fifteen years and secured by the homes.

                     MONMOUTH CAPITAL CORPORATION
                 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
           OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                   

MATERIAL CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION

Net cash used by operating activities for the nine months
ended December 31, 1998 amounted to $668,398 as compared to
$391,497 for the nine months ended December 31, 1997.  This
increase in net cash used by operating activities is
primarily due to an increase in manufactured home inventory
of  The Mobile Home Store, Inc. (MHS), the Company's wholly-
owned subsidiary.  Inventory increased by $576,837 for the
nine months ended December 31, 1998 as compared to an
increase of $515,447 for the nine months ended December 31,
1997 as a result of increased purchases of  manufactured
homes for sale to be used as models for  new sales centers
in  Ohio and New York.

Loans Receivable increased by $761,371 during the nine months
ended December 31, 1998.  This was the result of new loans
made of $1,201,809 offset by $440,438 in collections.

Inventory financing increased by $1,041,501 during the nine
months ended December 31, 1998.  This was a result of the new
$2,500,000 financing agreement which allows the Company to
finance all inventory purchases.  In the past, only inventory
purchased at certain locations was financed.

MATERIAL CHANGES IN RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Income is comprised primarily of sales of manufactured homes,
interest income and rental income.  Sales of manufactured
homes amounted to $1,503,174 and $4,400,640 for the three and
nine months ended December 31, 1998 as compared to $1,039,541
and $3,074,873 for the three and nine months ended December
31, 1997.  MHS has been experiencing increased sales since
its inception in fiscal 1994.

Interest income amounted to $92,003 and $251,964 for the
three and nine months ended December 31, 1998 as compared to
$68,471 and $198,511 for the three and nine months ended
December 31, 1997. This increase was the result of an
increase in loans receivable.

Rental income, including tenant reimbursements,  amounted to
$49,745 and $114,948 for the three and nine months ended
December 31, 1998 as compared to $47,149 and $141,021 for the
three and nine months ended December 31, 1997.  Rental income
is attributable to the Company's purchase of a net-leased
industrial building on March 31, 1994.  The decrease during
the nine months ended December 31, 1998 was the result of a
decrease in reimburseable expenses.

                  MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
      OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONT'D)
                                   


Other income amounted to $49,121 and $81,847 for the three
and nine months ended December 31, 1998 as compared to
$13,478 and $47,637 for the three and nine months ended
December 31, 1997. This increase was due to income received
for retail loan volume.

The increase in Cost of  manufactured homes sales and Selling
expense is directly attributable to the increase in sales of
manufactured homes made by MHS.  The Company is investing in
new sales centers and increasing market share.  Interest
expense remained relatively stable for the three and nine
months ended December 31, 1998 as compared to the three and
nine months ended December 31, 1997.

Salaries and employee benefits amounted to $114,454 and
$372,924 for the three and nine months ended December 31,
1998 as compared to $110,056 and $331,933 for the three and
nine months ended December 31, 1997.  The increase during the
nine months ended December 31, 1998 was due to an increase in
personnel.

Other expenses amounted to $150,818 and $488,851 for the
three and nine months ended December 31, 1998 as compared to
$140,713 and $357,468 for the three and nine months ended
December 31, 1997. The increase during the nine months ended
December 31, 1998 was primarily due to the expansion of the
operations of MHS.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company is currently engaged in real estate activities,
including the sale and financing of manufactured homes.

The Company has a $2,500,000 line of credit  to finance its
inventory purchases.  As of December 31, 1998, $2,026,734 of
the line was utilized.

The Company's ability to generate adequate cash to meet its
needs is dependent primarily on its real estate investment,
leveraging of its real estate investment, the success of the
sale  and financing of  manufactured homes, collections
receivable, availability of bank borrowings, the Dividend
Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan and access to the
capital markets.

                  MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
      OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONT'D)



YEAR 2000

The Company is currently in the process of implementing its
Year 2000 compliance plan.  The Company has assessed all
hardware and software for Year 2000 readiness.

The Company has developed and is currently implementing
renovation plans, including hardware replacement and software
upgrades, to ensure all hardware and software is Year 2000
compliant.  The Company has no significant suppliers and
vendors.  Renovation and testing are scheduled to be
completed during the first half of 1999.

The Company has developed contingency plans for each of its
critical systems which includes moving many of the Company's
operations to a manual system.   There can be no assurances
given that the Year 2000 compliance plan will be completed
successfully by the Year 2000, in which event the Company
could incur additional costs to implement its contingency
plans.  Management does not anticipate that such costs would
be significant to the Company.  The  total costs associated
with the Company's Year 2000 plan are anticipated to be
immaterial.

Successful and timely completion of the Year 2000 plan is
based on management's best estimates derived from various
assumptions of future events, which are inherently uncertain,
including the effectiveness of remediation and validation
plans, and all vendors and suppliers readiness.
