                 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)


Note A - Interim Financial Information

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of BF Enterprises, Inc. 
(the "Company") and its subsidiaries have been prepared pursuant to the rules
and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and, in
management's opinion, include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation
for the interim period reported.  Certain information and note disclosures
normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant
to SEC rules or regulations.  It is suggested that these financial statements be
read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included
in the Company's Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1997 and in the
Company's Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 1998.

Note B - New Accounting Pronouncement

In the first quarter of 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" (SFAS 130).
SFAS 130 requires the reporting of income in a format that includes income from
operations added to unrealized gains or losses from investments in marketable
securities, which are accounted for as a separate component of stockholders'
equity.  Comprehensive income has been presented in the accompanying
Consolidated Statements of Stockholders' Equity.

Note C - Earnings Per Share

In March 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" (SFAS 128). 
SFAS 128 requires the disclosure of basic earnings per share and modifies
existing guidance for computing fully diluted earnings per share.  Under the new
standard, basic earnings per share is computed as earnings divided by weighted
average shares, excluding the dilutive effects of stock options and other
potentially dilutive securities.  Diluted earnings per share give effect to
such dilutive securities.  The Company adopted the disclosure requirements of

                 1998                    $ 1,707,200
                 1999                      1,826,000
                 2000                      1,848,000
                 2001                      1,936,000
                 2002                      1,953,600
                 2003 and after            4,285,600


On January 1, 1996, as required by generally accepted accounting principles, the
Company began amortizing on a straight-line basis (1) income from the new lease
with Bank One, resulting in annual real estate leasing income of $1,815,000 for
the period ending February 28, 2005, and (2) a related $423,000 lease
commission, with annual amortization expense of $46,000 over the same period.

Note E -      Real Estate Inventory Held for Current Sale and Land
              Held for Future Development

Real estate inventory held for current sale and land held for future development
consists primarily of approximately 476 acres in the Company's master-planned,
mixed use development known as Meadow Pointe near Tampa, Florida.  The parcels
within this project are in various stages of development.  Parcels on which the
Company has completed substantially all of its development activities are
considered to be held for current sale.  Parcels on which development is not yet
complete are considered to be held for future development. These assets were
carried at a cost of $15,023,000 at June 30, 1998 and $13,529,000 at
December 31, 1997, which the Company believes was less than their fair value.

                 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)



It is the Company's policy to review and update its projections on the Meadow
Pointe project on a regular basis.  Periodic cumulative adjustments to cost of
sales are made to reflect the results of these reviews.  As a result, gross
margins and related percentages, derived on a period to period basis, may not
be directly comparable.

Note F - Stockholders' Equity

From time to time, the Company purchases shares of its common stock, primarily
in the open market.  During the six months ended June 30, 1998, the Company
purchased 24,400 shares of its common stock for an aggregate amount of $204,000.
During the six months ended June 30, 1998, the Company purchased 35,000 shares
of its common stock for an aggregate amount of $228,000.

Item 2.       Management's Discussion and Analysis of
              ----------------------------------------
              Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
              ---------------------------------------------

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

   Net income of $743,000 and $1,268,000 in the three months and six months
ended June 30, 1998, included gains of $770,000 and $1,270,000 from sales of
property within the Company's Meadow Pointe project near Tampa, Florida.  In the
three months and six months ended June 30, 1997, net income was $716,000 and
$1,561,000 and included gains of $675,000 and $1,418,000, respectively, from
sales of Meadow Pointe property.  The Company sold 146 developed residential
lots at Meadow Pointe during the six months ended June 30, 1998, which
represented a 2% decrease from the same period of 1997.

   Meadow Pointe sales results for the six month ended June 30, 1997 included
aggregate revenue and cost of $274,000 and $166,000, respectively, for a
two-acre church site, a one-acre day care center site and a model home.  There
were no such revenues or costs in the comparable 1998 period.

   The Company's reported gains from property sales at Meadow Pointe are based
in part upon estimates of the total revenues and costs to be derived by the
Company over the life of the project.  The Company periodically reviews these
estimates and makes cumulative adjustments to reflect any revised estimates.
Property sales at Meadow Pointe are dependent upon, among other things, the
strength of the general economy in the Tampa area, residential mortgage
interest rates, competitive residential developments serving the same group of
home buyers and other factors related to the local Tampa real estate market.
 
   Interest and dividends from investments accounted for $56,000 and $112,000 of
revenues in the three months and six months ended June 30, 1998, respectively,
and $73,000 and $137,000 in comparable periods in 1997.  The decline in
investment revenue in 1997 was due to a reduction in the amount of funds
available for investment.
 
   General and administrative expenses in the three months and six months ended
June 30, 1998 were, respectively, $48,000 and $116,000 higher than in the
comparable periods in 1997, due principally to higher employee compensation and
benefits expenses and higher than anticipated legal fees.


Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

   At June 30, 1998, the Company held $4,024,000 in cash, cash equivalents and
marketable securities, as compared to $2,319,000 for all short-term and
long-term liabilities.

    From time to time the Company purchases shares of its common stock,
primarily in the open market (see Note F of Notes to Financial Statements).

   The Company's business plan calls for substantial expenditures during the
next several years relating to the planned development of Meadow Pointe.  The
Company anticipates that these expenditures will be financed through the
issuance of capital improvement revenue bonds by a community development
district, cash generated from operations, cash and cash equivalents on hand and
bank borrowings.

   During the period February 1992 through March 1997, the two community
development districts encompassing the Meadow Pointe project issued 
approximately $60,700,000 of capital improvement revenue bonds.  Presently one
of those districts is considering the issuance and sale of between $10,000,000
and $15,000,000 of such bonds to provide financing for infrastructure
improvements in the remaining parcels of that district.

   The statements in this Report on Form 10-QSB regarding Meadow Pointe
property sales, financing of Meadow Pointe expenditures and any other statements
which are not historical facts are forward looking statements.  Such statements
involve risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, competition,
general economic conditions, ability to manage and continue growth and other
factors detailed in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.  Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or
should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual outcomes may vary
materially from those indicated.

                           PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
 

Item 1.      Legal Proceedings
             -----------------

             In March 1998, an action was commenced in the Pasco County, Florida
             Circuit Court against a subsidiary of the Company and others
             relating to the Meadow Pointe development.  The Amended Complaint
             alleges that certain individuals who purchased homes assumed that a
             homeowners association had been established for the development.
             Plaintiffs seek money damages from all defendants named in the
             Amended Complaint, except for the Company's subsidiary.  The only
             relief sought against the Company's subsidiary is an injunction
             compelling the subsidiary to operate and maintain architectural
             control at Meadow Pointe.  

             On July 2, 1998, the Court granted the subsidiary's motion to sever
             and denied the subsidiary's motion to dismiss.  Accordingly, on
             July 13, 1998, plaintiffs filed a Severed Complaint against the
             Company's subsidiary, which seeks injunctive relief and declaratory
             relief, but no damages.

             In addition to seeking an injunction as described above, 
             plaintiffs' Severed Complaint seeks a declaration concerning the
             rights and powers of the recently established voluntary homeowners
             association for Meadow Pointe, to which the Company's subsidiary
             had assigned certain of its rights pursuant to Declarations of
             Restrictions recorded in the public records of Pasco County,
             Florida. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses
             to the claims made against its subsidiary, and it intends to
             vigorously contest the action.
 

Item 6.      Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K.
