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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998 AND 1997.

        Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 1998 decreased 25%
compared to the three months ended March 31, 1997 due primarily to decreased
sales of commercial and residential real estate held for sale. Gain on sale
of commercial real estate during the first quarter of 1997 included the sale of
530 Wilshire property in Santa Monica, CA. There were no such sales in the
first quarter of 1998. Sales of residential real estate during the first
quarter of 1997 included sales of one unit at Villa del Este property in
Corona, CA and sales of six units at the Vista Waikoloa property in Kona, HI,
compared to sales of one unit at the Villa del Este property and none at the
Vista Waikoloa property sold during the first quarter of 1998. Commission
revenue increased 198% due to increased brokerage closings, including the
sale of two large office buildings in Oakland, CA.

        Operating expenses decrease 31% for the quarter ended March 31, 1998.
The decrease was mainly due to a 93% decrease in cost of residential real estate
sold due to the reduced sales discussed above.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

        The Company believes that its cash balance of approximately $3.2 million
at March 31, 1998, combined with cash generated from operations and the $6
million working capital portion of one of its lines 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 is 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, and expects to be able to continue to do so in the future.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

        Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and
Results of Operations contains certain forward-looking statements that are
subject to risk and uncertainty. Investors and potential investors in the 
Company's securities are cautioned that a number of factors could adversely
affect the Company's ability to obtain these results, including (a) the 
inability to lease currently vacant space in the Company's properties;
(b) the inability of tenants to pay contractual rent and other expenses;
(c) bankruptcies of tenants; (d) increases in certain operating costs at the
Company's properties; (e) decreases in rental rate available from tenants
leasing space in the Company's properties; (f) unavailability of financing
for acquisitions, development and redevelopment of properties by the Company;
(g) increases in interest rates; and (h) a general economic downturn resulting
in lower rents, rent delinquencies, and other downward pressure on commissions,
occupancies and rents at properties.
