Acquisitions and Disposition of Real Estate Related Assets

         On March 25, 1996, Milestone Asset Management, Inc. ("MAMI"), one of
the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries, purchased, in a negotiated
transaction, $9,599,500 of the BB rated Class of Series 1995-C1 commercial
mortgage pass-through certificates (the "Certificates") from Merrill Lynch
Mortgage Investors, Inc. ("MLMI"), an unaffiliated third party, for $8,452,060
including accrued interest. MAMI used $2,113,015 of available cash and borrowed
the remaining amount of $6,339,045 from MLMI. Concurrent with this purchase
MAMI entered into a transaction to mitigate the interest rate risk associated
with the purchase of the Certificates. MAMI sold short $9,500,000 par value of
5.75% U.S. Treasury Notes maturing August 15, 2003, and invested the proceeds
in repurchase contracts.

         As of April 30, 1996, the Company terminated, by written notice, the
master lease on the Property located in Chili, New York (the "Chili Lease"). As
a result of the termination of the Chili Lease, the Company, the tenant under
such lease, assigned all of its rights, title and interest in the Chili
Property to Valley Plaza Associates ("VPA"), the landlord under the Chili
Lease, and VPA assumed all of the Company's related obligations under the Chili
Lease. Neither VPA nor the Company have made the full required payment on the
underlying mortgage loan for such Property located in Chili, NY since May 1,
1996. VPA has made certain partial payments, such payments have been credited
against the Wrap Mortgage.

         On May 24, 1996, the Company recognized its position in the mortgage
receivable on the property located in Roanoke, Virginia as a result of the sale
of such property by its owners. The sale price was approximately $2,150,000,
resulting in a book gain of $393,768 to the Company.


         On August 22, 1996, MAMI purchased, in a negotiated transaction,
$16,700,000 of the B-rated class (the "B-2 Class") of the Commercial Mortgage
Pass Through Certificates, Series 1996 MD V from Nomura Securities for
$11,690,000, plus accrued interest. MAMI used $3,507,000 of available cash, and
borrowed the remaining amount of $8,183,000 through a reverse repurchase
agreement with Nomura. The available cash was generated from a sale, on the
same date, of a portion of the Company's holding of the MDI B-3A Class,
discussed below.



<PAGE>


         Concurrent with the August 22, 1996 purchase, the Company allocated
$10,000,000 of its existing $20,000,000 hedge transaction associated with its
ownership of Nomura Series 1994 - MD I, to the B-2 Class, to protect against
the interest rate risk associated with the purchase. The Company also entered
into a new $5,000,000 hedge transaction, for the same purpose, bringing the
total of hedge positions associated with the B-2 Class to $15,000,000.

         The Series 1996 MD V B-2 Class represents a beneficial ownership
interest in a trust fund primarily consisting of eleven commercial fixed rate
mortgage loans with original terms to maturity of forty years or less, the last
maturing March 11, 2036. The aggregate principal balance of the loans at the
time of purchase was $773,692,578. The B-2 Class represents 4.36% of the
aggregate principal balance of the mortgage pool. MAMI's purchase represented
49.53% of the B-2 Class. The B-2 Class was rated B by Standard & Poor's Ratings
Group, and Duff & Phelps Credit Rating Co.
   
         On August 22, 1996 concurrent with the purchase of the MD V B-2 Class
discussed above, MAMI sold, in a negotiated transaction a portion of its
holding of the B-3A Class of Nomura Series 1994 MDI, previously purchased by
MAMI on December 15, 1995. Of the total $24,839,000 of the B-3A Class held
prior to the sale, the Company sold $12,750,000, for a price of $11,706,094,
plus accrued interest. The Company received $3,640,848 in cash, and used the
remaining $8,065,246 to reduce the balance of the financing on the remaining
portion of the B-3A Class.
    
         On September 19, 1996 MAMI sold, in a negotiated transaction, its
entire holding of $3,259,923 of the B-3 Class of Nomura Series 1994 MDII,
originally purchased by MAMI on March 30, 1995. The sale price was $3,177,916,
plus accrued interest. The Company received $944,614 in cash, and used the
remaining $2,233,302 to pay off the balance of the financing associated with
this asset. The cash generated was applied to general purposes of the Company.
   
         On October 25, 1996 MAMI sold, in a negotiated transaction, its entire
holding of $9,599,500 of the E Class of Merrill Lynch Mortgage Investors Series
1995 C1 ("C1") originally purchased by the Company on March 25, 1996. The sale
price was $8,699,547, plus accrued interest. The Company received $2,310,547 in
cash, and used the remaining $6,389,000 to pay off the balance of the financing
associated with this asset. The cash generated was applied to general purposes
of the Company. Concurrent with the sale, MAMI closed an existing hedge
transaction associated with C1, which had been entered into at the time of
    

purchase to protect against the interest rate risk associated with this asset.

         The first mortgage loan related to the mortgage receivable on the
property located in Prattville, Alabama came due on July 1, 1996 in the amount
of approximately $2,325,000. Such balloon payment has not been made and the
lender has granted the Company an extension until December 16, 1996. The
Company has continued to make full and timely payments of debt service on such
loan.

Liquidity and Capital Resources


   
         The Company will derive from Union Property Investors, Inc. ("UPI"), a
former subsidiary of the Company which the Company spun off in November 1995, a
significant portion of the cash flow needed to fund the Company's obligations
and its real estate investment and development activities (see Item 5 of this
Report). Such cash flow will be primarily attributable to the dividend and 
redemption proceeds the Company expects to receive (1) as the holder of all of 
the 395,834 issued and outstanding shares of UPI's preferred stock, par value 
$.01 per share and a $10 per share redemption value and liquidation preference 
(the "UPI Preferred Stock"), and (2) from the fees to be paid by UPI to the 
Company for administrative and property management services to be provided by 
the Company to UPI. As a result of UPI's redemption of $2,000,000 of the UPI 
Preferred Stock on March 22, 1996, the annual dividend rate on the UPI 
Preferred Stock decreased from 9% to 8% effective January 1, 1996. The 8% 
dividend rate will be in effect to the extent that a minimum of $270,833 of the
UPI Preferred Stock is redeemed quarterly. On each of July 1, 1996 and 
October 1, 1996, UPI redeemed 27,083 shares of the UPI Preferred Stock at a 
quarterly redemption cost of $270,833.
    
         The Company also expects, to the extent necessary, to have adequate
sources of cash and/or cash producing assets to meet the expected future
liquidity needs arising from the fluctuations of gain or loss inherent when
marking to market, monthly, the assets and liabilities associated with the
investment activities of Milestone Asset Management, Inc., one of the Company's
wholly-owned subsidiaries.

         The Company's existing borrowings and the encumbrances on the
properties securing those borrowings may inhibit the Company or result in
increased costs in connection with the Company's ability to incur future
indebtedness and/or raise substantial equity capital in the marketplace.

                          PART II - OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1.         Legal Proceedings.

         On January 30, 1996, the Company, its Board of Directors and Concord
Assets Group, Inc. ("Concord") were named as defendants in an action commenced
in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware. Concord, together with its
affiliates, owns approximately 75% of the Company's common stock, par value
$.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), and its executive officers and directors
are also executive officers and directors of the Company. The plaintiff, a
holder of the Company's $.78 Convertible Series A preferred stock, par value
$.01 per share (the "Series A Preferred Stock"), purports to bring this action
on behalf of himself and other Series A Preferred Stockholders in connection
with (i) the Acquisition, (ii) the Company's transfer (the "Transfer") in
October 1995 of sixteen of its retail properties (the "UPI Properties") UPI,
and (iii) the Company's distribution (the "Distribution") in November 1995 of
all of the shares of UPI's common stock to the holders of the Common stock on a
share-for-share basis and for no consideration. The defendants moved to dismiss
the plaintiff's complaint and, thereafter, the plaintiff amended his original
complaint to allege that (i) the Transfer required the approval of a majority
of the Company's stockholders entitled to vote thereon, which was not obtained,
(ii) the defendants violated the Certificate of Designations for the Series A
Preferred Stock (the "Certificate of Designations") by not enabling the Series
A Preferred Stockholders to convert their stock into shares of UPI stock, (iii)
the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by timing the Distribution to
occur after an adjustment to the conversion ratio and after the cumulative
period for the payment of dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock had ended,
(iv) following the Distribution, the defendants did not make a "good faith
attempt" in their recalculation of the conversion ratio of the Series A
Preferred Stock pursuant to the Certificate of Designations, and (v) the
Acquisition, the Transfer and the Distribution were substantively and
procedurally unfair to the Company, the Series A Preferred Stockholders and the
Common Stockholders (other than certain defendants). The plaintiff seeks, among
other things, certification of the lawsuit as a class action on behalf of all
of the Series A Preferred Stockholders and rescission of the Acquisition, the
Transfer and the Distribution and/or damages. The Company and the other
defendants intend to defend vigorously this action and have moved to dismiss
the amended complaint. After hearing arguments thereon, the court has dismissed
plaintiff's claim for recision of both the Transfer and the Distribution. The
court, however, reserved decision on the defendants motion to dismiss
plaintiff's claim for damages and other relief.
   
Item 5.         Other Information.

 In November 1995, the Company entered into a management services
agreement (the "Management Services Agreement") with Union Property Investors,
Inc. ("UPI") pursuant to which the Company has been providing administrative
services to UPI, and the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Milestone Property
Management, Inc. ("MPMI") entered into a property management agreement (the
"Property Management Agreement") with UPI pursuant to which MPMI has been

providing property management services to UPI.
    
   
         The Company has been informed by UPI that UPI has entered into a 
definitive agreement (the "Merger Agreement") to merge (the "Merger") with and 
into Kranzco Realty Trust, a real estate investment trust ("Kranzco"). The 
merger is subject to certain standard conditions, including approval by UPI's 
stockholders. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Management 
Services Agreement and the Property Management Agreement will be terminated 
upon consummation of the Merger. For the nine month period ended September 30, 
1996, the Company received approximately $722,000 for services provided to UPI 
under the Management Services Agreement, and MPMI received approximately 
$193,000 for services provided to UPI under the Property Management Agreement.
    
   
         In addition, in accordance with the terms of the Merger
Agreement and upon consummation of the Merger, the UPI Preferred
Stock held by the Company, which has a $10 per share redemption value
and liquidation preference on which cumulative dividends currently
accrue at a rate of 8% per annum, will be exchanged for Kranzco's Series
C preferred shares on a share-for-share basis. The Series C preferred
shares to be issued to the Company will have an 8% dividend rate and the
same liquidation preference and redemption price as the UPI Preferred
Stock, and are required to be redeemed over a two-year period following the
consummation of the Merger.
    
   
 The Company does not believe that the termination of the Management
Services Agreement and the Property Management Agreement and the exchange of
the Company's shares of UPI Preferred Stock for Kranzco Series C preferred
shares will, if and when the Merger is consummated, have a material adverse
effect on the Company.
