ITEM 2.  ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS

On August 18, 1997, Continental Mortgage and Equity Trust (the "Trust")
purchased the Eagle Rock Apartments, an apartment complex in Los Angeles,
California, for $4.4 million (1.7% of the Trust's assets at December 31, 1996).
The seller of the property was Eagle Rock Corporation, a California
corporation.  The property was constructed in 1984 and consists of 99 units
which were 97% occupied at the date of acquisition.  The Trust paid $1.1
million in cash with the seller providing purchase money financing for the
remaining $3.3 million of the purchase price.

The purchase of this property, when aggregated with other property purchases
the Trust has made in 1997 exceed 10% of the Trust's assets at December 31,
1996.


ITEM 7.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS

(a)      Pro forma financial information:

Pro forma statements of operations are presented for the year ended December
31, 1996 and the six months ended June 30, 1997.  A pro forma balance sheet as
of June 30, 1997 is also presented.

A summary of the pro forma transactions follows:

In August 1997, the Trust purchased Eagle Rock Apartments, a 99 unit apartment
complex in Los Angeles, California, for $4.4 million.  The Trust paid $1.1
million in cash with the seller providing purchase money financing for the
remaining $3.3 million of the purchase price.  The mortgage bears interest at
10.5% per annum, requires monthly payments of interest only and matures in
February 1998.

The purchase price of this property is 1.7% of the Trust's assets at December
31, 1996.  Although not a significant acquisition in itself, when aggregated
with the other purchases completed by the Trust in 1997 as described below,
such purchases constitute a significant acquisition.

In addition to the Eagle Rock purchase discussed above, the Trust has purchased
two apartment complexes, three commercial properties and four parcels of
undeveloped land in 1997.  The properties, located in North Carolina, Texas,
Washington, D.C. and Florida, were purchased for a total of $52.9 million in
separate transactions from unaffiliated sellers and represent approximately 21%
of the Trust's assets at December 31, 1996.  The Trust paid a total of $14.8
million in cash and financed the remainder of the purchase prices.  The
mortgages bear interest at rates ranging from 8.0% to 10.5% per annum and
mature from 1998 to 2009.

The Trust has previously provided audited statements of operations for the two
other apartment complexes and three commercial properties acquired during 1997,
totaling $45.6 million or 18.2% of the Trust's assets at December 31, 1996.
See the Trust's Current Report on Form 8-K, dated July 18, 1997.

ITEM 7.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS (Continued)

In addition to the purchases described above, during 1997 the Trust has sold
two office buildings.  In connection with the sales, the Trust received net
cash proceeds totaling $14.0 million, after the payoff of $11.5  million in
existing mortgage debt and the payment of various closing costs associated with
the sales.  The Trust recognized a total gain on these sales of $6.8 million.

The pro forma statements of operations present the Trust's operations as if the
purchase and sale transactions described above had occurred at the beginning of
each of the periods presented.

                          Independent Auditors' Report



To the Board of Trustees
Continental Mortgage and Equity Trust

We have audited the accompanying statement of revenues and direct operating
expenses of Eagle Rock Apartments for the year ended December 31, 1996.  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 Continental Mortgage and Equity 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 Eagle Rock Apartments for the year ended December
31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTE 1:  ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The Eagle Rock Apartments is a 99-unit apartment complex located in
         Los Angeles,  California.  During 1996, the property was owned by
         Eagle Rock Corporation.

         The accompanying financial statement does not include a provision for
         depreciation and amortization, bad debt expense, interest expense,
         significant non-recurring repairs expense and related insurance
         reimbursements or income taxes. Accordingly, this statement is not
         intended to be a complete presentation of the results of operations.

NOTE 2:  ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

         The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
         accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
         and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues and
         expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ
         from those estimates.
