ITEM 2.  ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS


This Form 8-K/A amends a Form 8-K Current Report dated May 1, 1996, and filed
May 16, 1996, by Vinland Property Trust (the "Trust") only to provide required
financial statements that were not available at the date of the original
filing.

In April 1996, the Trust consummated the acquisition of Holly House Apartments
("Holly House"), a 57-unit complex built in the mid-1960s and located in North
Miami, Florida, from Alan M. Kornbluh, as Trustee (who has no other
relationship to the Trust).  The $1.4 million purchase price was based on a
capitalization rate of approximately 12.5% and was paid in cash from the
Trust's general working capital.  The Trust paid an acquisition fee of $14,500
to Tarragon Realty Advisors, Inc. ("Tarragon"), the Trust's advisor, for
services rendered in connection with the transaction.

On May 1, 1996, the Trust purchased Mission Trace Apartments ("Mission Trace")
for a purchase price of $2.9 million, which was based on an estimated
capitalization rate of approximately 11%.  This property was constructed in
1990 and consists of twelve two-story garden style buildings with a total of 96
units.  The property was 91% occupied at the date of purchase and is located in
Tallahassee, Florida.  A portion of the purchase price was financed through a
first mortgage loan in the amount of $2,220,000 and a second mortgage loan in
the amount of $290,000, both provided by First Federal Savings and Loan
Association of Osceola County, the seller (which has no other relationship to
the Trust).  The remainder of the purchase price was paid in cash from general
working capital of the Trust.  For the first two years, the first and second
mortgage loans bear interest at 8.25% and 8.5%, respectively.  Thereafter, the
rates are adjusted every two years to 225 basis points and 200 basis points,
respectively, over the Two Year Constant Maturity Treasury.  Both loans mature
in May 2006 and are payable in monthly installments of principal and interest.
In connection with the acquisition, the Trust paid a $28,900 acquisition fee to
Tarragon.

The purchase prices in each of the above transactions represented less than 10%
of the Trust's consolidated assets as of November 30, 1995.  However, the
aggregate purchase price exceeded 10% of the Trust's consolidated assets as of
November 30, 1995.

ITEM 7.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS.

(a)      Pro forma financial information:

Pro forma statements of operations are presented for the fiscal year ended
November 30, 1995, and the three months ended February 29, 1996.  A pro forma
balance sheet as of February 29, 1996, is also presented.

The pro forma statements of operations present the Trust's operations as if the
transactions described in Item 2. had occurred at the beginning of each of the
periods presented.  The pro forma statements of operations include estimated
operations for Holly House due to the unavailability of certain financial
records.  Operations for the year ended November 30, 1995, have been estimated
using operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 1995.  Operations for
the three months ended February 29, 1996, have been estimated based on
one-fourth of the property's actual 1995 operations.

ITEM 7.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS (Continued)


(b)      Financial statements of property acquired:

Mission Trace represents 66% of the aggregate real estate acquired in the
transactions described in Item 2.  The total revenues of Mission Trace
represent approximately 67% of the aggregate total revenues of both properties
acquired for the year ended December 31, 1995.  As it covers the substantial
majority of the properties acquired, only the audited statement of revenues and
direct operating expenses for Mission Trace for the year ended December 31,
1995, is provided.

                          Independent Auditors' Report




To the Board of Trustees
Vinland Property Trust

We have audited the accompanying statement of revenues and direct operating
expenses of Mission Trace Apartments for the year ended December 31, 1995.
This statement of revenues and direct operating expenses is the responsibility
of the Property's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
this statement of revenues and direct operating expenses 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 statement of revenues and direct
operating expenses is free of material misstatement.  An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the statement of revenues and direct operating expenses.  An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall statement of revenues and
direct operating expenses presentation.  We believe that our audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

The accompanying financial statement is prepared for the purpose of complying
with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (for
inclusion in Form 8-K of Vinland Property Trust) and, as described in Note 1,
is not intended to be a complete presentation of the results of operations.

In our opinion, the statement of revenues and direct operating expenses
referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the revenues and
direct operating expenses of Mission Trace Apartments for the year ended
December 31, 1995, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
