                     KENNEDY-WILSON, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                  THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1997, AND 1996
                                  (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 - FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION

         The above condensed financial statements have been prepared by
Kennedy-Wilson, Inc. a Delaware corporation, and subsidiaries (the Company)
without audit by independent public accountants, pursuant to the Rules and
Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The statements, in the
opinion of the Company, present fairly the financial position and results of
operations for the dates and periods indicated.  The results of operations for
interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for
full fiscal years.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the Rules and
Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The Company believes
that the disclosures contained in the condensed financial statements are
adequate to make the information presented not misleading.  These condensed
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996.

         Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year balances to
conform to the current year presentation.

NOTE 2 - NOTES RECEIVABLE

         In February 1997, the Company initiated foreclosure proceedings
against the borrower of one of the Company's notes receivable  which is secured
by a first trust deed with a face value of $6 million, on a commercial property
in Orange County.   No loss is expected to be incurred on this transaction.

NOTE 3 - REAL ESTATE HELD FOR SALE

         In January 1997, the Company purchased a 30,000 square feet office
building in Santa Ana, California for $1.3 million.

         In March 1997, the Company sold the 530 Wilshire Blvd. property in
which it currently resides, for approximately $9.5 million.   The Company has
executed a lease agreement to remain in its current location.   The Company
recognized a gain of approximately $1.7 million on the transaction.


NOTE 4 - MORTGAGE NOTES PAYABLE

         The January 1997 purchase of a 30,000 square feet office building
referred to above was financed by two mortgage notes totaling $1.1 million.
Note A, in the amount of $1.05 million has a variable interest rate of Libor
plus 3.75% and is due January 1999.   Note B, in the amount of $.05 million is
for capital improvements with a fixed rate of 12.49% and is due January 1999.

         The March 1997 sale of the 530 Wilshire property referred to above
included the repayment of a mortgage note in the amount $5.9 million with
proceeds from the sale of the property.

NOTE 5 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

         During the first three months of the year, the Company purchased
89,370 shares of its common stock from a former officer and director in a
private transaction for approximately $938,000.   Per the terms of the
agreement, an initial payment of $200,000 was made on February 28, 1997, (the
"Closing Date") with additional payments of approximately $369,000 due on April
30, 1997 and September 30, 1997.  If payments are not made on  the designated
dates, interest accrues from the Closing Date, at a rate of 10% per annum.
The terms of the agreement also include a termination of employment and mutual
release provision.

NOTE 6 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

         Subsequent to March 31, 1997, the Company purchased 10,000 shares of
its outstanding stock pursuant to two unsolicited offers of sale for a total of
$119,538.95.  The transactions were approved by the Board of Directors.

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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1997 AND 1996.

         Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 1997 decreased 31%
compared to the three months ended March 31, 1996 due primarily to decreased
sales of residential real estate held for sale, offset by a $1.7 million gain
on sale of commercial real estate, which is shown net. Sales of residential 
real estate for the quarter ended March 31, 1996, included significant sales 
from a Hawaii condominium project.  Commission revenue declined 49% due to 
reduced auction and brokerage closings compared to the same quarter last year, 
which included a significant commission from the sale of a large commercial 
property in Los Angeles.

         Operating expenses decreased 25% for the quarter ended March 31, 1997.
The decrease was mainly due to a 64% decline in cost of real estate sold due to
the reduced sales discussed above.  The decrease is offset by increased
general and administrative expenses which includes increased legal fees related
to the collection of notes receivable, increased occupancy expense due to rent
on corporate space not incurred in 1996, and costs associated with opening the
New York office.  Interest expense increased due to increased borrowing under
the lines of credit and notes payable.  Depreciation and amortization expense
increased due to the net addition of two commercial properties.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The Company believes that its cash balance of approximately $2.5
million at March 31, 1997, combined with cash generated from operations and the
$2 million working capital line of credit, will provide funds sufficient to
meet its present and reasonably foreseeable obligations.

         The Company's activities as a principal in real estate and notes
receivable acquisitions requires larger capital resources than has been
required by its marketing and brokerage operations.  As a result, the Company
may periodically need to obtain third party financing for such transactions.
The Company has been successful in obtaining such financing as needed and at
competitive terms.
