                  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  December 31,  1998 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 -
0- and 4,412 for the three months ended December 31, 1998 and
1997, respectively, are included in the diluted weighted average
shares outstanding.  Options for 320,000 shares were excluded at
December 31, 1998 since they were anti-dilutive.


NOTE 3 - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

     Total  comprehensive income for the three months ended
December 31, 1998 and 1997 is $579,262 and $448,104,
respectively.
     
     
NOTE 4 - REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS

     On  December 11,  1998,  the  Company purchased an 88,140
square  foot warehouse facility in Omaha, Nebraska from Jones
Development Company, LLC, an  unrelated  entity.   This warehouse
facility is 100% net leased  to  Federal Express Corporation.

$5,598,000.   The Company paid approximately $600,000  in  cash,

with Summit Bank and obtained a mortgage of $4,100,000.   This
mortgage  payable is at an interest rate of 7.15% and is due
January 1, 2014.

           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 $1,154,100  for  the current three months as
compared to $1,076,698  for the  prior period.  The Company
raised $2,470,239  from the issuance  of shares of common stock
through its Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase  Plan
(DRIP).   Dividends paid for the three months ended December 31,
1998 amounted to $823,275.

     Total real estate investments increased by $5,205,140,
primarily due to the purchase of a warehouse facility in Omaha,
Nebraska.

          Mortgage notes payable increased by $3,732,840 during
the three months ended December 31, 1998.  This increase was the
result of new mortgages of $4,100,000 relating to the purchase of
a warehouse facility in Omaha, Nebraska offset by principal
repayments of $367,160.

MATERIAL CHANGES IN RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

          Rental and occupancy charges increased for the quarter
ended December  31, 1998 to $1,837,898 as compared to $1,628,011
for the quarter ended December 31,  1997.  This increase was due
primarily to acquisitions made during fiscal 1998 and 1999.

     Interest and other income decreased by $190,598 for the
quarter ended December 31, 1998 as compared to the quarter ended
December 31, 1997.   This was due primarily to a gain on sale of
Securities Available for Sale of $190,233 for the quarter ended
December 31, 1997.

     Interest expense increased by $76,873 for the quarter ended
December 31, 1998 as compared to the quarter ended December 31,
1997.  This was the result of additional borrowings for the new
acquisitions made during fiscal 1998 and 1999.

     Depreciation expense increased by $112,459 for the quarter
ended December 31, 1998 as compared to the quarter ended December
31, 1997,  due to  the  real estate acquisitions in fiscal 1998
and 1999.

     Funds from operations (FFO), defined as net income,
excluding gains (or losses)  from sales of depreciable assets,
plus depreciation decreased from  $968,543 for the quarter ended
December 31,  1997 to $942,207 for the quarter  ended  December
31,  1998.   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 increased
during the quarter ended  December 31,  1998 to $1,154,100  as
compared to  $1,076,698 generated  during  the  quarter ended
December  30,  1997.

          The Company owns twenty properties of which fourteen
carried mortgage loans totaling  $29,682,622 at December 31,
1998.  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
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 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.
