PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
OVERVIEW
DeRand Real Estate Investment Trust (the "Registrant") is a business
trust of unlimited duration organized under the laws of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts in 1972. As reflected in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 1993, the Registrant was adversely impacted by
extant real estate industry pressures, resulting with the subsequent loss of
all its assets. Currently, the Registrant conducts no business, has no assets
and no liabilities. Management is actively seeking to infuse the Registrant
with new capital and/or properties.
At such time as the Registrant shall have funds to invest, it would
invest substantially all of its assets in income-producing real estate and, to
a lesser extent, in mortgages secured by real estate. The Registrant would
purchase property for long-term investment and income, and not for resale.
However, it may sometimes be advisable to sell an investment property, or a
portion thereof, for prudent business reasons. At such time as the Registrant
shall have funds to invest, it plans to concentrate on acquiring real estate in
the form of hotels and/or apartment projects.
The Registrant has no full-time employees. The Registrant has elected to
be treated as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") pursuant to the
provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. REIT status allows
the Registrant not to be taxed at the corporate level on its taxable income
that is currently distributed to the shareholders. This treatment
substantially eliminates the "double taxation" (i.e., imposition of income
taxes on both corporate earnings and distributions to the shareholders) that
typically results from the use of corporate investment vehicles.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
In January 1996, the first lien mortgage holder filed suit to foreclose
upon the mortgage on the real property and fixtures of Colombia Gardens
Apartments, a garden apartment complex located in Cohoes, New York. Such
foreclosure proceedings resulted in the transfer of this property in
consideration for the release of the Registrant from the first lien mortgage
and any continuing liabilities with respect thereto, resulting in a loss of
$780,601.
On March 28, 1995, the Registrant sold its interest in a second lien
purchase money mortgage secured by real estate, known as Leisureville
Apartments, in York, Pennsylvania, for $125,000, the proceeds of which were
applied towards the payment and settlement of the Registrant's obligations to
Capital Bank, N.A., of Washington, D.C.

PART II
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR COMPANY'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER
MATTERS
There is no established public trading market for the Registrant's Trust
Shares. Since there is no active market for the Trust Shares, the Registrant
is unable, without undue effort, to provide information regarding quotations of
its Trust Shares.
Holders: As of March 1, 1999 there were approximately 686 holders
record of the Registrant's Trust Shares.
Dividends: None (no taxable income)
