                       NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF 
               PRUCO LIFE VARIABLE  CONTRACT  REAL  PROPERTY ACCOUNT
                         FOR THE PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 1998
                                          
                                          

NOTE 1:   GENERAL

Pruco Life Variable Contract Real Property Account (the "Real Property Account")
was established on August 27, 1986 and commenced business September 5, 1986. 
Pursuant to Arizona law, the Real Property Account was established as a separate
investment account of Pruco Life Insurance Company ("Pruco Life"), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of The Prudential Insurance Company of America
("Prudential").  The assets of the Real Property Account are segregated from
Pruco Life's other assets.  The Real Property Account is used to fund benefits
under certain variable life insurance and variable annuity contracts issued by
Pruco Life. These products are Variable Appreciable Life Insurance ("VAL"),
Variable Life Insurance ("VLI"), Discovery Life  ("SPVA"), and Discovery Life
Plus ("SPVL").

The assets of the Real Property Account are invested in The Prudential Variable
Contract Real Property Partnership (the "Partnership").  The Partnership is
organized under New Jersey law and is registered under the Securities Act of
1933.  The Partnership is the investment vehicle for assets allocated to the
real property option under certain variable life insurance and annuity
contracts.  The Real Property Account, along with The Prudential Variable
Contract Real Property Account and the Pruco Life of New Jersey Variable
Contract Real Property Account, are the sole investors in the Partnership.

The investment in the Partnership is based on the Real Property Account's
proportionate interest of the Partnership's market value.  At June 30, 1998 the
Real Property Account's interest in the Partnership was 49.9% or 5,909,533
shares.

The Partnership has a policy of investing at least 65% of its assets in direct
ownership interests in income-producing real estate and participating mortgage
loans.


NOTE 2:   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying unaudited financial statements of the Real Property Account
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. These
statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
thereto for the year ended December 31, 1997 included in the Real Property
Account's Annual Report on Form 10-K for that year.

The accompanying financial statements have not been audited by independent
accountants in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, but in the
opinion of management such financial statements include all adjustments,
consisting only of normal recurring accruals, necessary to summarize fairly the
Real Property Account's financial position and  results of operations.  Interim
results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.


NOTE 3:   INVESTMENT INFORMATION FOR THE PRUDENTIAL VARIABLE CONTRACT REAL
PROPERTY PARTNERSHIP

As of  June 30, 1998, the investment in the Partnership of $113,167,806 was
derived from the share value of  $19.150073 and 5,909,533 shares outstanding. 
The aggregate cost of investments in the Account was $63,772,991.

NOTE 5:   MORTALITY RISK AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGES

Mortality risk and expense charges are determined daily using an effective
annual rate of  0.6%, 0.35%, 0.9% and 0.9% for VAL, VLI, SPVA and SPVL,
respectively.  Mortality risk is that life insurance contract owners may not
live as long as estimated or annuitants may live longer than estimated and
expense risk is that the cost of issuing and administering the policies may
exceed the estimated expenses.  Of the $266,159 of charges to contract owners,
$255,569 represented mortality risk and expense risk charges.

                           NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF
                PRUDENTIAL VARIABLE CONTRACT REAL PROPERTY PARTNERSHIP
                                    JUNE 30, 1998
                                     (UNAUDITED)


NOTE 1:   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
     
The financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. 
Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 1998 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31,
1998.  For further information, refer to the financial statements and notes
thereto included in each Partner's December 31, 1997 Annual Report on Form 10K.
     


NOTE 2:  COMMITMENT FROM PARTNER

On January 9, 1990, Prudential committed to fund up to $100 million to enable
the Partnership to take advantage of opportunities to acquire attractive real
property investments whose cost is greater than the Partnership's then available
cash.  Contributions to the Partnership under this commitment are utilized for
property acquisitions and returned to Prudential on an ongoing basis from
Contract owners' net contributions. Also, the amount of the commitment is
reduced by $10 million for every $100 million in estimated market value net
assets of the Partnership. The amount available under this commitment for
property purchases as of June 30, 1998 is approximately $45 million.


NOTE 3:  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Pursuant to an investment management agreement, Prudential charges the
Partnership a daily investment management fee at an annual rate of 1.25% of the
average daily gross asset valuation of the Partnership.  For the six months
ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 management fees incurred by the Partnership were
$1,391,475 and $1,279,797 respectively.

The Partnership also reimburses Prudential for certain administrative services
rendered by Prudential.  The amounts incurred for the six months ended June 30,
1998, and 1997 were $58,064 and $57,281, respectively, and are classified as
Administrative Expenses in the Statements of Operations.


NOTE 4:  ACCRUED INVESTMENT INCOME AND OTHER ASSETS

Cash of $116,775 and $128,089 at June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997,
respectively, was maintained by the properties for tenant security deposits and
is included in Accrued Investment Income and Other Assets on the Statement of
Assets and Liabilities.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS 

All of the assets of Pruco Life Variable Contract Real Property Account ("the
Account") are invested in the Pruco Life Variable Contract Real Property
Partnership ("the Partnership").  Correspondingly, the liquidity, capital
resources and results of operations for the Real Property Account are contingent
upon the Partnership.  Therefore, all of management's discussion of these items
is at the Partnership level.  The partners in the Partnership are the Prudential
Insurance Company of America, Pruco Life Insurance Company,  and Pruco Life
Insurance Company of New Jersey (collectively, "the Partners"). 

(a) Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 1998, the Partnership's liquid assets consisting of cash, cash
equivalents and marketable securities (excluding the Partnership's shares in
Meridian Industrial Trust REIT) were $32 million;  an increase of $5.1 million
from $26.9 million as of December 31, 1997.  The increase is due primarily to
cash received from the operations of the Partnership's properties and interest
income received from short-term investments.   

Prudential has committed to fund up to $100 million to enable the Partnership to
acquire real estate investments.  Contributions to the Partnership under this
commitment are utilized for property acquisitions and returned  to Prudential on
an ongoing basis  from Contract owners' net contributions.  The amount of the
commitment is reduced by $10 million for every $100 million in current value net
assets of the Partnership.  The amount available for future investment is
approximately $45 million as of June 30, 1998. 

The Partnership will generally invest 10-15% of its assets in cash and 
short-term obligations to maintain liquidity; however, its investment policy
allows up to 30% investments in cash and short-term obligations.  At June 30,
1998, 13.89% of the Partnership's assets consisted of cash, cash equivalents and
marketable securities (excluding the REIT shares).

Withdrawals from cash may be made during the remainder of 1998 based upon the
needs of the Partnership including potential property acquisitions and
dispositions and capital expenditures.  As of June 30, 1998 the Partnership 
has adequate liquidity.

(b) Results of Operations 

The Partnership's net investment income for the first six months of 1998 was
$7.6 million, level with $7.7 million for the corresponding period of 1997.  

Net investment income from property operations for office buildings for the
first six months of 1998 increased 10.3% or $0.3 million from the prior year. 
This was primarily due to an increase in income generated by the acquisition 
of the Brentwood, TN office building in the fourth quarter of 1997, and an 
increase in income at the Morristown, NJ office building due to a tenant 
lease buyout.  Net investment income from industrial properties decreased 23% 
or $0.3 million from the prior year due to the sale of the Partnership's 
investments of four Jacksonville, FL warehouses in September, 1997.

The Partnership's income unrelated to specific properties (which is mainly
interest income from short-term investments) for the period ended June 30, 1998
amounted to $0.7 million compared to $1.3 million in the corresponding period in
1997.  This was due to a smaller balance held in Cash and Cash Equivalents
through the first six months of 1998 compared to the corresponding period in
1997.

The Partnership experienced a net unrealized loss for the first six months in
1998 of $0.2 million, a decrease of $1.4 million from the unrealized gain of 
$1.2 million in the corresponding period of the prior year.  In 1998, the 
office sector of the portfolio had a net unrealized gain of $2.7 million due 
to generally higher market rental rates in four of the portfolios' office 
centers. This gain was offset by an unrealized loss of $1.7 million at the 
Atlanta, GA retail center due to differing appraisal assumptions regarding 
the general investment market for this asset, as well as the unrealized loss 
of $1.2 million from the portfolio's holdings

(c) Contingent Transactions

currently being marketed for sale.
