_______________
Memphis, Tennessee, July 25, 1996: Mid-America Apartment Communities, Inc.
(NYSE:MAA) today announced that it had completed of the purchase of
three apartment communities totaling 816 units.
Crosswinds, located in a surburb of Jackson, Mississippi, has 360 apartment
units each averaging 1,230 sf. The property was built in 1989 and is
presently 98% occupied at an average rent of $570.
Two of the acquisitions are located in DeSoto County, Mississippi,
contiguous to Memphis. Sutton Place was built in 1990 and has 252
apartments averaging 1,062 sf with an average rent of $525. Savannah Creek
was built in 1989 and has 204 apartments averaging 1,162 sf at an average
rent of $549. These properties are also 98% occupied.
The total purchase price and closing costs will total $32.1 million, which
will be funded by $7.3 million cash from the sale in June of the Company's
Laguna Pointe property and the balance by the Company's line of credit.
The Company anticipates a 11% unleveraged first year return on its
investment before replacement reserves and management expense. Two of
the acquisitions are being used to defer the taxable gain made on the
Laguna sale. The Company anticipates making a further $1 million
investment in the properties over the next two years for upgrades and
to install water meters at Crosswinds.
Separately, the Company announced that it has increased its unsecured line
of credit from $40 million to $65 million with its banks, AmSouth Bank of
Alabama and First Tennessee Bank National Association. The line continues
to bear interest at 175 over LIBOR.
Mid-America Apartment Communities is a self-advised, self-managed REIT
which, following the above acquisitions, owns 19,226 apartment units
(including 234 development units) in 12 states, primarily in the southeast.

opinion on this Historical Summary for the Acquisition Property
based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted

perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the statement is free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the

our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
The accompanying Historical Summary for the Acquisition Property
was prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission as
described in Note 1 and is not intended to be a complete
presentation of the Acquisition Property's revenues and expenses.
In our opinion, the Historical Summary referred to above presents
fairly, in all material respects, the gross income and direct
operating expenses described in Note 1 to the Historical Summary
