              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)

1.   CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
          In the opinion of the Company,  the accompanying  unaudited  condensed
consolidated  financial  statements include all adjustments  (consisting only of
normal  recurring  accruals) which are necessary for a fair  presentation of the
results for the periods presented.  Certain information and footnote disclosures
normally  included  in the  financial  statements  prepared in  accordance  with
generally accepted  accounting  principles have been condensed or omitted. It is
suggested  that these  condensed  consolidated  financial  statements be read in
conjunction  with the Company's  Annual  Report for the year ended  December 31,
1997.  The results of  operations  for the three months ended March 31, 1998 are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.


2.  GAIN ON SALES OF REAL ESTATE
          In January 1998, The Grove Towne Center-Texas, Ltd. sold approximately
13.5  acres of vacant  land  located in  Houston,  Texas for $2.6  million.  The
Company recognized a net gain of approximately $725,000.

          In February 1998, Courtland  Investments,  Inc. sold approximately 100
acres located in Westerly,  Rhode Island for approximately $117,000. The Company
recognized a net gain of approximately $86,000.

          In March 1998, the Company was awarded an additional $144,000 from the
State of  Texas  consideration  for the  condemnation  of  certain  property  in
Houston,  Texas, as previously  reported.  The Company  recognized a net gain of
approximately $86,000.

<PAGE>
           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
          The Company reported net income of approximately $482,000 (or $.41 per
share) for the three months  ended March 31, 1998,  as compared to a net loss of
$227,000 (or $.19 per share) for the three  months  ended March 31, 1997.  Total
revenues for the three months  ended March 31, 1998,  as compared  with the same
period in 1997,  increased by approximately  $43,000 (or 6%). Total expenses for
the same comparable  period decreased by approximately  $70,000 (or 5%). Gain on
sales of real estate for the three months ended March 31, 1998 was approximately
$897,000, as compared to approximately $302,000 for the three months ended March
31, 1997.

REVENUES
          Rentals and related revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1998
as compared with the same period in 1997, decreased by approximately $46,000 (or
10%). This decrease was primarily  attributable to decreased  rental income from
the HMG-Fieber properties primarily as the result of sales of properties.

          For the three months ended March 31, 1998,  marina revenues  decreased
by  approximately  $21,000  (or 13%) as  compared  to that of the same period in
1997. This was primarily attributable to decreased marina slip rental revenue.

          For the three  months  ended  March 31,  1998 the  Company  recognized
approximately  $164,000 in gains from the sale of marketable  securities.  There
were no such gains for the period ended March 31, 1997.

          For the three months ended March 31, 1998 interest from invested cash,
dividends and other decreased by  approximately  $54,000 (or 39%) as compared to
that of the same  period in 1997. This  decrease  was  attributable  to the non-
recurring gain on the sale of a boat slip of approximately  $117,000 in February
1997. This amount was partially  offset by increased  gains from  unconsolidated
entities of approximately $67,000.

EXPENSES
          Operating expenses of rental properties and other for the three months
ended March 31,  1998,  as compared  with the same period in 1997,  decreased by
approximately  $40,000 (or 19%).  This  decrease was primarily  attributable  to
decreased  operating costs of HMG-Fieber  Associates and The Grove Towne Center-
Texas, Ltd. as the result of sales of properties.

           Marina  related  expenses  for the three  months ended March 31, 1998
decreased  by  approximately  $7,000 (or 5%) as  compared  with that of the same
period in 1997.  This decrease was  primarily  attributable  to lower  operating
costs due to decreased revenues from marina operations.

          Advisor's  fee  expense  for the three  months  ended  March 31,  1998
decreased by  approximately  $54,000 (or 25%) as compared  with that of the same
period  in 1997.  This  decrease  was the  result  of a change  in the  advisory
agreement effective January 1, 1998, as previously reported.

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                   (continued)

          General and  administrative  expenses for the three months ended March
31, 1998 increased by approximately $12,000 (or 5%) as compared with that of the
same period in 1997. This increase was primarily attributable to increased legal
fees relating to ongoing  litigation of approximately  $88,000,  increased other
taxes of Courtland Investments, Inc. of approximately $59,000 and an increase in
various other expenses of approximately  $33,000. These increases were partially
offset  by   decreased   general  and   administrative   expenses   relating  to
non-recurring  expenses  of  Grove  Isle  Club,  Inc.  in 1997 of  approximately
$164,000 and other decreased expenses of approximately $4,000.

          Depreciation  and  amortization  for the three  months ended March 31,
1998  decreased by  approximately  $25,000 (or 9%) as compared  with that of the
same period in 1997.  This  decrease  was  primarily  due to lower  depreciation
expense from Grove Isle Club, Inc.

          Interest  expense for the three months ended March 31, 1998  decreased
by  approximately  $8,000 (or 4%) as  compared  with that of the same  period in
1997.  This decrease was primarily  due to decreased  interest  expense from The
Grove Towne Center-Texas, Ltd. of approximately $31,000 due to a decrease in the
average balance of outstanding  debt.  This decrease was partially  offset by an
increase in interest expense from Courtland  Investments,  Inc. of approximately
$23,000 due to an increase in the average balance of its outstanding debt

          Minority  partners'  interest  in  losses  of  consolidated   entities
decreased  by  approximately  $56,000  (or 95%) as  compared to that of the same
period in 1997. This decrease was primarily due to decreased operating losses of
The Grove Towne Center-Texas, Ltd.

          All  other  expenses  for the three  months  ended  March 31,  1998 as
compared to the same period in 1997 remained consistent.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
          The Company's material commitments  primarily consist of maturities of
debt  obligations.  The funds  necessary to meet these  obligations are expected
from the  proceeds  of  sales of  properties,  refinancing,  distributions  from
investments and available cash. In addition,  the Company intends to continue to
seek opportunities for investment in income producing properties.

MATERIAL COMPONENTS OF CASH FLOWS
          For the three  months  ended  March 31,  1998,  net cash  provided  by
investing activities was approximately $1.8 million. This consisted primarily of
net proceeds from disposal of properties of  approximately  $2.4 million and net
proceeds from the sales and redemptions of securities of approximately $180,000.
These  increases  were partially  offset by increased  investments in marketable
securities of approximately $802,000.

          For the three months ended March 31, 1998,  net cash used in financing
activities was approximately $1 million.  This consisted  primarily of repayment
of mortgages payable of $1.1 million, partially offset by additions to mortgages
and notes payable of approximately $65,000.
