                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF
           THE PRUDENTIAL VARIABLE CONTRACT REAL PROPERTY PARTNERSHIP
                           SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 AND 1999
                                   (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1:  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying unaudited financial statements included herein have been
prepared in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States 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 nine months ended September 30, 2000
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ended December 31, 2000. For further information, refer to the financial
statements and notes thereto included in each Partner's December 31, 1999
Annual Report on Form 10K.

NOTE 2:  COMMITMENT FROM PARTNER

In 1986, Prudential committed to fund up to $100 million to enable the
Partnership to acquire real estate investments. Contributions to the Partnership
under this commitment were utilized for property acquisitions, and returned to
Prudential on an ongoing basis from the contract owners' net contributions and
other available cash. The amount of the commitment is reduced by $10 million for
every $100 million in current value net assets of the Partnership. Thus, with
$213 million in net assets, the commitment has been automatically reduced to $80
million. As of September 30, 2000, Prudential's equity interest in the
Partnership, on a cost basis, under this commitment was $44 million. Prudential
does not intend to make contributions during the 2000 fiscal year and will begin
to phase out this commitment over the next several years.

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 nine months
ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 management fees incurred by the Partnership
were $2,020,562 and $2,027,470 respectively.

The Partnership also reimburses Prudential for certain administrative services
rendered by Prudential. The amounts incurred for the nine months ended September
30, 2000 and 1999 were $87,472 and $87,305 respectively, and are classified as
administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

NOTE 4:  INVESTMENT IN REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST (REIT)

On March 30, 1999, the Partnership exchanged 506,894 shares of Meridian REIT for
557,583 shares of ProLogis REIT, fair value of $10,942,566, and receivable of
$1,013,796 (or total fair value of $11,956,362) as a result of ProLogis'
acquisition of Meridian. Management continued applying a 3% discount to the
market value of the ProLogis REIT shares through June 29, 1999 because of the
restriction which limits the number of shares that can be publicly traded during
any six month period to 30% of the total shares originally acquired. The
application of the 3% discount was discontinued on June 30, 1999 because this
restriction no longer applied.

NOTE 5:  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On October 26, 2000, the Partnership sold the office complex located in
Morristown, New Jersey. The total proceeds received were approximately $12.9
million, resulting in a realized gain for the current year of approximately $0.2
million.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OF OPERATIONS
-------------

All of the assets of the Real Property Account (the "Account") are invested in
the Prudential 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").

The following analysis of the liquidity and capital resources and results of
operations of the Partnership should be read in conjunction with the Financial
Statements and the related Notes to the Financial Statements included elsewhere
herein.

(a) LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of September 30, 2000, the Partnership's liquid assets consisting of cash,
cash equivalents and marketable securities were $23.0 million, an increase of
$6.2 million from December 31, 1999. This increase was primarily due to the sale
of REIT shares and operations of the Partnership's properties which were offset
by a distribution to a Partner of $8.0 million on June 28, 2000. Sources of
liquidity include net cash flow from property operations, interest from
short-term investments, and dividends from REIT shares.

The Partnership's investment policy allows up to 30% investment in cash and
short-term obligations, although the Partnership generally holds approximately
10% of its assets in cash or liquid instruments. At September 30, 2000, 10% of
the Partnership's assets consisted of cash and cash equivalents and marketable
securities.

In 1986, Prudential committed to fund up to $100 million to enable the
Partnership to acquire real estate investments. Contributions to the Partnership
under this commitment have been utilized for property acquisitions, and returned
to Prudential on an ongoing basis from contract owners' net contributions and
other available cash. The amount of the commitment is reduced by $10 million for
every $100 million in current value net assets of the Partnership. Thus, with
$213 million in net assets, the commitment has been automatically reduced to $80
million. As of September 30, 2000, Prudential's equity interest in the
Partnership, on a cost basis, under this commitment was $44 million. Prudential
does not intend to make any contributions during the 2000 fiscal year and will
begin to phase out this commitment over the next several years.

On June 28, 2000, the Partnership made an $8 million distribution to the
Partners, while on February 2, 1999 a distribution of $30 million was made to
the Partners. Additional distributions may be made to the Partners during 2000,
taking into consideration anticipated cash needs of the Partnership including
potential property acquisitions, property dispositions and capital expenditures.
Management anticipates that its current liquid assets and ongoing cash flow from
operations will satisfy the Partnership's needs over the next twelve months and
the foreseeable future.

During the first nine months of 2000, the Partnership spent approximately $3.3
million in capital expenditures. Approximately $1.4 million was associated with
the renovation of the apartment complex located in Jacksonville, FL. The
remaining $1.9 million balance was primarily associated with capital
expenditures in relation to leasing activity at one of the office properties
located in Brentwood, TN as well as the offices located in Morristown, NJ and
Beaverton, OR.

(b) RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following is a brief year-to-date and quarterly comparison of the
Partnership's results of operations for the periods ended September 30, 2000 and
1999.

</TABLE>


The Partnership's net investment income for the nine months ended September 30,
2000 was $10.2 million, an increase of $0.7 million from net investment income
of $9.5 million in the corresponding period in 1999. The Partnership's net
investment income for the quarter ended September 30, 2000 was $3.4 million,
an increase of $0.2 million from net investment income of $3.2 million in the
corresponding period in 1999.

Revenue from real estate properties was $17.1 million for the nine months
ended September, 30 2000, an increase of $1.4 million, or 8.8%, from $15.7
million in the corresponding period in 1999. This increase was primarily due
to the Partnership's acquisition of a controlling interest in an apartment
complex located in Jacksonville, FL. Revenue from real estate properties was
$5.6 million for the third quarter of 2000, an increase of $0.4 million, or
7.7%, from $5.2 million in the corresponding quarter in 1999.

Equity in income of real estate partnership increased $0.7 million during the
first nine months of 2000, and $0.3 million during the third quarter of 2000, as
a result of the acquisition of the Partnership's equity investment interest in
the retail portfolio located in the Kansas City, MO area. This interest was not
acquired until September 30, 1999.


                                       17
<PAGE>

Dividend income from real estate investment trusts was $1.2 million for the
first nine months of 2000, an increase of $0.4 million or 47.2% from the
corresponding period in 1999. This increase was primarily due to higher amounts
invested in real estate investment trusts. A significant increase in the
Partnership's investment in REIT shares took place in the latter part of the
second quarter 1999. Therefore, dividend income for the first nine months of
2000 represents a full nine months of dividend income activity on the increased
investment, while the first nine months of 1999 only include approximately 4 1/2
months dividend income from the increased investment.

Interest on short-term investments decreased approximately $0.5 million or 36.9%
for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 due primarily to a significantly
lower average cash balance. Cash and cash equivalents during the first nine
months of 2000 averaged approximately $18.2 million compared to approximately
$36.5 million for the first nine months of 1999.

Administrative expenses increased $0.4 million, or 25.1%, to $1.8 million during
the first nine months of 2000 when compared to the corresponding period in 1999.
Administrative expenses for the third quarter of 2000 increased $0.1 million or
26.9% to $0.5 million when compared to the third quarter of 1999. These
increases were primarily due to the acquisition of a controlling interest in an
apartment complex located in Jacksonville, FL.

Operating expenses increased $0.5 million or 18.7% to $3.2 million during the
first nine months of 2000 when compared to the corresponding period in 1999.
Operating expenses increased $0.2 million or 18.8% to $1.1 million when compared
to the third quarter of 1999. These increases were primarily a result of the
Partnership's acquisition of a controlling interest in the apartment complex
located in Jacksonville, FL.

Interest expense increased $0.5 million during the first nine months of 2000,
and $0.2 million during the third quarter of 2000, when compared to the
corresponding periods in 1999. These increases were a result of the
Partnership's acquisition of a controlling interest in the apartment complex
located in Jacksonville, FL, which was acquired subject to $10.2 million in
debt.

Minority interest in consolidated partnership increased $11,785 during the first
nine months of 2000, and $45,531 during the third quarter of 2000. These
increases were a result of the Partnership's controlling joint venture
investment in the apartment complex located in Jacksonville, FL.


OFFICE PROPERTIES

Net investment income from property operations for the office sector decreased
approximately $1.2 million or 22.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2000
when compared to the corresponding period in 1999. Net investment income from
property operations for the office sector decreased approximately $0.4 million
or 23.8% during the third quarter of 2000 when compared to the corresponding
period in 1999. These decreases were primarily due to lower revenue levels
experienced by the Oakbrook Terrace, IL office complex during 2000 as a result
of the lease termination fee received from one of the tenants during 1999
coupled with a corresponding decrease in occupancy at this same office property.
A 36% decrease in occupancy at one of the Brentwood, TN office properties also
contributed to the decrease.

The six office properties owned by the Partnership experienced a net unrealized
loss of approximately $2.5 million during the first nine months of 2000 compared
to a net unrealized loss of $3.1 million in the corresponding period in 1999.

The largest share (52%) of the net unrealized loss experienced during the first
nine months of 2000 was primarily due to the office property located in Oakbrook
Terrace, IL. This approximate $1.3 million value decrease was due to a lease
termination associated with 45% of the space and weaker market conditions. The
Beaverton, OR and Brentwood, TN office properties also experienced net
unrealized losses of approximately $0.5 million each primarily due to capital
expenditures on the properties that were not reflected as an increase in market
value.

The majority of the $3.1 million net unrealized loss during the first nine
months of 1999 was attributable to the


                                       18
<PAGE>

office complex located in Oakbrook Terrace, IL. This $1.6 million value decrease
was due to costs associated with re-leasing and expected vacancy resulting from
the upcoming lease termination exercised by a tenant. The Beaverton, OR office
property also experienced a net unrealized loss of approximately $0.8 million.
This decline in value is partially attributable to reduced investor demand for
suburban office. The Lisle, IL office property also experienced a net unrealized
loss of approximately $0.6 million primarily due to capital expenditures on the
property that were not reflected as an increase in market value.

The office properties experienced a net unrealized loss of approximately $0.2
million during the third quarter of 2000 compared to a net unrealized gain of
$0.9 million in the corresponding period in 1999. The loss for the third quarter
of 2000 consisted of $0.4 million at the Beaverton, OR property and $0.4 million
at the Brentwood, TN office complexes for the reasons discussed above.
Offsetting these net unrealized losses was a net unrealized gain of $0.6 million
experienced by the office complex located in Morristown, NJ which was under
contract to sell. The majority of the $0.9 million unrealized gain experienced
in 1999 was primarily the result of the Oakbrook Terrace, IL property
experiencing a $0.7 million net unrealized gain as a result of increased market
rent levels at the property.

Occupancy at the Morristown, NJ property increased from 97% at September 30,
1999 to 100% at September 30, 2000, while occupancy at the Lisle, IL office
property decreased from 88% at September 30, 1999 to 87% at September 30, 2000.
Occupancy at one of the Brentwood, TN office complexes decreased from 95% to 59%
from September 30, 1999 to September 30, 2000, while occupancy at the other
Brentwood, TN office property increased from 95% to 100%. Occupancy at the
Oakbrook Terrace, IL office complex decreased from 100% at September 30, 1999 to
55% at September 30, 2000, while occupancy at the Beaverton, OR office complex
decreased from 100% at September 30, 1999 to 95% at September 30, 2000. As of
September 30, 2000 all vacant spaces were being marketed.

APARTMENT COMPLEXES

Net investment income from property operations for the apartment sector was $2.5
million for the first nine months of 2000, an increase of $0.9 million or 57.3%
compared with the corresponding period in 1999. Net investment income from
property operations for the apartment complexes was $0.8 million for the third
quarter of 2000, an increase of $0.1 million or 20.6% compared with the
corresponding period in 1999. These increases were primarily due to the
acquisition of the controlling interest in the apartment complex located in
Jacksonville, FL.

The apartment complexes owned by the Partnership experienced a net unrealized
gain of $0.6 million and a net unrealized loss of $0.2 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 respectively. The largest share of the
unrealized gain for 2000 or $0.3 million was experienced by the apartment
complex located in Atlanta, GA primarily due to increases in rental rates and
stabilized occupancy. The apartment complex located in Raleigh, NC also
experienced a net unrealized gain of $0.2 million due to increases in rental
rates. The net unrealized loss of $0.2 million during the first nine months of
1999 was experienced by the Atlanta, GA apartment complex which decreased in
value as a result of the final real estate tax bill being approximately $80,000
higher for the year than was originally anticipated. This unexpected increase in
real estate taxes affects the property's current and future cash flow and
resulted in a decrease in market value.

The apartments experienced a net unrealized gain of $0.1 million and a net
unrealized loss of $0.6 million for the quarters ended September 30, 2000 and
1999 respectively. The majority of the unrealized gain in 2000 was experienced
by the Raleigh, NC property due to increases in rental rates as discussed
previously. The majority of the net unrealized loss in 1999 was experienced by
the property located in Atlanta, GA which decreased in value approximately $0.6
million due to higher than anticipated real estate taxes as discussed
previously.

The occupancy at the Atlanta, GA complex remained unchanged at 98% as of
September 30, 1999 and September 30, 2000. Occupancy at the apartment complex in
Raleigh, NC also remained unchanged at 96% as of September 30, 1999 and
September 30, 2000. Occupancy at the Jacksonville, FL apartment complex
decreased from 93% as of September 30, 1999 to 92% as of September 30, 2000.
This vacancy is largely a result of renovations at the project.


                                       19
<PAGE>

As apartments are renovated, they are then re-leased at higher rates. As of
September 30, 2000, all available vacant units were being marketed.

RETAIL PROPERTIES

Net investment income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 for
the Partnership's retail property located in Roswell, GA was approximately $2.1
million for both periods. Net investment income for the third quarter of 2000
and 1999 was approximately $0.7 million for both periods.

The retail property experienced a net unrealized loss of $0.3 million and a net
unrealized gain of $0.3 million for the first nine months of 2000 and 1999,
respectively. The unrealized loss experienced by the property in 2000 was due to
lower income projections, resulting primarily from lower income growth rate
projections, coupled with capital expenditures which did not increase the market
value of the property. The increase in value for 1999 was attributable to
improved market conditions.

The retail property experienced a net unrealized loss of $0.2 million and $0.1
million for the third quarter of 2000 and 1999, respectively. The net unrealized
loss for the third quarter 2000 was attributable to the lower income projections
and growth rate projections discussed previously. The net unrealized loss for
the third quarter 1999 was attributable to capital expenditures on the property
that were not reflected as an increase in market value.

On September 30, 1999, the Partnership invested in an equity joint venture of
retail centers located in the Kansas City, MO area. During the nine months ended
September 30, 2000, income from this investment amounted to $0.7 million, while
income for the quarter ended September 30, 2000 was $0.3 million. This
investment experienced a net unrealized gain during the first nine months of
2000 of $0.2 million, and a net unrealized loss for the third quarter 2000 of
$0.1 million, primarily due to capital expenditures on the properties that were
not reflected as an increase in market value.

Occupancy at the shopping center located in Roswell, GA decreased from 100% as
of September 30, 1999 to 96% as of September 30, 2000. The retail portfolio
located in the Kansas City, MO area had an average occupancy of 95% as of
September 30, 2000 compared to an average occupancy of 88% as of September 30,
1999. As of September 30, 2000, all vacant spaces were being marketed.

INDUSTRIAL PROPERTIES

Net investment income from property operations for the industrial properties
increased from $0.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 to $1.1
million for the corresponding period in 2000. The majority of the increase was a
result of increased occupancy at the property located in Aurora, CO. Net
investment income from property operations for the industrial properties
remained unchanged at $0.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 and
September 30, 2000.

The three industrial properties owned by the Partnership experienced a net
unrealized loss of approximately $1.3 million and a net unrealized gain of $0.1
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The
majority of the decrease for 2000 was attributable to the Aurora, CO industrial
property, which had a loss of approximately $0.7 million due to more
conservative assumptions regarding rental rates, lease-up time and terminal
capitalization rates used by the appraiser. In addition, capital expenditures
were incurred at the property which were not reflected as an increase in market
value. The industrial property located in Bolingbrook, IL experienced an
unrealized loss of $0.6 million during the first nine months of 2000. This loss
was due to the expiration of the single tenant lease with no replacement tenant
being signed as of yet. The majority of the $0.1 million unrealized gain for
1999 was attributable to the Aurora, CO industrial property due to improved
market conditions as evidence by higher market rental rates and the faster
absorption of vacant space.

The three industrial properties owned by the Partnership experienced a net
unrealized loss of approximately $0.2 million and a net unrealized gain of $0.3
million for the quarters ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.


                                       20
<PAGE>

The decrease in unrealized appreciation for the third quarter 2000 is
attributable to the Bolingbrook, IL property for the reasons discussed
previously. The increase in unrealized appreciation for the third quarter 1999
is also attributable to the Aurora, CO property for the reasons previously
discussed.

The occupancy at the Bolingbrook, IL property decreased from 100% as of
September 30, 1999 to 0% as of September 30, 2000. The occupancy at the Salt
Lake City, Utah property remained unchanged at 34% from September 30, 1999 to
September 30, 2000. The current tenant at the property is experiencing financial
difficulty, and their continued operations are questionable at this time. The
Aurora, CO property's occupancy rate increased to 75% as of September 30, 2000
from 67% as of September 30, 1999. As of September 30, 2000, all vacant spaces
were being marketed.


REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUSTS

The Partnership recognized a net realized gain from real estate investment
trusts of $2.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 primarily as
a result of the sale of the Partnership's remaining investment in 386,208
ProLogis REIT shares and sales of shares within the Partnership's investment in
a REIT fund. The Partnership recognized a net realized gain from real estate
investment trusts of $0.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2000
primarily as a result of the sales of shares within the Partnership's investment
in a REIT fund.

The Partnership's investment in REIT shares experienced an unrealized gain of
$1.2 million and an unrealized loss of $3.4 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. During the quarters ended September
30, 2000 and September 30, 1999, the Partnership's investment in REIT shares
experienced an unrealized gain of $1.1 million and an unrealized loss of $3.3
million, respectively. These changes in unrealized gain and loss reflect changes
in the market value of REIT shares held by the Partnership.

Management applied a 3% discount to the market value of the ProLogis REIT shares
through June 29, 1999 because of a restriction which limited the number of
shares that could be publicly traded during any six month period. This discount
was discontinued on June 30, 1999 because this restriction no longer applied.


OTHER

Other net investment income decreased $0.7 million during the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 compared to the corresponding period last year. Other net
investment income includes interest income from short-term investments,
investment management fees, and expenses not related to property activities. The
decrease in other net investment income during the first nine months of 2000 was
primarily due to a decrease in interest income on short-term investments
primarily as a result of the Partnership maintaining a significantly lower cash
balance when compared to the corresponding period last year.

Other net investment income increased $0.1 million during the third quarter of
2000 compared to the corresponding quarter last year primarily because expenses
not related to property activities decreased when compared to the same period
last year.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
-------------------------------------------------------------------

The Account and the Partnership are not subject to significant exposure to
market rate risk for changes in interest rates because the Partnership's
financial instruments consist primarily of short-term fixed rate commercial
paper and neither the Account nor the Partnership use derivative financial
instruments. Further, by policy, the Partnership places its investments with
high quality debt security issuers, limits the amount of credit exposure to any
one issuer, limits duration by restricting the term, and holds investments to
maturity except under rare circumstances.
