                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

               (Unaudited with Respect to the Three Month Periods
                         Ended March 31, 1999 and 1998)


(NOTE 1) - The Company:
- -----------------------

Intervest  Corporation  of New York  (the  "Company")  was  formed  by Lowell S.
Dansker,  Lawrence G.  Bergman and Helene D. Bergman for the purpose of engaging
in the real estate  business,  including  the  acquisition  and purchase of real
estate mortgage loans.

(NOTE 2) - Significant Accounting Policies:
- -------------------------------------------

(a)     Consolidation Policy:

         The  financial  statements  include the  accounts of all  subsidiaries.
Material intercompany items are eliminated in consolidation.

(b)     Mortgage Loans:

         Loans are stated at their outstanding  principal  balances,  net of any
deferred  fees or  costs  on  originated  loans  and  unamortized  discounts  on
purchased  loans.  Interest income is accrued on the unpaid  principal  balance.
Discounts are amortized to income over the life of the related receivables using
the  constant  interest  method.  Loan  origination  fees net of certain  direct
origination  costs are deferred and  recognized as an adjustment of the yield of
the related loans.

(c)     Allowance for losses:

         An  allowance  for loss  related to loans that are impaired is based on
discounted  cash flows using the loan's initial  effective  interest rate or the
fair value of the collateral.  Management's periodic evaluation of the need for,
or  adequacy  of  the  allowance  is  based  on the  Company's  past  loan  loss
experience,  known and inherent risks in the portfolio,  adverse situations that
may  affect the  borrower's  ability  to repay  (including  the timing of future
payments),  the estimated value of the underlying  collateral and other relevant
factors.  This  evaluation  is  inherently  subjective  as it requires  material
estimates  including the amounts and timing of future cash flows  expected to be
received on any impaired loans that may be  susceptible  to significant  change.
For financial  reporting  purposes  mortgages  are deemed to be delinquent  when
payment of either principal or interest is more than 90 days past due.

(d)     Deferred debenture offering costs:

         Costs  relating to offerings of debentures are amortized over the terms
of the debentures based on serial maturities.  Deferred debenture offering costs
consist primarily of underwriters commissions.

               INTERVEST CORPORATION OF NEW YORK AND SUBSIDIARIES

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

               (Unaudited with Respect to the Three Month Periods
                         Ended March 31, 1999 and 1998)



(NOTE 2) - Significant Accounting Policies: (continued)
- -------------------------------------------------------


(e)     Statement of cash flows:

         For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company  considers all
highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or
less to be cash equivalents. Interest and income taxes were paid as follows:

Three Months Ended March 31,       Interest     Income Taxes
- ----------------------------       --------     ------------

          1999                   $1,882,000       $ 234,000
          1998                    1,572,000          22,000

(f)     Estimated fair value of financial instruments:

         The Company  considers  the carrying  amounts  presented  for mortgages
receivable  and  subordinated  debentures  payable on the  consolidated  balance
sheets to be reasonable  approximations of fair value. The Company's variable or
floating  interest  rates on large  portions  of its  receivables  and  payables
approximate   those  which  would  prevail  in  current   market   transactions.
Considerable  judgement is necessarily  required in interpreting  market data to
develop the  estimates of fair value,  and  accordingly,  the  estimates are not
necessarily  indicative  of the  amounts  that the  Company  could  realize in a
current market transaction.

(g)     Use of estimates:

         The  preparation of financial  statements in conformity  with generally
accepted  accounting  principles  requires  management  to  make  estimates  and
assumptions  that  affect the  reported  amounts of assets and  liabilities  and
disclosure of  contingent  assets and  liabilities  at the date of the financial
statements  and the  reported  amounts  of  revenues  and  expenses  during  the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(h)     Concentration of credit risk:

         (1) The  Company  places its  temporary  cash  investments  with higher
credit-quality  financial  institutions,  including a bank,  which is affiliated
with the Company and in governmental obligations. Such investments are generally
in excess of the FDIC  insurance  limit.  The  Company has not  experienced  any
losses from such investments.

(NOTE 2) - Significant Accounting Policies: (continued)
- -------------------------------------------------------

         (2) The  Company's  mortgage  portfolio  is composed  predominantly  of
mortgages on multi-family residential properties in the New York City area, most
of which are subject to applicable rent control and rent stabilization  statutes
and  regulations.  In both cases,  any increases in rent are subject to specific
limitations.  As such,  properties of the nature of those  constituting the most
significant  portion of the Company's mortgage portfolio are not affected by the
general   movement  of  real   estate   values  in  the  same  manner  as  other
income-producing properties,  although there can be no assurances that this will
continue, the rental housing market in New York City remains stable.

(NOTE 3) - Subordinated Debentures Payable:

The Company's  Registered  Floating Rate  Redeemable  Debentures  consist of the

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

               (Unaudited with Respect to the Three Month Periods
                         Ended March 31, 1999 and 1998)


(NOTE 3) - Subordinated Debentures Payable (continued):
- -------------------------------------------------------

Prime was 7 3/4% on March 31, 1999 and on December 31, 1998. Minimum interest is
9 1/2% and maximum interest is 15% on Series 5/13/91. Series 2/20/92 has minimum
interest of 8% and maximum  interest of 14%, Series 6/29/92 has maximum interest
of 14% and  Series  9/13/93,  1/28/94,  10/28/94,  5/12/95,  10/19/95,  5/10/96,
10/15/96 and 4/30/97 due October 1, 2005 have maximum interest of 12%.

Payment of interest on an aggregate of  $16,470,000  of  debentures  is deferred
until maturity and such deferred earns interest at prime.  Any debenture  holder
who has  deferred  receipt of  interest  may at any time  elect to  receive  the
deferred interest and subsequently receive regular payments of interest,  except
holders of Series 11/10/98.

The debentures  may be redeemed,  in whole or in part, at any time at the option
of the Company. For debentures issued after 1996,  redemption would generally be
at a premium of 1% or 2% if the  redemption  is prior to 2000.  After January 1,
2000, Series 11/10/98 debenture holders can require the Company to repurchase up
to $100,000 principal amount of debentures plus accrued interest each year.

The debentures are unsecured and  subordinated  to all present and future senior
indebtedness, as defined.

Maturities of debentures are summarized as follows:

(NOTE 4) - Mortgages Receivable: (continued)
- --------------------------------------------

Interest rates on mortgages  range from 6% to 15%.  Certain  mortgages have been
discounted utilizing rates ranging from 11% to 17%.

During the first quarter of 1999 and 1998,  certain  mortgages were paid in full
prior to their maturity date. This resulted in the recognition of a gain,  which
represents  the  balance  of  the  unamortized   discount  applicable  to  these
mortgages.

Annual  maturities  of  mortgages  receivable  during  the next  five  years are
summarized as follows:

Year Ending December 31,      March 31, 1999

The Company  evaluates its portfolio of mortgage  loans on an individual  basis,
comparing  the amount at which the  investment  is carried to its  estimated net
realizable  value.  At the respective  balance sheet dates,  no allowances  were
required.

(NOTE 5) - Related Party Transactions:
- --------------------------------------

During the first quarter of 1999, the Company  acquired  first  mortgages in the
aggregate principal amount of $5,629,000 from Intervest Bancshares  Corporation,

(NOTE 5) - Related Party Transactions: (continued)
- --------------------------------------------------

The Company utilized  personnel and other facilities of affiliated  entities and
was charged  service  fees for general and  administrative  expenses for placing
mortgages,  servicing mortgages and distributing debenture interest checks. Such
fees  amounted to $72,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998.  Management
believes these service fees are reasonable. Effective January 1, 1999, personnel
performing  the services were  transferred to the Company and  accordingly,  the
appointed entities discontinued charging service fees to the Company.

The Company participates with Intervest Bank in one mortgage. The balance of the
Company's  participation in this mortgage was $205,000 and $237,000 at March 31,
1999 and December 31, 1998,  respectively.  The  stockholders of the Company are
officers, directors and stockholders of the parent of Intervest Bank.

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

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

The Company is engaged in the real estate  business,  including the  origination
and purchase of real estate mortgage loans, consisting of first mortgage, junior
mortgage and wraparound  mortgage loans. The Company's current investment policy
emphasizes the investment in mortgage loans on income producing properties.  The
majority of the Company's loans are expected to mature within approximately five
years.

The Company's liquidity is managed to ensure that sufficient funds are available
to meet  maturities  of  borrowings  or to make other  investments,  taking into
account  anticipated  cash flows and available  sources of funds.  The Company's
principal sources of funds have consisted of borrowings (principally through the
issuance of its subordinated debentures), mortgage repayments and cash flow from
ongoing operations.  The Company recently filed a registration statement related
to the offer and sale of up to $5,500,000  principal  amount of its subordinated
debenture.  Total  stockholder's  equity  at March  31,  1999  was  $11,796,000,
compared  with  $11,568,000  at December 31,  1998.  The Company  considers  its
current  liquidity  and  additional  sources of funds  sufficient to satisfy its
outstanding commitments and its maturing liabilities.

Results of Operations:

Three Months Ended March 31, 1999 and 1998

For the three  months ended March 31, 1999  interest  income was  $2,515,000  as
compared to $2,783,000  for the same period a year ago. The decrease of $268,000
resulted  primarily from a decrease in mortgages  receivable from $86,822,000 at
March 31,  1998 to  $70,896,000  at March 31, 1999 and lower  interest  rates on
certain mortgages.

Interest  expense for the 1999 period was  $2,043,000  as compared to $2,130,000
for the 1998 period. The decrease of $87,000 resulted mainly from lower interest
rates on certain debentures.

General and administrative  expenses for 1999 period was $254,000 as compared to
$181,000 for 1998.  The increase of $73,000  resulted  mainly from  increases in
payroll and  advertising  expenses,  offset in part by a decrease in  management
fee.

The  provision for income taxes are $193,000 and $180,000 for three months ended
March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.  These provisions represent 46% of pretax
income for each period.

Since the Company  intends to continue to expand its asset base,  including  its
mortgage portfolio,  it is anticipated that its interest income will continue to
grow.  To the  extent  that such  growth is funded in  reliance  upon  long-term
obligations,  such as the Debentures,  interest expense will likewise  increase.
Such increase will depend upon the principal amounts of the additional assets or
liabilities, as well as interest rates.

The Company is engaged in the real estate business and its results of operations
are affected by general  economic trends in real estate  markets,  as well as by
trends in the general  economy and the  movement  of interest  rates.  Since the
properties  underlying the Company's  mortgages are concentrated in the New York
City area,  the  economic  condition in that area can also have an impact on the
Company's operations.


                                       14
<PAGE>

The number of instances of prepayment of mortgage loans tends to increase during
periods of  declining  interest  rates and tends to decrease  during  periods of
increasing interest rates. Certain of the Company's mortgages include prepayment
provisions,  and others  prohibit  prepayment of indebtedness  entirely.  In any
event,  the  Company  believes  that  it  would  reinvest  the  proceeds  of any
prepayments  of mortgage  loans in new  mortgages  consistent  with its mortgage
investment policy.

The  rental  housing  market in New York City  remains  stable  and the  Company
expects that such properties will continue to appreciate in value with little or
no reduction in occupancy  rates. The Company's  mortgage  portfolio is composed
predominantly of mortgages on multi-family residential properties, most of which
are subject to  applicable  rent  control and rent  stabilization  statutes  and
regulations.  In both  cases,  any  increases  in rent are  subject to  specific
limitations.  As such,  properties of the nature of those  constituting the most
significant  portion of the Company's mortgage portfolio are not affected by the
general   movement  of  real   estate   values  in  the  same  manner  as  other
income-producing properties.

Business:

The Company is engaged in the real estate business and has historically invested
primarily  in real  estate  mortgage  loans  secured  by income  producing  real
property.  It is anticipated that a substantial  portion of the loans to be made
by the  Company  will be loans  with terms of  approximately  five  years.  Such
transactions  typically  require an  understanding of the underlying real estate
transaction and rapid  processing and funding as a principal basis for competing
in the making of these loans. The Company does not finance new construction.

At March 31, 1999,  48% of the  outstanding  principal  amount of the  Company's
loans (net of discounts)  were secured by properties  located in the greater New
York  metropolitan  area.  The  balance of the  Company's  loans are  secured by
properties located in Connecticut,  the District of Columbia,  Florida, Georgia,
Maryland, New Jersey, suburbs of New York City, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and
Virginia.

Certain of the  Company's  real estate  mortgage  loans bear interest at a fixed
rate. The balance of such loans bear interest at fluctuating rates.  Interest on
the loans is usually payable monthly.

The Company may also,  from time to time,  acquire  interests in real  property,
including fee interests.

Investment Policy-Operations:

The  Company's  current  investment  policy  related  to  mortgages   emphasizes
investments in short-term real estate mortgages secured by income producing real
property, located primarily in the greater New York metropolitan area.

The  properties  to be mortgaged  are  personally  inspected by  management  and
mortgage  loans  are  made  only  on  those   properties   where  management  is
knowledgeable as to operating income and expense.  The Company  generally relies
upon its management in connection with the valuation of properties. From time to
time, however,  it may engage independent  appraisers and other agents to assist
in determining the value of income-producing properties underlying mortgages, in
which case the costs  associated  with such services are  generally  paid by the
mortgagor.

Current Loan Status:

At  March  31,  1999,  the  Company  had 47 real  estate  mortgage  loans in its
portfolio,  totaling  $71,479,000  (face amount) in aggregate  principal amount.
Interest  rates on the mortgage  portfolio  range  between 6% and 15% per annum.
Certain  mortgages have been discounted  utilizing rates between 11% and 17% per
annum.

Certain information concerning the Company's mortgage loans outstanding at March
31, 1999 is set forth below:

                       Carrying
                       Amount of

                       ===========   ===========            ==

The historical  cost of the mortgage loans which  originated in connection  with
the sale of real  estate  includes a discount to reflect an  appropriate  market
interest rate at the date of origination.

Year 2000 Readiness Disclosure:

The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer  programs which were written using
two digits rather than four digits to define the  applicable  year. As a result,
such  programs  may  recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 instead of the
year 2000, which could result in system failures or miscalculations.

The  Company's  operations  are real  estate  related and are handled by desktop
computer  processing.  Such processing utilizes third-party  software.  Software
that  is  used  to  process  the   Company's   general   ledger,   general  cash
disbursements,  cash  receipts  and  loan  accounting  is Year  2000  compliant.
Incidental  calculations  are  performed  on  spreadsheets,  which  are not date
dependent.  The Company's ability to produce revenues is also not dependent upon
computer systems.

The Company also has  subordinated  debentures for which the Company relies on a
third-party  vendor to provide registrar and trustee  services.  Such vendor has
informed the Company that it currently has a continuous  program to achieve Year
2000 compliance for its  mission-critical  systems,  and that the renovation and
testing of such systems has been  substantially  completed.  Should this outside
service  provider not be able to provide  complete  assurance of being Year 2000
compliant,  the Company will terminate its  relationship  and transfer to a Year
2000  compliant  vendor  for the  required  services.  In  connection  with  the
debentures, the Company utilizes third-party software to generate checks for the
payment of interest to the debenture holders. The Year 2000 compliant version of
this software was recently installed and has been tested.

The Company has determined that the costs of making modifications to correct any
Year 2000 issues will not be material.  Although  management  believes  that the
Company will not incur material costs associated with the Year 2000 issue, there
can be no  assurances  that all hardware and software  that the Company will use
will be Year 2000 compliant.  Management  cannot predict the amount of financial
difficulties  it may incur  due to its  customers'  and  vendors'  inability  to
perform according to their agreements with the Company or the effects that other
third  parties may cause as a result of this issue.  Therefore,  there can be no
assurance  that the failure or delay of others to address the Year 2000 issue or
that the costs involved in such process will not have a material  adverse effect
on the Company's business, financial condition, and results of operations.
