     Note 1:  Reference is made to Notes to Audited Consolidated Financial
Statements appearing in the Trust's Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended,
for the year ended December 31, 1994.

     Note 2:  The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements
are prepared in accordance with instructions to Form 10-Q and in the opinion
of management, include all material adjustments (consisting only of normal
recurring accruals) which are necessary for a fair presentation of the
results for the interim periods shown.  The results for the three month
period ended March 31, 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results to
be expected for the full year.

     Note 3:  The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
REIT-Santa Maria Properties, Ltd., a limited partnership in which the Trust
is general partner and has significantly all the partnership capital.  The
accounts of the limited partnership have been consolidated with those of the
Trust as of April 15, 1981, the date when the partnership interest was
acquired.

     Note 4:  No provision has been made for income taxes as the Trust
believes that it qualifies as a real estate investment trust under Sections
856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code and under similar state statutes.

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

OVERVIEW

     Real Estate Investment Trust of California is a regionally focused,
self-administered equity real estate investment trust which owns a
diversified portfolio of real estate investments.  The Trust currently
invests primarily in apartment communities which offer attractive current
returns, solid potential for long-term appreciation and earnings growth.  The
continuing policy of the Trust is to emphasizecurrent returns rather than the
realization of capital gains through property dispositions, although in
furtherance of the strategy emphasizing apartment investments, the Trust is
contemplating the possible disposition of certain shopping center
investments.  Revenues of the Trust consist primarily of rental income
derived from its portfolio of income-producing properties and to a much
lesser extent interest income from secured notes receivable.

     The Trust continues to focus on equity investments in apartment
communities in various diversified markets, including Northern and Southern
California, Arizona and Nevada.  Market conditions have adjusted investment
yields of apartment communities more in line with the general real estate
market for investment grade real estate.  In furtherance of this strategic
focus, during 1994 the Trust acquired nine apartment communities totaling
1,381 units. These and prior acquisitions are the basis of a major impact on
the financial operations of the Trust.  No apartment communities were
acquired in the first quarter of 1995, as the Trust focused its activities on
the management of its core portfolio of assets.

     The Trust acquired the following apartment properties in 1991, 1992,
1993 and 1994:

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Trust has lines of credit with Sanwa Bank ($29,000,000) and Union
Bank ($7,500,000) for use in the acquisition of income producing properties
and general operating purposes, including the payment of distributions to
shareholders.  Reference is made to the Notes to the Trust's 1994 Annual
Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for full details of the terms of these lines
of credit.  As of March 31, 1995, the Trust had outstanding balances on the
lines of credit of $28,000,000.

     On November 1, 1994, the Trust sold the La Verne Towne Center, La Verne,
California, for a net sales price of $13,300,000.  The funds were used to
reduce outstanding borrowings under the Trust's lines of credit and for
property acquisitions.

     As the owner of real estate, the Trust is subject to risks arising in
connection with the underlying real estate such as defaults or nonrenewal of
the leases, increased operating costs, environmental problems, financing
availability, changes in real estate and zoning laws and increases in real
property tax rates.  The success of the Trust

also depends upon trends of the economy, including interest rates, income tax
laws, governmental regulation and legislation, and population changes.

     As a real estate investment trust, the Trust is required under the
Internal Revenue Code to distribute to its Shareholders at least 95% of its
taxable income.

</TABLE>

     Revenues and real estate expenses have increased from March 31, 1994 to
March 31, 1995 primarily due to 1994 property acquisitions and improvements
in occupancies and operating performances of existing apartment investments.
As new investments were acquired, depreciation expense has increased.  In
March 1994, the Trust funded the Prudential Insurance Company of America
$55,000,000 unsecured note payable.  The interest on this borrowing is the
major portion of the increase in interest expense between the periods.  These
funds were used to fund 1994 property acquisitions.  The operating costs
increased due to the 1994 property acquisitions totaling 1,381 apartment
units, as shown in the table above.

     Expenses related to apartment operations, which include payroll of
on-site personnel (such as resident managers, leasing staff, maintenance and
janitorial staff), utilities, advertising, direct office expenses and
management fees, have increased in direct relation to acquisitions of those
properties.  All operating expenses for apartment complexes, including real
property taxes and insurance, but excluding depreciation, range from
approximately 35% to 40% of gross scheduled income.  This compares to retail
and commercial properties, which are generally leased on a "net" basis with
the tenant paying operating expenses.

     The retail portfolio continues to experience weakness in rental rates
and occupancy due to the effects of the Southern California economy.
