To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
FAC Realty, Inc.


We have audited the accompanying Combined Statement of Revenue and Certain
Expenses of North Hills as described in Note 1 for the year ended December 31,
1996. This combined financial statement is the responsibility of North Hills'
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this combined
financial statement based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the combined financial statement is free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the combined financial statement. An audit also
includes assessing the basis of accounting used and the significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall combined financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

The accompanying Combined Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses was prepared
using the basis of accounting described in Note 1 for the purpose of complying
with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for
inclusion in the Form 8-K of FAC Realty, Inc. and is not intended to be a
complete presentation of North Hills' revenue and expenses.

In our opinion, the combined financial statement referred to above presents
fairly, in all material respects, the revenue and certain expenses described in
Note 1 of North Hills for the year ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

           Notes to Combined Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses

                                December 31, 1996



1.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Presented herein is the Combined Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses
related to the operations of five commercial real estate properties located in
and around Raleigh, North Carolina identified as North Hills.

North Hills is not a legal entity but rather a combination of the operations of
certain real estate properties expected to be acquired by FAC Realty, Inc. The
accompanying Combined Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses includes the
accounts of the following commercial real estate properties, each of which is
wholly owned by various parties not affiliated with FAC Realty, Inc.


                  PROPERTY                    OWNER


In-service properties:
     Eastgate                        North Hills Properties, Inc.
     Gateway Plaza                   North Hills Properties, Inc.
     MacGregor Village               North Hills Properties, Inc.
     North Ridge                     North Hills Properties, Inc.
     Tower                           Tower Properties Limited Partnership


In accordance with Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X, the accompanying combined
financial statement is not representative of the actual operations for the year
presented as certain expenses that may not be comparable to the expenses
expected to be incurred by FAC Realty, Inc. in the proposed future operations of
the aforementioned properties have been excluded. Expenses excluded consist of
interest, depreciation and amortization, management fees, and general and
administrative expenses not directly related to future operations.

Notes to Combined Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses (continued)


2.   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Minimum rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of
the lease. Certain lease agreements contain provisions which provide for rents
based on a percentage of sales and certain leases provide for additional rents
based on a percentage of sales volume above a specified breakpoint and
reimbursement of real estate taxes, insurance, advertising, utilities and
certain common area maintenance (CAM) costs. These additional rents are
reflected on the accrual basis.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the amounts reported in the combined financial statement and accompanying
notes. Actual results could differ from those amounts.

3.   LEASES

North Hills is being leased to tenants under operating leases that will expire
over the next 20 years.

Expected future minimum rents to be received over the next five years and
thereafter from tenants for leases in effect at December 31, 1996 are as
follows:

                                                                 TOTAL

                               FIRST AMENDMENT TO
                         AGREEMENT OF PURCHASE AND SALE


         THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT OF PURCHASE AND SALE (the "First
Amendment") entered into on March 27, 1997 among NORTH HILLS PROPERTIES, INC., a
North Carolina corporation, ("NHP"), TOWER PROPERTIES LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, a
North Carolina limited partnership, ("TPL") (NHP and TPL being hereinafter
referred to as a "Seller" and collectively as "Sellers") and FAC REALTY, INC., a
Delaware corporation, or its assignee ("Purchaser");

                              W I T N E S S E T H:

         WHEREAS, Sellers and Purchaser did, of even date, enter into a certain
Agreement of Purchase and Sale (the "Agreement", same being incorporated by this
reference herein) pursuant to which Sellers agreed to sell to Purchaser, and
Purchaser agreed to purchase from Sellers, Eastgate Shopping Center, North Ridge
Shopping Center, MacGregor Village Shopping Center, Gateway Shopping Center and
Tower Shopping Center, being retail strip shopping centers located in Raleigh,
Cary and Wilson, North Carolina; and

         WHEREAS, Sellers and Purchaser desire to amend the Agreement upon the
limited terms set forth below;

         NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged and confessed, Sellers and
Purchaser do hereby agree as follows:

         1. Preferential Right to Purchase at Eastgate Shopping Center. By
virtue of Paragraphs 10 and 11 of that certain Lease dated June 22, 1966 between
North Hills, Inc. (the name of which was subsequently changed to North Hills
Properties, Inc., a Seller herein), as lessor, and Shell Oil Company, as lessee,
same having been assigned by one or more assignments to Quality Oil Company,
L.L.C., ("Quality Oil"), Quality Oil has a preferential right to purchase
Eastgate Shopping Center. By letter dated February 26, 1997, a copy of which has
been delivered to Purchaser, Sellers notified Quality Oil of the pendency of the
sale of the Eastgate Shopping Center to Purchaser and the terms thereof. Quality
Oil has 30 days after its receipt of the said notice within which to exercise
its preferential purchase right. As of the date hereof, Quality Oil has not
notified Sellers either that it has elected to exercise, or that it has elected
not to exercise, its preferential purchase right. Accordingly, the preferential
purchase right is still exercisable by Quality Oil, and may be exercisable
beyond the Scheduled Closing Date set forth in the Agreement. Notwithstanding,
Purchaser hereby agrees with Sellers as follows with respect to the Quality Oil
preferential purchase right:

                  (a) The preferential purchase right shall be deemed a
         Permitted Title Exception for all purposes of the Agreement, and its
         existence shall not constitute a breach or default by Sellers under any
         provision of the Agreement.

                  (b) Purchaser may elect to acquire Eastgate Shopping Center in
         accordance with the terms of the Agreement by assuming the obligations
         of NHP with respect to the Quality Oil preferential purchase right. If
         (i) Purchaser does so elect, (ii) Sellers waive their rights under
         Section 11.02(d) of the Agreement, (iii) Purchaser or its subsidiary
         proceeds to acquire Eastgate Shopping Center in assumption of NHP's
         obligations with respect to the preferential purchase right and (iv)
         subsequent to Purchaser's acquisition of Eastgate Shopping Center,
         Quality Oil exercises its preferential purchase right, Purchaser shall
         honor the exercise by Quality Oil of, and to, the preferential purchase
         right, and Purchaser's failure to so perform shall be deemed to be a
         claim for which Purchaser shall be liable to Sellers in accordance with
         Section 13 of the Agreement. The provisions of this Section 1(b) shall
         be deemed an additional warranty, representation and covenant of
         Purchaser for purposes of Section 8 of the Agreement.

                  (c) Nothing contained in this First Amendment shall constitute
         a waiver of Sellers' rights under Section 11.02(d) of the Agreement.

         2. Ratification. Save and except as expressly modified and amended as
hereinabove set forth, each term, provision and condition of the Agreement is
hereby ratified and confirmed as originally written.

         EXECUTED on the date and year above first written.
