (iii) may have


<PAGE>



     an adverse impact on the business or financial  condition of the Indemnitee
     after the  Effective  Date  (including  an  effect on the Tax  liabilities,
     earnings  or  ongoing  business  relationships  of  the  Indemnitee).   The
     Indemnitor  and the  Indemnitee  shall  cooperate  in the  defense  of such
     Claims.  In the case that the Indemnitor shall assume or participate in the
     defense of such audit,  assessment or other  proceeding as provided herein,
     the Indemnitee  shall make available to the Indemnitor all relevant records
     and take such other  action and sign such  documents  as are  necessary  to
     defend such audit, assessment or other proceeding in a timely manner.

          (b) Upon  judgment,  determination,  settlement  or  compromise of any
     third  party  Claim,  the  Indemnitor  shall pay  promptly on behalf of the
     Indemnitee,  and/or  to the  Indemnitee  in  reimbursement  of  any  amount
     theretofore  required  to be  paid  by it,  the  amount  so  determined  by
     judgment, determination,  settlement or compromise, unless in the case of a
     judgment an appeal is made from the judgment,  plus all other Claims of the
     Indemnitee with respect thereto (including legal fees and expenses). If the
     Indemnitor desires to appeal from an adverse judgment,  then the Indemnitor
     shall post and pay the cost of the  security or bond to stay  execution  of
     the judgment pending appeal.  Upon the payment in full by the Indemnitor of
     such  amounts,   the  Indemnitor  shall  succeed  to  the  rights  of  such
     Indemnitee, to the extent not waived in settlement, against the third party
     who made such third party Claim.

          (c) Prior to paying or settling any Claim  against which an Indemnitor
     is, or may be,  obligated  under this Agreement to indemnify an Indemnitee,
     the  Indemnitee  must first  supply the  Indemnitor  with a copy of a final
     court  judgment or decree  holding the  Indemnitee  liable on such claim or
     failing  such  judgment  or decree,  and must  first  receive  the  written
     approval  of  the  terms  and  conditions  of  such   settlement  from  the
     Indemnitor.  An Indemnitor shall have the right to settle any Claim against
     it or as to which it has assumed the defense,  subject to the prior written
     approval  of the  Indemnitee,  which  approval  shall  not be  unreasonably
     withheld provided that such settlement involves only the payment of a fixed
     sum which the  Indemnitor  is  obligated  to pay and does not  include  any
     admission of liability  or other such similar  admissions  by or related to
     Indemnitee with respect to such Claim.

          (d) An  Indemnitee  shall have the right to employ its own  counsel in
     any case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense
     of the  Indemnitee  unless:  (i) the  employment of such counsel shall have
     been authorized in writing by the Indemnitor in connection with the defense
     of such action or Claim; (ii) the Indemnitor shall not have employed, or is
     prohibited  under this SECTION 10.4 from employing,  counsel in the defense
     of such action or Claim;  or (iii) such  Indemnitee  shall have  reasonably
     concluded that there may be defenses available to it which are contrary to,
     or inconsistent  with,  those available to the Indemnitor,  in any of which
     events such fees and expenses of not more than one  additional  counsel for
     the indemnified parties shall be borne by the Indemnitor.


<PAGE>



     10.5 Limitation on Indemnification.

          (a)  None  of  the  Buyer   Indemnified   Parties   shall  assert  any
     Indemnification Claim hereunder against the Sellers until such time as, and
     solely to the extent  that,  the  aggregate  of all such claims  which such
     parties may have  against the Sellers  shall exceed two percent (2%) of the
     value of the Closing Stock  Consideration  (the  "Sellers'  Indemnification
     Threshold"),  provided,  however,  that the Buyer  Indemnified  Parties may
     assert and shall be indemnified for any claim set forth in SCHEDULE 10.5(a)
     at any time,  regardless  of whether the  aggregate of all  Indemnification

     Buyer  Stock to satisfy  any  indemnification  obligation  hereunder,  such
     Seller  shall  satisfy  the  remaining  amount of such  obligation  by cash
     payment to Buyer.  To secure  the  obligations  of the  Sellers

     to make any  payments  required  hereunder,  at the Closing the Sellers and
     Buyer will enter into the Escrow  Agreement.  At any time that Buyer  shall
     make any Indemnification Claim against any or all of the Sellers, Buyer may
     simultaneously  therewith or at any time  thereafter  give the Escrow Agent
     notice under the Escrow Agreement  pursuant to the terms set forth therein.
     Buyer shall not be limited in recovery to the amount of Buyer Stock held by
     the Escrow Agent and may, at their election,  proceed to recover the amount
     of any  Indemnification  Claim owed by the Sellers  from the  Sellers,  the
     Escrow Agent or both.

          (b) In the event  that a Seller  (i) is or may be deemed to be covered
     by  Section  16 of the  Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934,  and (ii) has an
     indemnification  obligation  which such Seller  desires to pay in shares of
     Buyer Stock  hereunder  has,  within six months prior to the time that such
     obligation  arises,  purchased any shares of Buyer Stock, such Seller shall
     be entitled to delay payment of his  indemnification  obligation  hereunder
     until  after six  months  have  passed  from the date of the last  purchase
     preceding the date on which the obligation  arose if as a condition to such
     postponement  such Seller provides  security for his  obligations  which is
     reasonably satisfactory to Buyer.

     10.7 Survival of Indemnification.  These  indemnification  provisions shall
     survive the  termination or other  expiration of this  Agreement  until the
     first anniversary of the Effective Date,  except for those  Indemnification
     Claims which shall be pending as of the first  anniversary of the Effective
     Date,  in  which  event,  such  Indemnification   Claims  and  the  related
     indemnification  provisions  shall  survive  until  the  final  disposition

waived by the Borrower.

     No delay or omission  on the part of the holder of this Note in  exercising
any right  hereunder  shall operate as a waiver of such right or of any right of

disbursement  or other payment of any kind or character out of the  compensation

RQI Group Companies,  each of their  respective  subsidiaries and affiliates and
their  directors,   officers,  and  employees  from  any  and  all  liabilities,
obligations,  claims, penalties, fines or losses resulting from any unauthorized

Section 8. NO PRIOR AGREEMENTS.

any oral or written  agreement  with, or other duty owed to, a former  employer,
client or any other Person. Further,  Consultant agrees to indemnify the Company
from and against any and all claims, judgments,  fines, actions, suits, demands,
charges,  costs and expenses  including but not limited to  attorneys'  fees and
expenses  (collectively,  "Claims"),  (i)  relating  to,  arising  from,  or  in
connection  with any  actions by  Consultant  outside  the scope of  Consultants
duties  hereunder  or as  directed by the  Company  Board,  the RQI Board or any
Executive  Officer  or (ii) any  breach  by  Consultant  of any oral or  written
agreement  between  Consultant  and any third  party or any  other  duty owed by
Consultant to any third party.

Section 9. ASSIGNMENT; BINDING EFFECT.

more  strictly  construed  against the party that itself,  or through its agent,
prepared  the  same,  and it is  expressly  agreed  and  acknowledged  that  the
Consultant,  the  Company  and  their  respective  representatives,   legal  and
otherwise, have participated in the preparation hereof.

Mr. James S. Olin

Dear Jim:

This  confirms  that  ResortQuest  International  has  received and approves the
attached  real  estate  transactions  and  the  commission  arrangements for the
specific transactions indicated therein.

I want to reiterate  that the  currently  contemplated  management of the retail
portion of the Gulf Place complex, now under construction, will not constitute a
violation  of the Non-Competition  provisions  of either  the  Stock  Purchase
Agreement or any Consulting Agreements.

I am looking forward to working with you.

Best regards,


/s/ W. Michael Murphy
