position  as of March 31,  1998 and the results  of its operations and its
cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997.

Item 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS 
        OF OPERATIONS
            
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and  Results of
Operations contains forward-looking statements including those concerning
Management's expectations regarding the future financial performance and
future events. These forward-looking statements involve significant  risk and
uncertainties, including  those described herein. Actual results  may differ
materially from those anticipated by such forward-looking statements.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The most significant  demand on the  Trust's liquidity is  dividends paid  to
investors of approximately $4.9 million per quarter.  The Trust currently has
an annual dividend rate of $1.30 per share, paid in quarterly installments of
$.325 per  share. Funds for dividends come from interest income received  on
PIMs, PIMIs, MBS, cash and cash equivalents net of operating expenses,and the
principal  collections  received  on  PIMs, PIMIs  and  MBS. The portion of
dividends funded from principal collections reduces the capital resources of
the Trust.  As the capital resources of the Trust decrease, the total cash
flows to the Trust will also decrease which may result in periodic adjustments
to the dividends paid to the investors.

The Trust's investments in PIMs and PIMIs, in  addition  to  providing
guaranteed or insured  monthly principal and interest payments, may provide 
the Trust with additional  income through participation  in the  cash generated
by the operations of  the underlying properties and a  portion of the 
appreciation realized upon the sale or refinancing of the underlying
properties. The Trust's participation  interests and  the interest  payments
on the Additional Loan portion of the PIMIs are neither insured nor
guaranteed and will depend primarily on the successful operation  of the 
underlying properties. Seven of the Trust's eight  PIMIs funded the 
construction of multi-family housing, which require time to  achieve
stabilized operations following completion of construction.   With  this  in
mind,the Trust required the borrowers to establish reserves and escrows with  
Additional Loan proceeds to provide funds for the Additional Loan base 
interest payments during the construction and lease-up periods.    As these
reserves become depleted, full payment of the Additional Loan base interest
will depend primarily on whether the underlying property can generate
sufficient operating cash flow.  For 1998, Mountain View and Red Run have  
sufficient escrows to make the required Additional  Loan base interest payments
if operations can not support such payments. In  addition,the Trust received  
the scheduled semi-annual interest payments on the Additional  Loans related 
to Park Highlands and The Season. The workouts related  to Lifestlyes  and 
Windward Lakes will only be paid if there is any surplus cash generated from
each of the propertys operations. Management is closely monitoring the
operating performances of the remaining  properties.

Overall, the  Trust's ability to meet  its objectives will depend  primarily 
on the operating performance of the properties underlying the PIMs and PIMIs. 

Park Highlands is being marketed for a  sale.  The borrower on the PIMI  has
informed the Advisor that he expects a sale transaction  may be  completed
during the second quarter 1998, and the first mortgage loan and the Additional


                                         -11-

Loan will be paid  off. Should a sale transaction occur, the Trust  will
receive its preferred return as well as its share of any increase in the
property s value, as it is determined by the purchase price.

Coconut Palm  Club  continues to  generate  operating  deficits.   The  local
market remains highly competitive, and Coconut Palm Club must compete against
affordable single-family homes as well as other apartment communities, either
newly built or recently renovated. Coconut Palm Club is unable to generate
sufficient operating income to correct deferred maintenance items that
adversely affect the market s  perception of the property or to launch an
aggressive marketing campaign to draw more traffic to the property.   The
borrower on  the  Coconut Palm  Club  PIMI is  still searching  for  
additional equity to  bring into the  deal, and  the Advisor expects  to 
negotiate a loan restructure to  provide  some interim  debt  service  relief 
until the market stabilizes.

For the first five  years of the PIMs and PIMIs the borrowers  are prohibited
from repaying.For the second five  years, the borrowers can repay  the loans
and pay the  greater of a prepayment penalty  or all participation interest for
PIMs, or by paying all amounts due under the PIMIs  and satisfying the required
preferred return. The participation features and Additional Loans are neither
insured nor guaranteed and if repayment of a  PIM  or  PIMI  results  from
foreclosure on the underlying property or an insurance claim the Trust would
not receive any participation interest or any amounts due under the Additional
Loan. The Trust has the option to call PIMs and PIMIs by accelerating their
maturity if the loans are not repaid by the tenth year after permanent
funding. The Trust will determine the merits of exercising the call option
for each PIM or PIMI as economic conditions  warrant. Such factors as  the
condition of the asset, local market conditions, interest rates and available
financing will have an impact on this decision.

Assessment of Credit Risk

The  Trust's  investments in  mortgages  are  guaranteed  or  insured by  the
Federal National Mortgage Association ( FNMA ),the Federal Home Loan Mortgage
Corporation ("FHLMC"),  the Government  National Mortgage Association (GNMA)
and the Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") and therefore the
certainty of their cash flows and the risk of material loss of the  amounts
invested depends on the creditworthiness of these entities.

FNMA is a  federally-chartered   private   corporation   that  guarantees
obligations originated under its programs. FHLMC is  a federally-chartered
corporation that guarantees  obligations originated under its programs and is
wholly-owned by the twelve Federal Home Loan Banks. These obligations are not
guaranteed by the U.S.Government or the Federal  Home Loan Bank Board. GNMA
guarantees the full and timely payment of principal and basic interest on the
securities it issues,  which represents an interest in pooled mortgages insured
by HUD.Obligations insured  by HUD, an agency of the U.S. Government, are
backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.

The Trust's Additional Loans have similar risks as those associated  with
higher risk debt instruments, including: reliance on the owner's operating
skills, ability to maintain occupancy levels, control operating expenses,

maintain  the  properties  and  obtain  adequate insurance coverage; adverse
changes in general economic conditions,adverse local conditions, and changes
in governmental regulations, real  estate zoning laws, or  tax laws;and other
circumstances over which the Trust may have little or no control.

The Trust includes in  cash and cash equivalents approximately $8 million of
commercial paper,which is issued by entities with a credit rating equal  to
one of the top two rating categories of a nationally recognized statistical
rating organization.

Operations

The following discussion relates to the operations of the Trust during  the
three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997

Net income for the first quarter of 1998 decreased by approximately $2,132,000
as compared to the first quarter of 1997 primarily due to the Timber Ridge
PIMI prepayment during the first quarter of 1997. The decreases in
participation income, additional loan interest and  base interest of
$1,322,000, $525,000 and $223,000, respectively, due to the borrower of the
Timber Ridge PIMI prepaying the first mortgage and Additional Loan during the
first quarter of 1997. Other interest income also decreased  due to the Trust
having lower short-term investment balances during the first quarter of 1998
when compared to the corresponding period in 1997 as a result of the special
dividend of $13.8 million.This special dividend occurred during  the 3rd
quarter of 1997 and was funded from the prepayment proceeds from the Timber
Ridge PIMI and Canyon Ridge PIM.These decreases  were slightly  offset by
lower total expenses of  $86,000. The Trust generally funds a portion of  its
dividends with principal collections which will continue to reduce the assets
of the Trust thereby reducing the income generated by the Trust in the future.
