                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - ACCOUNTING POLICY

     The interim financial statements furnished herein reflect
all adjustments which were,  in the opinion of management,
necessary to present fairly the financial position,  results of
operations and cash flows at  June 30,1999 and for all periods
presented.  All adjustments made in the interim period were of a
normal recurring nature.  Certain footnote disclosures which
would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the
audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Annual Report of Monmouth Real Estate Investment Corporation
(the Company) for the year ended September 30, 1998 have been
omitted.

NOTE 2 - NET INCOME PER SHARE

     Basic net income per share is calculated by dividing net
income by the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding during the period.  Diluted net income per share is
calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number
of common shares outstanding plus the weighted-average number of
net shares that would be issued  upon exercise of stock options
pursuant to the treasury stock method. Options in the amount of
35,175 and 24,818  for the three and nine months ended June  30,

           MONMOUTH REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT CORPORATION
 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
                      RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


MATERIAL CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION

     The  Company  generated net cash provided from operating
activities of $3,238,923  for  the current nine months as
compared to $2,709,256  for the  prior period.  The Company
raised $7,824,629  from the issuance  of shares of common stock
through its Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase  Plan
(DRIP).   Dividends paid for the nine months ended June 30, 1999
amounted to $2,740,105.

     Total real estate investments increased by $7,412,944,
primarily due to the purchase of the warehouse facilities in
Omaha, Nebraska and Albemarle County Virginia, for approximately
$9,600,000, offset by the sale of  the warehouse in Monsey, New
York.

     Securities available for sale increased by $10,267,931
primarily as a result of additional purchases.

          Mortgage notes payable increased by $5,648,795 during
the nine months ended June 30, 1999.  This increase was the
result of new mortgages of $6,850,000 relating to the purchases
of the warehouse facilities, offset by principal repayments of
$1,201,205.

     Loans payable increased by $3,404,942 during the nine month
ended June 30, 1999.  This increase was primarily the result of
additional take-downs of the Company's revolving credit line
offset by repayments.

MATERIAL CHANGES IN RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

          Rental and occupancy charges increased for the three
months ended June 30, 1999 to $2,019,749 as compared to
$1,528,137 for the three months  ended June 30,  1998.  Rental
and occupancy charges increased for the nine months ended June
30, 1999 to $5,957,049 as compared to $4,723,181 for the nine
months ended June 30, 1998.  These increases were due primarily
to acquisitions made during fiscal 1998 and 1999.

     Interest and other income increased by $168,850 for the
three months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to the three months
ended June 30, 1998. This was due primarily to the increase in
securities available for sale.  Interest and other income
increased for the nine months ended June 30, 1999 by $31,216 as
compared to the nine months ended June 30, 1998.  This was due
primarily to the increase in securities available for sale offset
by a gain on sale of securities available for sale of $190,233
for the prior period.

     Interest expense increased by $280,720 for the three months
ended June 30, 1999 as compared to the three months ended June
30, 1998.  Interest expense increased by $532,950
for the nine months ended June 30, 1999  compared to the nine
months ended June 30, 1998. This was the result of additional
borrowings for the new acquisitions made during fiscal 1998 and
1999.
                             Page 8


<PAGE>

     Real estate taxes increased by $85,897 for the three months
ended June 30, 1999 as compared to the three months ended June
30, 1998.  Real estate taxes increased by $323,906 for the nine
months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to the nine months ended
June 30, 1998.  This was due to the new acquisitions made during
fiscal 1998 and 1999 as well as the reassessment of  a warehouse
facility in Illinois.  Since the tenant leases  provide for the
payment of real estate taxes by the tenants, there was a
corresponding increase in occupancy charges.

     Depreciation expense increased by $95,013 for the three
months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to the three months ended
June 30, 1998.  Depreciation expense increased by $333,571 for
the nine months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to the nine
months ended June 30, 1998. This was due to  the  real estate
acquisitions in fiscal 1998 and 1999.

     Gain On Sales Of Assets - Investment Property increased by
$1,240,325 for the nine months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to
the nine months ended June 30, 1998.  This was primarily due to
the gain on sale of the warehouse facility in Monsey, New York.

     Funds from operations (FFO), defined as net income,
excluding gains (or losses)  from sales of depreciable assets,
plus depreciation increased from  $2,685,786 for the nine months
ended June 30,  1998 to $2,940,713  for the nine months ended
June 30,  1999.   FFO  does not replace net income (determined in
accordance with generally  accepted accounting principles) as a
measure of  performance or net cash flows as a measure of
liquidity.   FFO should be considered as a supplemental measure
of operating performance used by real estate investment trusts.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

          Net cash provided from operating activities amounted to
$3,238,923 and $2,709,256 during the nine months ended  June 30,
1999 and 1998, respectively

     The Company owns twenty properties of which fifteen carried
mortgage loans totaling  $31,598,577 at June 30, 1999.  The
Company has been raising capital through its DRIP and investing
in net leased industrial properties.  The Company believes that
funds generated from operations, the DRIP, together with the
ability to finance and refinance its properties will provide
sufficient funds to adequately meet its obligations over the next
several years.

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 or vendors.  The Company is in the process
of assessing the Year 2000 readiness of its major tenants.
Renovation and testing are scheduled to be completed during the
third quarter of 1999.
                             Page 9


<PAGE>

     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 can 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 less than $20,000.

     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.
