FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

     OMAHA,  NEBRASKA--Mid-America Realty Investments,  Inc. (the "Company") has
announced  net  income and Funds  From  Operations  for the three and six months
ended June 30, 1998.

     For the three and six months ended June 30,  1998,  net income was $864,000
or $.10 per share and  $2,159,000 or $.26 per share,  respectively,  compared to
$1,082,000 or $.13 per share and $2,325,000 or $.28 per share, respectively, for
the same  periods  in 1997.  The  decrease  in net  income for the three and six
months  ended  June  30,  1998,  compared  to the same  periods  in 1997 was due
primarily to  approximately  $375,000 of costs related to the  Company's  merger
agreement with Bradley Real Estate,  Inc.,  which is subject to shareholder vote
on August 5, 1998.  While these costs are  included in  calculating  net income,
they are not considered in determining  Funds From Operations (FFO), as they are
not incurred in the normal course of business, and are not recurring in nature.

     FFO for the three and six months ended June 30, 1998 was $2,601,000 or $.31
per share and $5,238,000 or $.63 per share, respectively, compared to $2,399,000
or $.29 per share and  $4,852,000 or $.59 per share,  respectively  for the same
periods of 1997.  The  increase  in FFO for three and six months  ended June 30,
1998  compared  to the same period in 1997  related  primarily  to the  positive
impact of recent expansion activity, the impact of new leases, and the favorable
interest rate environment.

     Mid-America  Realty  Investments,   Inc.  (NYSE:  MDI)  currently  owns  18
neighborhood shopping centers and four enclosed malls located as follows:  eight
in Nebraska, three in Wisconsin, two each in Indiana and Minnesota, and one each
in Arkansas,  Georgia,  Illinois,  Iowa,  Michigan,  South Dakota and Tennessee.
Additionally,  the  Company  is a 50%  partner  in  Mid-America  Bethal  Limited
Partnership which owns two neighborhood shopping centers,
