                          EXPLANATORY NOTE

   Walden Residential Properties, Inc. (the "Company"), a Maryland
corporation, hereby amends its Form 8-K filed August 7, 1997, by
reclassifying the convertible equity securities formerly reported 
as a component of stockholders' equity in its pro forma condensed
consolidated balance sheets to minority interests and by restating
its pro forma condensed consolidated statements of income to
reflect distributions or income on such convertible equity
securities as income allocated to minority interests which is
deducted in arriving at net income.  The Company believes these
changes are necessary to conform the Company's financial statements
to generally accepted accounting principles.  These changes will
have no impact on the financial condition, business or assets of 
the Company and do not change the Company's net income available to
common stockholders per share or funds from operations.

     The combined purchase price was approximately $39.8 million. 
The purchase was financed approximately as follows:

     Credit Facility                                    $18,500,000
     Cash                                                20,248,000

     The Sellers are not affiliated with the Company, any director
or officer of the Company or any associate of any such director or
officer.  The Arbors Apartments were previously operated by the
Sellers as multifamily apartment properties, and it is the intent
of the Company to continue to operate the Arbors Apartments as
multifamily apartment properties.

     The purchase price that was negotiated with the Sellers was
determined through internal analysis by the Company of historical
cash flows and fair market values of the Arbors Apartments with
adjustments for the Company's estimates of the cost of operation.



Item 7.   Financial Statements and Exhibits

     The undersigned Registrant hereby submits the Financial
Statements for the Arbors Apartments referred to in Item 2.

     a.   Financial Statements

          Statements of Revenues and Certain Expenses of the Arbors
          Apartments for the three months ended March 31, 1997
          (unaudited) and for the year ended December 31, 1996,
          notes to the financial statements and the report of
          Deloitte & Touche LLP with respect to the Statement of
          Revenues and Certain Expenses for the year ended December
          31, 1996, are presented on pages 4 through 6.



                   INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Board of Directors
of Walden Residential Properties, Inc.

     We have audited the accompanying combined statement of
revenues and certain expenses (defined as being operating revenues
less direct operating expenses) of Arbor Park, Arbors of Bedford,
Arbors of Carrollton, Arbors of Euless, Arbors of Forest Lane and
Arbors of Austin ("Arbors Apartments") for the year ended December
31, 1996.  This financial statement is the responsibility of the
management of Walden Residential Properties, Inc.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on this 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 statement of revenues and certain expenses is free of
material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statement.  An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation.  We believe that our audit provides a reasonable
basis for our opinion.

     The accompanying combined statement of revenues and certain
expenses was prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules
and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for
inclusion in the Form 8-K of Walden Residential Properties, Inc. 
Material amounts, described in  Note 1 to the combined statement of
revenues and certain expenses, that would not be comparable to
those resulting from the proposed future operations of the Arbors
Apartments are excluded and the statement is not intended to be a
complete presentation of the revenues and expenses of these
apartments.

     In our opinion, such combined statement of revenues and
certain expenses presents fairly, in all material respects, the
revenues and certain expenses, as defined above, of the Arbors
Apartments for the year ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

                      ARBORS APARTMENTS
NOTES TO COMBINED STATEMENTS OF REVENUES AND CERTAIN EXPENSES

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant
         Accounting Policies

     Basis of Presentation.  The combined operating revenues and
direct operating expenses of Arbor Park, Arbors of Bedford, Arbors
of Carrollton, Arbors of Euless, Arbors of Forest Lane and Arbors
of Austin ("Arbors Apartments") described in Note 2 are presented
on the accrual basis of accounting.  The accompanying financial
statements are not representative of the actual operations for the
periods presented as certain expenses, which may not be comparable
to the expenses expected to be incurred by Walden Residential
Properties, Inc., in the proposed future operations of the Arbors
Apartments, have been excluded.  Expenses excluded consist of
interest, depreciation and amortization, professional fees, and
other costs not directly related to the future operations of the
Arbors Apartments.

     Income Recognition.  Rental income is recorded when it is
earned and due from tenants.  Apartment units are rented under
lease agreements with terms of one year or less.

     Management Fees.  The Arbors Apartments have management
agreements with affiliated management companies to maintain and
manage the operations of the apartment complexes.  Management fees
are based on 4% of total revenue collected.

     Interim Financial Data.  In the opinion of management, all
adjustments and eliminations, consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments, necessary to present fairly the combined statement of
revenues and certain expenses of Arbors Apartments for the three
months ended March 31, 1997 have been included.  The combined
results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1997 are
not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.

     Use of Estimates.  The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported
amounts of certain revenues and expenses as of and for the
reporting periods.  Actual results may differ from such estimates.

Item 7.   Financial Statements and Exhibits

     b.   Pro Forma Financial Information

          The following March 31, 1997, unaudited Pro Forma
          Condensed Balance Sheet of Walden Residential Properties,
          Inc. (the "Company") reflects the March 31, 1997
          Consolidated Balance Sheet adjusted for (1) the
          acquisition of the properties acquired on April 21, 1997,
          and (2) the estimated Credit Facility borrowings, cash
          disbursements and stock issuances necessary to finance
          the acquisition.

          The following unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated
          Statement of Income for the three months ended March 31,
          1997, and the twelve months ended December 31, 1996, were
          prepared from the consolidated financial statements of
          the Company by adjusting for properties acquired or
          disposed of during the periods presented and properties
          acquired on April 21, 1997, including the related debt or
          stock offerings used to finance the acquisitions, debt
          that was repaid from the proceeds of dispositions, or
          estimated Credit Facility borrowings as if all of these
          transactions had occurred on January 1, 1997 and 1996,
          respectively.  This is not necessarily indicative of what
          the performance would have been had the Company owned
          these properties for the entire period, nor does it
          purport to represent future results of operations of the
          Company.
