DEFINITION OF SPECIAL TERMS:

Capitalized terms used herein and not defined are as defined in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995.

1.   BUSINESS

     Equity Residential Properties Trust, formed in March 1993, and its
subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company"), is a self-administered and self-
managed equity real estate investment trust ("REIT"). As of June 30, 1996, the
Company controlled a portfolio of 191 multifamily residential properties
(individually a "Property" and collectively the "Properties"). The Company's
interest in six of these Properties consists solely of ownership of debt
collateralized by such Properties. The Company also has an investment in
partnership interests and subordinated mortgages collateralized by 21 properties
(the "Additional Properties").

2.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The balance sheet and statements of operations and cash flows as of and for
the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1996 represent the consolidated
financial information of the Company and its subsidiaries.

     Due to the Company's ability as general partner to control either through
ownership or by contract the Operating Partnership, the Management Partnerships
and the Financing Partnerships, each such entity has been consolidated with the
Company for financial reporting purposes.  In regard to Management Corp. and
Management Corp. II, the Company does not have legal control; however, these
entities are consolidated for financial reporting purposes, the effects of which
are immaterial.

     These unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company have been
prepared pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") rules and
regulations and should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and
Notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 1995 ("Form 10-K"). The following Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements highlight significant changes to the notes included in the
Form 10-K and present interim disclosures as required by the SEC. The
accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements reflect, in the opinion of
management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the interim
financial statements. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature.
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period's financial
statements in order to conform with the current period presentation.

</TABLE>
Assuming conversion of all OP Units into Common Shares, total Common Shares
outstanding at June 30, 1996 would have been 52,200,105.

     On March 1, 1996, the Operating Partnership exercised its option to convert

Statement to register 608,665 Common Shares which may be issued by the Company

interest are collectively referred to as the "Minority Interests". As of June

percentage and are treated as capital transactions in the Company's Consolidated
Financial Statements. As a result, the net offering proceeds are allocated
between shareholders' equity and Minority Interests to account for the change in
their respective percentage ownership of the underlying equity of the Operating
Partnership.

defined, are as defined in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 1995.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Since the Company's IPO, the Company has acquired direct or indirect
interests in 130 properties (the "Acquired Properties"), containing 40,755 units
in the aggregate for a total purchase price of approximately $1.9 billion,
including the assumption of approximately $442.8 million of mortgage
indebtedness. The Company's interest in six of the Acquired Properties consists
solely of ownership of the debt collateralized by such Acquired Properties. The
Company purchased ten of such Acquired Properties consisting of 2,694 units
between the IPO and December 31, 1993 (the "1993 Acquired Properties"); 84 of
such Acquired Properties consisting of 26,285 units in 1994 (the "1994 Acquired
Properties"); 17 of such Acquired Properties consisting of 5,035 units in 1995
(the "1995 Acquired Properties"); and 19 of such Acquired Properties consisting
of 6,741 units between January 1, 1996 and June 30, 1996 (the "1996 Acquired
Properties"). In addition, in August 1995, the Company made an investment in
partnership interests and subordinated mortgages collateralized by the 21
Additional Properties. The Acquired Properties were presented in the
Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company from the date of each
acquisition.

     During 1995, the Company also disposed of six properties containing 2,445
units (the "1995 Disposed Properties") for a total sales price of approximately
$52 million and the release of mortgage indebtedness of $20.5 million. During
the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Company disposed of two properties (the
"1996 Disposed Properties") for a total sales price of $10.15 million.
 
     The Company's overall results of operations for the quarter and six months
ended June 30, 1996 have been impacted by the Company's acquisition and
disposition activity. The significant increases in rental revenues, property and
maintenance expenses, real estate taxes and insurance, depreciation expense and
property management can all primarily be attributed to the acquisition of the
1995 Acquired Properties and 1996 Acquired Properties. The impact of the 1995
Acquired Properties is discussed in greater detail in the following paragraphs.
The Company's disposition activity partially offset the increases to these same
accounts.

     Properties that the Company owned for all of both the six months ended June
30, 1996 and June 30, 1995 (the "Six-Month 1996 Same Store Properties") and
Properties that the Company owned for all of both the quarters ended June 30,
1996 and June 30, 1995 (the "Second-Quarter 1996 Same Store Properties") also
impacted the Company's results of operations and are discussed as well in the

following paragraphs.


                 COMPARISON OF SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 
                       TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1995

     For the six months ended June 30, 1996, income before gain on disposition
of properties, extraordinary item and allocation to Minority Interests increased
by $15.5 million when compared to the six months ended June 30, 1995. This
increase was primarily due to increases in rental revenues net of increases in
property and maintenance expenses, real estate taxes and insurance, property
management expenses, fee and asset management and depreciation expense. All of
the increases in the various line item accounts mentioned above can be primarily
attributed to the 1996 Acquired Properties and 1995 Acquired Properties. These
increases were partially offset by the 1995 Disposed Properties and the 1996
Disposed Properties. Interest income of $5.9 million earned on the Company's
mortgage note investment was an additional factor that impacted the six month to
six month changes.

     In regard to the Six-Month 1996 Same Store Properties, rental revenues
increased by approximately $9.9 million or 5.8% primarily as a result of higher
rental rates charged to new tenants and tenant renewals. Overall property
operating expenses which include property and maintenance, real estate taxes and
insurance and an allocation of property management expenses increased
approximately $2.9 million or 4%. This increase was primarily the result of
higher payroll expenses, leasing and advertising costs and utilities costs. For
1996 the Company also increased its per unit charge for property level insurance
which increased insurance expense by approximately $0.6 million.

     Property management represents expenses associated with the management of
the Company's Properties. These expenses increased by approximately $1.1 million
primarily as a result of the expansion of the Company's property management with
the addition of a regional operations center in Seattle, Washington.

     Fee and asset management revenues and fee and asset management expenses are
associated with the management of properties not owned by the Company that are
managed for affiliates. These revenues decreased by $0.5 million due to the
disposition of certain of these properties.

     Interest expense, including amortization of deferred financing costs,
decreased by approximately $1.9 million. Of this decrease, $3.9 million was due
to having a lower average balance outstanding on the Company's line of credit
and $2.6 million was due to the repayment of mortgage indebtedness on certain of
the 1994 Acquired Properties and Zell Properties. This decrease was offset by an
increase of approximately $1.5 million due to the interest associated with the
debt assumed on the 1995 Acquired Properties and 1996 Acquired Properties, $0.1
million was due to interest related to the 1999 Notes and the Floating Rate
Notes and $3 million was due to interest related to the 2002 Notes.

     General and administrative expenses, which include corporate operating
expenses, increased slightly between the periods under comparison. General and
administrative expenses as a percentage

of total revenues decreased from 2.2% for the six months ended June 30, 1995 to
1.9% for the six months ended June 30, 1996.

     COMPARISON OF QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 TO QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 1995

     For the quarter ended June 30, 1996, income before gain on disposition of
property, extraordinary item and allocation to Minority Interests increased by
$8.8 million when compared to the quarter ended June 30, 1995. This increase was
primarily due to increases in rental revenues net of increases in property and
maintenance expenses, real estate taxes and insurance, property management
expenses, fee and asset management and depreciation expense. All of the
increases in the various line item accounts mentioned above can be primarily
attributed to the 1996 Acquired Properties and 1995 Acquired Properties. These
increases were partially offset by the 1995 Disposed Properties and the 1996
Disposed Properties. Interest income of $3.2 million earned on the Company's
mortgage note investment was an additional factor that impacted the quarter to
quarter changes.

     In regard to the Second Quarter 1996 Same Store Properties, rental revenues
increased by approximately $5.3 million or 6.1% as a result of higher rental
rates charged to new tenants and tenant renewals. Overall property operating
expenses which include property and maintenance, real estate taxes and insurance
and an allocation of property management expenses increased approximately $1.2
million or 3.2%. This increase was primarily the result of higher payroll
expenses, leasing and advertising costs and utilities costs. For 1996 the
Company also increased its per unit charge for property level insurance which
increased insurance expense by $0.3 million.

     Property management represents expenses associated with the management of
the Company's Properties. These expenses increased by approximately $0.7 million
primarily as a result of the expansion of the Company's property management with
the addition of a regional operations center in Seattle, Washington.

     Fee and asset management revenues and fee and asset management expenses are
associated with the management of properties not owned by the Company that are
managed for affiliates. These revenues decreased by $0.1 million due to the
disposition of certain of these properties.

   Interest expense, including amortization of deferred financing costs,
decreased by approximately $0.8 million. Of this decrease, $1 million was due to
having a lower average balance outstanding on the Company's line of credit and
$1 million was due to the repayment of mortgage indebtedness on certain of the
1994 Acquired Properties and Zell Properties. This decrease was offset by an
increase of approximately $0.8 million due to the interest associated with the
debt assumed on the 1995 Acquired Properties and 1996 Acquired Properties and
$0.4 million was due to interest related to the 2002 Notes.

expenses, increased slightly between the quarters under comparison. General and

of total revenues decreased from 2.1% for the quarter ended June 30, 1995 to
1.8% for the quarter ended June 30, 1996.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

   As of January 1, 1996, the Company had approximately $13.4 million of cash
and cash equivalents and $158 million available on its line of credit.  After
taking into effect the various transactions discussed in the following
paragraphs, the Company's cash and cash equivalents balance at June 30, 1996 was
approximately $11.9 million and the amount available on the Company's line of
credit was $230 million.  The following discussion also explains the changes in
net cash provided by operating activities, net cash (used for) investing
activities and net cash provided by financing activities, which amounts for each
period under comparison are presented in the Company's Statements of Cash Flows.

   Part of the Company's strategy in funding the purchase of multifamily
residential properties is to utilize its line of credit and to subsequently
repay the line of credit with proceeds from the issuance of additional equity or
debt securities.  Continuing to employ this strategy, the Company completed the
January 1996 Common Share Offering and received net proceeds of approximately
$50.7 million, substantially all of which were applied to repay a portion of the
outstanding balance on the Company's line of credit.  In addition, the Company
completed the February 1996 Common Share Offering and received net proceeds of
approximately $67.8 million.  Of these proceeds, $60 million were applied to
repay the remaining outstanding balance on the Company's line of credit.  The
remaining proceeds were subsequently used to purchase additional properties.  In
connection with the May 1996 Common Share Offerings, the Company received net
proceeds of approximately $111.3 million.  Of these proceeds, $57 million were
applied to repay the remaining outstanding balance on the Company's line of
credit and the remaining proceeds were subsequently used to purchase additional
Properties.

   In June 1996, the Company restructured certain of its tax-exempt bond
investments and received approximately $77.1 million of  proceeds in connection
therewith.  Of these proceeds $70 million were used to repay the remaining
outstanding balance on the Company's line of credit.  Also in connection with
this transaction, the Company made a loan in the amount of $4.9 million to the 
entities that hold title to the Properties that collateralize the tax-exempt 
bond indebtedness. The proceeds of this loan were used to pay the costs related
to this transaction.

   In August 1996, the Operating Partnership issued $150 million of unsecured
fixed rate notes in connection with the Debt Shelf Registration in a public debt
offering.  The Operating Partnership received net proceeds of approximately
$148.7 million in connection with this offering and subsequently repaid amounts
outstanding on the line of credit.

   With respect to Property acquisitions during the six month period, the
Company purchased 19 Properties containing 6,741 units for a total of
approximately $291 million, which included the

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

assumption of $45.3 million of mortgage indebtedness. These acquisitions were
primarily funded from amounts drawn on the Company's line of credit, proceeds
funded from third party escrow accounts related to the tax-deferred exchange of
certain properties and a portion of the proceeds received in connection with the
Common Share offerings as mentioned in the previous paragraph. Subsequent to
June 30, 1996, the Company acquired seven additional properties for a purchase
price of $101 million. These acquisitions were primarily funded from the
Company's line of credit. The Company is actively seeking to acquire additional
multifamily residential properties with physical and market characteristics
similar to the Properties and is currently under contract with various sellers
to purchase up to 4,506 units. The combined purchase price of these probable
acquisitions is approximately $224 million. The closings of these transactions
are subject to certain contingencies and conditions, therefore, there can be no
assurance that these transactions will be consummated or that the final terms
will not differ in material respects.

   During the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Company disposed of two
properties which generated net proceeds of $10 million.  These proceeds were
ultimately applied to purchase additional properties.

   As of  June 30, 1996, the Company had total indebtedness of approximately $1
billion, which included conventional mortgages of $428.8 million, unsecured debt
of $350 million (net of a $1.3 million discount), tax exempt bond indebtedness
of $239 million and $20 million outstanding on the Company's line of credit.

   During the six months ended June 30, 1996, total capital expenditures for the
Company approximated $20 million.  Of this amount, $5.6 million related to
capital improvements and major repairs for the Acquired Properties.  Such
capital expenditures were primarily funded from working capital reserves and
from net cash provided by operating activities. Total capital expenditures for
the remaining portion of 1996 including amounts for the 1996 Acquired Properties
are budgeted to be approximately $25 million.
 
   Minority Interests as of June 30, 1996 decreased by $13.9 million when
compared to December 31, 1995. The primary factors that impacted this account
during the six month period were distributions declared to Minority Interests,
which amounted to $10.5 million for the six month period, the allocation of
income from operations in the amount of $5.9 million and the conversion of OP
Units into Common Shares.

   Total distributions paid during the six months ended June 30, 1996 amounted
to $65.8 million. On May 29, 1996, the Company declared a $0.59 distribution per
Common Share, $0.5859 distribution per Series A Preferred Share and $5.703
distribution per $250 Preferred Share (or a $0.5703 distribution per $25
Depositary Share) payable to shareholders of record on June 28, 1996. Total
distributions paid in July 1996 for the quarter ended June 30, 1996 amounted to
approximately $37 million.

The Company expects to meet its short-term liquidity requirements generally
through its working capital and net cash provided by operating activities.  The
Company considers its cash provided by operating activities to be adequate to
meet operating requirements and payments of distributions.  The Company also
expects to meet its long-term liquidity requirements, such as scheduled mortgage
debt maturities, reduction of outstanding amounts under its line of credit,
property acquisitions and significant capital improvements by long-term
collateralized and un-collateralized borrowings and the issuance of equity
securities including additional OP Units as well as from proceeds received from
the disposition of certain Properties.  In addition, the Company has certain
uncollateralized Properties available for additional mortgage borrowings in the
event that the public capital markets are unavailable to the Company or the cost
of capital to the Company  in such markets is too high.

   The Company currently has a $250 million line of credit which will continue
to be used for property acquisitions and for any working capital needs.  As of
August 13, 1996, no amounts were outstanding under this facility.  This facility
is scheduled to mature in November 1996; however, it is the Company's current
intent to renegotiate the extension of this facility or replace it with a
similar facility.

FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS

   The Company generally considers FFO to be one measure of the performance of
real estate companies including an equity REIT.  In accordance with the new
definition of FFO adopted by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, FFO represents
net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or
losses) from debt restructuring and sales of property, plus depreciation on real
estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint
ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are
calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis.  The Company believes that FFO is
helpful to investors as a measure of the performance of an equity REIT because,
along with cash flows from operating activities, financing activities and
investing activities, it provides investors an understanding of the ability of
the Company to incur and service debt and to make capital expenditures.  FFO
does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with
GAAP and therefore should not be considered an alternative to net income as an
indication of the Company's performance or to net cash flows from operating
activities as determined by GAAP as a measure of liquidity and is not
necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs.

   For the six months ended June 30, 1996, FFO, based on the new definition
(except for the effect of amortization of deferred financing costs related to
Predecessor Business of approximately $316,000), increased by $12.2 million when
compared to the six months ended June 30, 1995 to approximately $71.6 million.
For the quarter ended June 30, 1996, FFO, based on the new definition (except
for the effect of amortization of deferred financing costs related to
Predecessor Business of approximately $157,000), increased by $8.2 million when
compared to the quarter ended June 30, 1995 to approximately $37.8 million.
