Arizona Land Income Corporation
Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 1998
Note 1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION - The financial statements have been
prepared by Arizona Land Income Corporation (the "Company")
without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of the
Company, the unaudited financial statements contain all
adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments)
necessary to present fairly the financial position, the results
of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
Note 2 The results of operations for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1998, are not necessarily indicative of the results
to be expected for the full year.
Note 3 See Item 2, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations for a discussion of mortgages
in default. It is the Company's normal policy to discontinue the
accrual of interest for notes in default as of the default date.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.
Arizona Land Income Corporation (the "Company") is an Arizona
corporation which has elected to be treated as a real estate investment trust (a
"REIT") under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. The statements of operations
filed herewith cover the periods from July 1, 1998 through September 30, 1998,
and January 1, 1998 through September 30, 1998
For the quarter ended September 30, 1998, the Company had total income
of $177,000 compared to $279,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1997. The
total income for the quarter ended September 30, 1997, included an extraordinary
gain of $75,000 which resulted from compensation received on a bridge loan
transaction by the Company. Without this gain, the income for the quarter ended
September 30, 1997 would have been $204,000.
The Company's expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 1998 were
$38,000 compared to $38,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1997. The
Company paid income taxes of $65,500 in the third quarter of 1997.
The Company reported net income of $281,000 for the quarter ended
September 30, 1998 compared to $175,000 for the quarter ended September 30,
1997. This increase was primarily attributable to a gain on sale of properties
of $142,000. Without this sale, the Company's income would have been $139,000.
The Company reported total income of $592,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 compared to $543,000 for the same period in the prior fiscal
year. This increase can be attributed to an increase in mortgage income of
$57,000, an increase in temporary investments income of $21,000 offset by a
decrease in farm income of $28,000.
For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, the Company's expenses
totaled $146,000 compared to $144,000 for the same period in the prior fiscal
year. The Company reported net income of $658,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 compared to $778,000 in 1997.
The Company reported an increase in cash and temporary investments of
$1,873,000. This increase resulted primarily from $853,000 cash proceeds from
land sales and $1,057,000 principal payments received under mortgages. The
Company also distributed $472,000 in cash dividends during the operating period
of January 1, 1998 through September 30, 1998.
Adverse market conditions negatively affected real estate values in the
Southwest during the early 1990's resulting in a decline in real estate values
and an increase in mortgage defaults. The Southwest real estate market has begun
to improve and land values have stabilized and improved in certain instances.
The Company believes that such improvements will reduce the number of loan
defaults or modifications; however, there can be no assurances in this regard.
Nonetheless, the Company will continue to vigorously assert any and all its
legal rights in the event of a default.
The Company completed three land sales during the period of January 1,
1998 through September 30, 1998. The first sale resulted from the sale of a 1
acre parcel of property located in Phoenix, Arizona, which the Company acquired
through foreclosure on Loan No. 17. The Company received $495,000 in cash from
this sale. The second sale was a 635 acre parcel of land which the Company
acquired through foreclosure on Loan No. 3. The Company received a note for
$853,000 and $189,000 in cash from this sale. The third sale was a 33 acre
parcel of raw land in Chandler, Arizona. This property was acquired through the
foreclosure on Loan No. 2. The Company received $168,000 in cash and a note for
$649,000 from this sale.
In July of 1998, the Company received a cash payoff of $256,000 on Loan
No. 9. In January of 1998, the Company received a cash payoff of $557,000 on
Loan No. 3. In February 1998, the Company also received a cash payoff of $54,000
on Loan No. 17-1. These collections were in addition to periodic collections of
principal on other notes.
The Company has two sales pending for parcels of land which the Company
obtained as a result of the foreclosure on Loan No. 11 and Loan No. 19.
On September 18, 1998, the Company declared a $.10 per share dividend
with a record date of October 1, 1998, and payable on October 15, 1998. The
total amount distributed to shareholders was approximately $236,000. During the
second quarter of 1998, the Company paid a dividend of $.10 per share,
distributed to shareholders of record on July 1, 1998, with a payable date of
July 15, 1998. The Company also paid a dividend of $.10 per share on April 15,
1998, distributed to shareholders of record on April 7, 1998.
The Company has not yet completed its evaluation of the impact the Year
2000 computer problem may have on its business. However, the Company does not
expect the consequences of incomplete or untimely resolution of the problem to
materially impact the operation of its business.

ITEM 2. (CONT.)
The Company believes that funds generated from operations will be
sufficient to meet its capital requirements. No other arrangements, such as
lines of credit, have been made to obtain external sources of capital. While no
assurance can be given, the Company believes that such arrangements could be
obtained by the Company, if necessary.
As disclosed in the Company's prospectus used in connection with the
Company's 1988 initial public offering, the Company intended to dissolve within
approximately eight years from the date of such public offering. The precise
date on which the Company will dissolve will be determined by the Company's
Board of Directors and will depend upon market conditions and other pertinent
factors. The Board of Directors also has the discretion to indefinitely continue
the operation of the Company. As of November 4, 1998, the Board has not made a
decision regarding the dissolution of the Company.
The mortgage loan numbers referred to in the above paragraphs are
identifiers for those loans on the books and records of the Company.
Additionally, these numbers are identified in the Company's initial offering
prospectus dated June 6, 1988.
