                               September 30, 1999


Note 1  Basis of  Presentation - The financial  statements have been prepared by

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, 1999 through  September  30, 1999,  and
January 1, 1999 through September 30, 1999

     For the quarter  ended  September  30,  1999,  the Company had total income
before sale of properties of $188,000 compared to $177,000 for the quarter ended
September 30, 1998.

     The  Company's  expenses  for the  quarter  ended  September  30, 1999 were
$34,000 compared to $38,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1998.

     The Company reported net income of $408,000 for the quarter ended September
30, 1999  compared to $281,000 for the quarter ended  September  30, 1998.  This
increase was primarily  attributable  to gain on sale of properties of $255,000,
compared to $142,000 for the comparable prior period. Without regard to property
sale gains, the net income was $153,000 compared to $139,000.

     The Company reported total income before sale of properties of $621,000 for
the nine  months  ended  September  30, 1999  compared to $592,000  for the same
period in the prior fiscal year.  This increase can be attributed to an increase
in mortgage income of $156,000,  a decrease in temporary  investment interest of
$57,000, and an extraordinary increase in investment's value of $73,000 in 1998

     For the nine months  ended  September  30,  1999,  the  Company's  expenses
totaled  $132,000  compared to $146,000  for the same period in the prior fiscal
year.  The Company  reported  net income of $756,000  for the nine months  ended
September 30, 1999 compared to $658,000 in 1998.

     The  Company  reported  a decrease  in cash and  temporary  investments  of
$1,837,000. This decrease resulted primarily from the distribution of $2,832,000
in cash  dividends  during  the  operating  period of  January  1, 1999  through
September 30, 1999.

     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
improved 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  two land  sales  during the period of July 1, 1999
through   September  30,  1999.  The  first  sale  resulted  from  the  sale  of
approximately 8 acres of property located in Peoria,  Arizona, which the Company
acquired through foreclosure on Loan No. 11. The Company received  approximately
$508,000  in cash from this sale.  The second sale was a 4.4 acre parcel of land
which the  Company  acquired  through  foreclosure  on Loan No.  6. The  Company
received a note in the amount $4,700 and $736 in cash from this sale. During the
first  half  of  1999,   the  Company   completed   three  land  sales  totaling
approximately 15 acres of property located in Pinal County,  Arizona,  which the
Company  acquired  through  foreclosure  on Loan  No.  6. The  Company  received
approximately $8,000 in cash and $15,500 in notes receivable from these sales.

     On September 13, 1999 the Company  announced  that it had purchased in open
market  transactions  16,500  shares of its Class A Common  Stock in the past 45
days. It is the Company's intent to retire these shares. The purchases were made
pursuant  to a  continuing  authorization  granted  by the  Company's  board  of
directors.  That  authorization  provides that the Company may from time to time
purchase  shares  of  Arizona  Land  Income  Corporation  stock in  transactions
effected in the open market or through privately  negotiated  transactions.  The
board has  authorized  the  repurchase of up to 500,000  shares at such times as
management  may  determine  that a  purchase  under the  program  is in the best
interests of the Company and its shareholders.

ITEM 2. (CONT.)

     On September  15,  1999,  the Company  purchased an 11.4286%  interest in a
$1,232,000  Note with the Unity Church.  The note with the Unity Church resulted
from property acquired through foreclosure on Loan No. 10. The purchase price of
this transaction was approximately $138,000.

     On September 21, 1999, the Company  declared a $.10 per share dividend with
a record date of October 1, 1999,  and payable on October  15,  1999.  The total
amount distributed to shareholders was approximately $235,000.  During the third
quarter of 1999,  the  Company  paid a dividend of $1.10 per share with a record
date of July 1, 1999, and payable July 15 1999. The total amount  distributed to
shareholders was approximately  $2,596,000.  The Company also paid a dividend of
$.10 per share on April 15, 1999, distributed to shareholders of record on April
6, 1999.

     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.

     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 9, 1999,  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.
