                         Report of Independent Auditors


To the Shareholders and Board of Directors
Pacific Gulf Properties Inc.

We have audited the accompanying combined statement of revenues and certain
expenses of Chino Distribution Center, Downey Distribution Center, Fontana
Industrial/Distribution Center, Rancho Bernardo Business Center and Warm Springs
Industrial Park, five industrial properties to be acquired by Pacific Gulf
Properties Inc. from Lincoln Pacific Industrial Fund (collectively referred to
as the "AEW/Lincoln Properties") for the year ended December 31, 1996. The
statement is the responsibility of AEW/Lincoln Properties' management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on the 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 statement is free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the statement. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall presentation of the statement. We believe that our audit
provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The accompanying statement was prepared for the purpose of complying with the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (for inclusion
in a Form 8-K filing) as described in Note 2 to the statement and is not
intended to be a complete presentation of the revenues and expenses of the
AEW/Lincoln Properties.

In our opinion, the statement referred to above presents fairly, in all material
respects, the combined revenues and certain expenses, as defined above, of the
AEW/Lincoln Properties for the year ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
