     instructions to Form  10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. 
     Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
     required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
     financial statement presentation.  In the opinion of management, such
     statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal
     recurring items) which are considered necessary for a fair
     presentation of the financial position of the Company at September 30,
     1995 and the results of its operations and cash flow for the three
     month and nine month periods then ended.  It is suggested that these
     financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
     statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual
     Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1994.

3.   Rental property

     Real estate owned consists of a shopping center in Grand Rapids,
     Michigan.  Two tenants lease space in the shopping center.  The leases
     expire on July 10, 1997 and August 31, 1999.

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


Material changes in financial condition
- ---------------------------------------

There was a material change in the Company's financial condition during the
quarter ended March 31, 1995 arising from the payment of a cash dividend of
$13,092,549 (see "Dividend" below).  

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

During the third quarter of 1995, the Company recorded income before income
taxes of $20,970 compared to income of $119,429 for the same period of
1994.  The decrease resulted principally from a  decrease in interest
income of $107,910 caused by the decrease in the amount of cash earning
interest attributable to the $13,092,549 dividend (offset in part by an
increase in interest rates of approximately 1.1%).  

During the nine months ended September 30, 1995, the Company recorded a
loss of $332,874 before income taxes compared to income of $249,420 for the
same period of 1994.  The decrease resulted principally from (i) a decrease
in interest income of $218,684 caused by the decrease in cash earning
interest attributable to the $13,092,549 dividend (offset in part by an
increase in interest rates of approximately 1.3%); (ii) an increase in
administrative expenses of $97,616 primarily due to increases in
shareholders' meeting costs and directors' fees attributable to a proxy
contest between the Company and the Regency Shareholders Committee; and
(iii) an increase in professional fees of $270,752 primarily attributable
to legal fees incurred in connection with the proxy contest.  Reference is
made to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1994 for a more detailed discussion of the proxy contest.  
Dividend

The Company paid a cash dividend on February 7, 1995 of $13,092,549 ($.15
per share) to shareholders which represented approximately 77.5% and 77.8%
of the Company's assets and shareholders' equity, respectively, as of
December 31, 1994.

Item 1.   Legal Proceedings
          -----------------

     Reference is made to Item 3 of the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1994 for a description of the
Company's collection action on an $850,000 promissory note against Earl
Reiss (the note's obligor) and Richard Siegal (the note's guarantor).  The
note is secured by a second mortgage on a commercial building in
Westchester County, New York.  In November 1994, the court awarded summary
judgment against Reiss in the amount of $1,341,093.

     In July 1995, the court awarded summary judgment against Siegal in the
amount of $1,564,753.  On October 3, 1995, the Company signed a settlement
agreement regarding its judgment against Siegal in exchange for Siegal's
agreement to pay the Company the amount of $900,000.  Siegal has paid
$500,000 of such amount to the Company.  An additional $250,000 is due on
January 15, 1996, and the final $150,000 is due on January 15, 1997. 

     The agreement with Siegal contains various provisions that secure the
Company's rights under its judgment against Siegal until such time as the
remaining amount owed by Siegal under the settlement agreement is paid. 
Assuming that Siegal pays the remaining $400,000 due under the settlement
agreement, the agreement provides that the Company will assign to Siegal
the rights under its judgment against Reiss and its mortgage on the New
York building. 

     The Company's Board of Directors has not yet ratified the settlement 
agreement.  In addition to considering whether to ratify the settlement 
agreement, the Board of Directors is considering the enforceability of the
agreement.
