                           (Unaudited)
                                
The   following   unaudited  pro  forma  consolidated   financial
statements  of  Duke Realty Investments, Inc. (DRE)  reflect  the
acquisition  by  DRE of the properties listed in this  Form  8-K,
Item 5. The pro forma consolidated financial statements have been
prepared  based  upon  certain  pro  forma  adjustments  to   the
historical  consolidated financial statements of DRE.  Share  and
per share amounts in the consolidated financial statements of DRE
have  been  restated to reflect the two-for-one  split  of  DRE's
common stock payable on August 25, 1997 to common shareholders of
record on August 18, 1997.

The  accompanying unaudited pro forma consolidated balance  sheet
as  of  June  30,  1997 has been prepared as  if  the  properties
acquired subsequent to June 30, 1997 had been acquired as of  the
balance sheet date.

The  accompanying unaudited pro forma consolidated statements  of
operations  for  the year ended December 31,  1996  and  the  six
months  ended June 30, 1997 have been prepared as if the property
acquisitions had occurred as of January 1, 1996. Interest expense
and  dividends  on preferred stock were adjusted to  reflect  the
cost of the pro forma line of credit borrowings and the preferred
stock   issuance  that  would  have  been  required   for   these
acquisitions.

The  unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements do not
purport to be indicative of the results which would actually have
been obtained had the transactions described above been completed
on  the  dates indicated or which may be obtained in the  future.
The  unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements should
be  read  in conjunction with the combined statements of revenues
and  certain expenses for the properties included herein and  the
financial statements of DRE.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
- ----------------------------
To the Directors
DUKE REALTY INVESTMENTS, INC.:

We  have  audited the accompanying combined statement  of
revenues and certain expenses (the Combined Statement) of
the  Group A Properties described in note 1 for the  year
ended  December 31, 1996. This Combined Statement is  the
responsibility  of management. Our responsibility  is  to
express  an opinion on this Combined Statement  based  on
our audit.
  
We  conducted  our  audit  in accordance  with  generally
accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that
we  plan  and  perform  the audit  to  obtain  reasonable
assurance about whether the Combined Statement is free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on  a
test   basis,   evidence  supporting  the   amounts   and
disclosures  in  the Combined Statement.  An  audit  also
includes  assessing the  accounting principles  used  and
significant  estimates  made by management,  as  well  as
evaluating  the  overall  presentation  of  the  Combined
Statement.   We  believe  that  our  audit   provides   a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

The  accompanying Combined Statement was prepared for the
purpose  of  complying with the rules and regulations  of
the  Securities and Exchange Commission and for inclusion
in  Form 8-K to be filed by Duke Realty Investments, Inc.
as  described in note 2. The presentation is not intended
to  be  a  complete presentation of the combined revenues
and expenses of the Group A Properties.

In  our opinion, the Combined Statement referred to above
presents  fairly, in all material respects, the  combined
revenues and certain expenses as described in note  2  of
the  Group  A Properties for the year ended December  31,
1996,  in  conformity with generally accepted  accounting
principles.

   Use of Estimates

   The  preparation of the Combined Statements in conformity with

   reported  in  the Combined Statements and accompanying  notes.
   Actual results could differ from those estimates.

   consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a  fair

   period  are  not necessarily indicative of the results  to  be
