      This Supplement is part of, and should be read in conjunction with, the
Prospectus dated April 26, 1996 and the Prospectus Supplement dated October
18, 1996.  This Supplement replaces the Supplements dated October 23, 1996,
November 12, 1996, November 26, 1996, December 10, 1996 and December 20, 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 January 8, 1997, 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 January 8, 1997, will be reported in a
subsequent Supplement.

                                 THE OFFERING

      As of January 8, 1997, the Company had received aggregate subscription
proceeds of $140,906,401 (14,090,640 Shares) from 7,294 stockholders,
including $591,732 (59,173 Shares) issued pursuant to the Reinvestment Plan. 
As of January 8, 1997, net proceeds to the Company from its offering of shares
after deduction of Selling Commissions, Marketing Support and Due Diligence
Expense Reimbursement Fees and Organizational and Offering Expenses totalled
$125,079,586.  As of January 8, 1997, the Company had invested or committed
for investment approximately $97,400,000 of such net proceeds in 96 Properties
(including one Property through a joint venture arrangement which consists of
land and building, seven Properties which consist of building only, 35
Properties which consist of land only and 53 Properties which consist of land
and building), in providing mortgage financing to the tenants of the 35
Properties consisting of land only and to pay Acquisition Fees and Acquisition
Expenses, leaving approximately $27,700,000 in offering proceeds available for
investment in Properties and Mortgage Loans.  As of January 8, 1997, the
Company had incurred $6,340,788 in Acquisition Fees to the Advisor.

                              SUBSEQUENT OFFERING

      On November 1, 1996, the Company filed a registration statement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the proposed sale by the
Company of up to 27,500,000 shares of common stock in a public offering (the
"Subsequent Offering") expected to commence immediately following the
termination of this offering.  Of the 27,500,000 shares of common stock to be
offered, 2,500,000 will be available only to stockholders purchasing through
the Reinvestment Plan.  Until such time, if any, as the stockholders approve
an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock of the Company,
the subsequent offering will be limited to 4,800,000 shares.  The Board of
Directors expects to submit, for a vote of the stockholders at a meeting
expected to be held in April of 1997, a resolution to increase the number of
authorized shares of Common Stock of the Company from 20,000,000 to
75,000,000.  The price per share and the other terms of the Subsequent
Offering, including the percentage of gross proceeds payable to the Managing
Dealer for selling commissions and expenses in connection with the offering,
payable to the Advisor for Acquisition Fees and Acquisition Expenses and
reimbursable to the Advisor for Organizational and Offering Expenses, will be
the same as those for this offering.  Net proceeds from the Subsequent
Offering will be invested in additional Properties and Mortgage Loans. 
Management believes that the increase in the amount of assets of the Company
that will result from the Subsequent Offering will also increase the
diversification of the Company's assets and the likelihood of Listing,
although there is no assurance that Listing will occur.

                             REDEMPTION OF SHARES

      The Company will not redeem any Shares during any period in which the
Company is making a public offering.

January 14, 1997                               Prospectus Dated April 26, 1996



                                   BUSINESS

PROPERTY ACQUISITIONS

      Between October 4, 1996 and January 8, 1997, the Company acquired 13
Properties, including one Property consisting of building only, two Properties
consisting of land only and ten Properties consisting of land and building. 
The Properties are a Wendy's Property (in San Diego, California), four Golden
Corral Properties (one in each of Lufkin, Texas, Columbia, Tennessee, Moberly,
Missouri, and Eastlake, Ohio), a Burger King Property (in Chattanooga,
Tennessee), two Pizza Hut Properties (one in each of Toledo and Bowling Green,
Ohio), two Boston Market Properties (one in each of St. Joseph, Missouri, and
Atlanta, Georgia) and three Jack in the Box Properties (one in each of Dallas,
Texas, Los Angeles, California, and Las Vegas, Nevada).  For information
regarding the 83 Properties acquired by the Company prior to October 4, 1996,
see the Prospectus dated April 26, 1996, and the Prospectus Supplement dated
October 18, 1996.

      The Boston Market Property in St. Joseph, Missouri, was acquired from an
Affiliate of the Company.  The Affiliate had purchased and temporarily held
title to the Property in order to facilitate the acquisition of the Property
by the Company.  The Property was acquired by the Company for a purchase price
of $249,688, representing the cost of the Property to the Affiliate (including
carrying costs) due to the fact that this amount was less than the Property's
appraised value.

      In connection with the purchase of the Wendy's Property in San Diego,
California, which is building only, the Company, as lessor, entered into a
long-term lease agreement with an unaffiliated lessee.  The general terms of
the lease agreement are described in the section of the Prospectus entitled
"Business - Description of Property Leases." In connection with the purchase
of this Property, which is to be constructed, the Company has entered into
development and indemnification and put agreements with the lessee.  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."  In connection with this acquisition, the
Company has also entered into a tri-party agreement with the lessee and the
landlord of the land.  The tri-party agreement provides that the ground lessee
is responsible for all obligations under the ground lease and provides certain
rights to the Company relating to the maintenance of its interest in the
building in the event of a default by the lessee under the terms of the ground
lease.

      In connection with the purchase of the four Golden Corral Properties,
the Burger King Property, the two Boston Market Properties and the three Jack
in the Box Properties, the Company, as lessor entered into long-term lease
agreements with unaffiliated lessees.  The general terms of the lease
agreements are described in the section of the Prospectus entitled "Business -
Description of Property Leases."  For the Properties that are to be
constructed, 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."

      The purchase prices for the Burger King Property in Chattanooga,
Tennessee, and the Golden Corral Property in Columbia, Tennessee, include
Development/Construction Management Fees of $100,000 and $37,850,
respectively, to an Affiliate of the Advisor for services provided in
connection with the development of the Properties.  The Company considers
these Development/Construction Management Fees to be Acquisition Fees. 
Development/Construction Management Fees must be approved by a majority of the
Directors (including a majority of the Independent Directors) not otherwise
interested in such transactions, subject to a determination that such
transactions are fair and reasonable to the Company and on terms and
conditions not less favorable to the Company than those available from
unaffiliated third parties and not less favorable than those available from
the Advisor or its Affiliates in transactions with unaffiliated third parties. 
See the sections of the Prospectus entitled "Management Compensation" and
"Business - Site Selection and Acquisition of Properties."

      In connection with the Two Pizza Hut Properties, which are land only,
the Company acquired the land and is leasing these two parcels to the lessee,
Castle Hill Holdings VII, L.L.C. ("Castle Hill"), pursuant to a master lease
agreement (the "Master Lease Agreement").  Castle Hill has subleased the Two
Pizza Hut Properties to one of its affiliates, Midland Food Services II,
L.L.C., which is the operator of the restaurants.  The general terms of the
Master Lease Agreement are similar to those described in the section of the
Prospectus entitled "Business - Description of Property Leases."  If the
lessee does not exercise its option to purchase the Properties upon
termination of the Master Lease Agreement, the sublessee and lessee will
surrender possession of the Properties to the Company, together with any
improvements on such Properties.  The lessee owns the buildings located on the
Two Pizza Hut Properties.  In connection with the acquisition of the Two Pizza
Hut Properties, the Company provided mortgage financing of $484,000 to the
lessee pursuant to a Mortgage Loan evidenced by a master mortgage note (the
"Master Mortgage Note") which is collateralized by the building improvements
on the Two Pizza Hut Properties.  The Master Mortgage Note bears interest at a
rate of 10.75% per annum and principal and interest are due in equal monthly
installments over 20 years starting February 1, 1997.  The Master Mortgage
Note equals approximately 76 percent of the appraised value of the related
buildings.  Management believes that, due to the fact that the Company owns
the underlying land relating to the Two Pizza Hut Properties and due to other
underwriting criteria, the Company has sufficient collateral for the Master
Mortgage Note.

      As of January 8, 1997, the Company had initial commitments to acquire 14
properties, consisting 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 14 of these properties are expected
to be entered into on substantially the same terms described in the section of
the Prospectus entitled "Business - Description of Property Leases," except as
described below.

      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.

      Between October 4, 1996 and January 8, 1997, the Company obtained four
advances totalling $1,249,324 under its $15,000,000 Loan.  The proceeds of the

Tennessee (the "Columbia Secured Equipment Lease"), Spring Hill, Florida (the
"Spring Hill Secured Equipment Lease") and Montclair, California (the
"Montclair Secured Equipment Lease"), at a cost of $1,249,324, including
Secured Equipment Lease Servicing Fees of $23,778 to the Advisor.  The
Hopkinsville Secured Equipment Lease and the Spring Hill Secured Equipment
Lease are considered to be interest only loans for the first two months and

amortizing term loans repayable over six years.  The Columbia Secured
Equipment Lease and the Montclair Secured Equipment Lease are fully amortizing
term loans repayable over six years.  The advances bear interest at a rate per

FOOTNOTES:

(1)   Base rent does not include percentage rents which become due if
      specified levels of gross receipts are achieved.

(2)   The Company entered into a Master Mortgage Note agreement for $484,000,
      collateralized by building improvements located on the Two Pizza Hut
      Properties.  The Master Mortgage Note bears interest at a rate of 10.75%
      per annum and principal and interest will be collected in equal monthly
      installments over 20 years beginning in February 1997.  Amount does not
      include $2,420 of loan commitment fees and $2,420 in loan origination
      fees collected by the Company at closing from the borrower.

(3)   The Properties will be managed pursuant to an advisory agreement between
      the Company and CNL Fund Advisors, Inc. (the "Advisor"), pursuant to
      which the Advisor will receive monthly asset management fees in an
      amount equal to one-twelfth of .60% of the Company's Real Estate Asset
      Value as of the end of the preceding month as defined in such agreement. 
      See "Management Compensation."

(4)   For managing the Mortgage Loans, the Advisor will be entitled to receive
      a monthly mortgage management fee of one-twelfth of .60% of the total
      principal amount of the Mortgage Loans as of the end of the preceding
      month.  See "Management Compensation."

(5)   Estimated at 6.2% of gross rental income and interest income based on
      the previous experience of Affiliates of the Advisor with 17 public
      limited partnerships which own properties similar to those owned by the
      Company.  Amount does not include soliciting dealer servicing fee due to
      the fact that such fee will not be incurred until December 31 of the
      year following the year in which the offering terminates.

(6)   The estimated federal tax basis of the depreciable portion (the building
      portion) of the Properties has been depreciated on the straight-line
      method over 39 years.  In connection with the Two Pizza Hut Properties,
      acquisition fees allocated to the Master Mortgage Note have been
      amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the agreement (20
      years).

(7)   The development agreements for the Properties which are to be
      constructed, provide that construction must be completed no later than
      the date set forth below:

      Property                      Estimated Final Completion Date
