EXHIBIT "1"
April 17, 1998
Dear Shareholders,
Last fall we announced the beginning of Property Resources Equity Trust's (PRET)
liquidation phase. This report is intended to update you on the progress of
PRET's liquidation. A note in the amount of $710,491 which was carried back on
the sale of the Agora office building has just paid off in full. We intend to
make a distribution of these proceeds with the next dividend payable at the end
of June.
We have also listed for sale the Good Guys Plaza shopping center and anticipate
receiving offers shortly. Although we cannot, of course, assure completion of
the sale of Good Guys Plaza or the timing of liquidation distributions, we
currently anticipate that the property will be sold this year. Assuming, the
sale of Good Guys Plaza and the note proceeds mentioned above, we estimate that
PRET shareholders could receive an aggregate liquidating distribution of
approximately $3.00 per share.
It has come to our attention that one or more parties have recently been
soliciting PRET shareholders with an offer to purchase their shares at $1.25. In
view of the anticipated proceeds from the liquidation of PRET, we believe that
such offers do not adequately reflect the current value of your shares.
Should you have any questions about your investment please call David Popelka at
650/312-5789.
Very truly yours,
/S/ DAVID P. GOSS
David P. Goss
President
