                  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, 2000 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, 1999  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. There were  no  options
included  in the diluted weighted average shares outstanding  for
the  three and nine months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999.  Options
for  320,000  shares were excluded for the three and nine  months
ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 since they were anti-dilutive.

NOTE 3 - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)

     Total   comprehensive  income,  including  unrealized  gains
(loss)  on securities available for sale, for the three and  nine

NOTE 7 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     In  March 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) issued Interpretation No. 44 "Accounting for Certain
Transactions Involving Stock Compensation, an Interpretation of
APB Opinion No. 25".  The interpretation clarifies certain issues
with respect to the application of Accounting Principles Board
Opinion No. 25 "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB
Opinion No. 25).  The interpretation results in a number of
changes in the application of APB Opinion No. 25 including, the
accounting for modifications to equity awards as well as
extending APB Opinion No. 25 accounting treatment to options
granted to outside directors for their services as directors. The
provisions of the interpretation were effective July 1, 2000 and
apply prospectively, except for certain modifications to equity
awards made after December 15, 1998.  The initial adoption of the
interpretation did not have a significant impact on the Company's
financial statements.

           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  by  operating
activities  of  $3,596,711   for   the  current  nine  months  as
compared  to  $3,238,923   for the  prior  period.   The  Company
raised  $3,833,722  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,  2000
amounted to $3,463,627.

      Securities  available  for  sale  increased  by  $3,327,865
primarily  as  a  result  of additional purchases  of  $4,197,039
partially  offset  by sales of $215,542 and an  increase  in  the
unrealized  loss  of   $653,632.  Management believes  that  this
decline  in value is temporary in nature.  Net unrealized  losses
on  securities available for sale has declined by $947,565 or 41%
from $2,323,655 at March 31, 2000.

           Mortgage notes payable increased by $1,435,378  during
the nine months ended June 30, 2000.  This increase was primarily
due   to  the  additional  mortgage  of  $3,000,000  on  the  new
acquisition   partially   offset  by  principal   repayments   of
$1,564,622.

     Loans payable increased by $1,432,640 during the nine months
ended  June 30, 2000.  This increase was the result of additional
take-downs in the amount of $5,118,288 of the Company's revolving
credit line partially offset by repayments of $3,685,648.

MATERIAL CHANGES IN RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

           Rental  and occupancy charges increased for the  three
months  ended  June  30,  2000  to  $2,100,008  as  compared   to
$2,019,749  for the three months  ended June 30,  2000.    Rental
and  Occupancy charges increased for the nine months  ended  June
30,  1999  to $6,467,512 as compared to $5,957,049 for  the  nine
months ended June 30, 2000.  These increases were a result of the
new  acquisitions made in 1999 and 2000 and additional  occupancy
charges  due  to  the  reassessment of a  warehouse  facility  in
Illinois partially offset by the sale of the Monsey property.

     Investment  and Other Income increased by $226,641  for  the
three  months ended June 30, 2000 as compared to the three months
ended  June  30, 1999. Investment and Other Income  increased  by
$863,499  for the nine months ended June 30, 2000 as compared  to
the  nine months ended June 30, 1999.  This was due primarily  to
an increase in investment income as the result of the increase in
securities available for sale.


                             Page 8

<PAGE>

      Interest expense increased by $159,208 for the three months
ended  June  30, 2000 as compared to the three months ended  June
30,  1999.  Interest expense increased by $594,031 for  the  nine
months  ended June 30, 2000 as compared to the nine months  ended
June  30,  1999.  This  was primarily the  result  of  additional
borrowings  for the new acquisitions and purchases of  securities
available for sale made during fiscal 2000 and 1999.

     Real estate taxes decreased by $129,661 for the three months
ended  June  30, 2000 as compared to the three months ended  June
30,  1999. Real estate taxes decreased by $193,632 for  the  nine
months  ended June 30, 2000 as compared to June 30,  1999.   This
was  due primarily to the sale of the Monsey property as well  as
the retroactive reassessment of  a warehouse facility in Illinois
during  the  fiscal 1999.   Since  the  tenantleases   provide
for  the payment of real estate  taxes  by  the tenants, there
was a corresponding increase in occupancy charges.

     Operating expenses decreased by $54,338 for the three months
ended  June  30, 2000 as compared to the three months ended  June
30,  1999.  Operating expenses decreased by $60,391 for the  nine
months  ended June 30, 2000 as compared to the nine months  ended
June 30, 1999.  These decreases were due primarily to the sale of
the Monsey property.

      Office  and General Expenses increased by $60,936  for  the
three months ended June 30,
2000 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 1999.  Office
and  General  Expenses increased by $57,042 for the  nine  months
ended June 30, 2000 as compared to the nine months ended June 30,
1999.   These  increases were due primarily  to  an  increase  in
professional fees.

      Depreciation  expense increased by $57,696  for  the  three
months ended June 30, 2000 as compared to the three months  ended
June 30, 1999.  Depreciation expense increased by $99,240 for the
nine  months  ended June 30, 2000 as compared to the nine  months
ended  June  30,  1999.   This  was  due  to   the   real  estate
acquisitions in fiscal 1999.

     Gain On Sales Of Assets - Investment Property decreased by
$6,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000 as compared to
the three months ended June 30, 1999.  Gain on Sales of Assets -
Investment Property decreased by $1,169,694 for the nine months
ended June 30, 2000 as compared to the nine months ended June 30,
1999.  This was  due to the sale of the Monsey property in fiscal
1999 partially offset by the payoff of the installment sale
mortgage loan on the Bonim Associates property in fiscal 2000.

     Funds from operations (FFO), is defined as net income,
excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable assets,
plus depreciation.  FFO which includes  gains on the installment
sale of land in the amount of $88,631 and $12,000 for the nine
months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, increased to
$4,006,256 for the nine  months ended June 30, 2000 from
$2,952,713 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 by operating activities amounted to
$3,596,711 and $3,238,923 during the nine months ended  June 30,
2000 and 1999, respectively.


     The Company owns twenty-two properties of which seventeen
carried mortgage loans totaling  $36,673,137 at June 30, 2000.
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.


     The   Company  seeks  to  invest  in  well-located,   modern
buildings  leased  to credit worthy tenants on long-term  leases.
In  management's opinion, newly built facilities  leased  to  The
Federal   Express  Corporation  (FDX)  subsidiaries   meet   this
criteria.    The  Company  is  considering  five  FDX   (or   FDX
subsidiaries) leased properties for purchase.  This could  result
in  a  concentration of FDX and FDX subsidiary leased properties.
This is a risk factor that shareholders should consider.  FDX  is
a  publicly-owned  corporation and information on  its  financial
business   operations  is  readily  available  to  the  Company's
shareholders.  Because of the contingent nature of  contracts  to
purchase  real property, the Company announces acquisitions  only
on closing.



YEAR 2000

      The  Company has experienced no significant impact  of  its
operations  or  its  ability  to  accurately  process   financial
information  due to a Year 2000 related issue.  In addition,  the
Company  has no information that indicates a significant  tenant,
vendor  or  service provider may be unable to meet  their  rental
obligations,  sell  goods  or provide  services  to  the  Company
because  of  Year  2000  issues.  The Company  will  continue  to
monitor its operations for Year 2000 related issues.
