                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                             March 31, 1997 and 1996

                                   (UNAUDITED)


1.      BASIS OF PRESENTATION

        The significant accounting policies followed by the Company in the
        preparation of these unaudited interim financial statements are
        consistent with the accounting policies followed in the audited annual
        financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
        (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
        fair presentation have been included.

        Certain information and footnote disclosures included in the audited
        financial statements have been omitted. For additional information,
        reference is made to the financial statements and notes thereto included
        in the Company's Annual Report to Stockholders for the year ended
        December 31, 1996.

        The net loss applicable to common stock for the three months ended March
        31, 1997 and 1996 was divided by the number of shares outstanding during
        the period to determine per share data.

2.      INCOME TAXES

        The Company anticipates it will generate Federal taxable loss for the
        year ended December 31, 1997 and therefore it expects that no Federal
        income taxes will be payable for the year ending December 31, 1997. For
        the full year 1996, net operating loss carryforwards were in excess of
        Federal taxable income. Accordingly, for the three month period ended
        March 31, 1996 the Federal income tax provision has been eliminated
        through the utilization of such loss carryforwards.

3.      STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS

        There were no interest payments for the three months ended March 31,
        1997 and 1996.

        There were no income tax payments during the three months ended March
        31, 1997 and 1996.


Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
          Condition and Results of Operations

(1)     Material Changes in Financial Condition

               The Company anticipates that its current cash balance will be
sufficient to fund its requirements for the foreseeable future.

               At March 31, 1997 the Company had no material commitments for
capital expenditures.


(2)  Material Changes in Results of Operations

               Total real estate revenues for the three months ended March 31,
1997 were $16,000 versus $18,000 for the comparable period in 1996.

               There were no property carrying costs incurred in 1997 versus
$72,000 incurred during the first three months of 1996. Such decrease results
from the Partnership Agreement with Belz Enterprises, wherein certain
expenditures of the related property are paid by the Company, but are charged to
the Partnership. During the three months ended March 31, 1997 there were $59,000
of such expenditures charged to the Partnership.

               General and administrative expenses were $14,000 or 13% lower
than the first quarter of 1996. The decrease is due to lower professional fees.

               Interest income for the three months ended March 31, 1997 was
$64,000, versus $38,000 for the comparable period in 1996. The increase relates
to a higher level of cash equivalents resulting from the sale in August 1996, of
real estate property.
