      This Supplement is part of, and should be read in conjunction with, the
Prospectus dated April 26, 1996 and the Prospectus Supplement dated July 26,
1996.  This Supplement replaces the Supplement dated July 31, 1996. 
Capitalized terms used in this Supplement have the same meaning as in the
Prospectus unless otherwise stated herein.

      Information as to proposed properties for which the Company has received
initial commitments and as to the number and types of Properties acquired by
the Company is presented as of August 6, 1996, and all references to
commitments or Property acquisitions should be read in that context.  Proposed
properties for which the Company receives initial commitments, as well as
property acquisitions that occur after August 6, 1996, will be reported in a
subsequent Supplement.

                                 THE OFFERING

      As of August 6, 1996, the Company had received aggregate subscription
proceeds of $87,868,486 (8,786,849 Shares) from 4,916 stockholders, including
$243,167 (24,317 Shares) issued pursuant to the Reinvestment Plan.  As of
August 6, 1996, the Company had invested or committed for investment
approximately $68,000,000 of such proceeds in 74 Properties (including one
Property through a joint venture arrangement which consists of land and
building, five Properties which consist of building only, 33 Properties which
consist of land only and 35 Properties which consist of land and building), in
providing mortgage financing to the tenants of the 33 Properties consisting of
land only and to pay Acquisition Fees and Acquisition Expenses, leaving
approximately $8,700,000 in offering proceeds available for investment in
Properties and Mortgage Loans.  As of August 6, 1996, the Company had incurred
$3,954,082 in Acquisition Fees to the Advisor.

                                   BUSINESS

PROPERTY ACQUISITIONS

      Between July 17, 1996 and August 6, 1996, the Company acquired two
Properties.  The Properties are a Boston Market Property (in Upland,
California) and a Jack in the Box Property (in Houston, Texas).  For
information regarding the 72 Properties acquired by the Company prior to July
17, 1996, see the Prospectus Supplement dated July 26, 1996.

      In connection with the purchase of each of these two Properties, which
are to be constructed, the Company, as lessor, entered into a long-term lease
agreement with an unaffiliated lessee.  The general terms of the lease
agreements are described in the section of the Prospectus entitled "Business -
Description of Property Leases."  In connection therewith, the Company has
entered into development and indemnification and put agreements with the
lessees.  The general terms of these agreements are described in the section
of the Prospectus entitled "Business - Site Selection and Acquisition of
Properties - Construction and Renovation."

      As of August 6, 1996, the Company had initial commitments to acquire 11
properties, including two properties which consist of building only and nine
properties which consist of land and building.  The acquisition of each of
these properties is subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions,
including, but not limited to, a satisfactory environmental survey and
property appraisal.  There can be no assurance that any or all of the
conditions will be satisfied or, if satisfied, that one or more of these
properties will be acquired by the Company.  If acquired, the leases of all 11
of these properties are expected to be entered into on substantially the same
terms described in the Prospectus in the section entitled "Business -
Description of Property Leases," except as described below.

August 9, 1996                                 Prospectus Dated April 26, 1996

      In connection with the Golden Corral and the Wendy's properties in
Brooklyn, Ohio, and San Diego, California, respectively, the Company
anticipates owning only the buildings and not the underlying land.  However,
the Company anticipates entering into tri-party agreements with the lessees
and the landlords of the land in order to provide the Company with certain
rights with respect to the land on which the buildings are located.

      Set forth below are summarized terms expected to apply to the leases for
each of the properties.  More detailed information relating to a property and
its related lease will be provided at such time, if any, as the property is
acquired.

FOOTNOTES:

(1)   The "Total Cost" is equal to the sum of (i) the purchase price of the
      property, (ii) closing costs, and (iii) actual development costs
      incurred under the development agreement.

(2)   The Company anticipates owning the building only for this property.  The
      Company will not own the underlying land; although, the Company
      anticipates entering into a tri-party agreement with the lessee and the
      landlord of the land in order to provide the Company with certain rights
      with respect to the land on which the building is located.

(3)   Percentage rent shall be calculated on a calendar year basis (January 1
      to December 31).

(4)   In the event that the aggregate amount of percentage rent paid by the
      lessee to the Company over the term of the lease shall equal or exceed
      15% of the purchase price paid by the Company, then the option purchase
      price shall equal one dollar.  In the event that the aggregate
      percentage rent paid shall be less than 15% of the purchase price paid
      by the Company, then the option purchase price shall equal the
      difference of 15% of the purchase price, less the aggregate percentage
      rent paid to the landlord by the lessee under the lease.

(5)   The lessee also has the option to purchase the property after the
      seller/lessee operates at least five Applebee's restaurants owned by the
      Company.

(6)   The "Building Overage Multiplier" is calculated as follows:

            Building Overage Multiplier = (purchase price of the
            building)/[purchase price of the building + (annual rent due under
            the land lease/land lease cap rate)]
