PART I.     Financial Information



Item 1.     Financial Statements

       The consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared
by the registrant, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain information and footnote 
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance 
with generally accepted accounting principles have been consolidated or omitted 
pursuant to such rules and regulations; however, the registrant believes that 
the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.  
It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in 
conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in 
the registrant's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended 
December 31, 1994.

       The consolidated financial statements for the interim periods included
herein, which are unaudited, include, in the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present
fairly the financial position and results of operations of the registrant for 
the periods presented.  The results of operations for interim periods should 
not be considered indicative of results to be expected for the full year.

  (b)  Hilcoast


  The Term Loan and the Lines of Credit are principally collateralized by 
certain residential and commercial real estate at the Century Village at 
Pembroke Pines, Florida adult condominium project ("Century Village"), 
including the recreation facilities at Century Village (the "Pembroke 
Recreation Facilities"). 


            Term Loan

  The Term Loan bears interest at prime (8.75% at September 30, 1995) plus 
3%, but in any event not less than 9% nor more than 11%, matures on July 31,
1998, and currently requires monthly interest payments only.  Upon the earlier 
to occur of delivery of the last unit at Century Village or July 31, 1998, 
the Term Loan is scheduled to be converted to an 11%, fixed rate, 25 year, $25 
million, self-amortizing loan providing for equal monthly payments of principal 
and interest (the "Permanent Loan").  The Permanent Loan may not be prepaid by 
Hilcoast without a prepayment penalty and will be collateralized by a first 
mortgage on the Pembroke Recreation Facilities.  

            Lines of Credit

  The Lines of Credit consist of revolving construction loan commitments 
aggregating $17 million, including $4 million approved on August 11, 1995.  The 
Lines of Credit bear interest, payable monthly, ranging from prime plus 3%, but 
in any event not less than 9% nor more than 11%, to 12.5%, mature from November 
1996 through July 1998, provide for commitment fees ranging from .9% to 1.8% 
per annum on the unused portion of the Lines of Credit, and require specific 
release prices, principally based on sales of condominium apartments at Century 
Village, to be applied as permanent reductions of amounts available under the 
Lines of Credit.  
 
            Other

  Included in Other is $5 million which arose effective March 31, 1995, in 
connection with the redemption by Hilcoast of the $5 million Hilcoast Preferred 
Stock owned by the Company.  As consideration, Hilcoast issued a $5 million 
note, payable July 31, 1998, with interest at 10%, collateralized by the 
Pembroke Recreation Facilities.  The remaining notes mature variously through
July 31, 1998 and bear interest, ranging from prime plus 1.5% through 12%.

(2)  Collateralized Mortgage Obligations (CMO's)


  The CMO's bear interest at an effective rate of 8.84%, are collateralized by 
the Recreation Notes (Note 1(a)) and require quarterly self-amortizing principal
and interest payments through March 15, 2007.



(3)  Commitments and Contingencies


  (a)   TGI Development, Inc. ("TGI")

  In February 1994, a Final Judgment was granted in favor of the Company, which
dismissed TGI's claim of common law fraud against the Company and struck its 
punitive damage claim.  TGI sought compensatory damages of approximately $2 
million pursuant to the common law fraud count.  In accordance with an agreement
between the parties, in August 1994 the Court entered a judgment in the amount 
of $1.1 million in favor of the Company in connection with a counterclaim filed 
by the Company against TGI.  The Company has agreed not to attempt execution on
that judgment until completion of TGI's appeal of the Final Judgment on its 
claim for compensatory damages.  Although the Company believes it has 
substantial defenses, the ultimate outcome of this litigation cannot
presently be determined.  Accordingly, no provision for any liability that may
result upon final adjudication has been made in the accompanying financial 
statements.  In addition, since the collectibility of the $1.1 million judgment 
is doubtful, it has not been reflected as an asset in the Company's financial 
statements.  In management's opinion, the final outcome of this litigation will
not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition.



  (b)  Century Plaza 

  On December 5, 1994, a Complaint, as amended, was filed in the Circuit Court 
of Broward County, Florida, against the Company seeking a judicial declaration 
as to the Plaintiff's obligation to provide parking areas to members of a 
religious institution located  adjacent to a shopping center ("Century Plaza") 
in Deerfield Beach, Florida, acquired by the Plaintiff from the Company for $8
million in 1989.   The basis for the Complaint is that the Company failed to 
advise the Plaintiff that in 1978, a former officer of the Company had allegedly
consented to a limited number of parking spaces to be allocated to the religious
institution.


<PAGE> 11



  Should the Court determine that the institution has  parking rights, the 
Plaintiff seeks recision of the original sales agreement and the purchase money 
mortgage  note held by the Company in connection with the sale of Century Plaza,
which has an outstanding principal balance of $6.3 million (the "Century Plaza 
Note").  The Plaintiff also seeks restoration of amounts paid by the Plaintiff 
to the Company pursuant to the sales agreement, plus interest thereon, and 
reconveyance of Century Plaza to the Company.

  The Century Plaza Note was not paid on its December 31, 1994 maturity date and
the Company has  instituted foreclosure proceedings.  The Plaintiff has been 
remitting monthly payments to the Company during 1995.   The Company believes it
has substantial defenses to the Complaint; however, the proceedings have just 
recently commenced and the final outcome of this litigation cannot be 
determined.  In management's opinion, the ultimate decision in this matter will 
not have a material adverse effect on the Company's future operations. 




(4) Consulting and Advisory Agreement with Hilcoast

  Hilcoast provides certain investment advisory, consulting and administrative 
services to the Company under a consulting and advisory agreement, excluding 
matters relating to Hilcoast's loans from the Company.  The agreement, which 
expires on July 31, 1996, provides for the payment of $10,000 per month to 
Hilcoast, plus reimbursement for all out of pocket expenses, and may be
terminated by Hilcoast upon 180 days notice and by the Company upon 30 days 
notice.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of
   Results of Operations and Financial Condition


                          Results of Operations

Funds From Operations

  The Company's Funds From Operations generally consists of net income, 
excluding reversal of previously recorded losses and gains or losses on 
disposition of investments, plus depreciation of real property (including the
Company's share of depreciation in connection with its equity in earnings
of unconsolidated partnerships).

  Funds From Operations for the quarter ended September 30, 1995, was $2,215,000
compared to $2,126,000 for the same quarter of 1994.

  For the nine months ended September 30, 1995, Funds From Operations amounted 
to $6,444,000 compared to $6,351,000 for the corresponding period of 1994.

  Funds From Operations reflects a slight increase in net interest income during
the 1995 periods.  Although there was a $386,000 reduction in net interest 
income during the current nine month period resulting from the sale of the 
Company's leveraged GNMA certificate portfolio in April 1994, this reduction was
substantially offset by an increase in interest income earned on the Company's
variable rate mortgage notes receivable, primarily due to increases in the prime
rate.

  During each of the quarters ended September 30, 1995 and 1994, the Company 
declared cash dividends of $.27 per share which approximates the Company's Funds
From Operations during those periods.


Net Income

  During the quarter ended September 30, 1995, net income was $2,136,000 as 
compared to $2,240,000 for the corresponding quarter in 1994.

   Net income rose to $6,210,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 1995
compared to $3,970,000 for the same period of 1994.

  The nine month period in 1994 includes a $2.4 million loss on the 
aforementioned sale of the Company's GNMA certificate portfolio and a write-off
of $133,000 of unamortized deferred financing costs in connection with a bank 
loan prepaid during the first quarter of 1994.  Net income for the three months
and nine months ended September 30, 1994 also includes income of $200,000 and
$400,000, respectively, from the reversal of previously recorded losses.


<PAGE> 13


                     Liquidity and Capital Resources


  At September 30, 1995, total assets were $121 million, including $99.7 million
in real estate mortgage notes.  Approximately $43.5 million of the real estate 
mortgage notes provide for self-amortizing, equal monthly installment payments 
through 2012 and are collateralized by recreation facilities under long-term 
leases with the approximately 22,000 unit owners at Century Village adult
condominium communities at West Palm Beach, Deerfield Beach and Boca Raton, 
Florida ("Recreation Notes").  The operations of these facilities historically 
have been profitable and, in the Company's opinion, are not likely to be 
affected by adverse economic conditions.

  The remaining $56.2 million of real estate mortgage notes are collateralized 
by residential and commercial real estate, generally in southeast Florida, 
including $47.6 million due from Hilcoast Development Corp. ("Hilcoast"), 
principally collateralized by certain real estate at the Century Village
at Pembroke Pines adult condominium community in Broward County, Florida 
("Century Village"), including the recreation facilities located at Century 
Village.  Of this amount, $22.6 million matures through July 1998 and the 
remaining $25 million is scheduled to be converted by July 1998 to a 25
year, 11%, self-amortizing loan providing for equal monthly installment payments
of principal and interest, collateralized by a first mortgage on the recreation 
facilities at Century Village.  At September 30, 1995, 6,564 units had been sold
and delivered at the planned 7,780 unit Century Village and the backlog of units
under contract for future delivery was 226 units with a sales value of $17
million.

  Collections on the Company's real estate mortgage notes may be affected by the
future success of the projects which collateralize these notes, which may, in 
turn, be affected by conditions in the housing and commercial real estate 
markets.

  Operating funds are currently generated from interest income on mortgage notes
and rentals from income producing properties, including distributions from self-
storage warehouse partnerships. Dividend payments to stockholders, in accordance
with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code pertaining to real estate 
investment trusts, limit the Company from utilizing significant amounts of
income-generated funds for investment purposes.

  At September 30, 1995, the outstanding balance of the Company's Collateralized
Mortgage Obligations (the "CMO's") amounted to $37.5 million (net of unamortized
discount of $987,000 based on an effective interest rate of 8.84%).  The CMO's 
are collateralized by the Recreation Notes and require self-amortizing principal
and interest payments through March 2007.  During the term of the CMO's, the 
Company's scheduled annual debt service requirement approximates $5.2 million 
compared to annual principal and interest payments scheduled to be received 
under the Recreation Notes of $6.5 million.


<PAGE> 14


  In the past several years, the Company's only new loan commitments have been 
in connection with its existing borrowers. In an effort to realize increased 
yields, with minimal risk, on funds received from the repayment of existing 
mortgage notes, during 1995 the Company made certain short-term investments in 
connection with notes due by Hilcoast to unrelated third parties, totaling $4.7 
million.  In addition, during the quarter ended September 30, 1995, the Company 
approved an additional $4 million line of credit to Hilcoast (see Note 1(b)
to the Consolidated Financial Statements), the Company's only new loan 
commitment during the quarter.  The Company has generally reinvested its other 
available funds in high quality short-term corporate and government securities. 
The Company expects to pursue this strategy while it continues to evaluate 
alternative real estate investments.

  At September 30, 1995, the Company's commitments on outstanding real estate 
loans consisted of $2.9 million under the Hilcoast Lines of Credit.  There are 
currently no material commitments for capital expenditures.



                                    Inflation


  As of September 30, 1995, the Company had no variable interest rate 
borrowings; however, the Company's interest-sensitive mortgage notes receivable
amounted to approximately $38 million.  Of this amount, the interest rate on 
approximately $34 million is limited to the lower of 11% or prime plus 3%.  As 
of September 30, 1995, the interest rate on those notes had reached the 11% 
ceiling; accordingly, in the event of inflation, even if such inflation is 
accompanied by rising interest rates, the effect on the Company's results of 
operations is not expected to be material.

     VIII. Transfer of Note, Etc.  The Payee may transfer this
Note and deliver to the transferee(s) all or any of the property

person liable on or with respect to this Note may be released --
all without notice to or further reservations of rights against
the Maker, any endorser, surety or guarantor and all without in
any way affecting or releasing the liability of the Maker, any
endorser, surety or guarantor, and (b) none of the terms or
provisions hereof may be waived, altered, modified or amended
except as the Payee may consent thereto in writing.

     X.   Expenses, Etc.   The Maker hereby agrees to pay all

without deduction for or on account of any present or future
taxes, duties or other charges levied or imposed on this Note,
the proceeds hereof, or on the Maker or holder hereof by any
government, or any instrumentality, authority or political
subdivision thereof.  The Maker agrees, upon the request of the
Payee, to pay all such taxes (other than taxes on or measured by
net income of the holder thereof), duties, and other charges in
addition to the principal and interest evidenced by this Note.

     XII. Maximum Interest Rate, Etc.  Nothing contained in this
Note or in any other document, instrument or agreement between
the parties hereto shall be deemed to establish or require the

twenty-four and five-tenths percent (24.5%) per annum or (b) the
maximum lending rate now or at any time hereafter permitted to be
charged on similar loans or extensions of credit made by any
lender or creditor in the State of Florida ("Maximum Rate").  In
the event that the rate of interest so contracted to be paid
should exceed the Maximum Rate, whether as a result of its terms,
or as a result of fluctuation, acceleration of the maturity
hereof or otherwise, the rate of interest to be paid hereunder
shall be automatically reduced to the Maximum Rate and so much of
any interest reserved, charged or taken as would cause the same
to exceed the Maximum Rate shall be deemed not to be a credit
against interest but rather a payment on account of and be
automatically credited against outstanding principal evidenced
hereby regardless of how the same may appear on the Payee's or
the Maker's books or records or any memoranda of whatever nature
evidencing the same; provided, however, no such application shall
operate to cure or as a waiver of any event of default
occasioning acceleration.

     XIII. Default Rate, Etc.   Following the occurrence and
during the continuance of any default hereunder, accrued interest
and outstanding principal shall bear interest at an annual rate
equal to the lesser of:

          (a)  the maximum lending rate then permitted under
Florida law;  or

          (b)  the greater of:

               (i)   the "Wall Street Journal Prime Rate" (as
said term is hereinafter defined) plus five percent (5%) per
annum;  or

               (ii)  fifteen percent (15%) per annum.

          As used herein, the term "Wall Street Journal Prime
Rate" shall mean and refer to the so-called prime rate of
interest as published by the Wall Street Journal from time to
time.  In the event that the Wall Street Journal shall cease to
be publish the prime rate of interest, then, in such event, the
term "Wall Street Journal Prime Rate" shall be deemed to mean and
refer to the prime rate of interest as published by any other
publication selected by the holder of this Note in the exercise
of such holder's reasonable discretion.

     XIV.  Governing Law, Etc.   This Note was executed and
delivered by Maker to Payee in the state of Florida.   The Maker
agrees that this Note shall be deemed to have been made under and
shall be governed by the laws of the State of Florida in all
respects, including matters of construction, validity, and
performance.  If any provision of this Note shall be deemed
unenforceable under applicable law, such provision shall be
ineffective, but only to the extent of such unenforceability,
without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the
remaining provisions of this Note.  All of the terms and
provisions of this Note shall be applicable to and be binding
upon each and every maker, endorser, surety, guarantor, all other
persons who are or may become liable for the payment of the
indebtedness evidenced hereby and their heirs, personal
representatives, successors or assigns (provided, however, this
reference to "assigns" shall not be deemed or construed to
authorize or permit any assignment by the Maker).

the principal amount of U.S. $4,000,000.00, which Note shall be
made, executed and delivered by Borrower to Lender simultaneously
with the execution of this letter.

2.   The proceeds of the Loan shall be advanced by Lender to
Borrower on a revolving credit basis, with the understanding that
the maximum principal amount (the "Maximum Commitment") which
Lender shall be obligated, at any time, to lend to Borrower, and
which Borrower shall be entitled, at any time, to borrow from
Lender, shall in no event exceed the lesser of:

     (a)  the amount by which eighty percent (80%) of the sum of
Items (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v) and (vi) below, shall then exceed
$13,000,000.00, to wit:

          (i)  "Net" (as defined in Paragraph D of Article 4 of the

     referred to in Paragraph V of the Note) condominium building
     inventory, less accounts payable in connection therewith; and
     (i.e., plus)

          (ii) "Net"  on-site land improvements, less accounts
     payable in connection therewith; and (i.e., plus)

          (iii) "Net" "Community Wide Improvements" (as said term

          (vi)  a Land value of $4,200.00 per Unit for each Unit
     within the Falmouth section of Century Village, Pembroke
     Pines, Florida, which then remains to be delivered, less an
     amount equal to the then outstanding principal balance of the
     indebtedness evidenced by that certain Promissory Note dated
     the 27th day of August, 1993, in the original principal amount
     of $1,350,000.00, executed by NewCen Communities, Inc. in

     (b)  any act, omission, event or circumstance which, with the
passage of time or the giving of notice or both would constitute a

added] to such principal balance pursuant to any provision of the
Note or of any document, instrument or agreement which may now or
hereafter secure the Note) to exceed the Maximum Commitment; or

together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, before
making any payment(s) on account of the principal balance
outstanding under the Construction Note, the $3,000,000.00
Promissory Note dated September 30, 1993, or the $2,500,000.00
Future Advance Promissory Note dated September 15, 1994.  However,
if not sooner repaid, the entire outstanding principal balance of
the indebtedness evidenced by the Note, together with all accrued
but unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable in full on
the 30th day of November, 1996.

9.   To the extent not inconsistent with the terms of this letter,
the same conditions precedent to Lender's obligations to fund under
the Construction Note shall also be conditions precedent to
Lender's obligations to fund under the Note, it being understood
and agreed that, as relates to the advances to be made by Lender

Borrower shall pay to Lender, on the first day of each month during
the term of the Loan commencing on the first day of October, 1995,
a "Commitment Fee" i an amount equal to seventy-five one-thousands
percent (0.075%) of the amount by which:

     (a)   the Maximum Commitment in effect during the immediately

     shall have exceeded

     (b)   the average principal balance outstanding during such
month (said average principal balance outstanding being the
quotient computed by dividing [i] the sum of the principal balances
outstanding as at the close of business on each of the calendar
days during such month, by [ii] the number of calendar days in such
month.



     The Commitment Fee for the period commencing on and including
the 11th day of August, 1995, and ending on and including the 31st

Dear Al:

     The Guarantor is aware of the fact that the Maker has
requested the Payee to extend the "Maturity Date" as set forth in
the Note, as extended by that certain letter agreement, dated
February 6, 1995 to May 31, 1997, with the understanding, however,
that the outstanding principal balance of the Note must be reduced
to $500,000 on or before February 28, 1997, with the further
understanding that no sums may be borrowed under the Note
subsequent to February 28, 1997 which would increase the
outstanding principal balance of the Note to an amount in excess of
$500,000.  Of course, the monthly interest payments shall continue
to be made to and including the first business day of May, 1997.

     Please be advised that the Guarantor consents to the foregoing
