The Sale of the Wanlass Shopping Center Parcels and the Westwood Village Pad

       In 1998, the Trust purchased the fee title to the land at the Wanlass
       Shopping Center, located in San Pablo, California, for $1,780,000. This
       purchase was required under the terms of the then existing ground lease
       between the Trust and the seller who was also the ground lessor. The land
       was subsequently subdivided into three separate parcels described as
       Parcel I, II and III on the map of subdivision M.S. 354-98, filed on June
       17, 1999 in book 177 of Parcel Maps, Page 1, Contra Costa Records. On
       September 17, 1999 the Trust sold Parcel III and conveyed fee title to
       Kwok Ying Wong, Margaret Wong, Jerry Lee and Angela C. Lee for $1,488,000
       before sale costs. On September 24, 1999 the Trust sold Parcel I and
       conveyed fee title to The Chiu Family Revocable Trust for $524,013 before
       sale costs. The Trust has one remaining parcel, Parcel II, that was sold
       to The Chiu Family Revocable Trust on October 14, 1999 for $600,000
       before sale costs. The terms of the sale require that the sum of $297,311
       be retained in escrow to allow for the completion of site work on the
       property. Of this sum approximately $150,000 is expected to be returned
       to Pacific Real Estate Investment Trust at completion of the contemplated
       work. The net proceeds paid to the Trust from escrow at closing were
       $251,260.

       In 1996, the Trust purchased a 20,000 square foot parcel of land located
       at the periphery of Westwood Village Shopping Center in Redding, CA..
       This property is described as Parcel A on Map #LS 66-87, filed December
       23, 1987 in book 26 of Parcel Maps, Page 95, Shasta County Records. This
       acquisition was undertaken in order to extinguish a lease obligation that
       the Trust had with the then owner of the land. The Trust entered into
       this lease in 1987. The purchase price to the Trust was $200,000, the
       then estimated current value of the land. In addition, the Trust paid the
       seller a lease termination fee of $240,000. This fee was based on the
       discounted value of the Trust's residual lease rental obligation. The
       land acquisition price and the lease termination fee were accrued in 1996
       and paid in 1997. On August 11, 1999 the Trust sold the land to Redding
       Oasis, L.L.C., a California Limited Liability Company. The gross sales
       price before sale costs was $135,000.

PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

      ITEM 2 -    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                  AND OF OPERATIONS.

      (1)  LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:

Cash flow provided by operating activities was $91,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 as compared to cash flow used by operating activities of
$1,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998. The net change is primarily
due to the loss on the sale of the Wanlass Parcels I and III and the change in
other assets due to insurance reimbursements for the Kings Court remediation
clean up in 1999 offset by the change in operation from the sale of Kings Court
Center in 1998.

Cash flow provided by investing activities was $1,960,000 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1999 compared to $1,884,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998. The net change is primarily the result of the sale of two
parcels of the Wanlass property and the decrease in construction costs at the
Wanlass property in 1999 compared to the sale of Kings Court offset by the
Wanlass Acquisition in 1998.

Cash flow used by financing activities was zero for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 compared to $1,511,000 for the nine months ended September
30, 1998. The decrease is primarily due to the re-payment of the Kings Court
mortgage debt and distribution to joint venture partners in 1998.

In 1998, the Trust purchased the fee title to the land at the Wanlass Shopping
Center, located in San Pablo, California, for $1,780,000. This purchase was
required under the terms of the then existing ground lease between the Trust and
the seller who was also the ground lessor. The land was subsequently subdivided
into three separate parcels described as Parcel I, II and III on the map of
subdivision M.S. 354-98, filed on June 17, 1999 in book 177 of Parcel Maps, Page
1, Contra Costa Records. On September 17, 1999 the Trust sold Parcel III and
conveyed fee title to Kwok Ying Wong, Margaret Wong, Jerry Lee and Angela C. Lee
for $1,488,000 before sale costs. On September 24, 1999 the Trust sold Parcel I
and conveyed fee title to The Chiu Family Revocable Trust for $524,013 before
sale costs. The Trust has one remaining parcel, Parcel II, that was sold to The
Chiu Family Revocable Trust on October 14, 1999 for $600,000 before sale costs.
The terms of the sale require that the sum of $297,311 be retained in escrow to
allow for the completion of site work on the property. Of this sum approximately
$150,000 is expected to be returned to Pacific Real Estate Investment Trust at
completion of the contemplated work. The net proceeds paid to the Trust from
escrow at closing were $251,260.

In 1996, the Trust purchased a 20,000 square foot parcel of land located at the
periphery of Westwood Village Shopping Center in Redding, CA. This property is
described as Parcel A on Map #LS 66-87, filed December 23, 1987 in book 26 of
Parcel Maps, Page 95, Shasta County Records. This acquisition was undertaken in
order to extinguish a lease obligation that the Trust had with the then owner of
the land. The Trust entered into this lease in 1987. The purchase price to the
Trust was $200,000, the then estimated current value of the land. In addition,
the Trust paid the seller a lease termination fee of $240,000. This fee was
based on the discounted value of the Trust's residual lease rental obligation.
The land acquisition price and the lease termination fee were accrued in 1996
and paid in 1997. On August 11, 1999 the Trust sold the land to Redding Oasis,
L.L.C., a California Limited Liability Company. The gross sales price before
costs was $135,000.

      (2)  MATERIAL CHANGES IN RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR NINE MONTHS ENDED
           SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 COMPARED TO 1998:

Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 was $709,000 compared to
net income of $2,124,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998.

During the first nine months rental revenues decreased from $1,229,000 in 1998
to $139,000 in 1999, a decrease of $1,090,000 or 89%. This decrease resulted
from the sale of Kings Court Shopping Center in August 1998.

                                   Page 7 of 9
<PAGE>

Operating expenses decreased from $513,000 in 1998 to $102,000 in 1999, a
decrease of $411,000 or 80%. Property taxes decreased from $65,000 in 1998 to
$15,000 in 1999, a decrease of $50,000, or 77%. Property management fees
decreased from $51,000 in 1998 to $8,000 in 1999, a decrease of $43,000, or 84%.
Each of these decreases resulted from the sale of Kings Court Shopping Center in
August 1998.

General and administrative expense increased from $255,000 in 1998 to $377,000
in 1999, an increase of $122,000 or 48%.  The increase in 1999 is the result
of insurance expense related to the liquidation.

Loss on the sale of property of $393,000 in 1999 represents the loss on the sale
of the Parcels I and III at the Wanlass property Gain on the sale of property of
$4,984,000 in 1998 represents the gain on the sale of the El Portal pad and the
sale of Kings Court Shopping Center.

Interest income increased from $81,000 in 1998 to $113,000 in 1999, an
increase of $32,000, or 40%. The net change was primarily the result of cash
received from the sale of the Wanlass property in 1999 and Kings Court
Shopping Center in 1998.

Interest expense decreased from $85,000 in 1998 to zero in 1999, a decrease of
$85,000, or 100%.  The decrease was primarily due to the  re-payment of the
Kings Court mortgage debt in 1998.

Material changes for the three months ended September 30, 1999 as compared to
1998 were for the same reasons in relative proportionate amounts as those shown
for the nine months.

ITEM 6 (b) - Report on Form 8K was filed on September 17, 1999 and October 28,
1999.
