Property consisting of building only. These Properties are 12 Ground Round

Parma, Ohio; Dubuque and Waterloo, Iowa; Janesville and Wauwatosa, Wisconsin;
Gloucester and Ewing, New Jersey; Crystal, Minnesota; and Kalamazoo, Michigan),
two Jack in the Box Properties (one in each of Florissant, Missouri; and Folsom,

November 21, 1997                              Prospectus Dated April 18, 1997


<PAGE>



         The Jack in the Box Properties in Florissant, Missouri, and Folsom,
California, were acquired from Affiliates of the Company. The Affiliates had
purchased and temporarily held title to these Properties in order to facilitate
their acquisition by the Company. The Properties were acquired by the Company
for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $2,340,000, representing the
cost of the Properties to the Affiliates (including carrying costs) due to the
fact that the amounts were less than each Property's appraised value.

         In connection with the purchase of the 12 Ground Round Properties, the
two Jack in the Box Properties and the one Wendy's Property, which are land and
building, 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."

         In connection with the On The Border Property in San Antonio, Texas,
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 owner 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.

         The following table sets forth the location of the 16 Properties,
including 15 Properties consisting of land and building and one Property
consisting of building only, acquired by the Company, from October 4, 1997
through November 18, 1997, a description of the competition, and a summary of
the principal terms of the acquisition and lease of each Property.

PENDING INVESTMENTS

         As of November 18, 1997, the Company had initial commitments to acquire
eight properties, including seven properties consisting of land and building and
one property consisting of building only. 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 eight 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."

         In connection with the IHOP property in Saugus, Massachusetts, the
Company anticipates owning only the building and not the underlying land.
However, the Company anticipates entering into a landlord estoppel agreement
with the landlord of the land and a collateral assignment of the ground lease
with the lessee in order to provide the Company with certain rights with respect
to the land on which the building is 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)      In the event the Company purchases the property directly from the
         lessee, the lessee will have no option to purchase the property.

(3)      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 landlord estoppel agreement with the
         landlord of the land and a collateral assignment of the ground lease
         with the lessee in order to provide the Company with certain rights
         with respect to the land on which the building is located.

(4)      The lease term shall expire upon the earlier of (i) the date 20 years
         from the date of closing, (ii) the expiration of the original term of
         the ground lease, or (iii) the earlier termination of the ground lease.

(5)      For each lease year, percentage rent shall be calculated upon the
         amount by which gross sales exceed a to be determined breakpoint (base
         sales) as follows; 6% for an increase of 0% to 33.33% above base sales,
         5.5% for an increase of 33.34% to 66.7% above base sales, and 5% for an
         increase of 66.8% to 100% above base sales. For increases in gross
         sales in excess of 100%, percentage rent shall decrease by .5% for
         every additional 33.33% increase above base sales.

BORROWING

         Between October 4, 1997 and November 18, 1997, the Company obtained
four advances totalling $1,315,142 under the Line of Credit. The proceeds of
these advances were used to acquire Equipment for four restaurant properties,
one in each of Rapid City, South Dakota; London, Kentucky; Guadalupe, Arizona;
and Sparta, Tennessee.

         In addition, on November 14, 1997, the Company used $19 million of
uninvested net offering proceeds to repay a portion of the balance outstanding
under the Line of Credit in order to reduce interest expense incurred by the
Company pending the investment of such offering proceeds in Properties or
Mortgage Loans.

FOOTNOTES:

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

(2)      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."

(3)      Estimated at 6.2% of gross rental 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.

(4)      The estimated federal tax basis of the depreciable portion (the
         building portion) of each Property has been depreciated on the
         straight-line method over 39 years.
