                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (unaudited)



1.   Organization

     CRI Liquidating REIT, Inc. (the Liquidating Company) is a finite-life,
self-liquidating real estate investment trust (REIT) which previously owned
United States government insured and guaranteed mortgage investments secured by
multifamily housing complexes located throughout the United States (Government
Insured Multifamily Mortgages).  The Liquidating Company was created in November
1989 in connection with the merger of three funds which owned Government Insured
Multifamily Mortgages, all of which were sponsored by C.R.I., Inc. (CRI).

     The Liquidating Company is governed by a board of directors (the Board of
Directors) which includes the two shareholders of CRI.  The Board of Directors
has engaged CRI Insured Mortgage Associates Adviser Limited Partnership (the
Adviser) to act in the capacity of adviser to the Liquidating Company.  The
Adviser's general partner is CRI, and its limited partners include the
shareholders of CRI.  The Adviser (1) manages the Liquidating Company's assets
with the goal of maximizing the returns to shareholders and (2) conducts the
day-to-day operations of the Liquidating Company. The Adviser received fees in
connection with the administration and operation of the Liquidating Company. 
The Adviser also formerly acted in a similar capacity for CRIIMI MAE Inc.
(CRIIMI MAE), a REIT which owns 57% of the Liquidating Company's outstanding
common stock.  However, effective June 30, 1995, CRIIMI MAE became a self-
administered, full service commercial mortgage company and, as a result, the
Adviser no longer advises CRIIMI MAE.

     The Liquidating Company's Board of Directors (the Board of Directors) has
approved a plan of complete liquidation and dissolution (the Plan).  On April
23, 1997, the Liquidating Company's Shareholders approved the adoption of the
Plan.  The Board of Directors will, pursuant to the Plan, dissolve the
Liquidating Company and proceed to dispose of its assets after providing for its
liabilities.  There is no time period required by the Plan or law within which
the Liquidating Company must wind up its affairs and complete its liquidation. 
However, the Liquidating Company believes this process will be completed by mid-
1998.

     As discussed further in Note 5, as of September 30, 1997, in accordance
with the Plan, (1) the Liquidating Company had sold its remaining 11 mortgage
investments, (2) disposed of its interest in two limited partnership
participation agreements and (3) disposed of a portion of its interest in a
third limited partnership participation agreement.  The remaining assets of the
Liquidating Company consist primarily of cash and the remaining equity interest
in one limited partnership.

2.   Basis of Presentation

     In the opinion of the Adviser, the accompanying unaudited financial
statements of the Liquidating Company contain all adjustments (consisting of
only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial
position of the Liquidating Company as of September 30, 1997 and December 31,
1996, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996.

     These unaudited financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain
information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles

presented are adequate to make the information not misleading, it is suggested
that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and the notes included in the Liquidating Company's Annual Report
filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996.

5.   Investment in Mortgages - Continued

     In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115
"Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" (SFAS 115),
the Liquidating Company's Investment in Mortgages was recorded at fair value, as
estimated below, as of December 31, 1996.  The difference between the amortized
cost and the fair value of the mortgage investments represents the net
unrealized gains on the Liquidating Company's mortgage investments and is
reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity.

     The fair value of the mortgage investments is based on quoted market
prices.
                                As of December 31, 1996

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

     As previously stated, during the nine months ended September 30, 1997, the
Liquidating Company disposed of the remaining 11 mortgage investments generating
proceeds of approximately $54 million which resulted in financial statement
gains and tax basis gains of approximately $14 million.  In addition, during the
first nine months of 1997, CRI Liquidating disposed of its interest in two
limited partnership participation agreements and a portion of its interest in a
third limited partnership participation agreements which resulted in net gains
for financial statement purposes of approximately $3.2 million and net tax basis
losses of approximately $250,000.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
          FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Introduction
- ------------
     CRI Liquidating REIT, Inc.'s (the Liquidating Company)Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
contains statements that may be considered forward looking.  These statements
contain a number of risks and uncertainties as discussed herein and in the
Liquidating Company's other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission that could cause actual results to differ materially.

General
- -------
     CRI Liquidating REIT, Inc. (the Liquidating Company), formed in November
1989, is a finite-life, self-liquidating real estate investment trust (REIT)
which made investments in United States government insured and guaranteed
mortgage investments secured by multifamily housing complexes located throughout
the United States.  Pursuant to its Board-approved business plan, the
Liquidating Company disposed of its remaining 11 mortgages in January 1997 and
does not intend to acquire any additional mortgage investments.  Prior to March
31, 1997, the Liquidating Company shares traded on the New York Stock Exchange
under the trading symbol CFR.  As further discussed below, the New York Stock
Exchange (the Exchange) suspended trading of the Liquidating Company shares
before opening on March 31, 1997 in accordance with the Company's plan of
liquidation.  Following the suspension, the Exchange applied to the Securities
and Exchange Commission to delist the shares.

     The Liquidating Company's Board of Directors (the "Board of Directors")
approved a plan of complete liquidation and dissolution (the "Plan") and on
April 23, 1997, the Liquidating Shareholders approved the adoption of the Plan. 
The Board of Directors will, pursuant to the Plan, dissolve the Liquidating
Company and proceed to dispose of its assets after providing for its
liabilities.  There is no time period required by the Plan or law within which
the Liquidating Company must wind up its affairs and complete its liquidation. 
However, the Liquidating Company believes this process will be completed by mid-
1998.

     The Liquidating Company is governed by the Board of Directors which
includes the two shareholders of C.R.I., Inc. (CRI).  The Board of Directors had
engaged CRI Insured Mortgage Associates Adviser Limited Partnership (the
Adviser) to act in the capacity of adviser to the Liquidating Company.  The
Adviser's general partner is CRI, and its limited partners include the
shareholders of CRI.  The Adviser (i) managed the Liquidating Company's assets
with the goal of maximizing the returns to shareholders and (ii) conducted the
day-to-day operations of the Liquidating Company.  The Adviser received fees in
connection with the administration and operation of the Liquidating Company. 
The Adviser also formerly acted in a similar capacity for CRIIMI MAE Inc.
(CRIIMI MAE), a REIT which owns approximately 57% of the Liquidating Company's
outstanding common stock.  However, effective June 30, 1995, CRIIMI MAE became a
self-managed, self-administered company and, as a result, the Adviser no longer
advises CRIIMI MAE.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
          FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Continued

Results of Operations
- ---------------------
1997 Versus 1996
- ----------------
     Total income decreased by approximately $1.1 million or 95% to
approximately $67,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1997 from
approximately $1.2 million for the corresponding period in 1996.  Total income
decreased by approximately $3.6 million or 78% to approximately $1.0 million for
the nine months ended September 30, 1997 from $4.6 million for the corresponding
period in 1996.  The decrease was due primarily to a reduction in mortgage
investment income, as discussed below.

     Mortgage investment income decreased by approximately $1.1 million or 100%
to $0 for the three months ended September 30, 1997.  Mortgage investment income
decreased by approximately $3.5 million or 95% to approximately $192,000 for the
nine months ended September 30, 1997 from approximately $3.7 million for the
corresponding period in 1996.  The decrease was the result of the sale of the
remaining mortgage investments on January 17, 1997 in accordance with the
business plan.  No mortgage income will be earned in future periods.

     General and administrative expenses decreased by approximately $30,000 or
50% to approximately $31,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1997 from
approximately $61,000 for the corresponding period in 1996.  General and
administrative expenses increased by approximately $164,000 or 55% to
approximately $462,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 from
approximately $298,000 for the corresponding period in 1996.  The decrease for
the three months ended September 30, 1997 is due to a decrease in operating
expenses as a result of the dissolution of the company.  The increase for the
nine months ended September 30, 1997 was the result of the recognition of
additional expenses associated with the pending liquidation and dissolution of
the Company.

     Annual fees decreased by approximately $71,000 or 100% to $0 for the three
months ended September 30, 1997.  Annual fees decreased by approximately
$300,000 or 96% to approximately $12,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
1997 from approximately $312,000 for the corresponding period in 1996.  These
decreases were due to the sale of the remaining Liquidating Company's mortgage
base which is a component used in determining the annual fees payable by the
Liquidating Company.  As a result of the first quarter disposition of the
remaining mortgages, no annual fees were paid during the three months ended
September 30, 1997 and no annual fees will be paid in future periods.

     Net gains on mortgage dispositions increased by $7.7 million or 79% to
$17.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 from $9.7 million for
the corresponding period in 1996.  Gains or losses on mortgage dispositions are
based on the number, carrying amounts, and proceeds of mortgage investments
disposed of during the period.  The proceeds realized from the disposition of a
mortgage investment are based on the net coupon rates of the specific mortgage

investments disposed of in relation to prevailing long-term interest rates at
the date of disposition.  The increase in gains from mortgage dispositions was
primarily due to the sale of 11 mortgage investments during the three months
ended March 31, 1997, which resulted in financial statement gains of
approximately $14.1 million and tax basis gains of approximately $14.0 million. 
In addition, during the first two quarters of 1997, CRI Liquidating disposed of
its interest in two limited partnership participation agreements and a portion
of its interest in a third limited partnership participation agreement which
resulted in net gains for financial statement purposes of approximately $3.2
million and net tax basis losses of approximately $250,000.

Liquidity
- ---------
     The remaining assets of the Liquidating Company consist primarily of cash
and cash equivalents and the remaining equity interest in one limited
partnership.  The assets will be distributed in accordance with the plan of
complete liquidation and dissolution.  

     Because the Liquidating Company is a liquidating entity, a substantial
portion of the dividends paid to shareholders represents return of capital.  For
the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, the Liquidating Company paid
dividends of $1.87 and $1.98 per share, respectively, of which approximately
$1.41 and $1.42 per share, respectively, were declared as non-taxable dividends
to shareholders for tax purposes, subject to year-end adjustment.

Cash Flow
- ---------
     Net cash provided by operating activities decreased for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 as compared to the corresponding period in 1996
primarily as a result of a decrease in mortgage investment income due to the
reduction in the mortgage base, as previously discussed.

     Net cash provided by investing activities decreased for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 as compared to the corresponding period in 1996.
This decrease was principally due to a decrease in proceeds from mortgage
dispositions to approximately $56.5 million for the nine months ended September
30, 1997 from approximately $57 million for the corresponding period in 1996. 
Additionally, scheduled principal payments on mortgage investments decreased by
approximately $525,000 as a result of the disposition of the remaining mortgage
investments, as previously discussed.

     Net cash used in financing activities decreased for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 as compared to the corresponding period in 1996 due to a
decrease in dividends paid to shareholders as a result of the decrease in
proceeds from mortgage dispositions and net ordinary income, as previously
discussed.
