NOTES TO PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Dollars in thousands)

A.   The Balance Sheet Pro Forma adjustments reflect the sale  of
     the  391  Forbes Commercial Building as if the sale occurred
     on  June  30,  1996.  A gain of $223 was recognized  by  the
     registrant  which has been adjusted for activity  subsequent
     to June 30, 1996, and through the date of sale (see Note B).
     The   cost   of  investments  in  real  estate,  accumulated
     depreciation, prepaid expenses and deposits, deferred costs,
     notes  payable and other liabilities have been  adjusted  by
     their  respective balances at June 30, 1996.  The registrant
     received cash proceeds of $660,000 from this sale.

B.   The  Pro  Forma Statements of Operations for the six  months
     ended  June  30, 1996, and for the year ended  December  31,
     1995,  reflects  the loss from continuing operations  before
     reflecting any amounts attributable to the sale of  the  391
     Forbes  Commercial Building in August, 1996.   It  has  been
     assumed that administrative expenses would not change  as  a
     result of the sale.

     The  gain of $223 from the property sale which has not  been
     reflected  in  the  Pro Forma Statement of  Operations,  was
     determined as follows:

          <S>                              <C>

          Gain on sale of rental property  $  223

C.   The  Pro Forma Statements of Operations for the three months
     ended  June  30, 1996, and for the year ended  December  31,
     1995,  reflects  the  pro  forma adjustment  to  remove  the
     segments  of  operations  that  have  been  discontinued  to
     present the registrant on an ongoing continuing operations.
