Report of Independent Accountants





To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Home Properties of
New York, Inc.



We have audited the accompanying statement of revenues and
certain expenses, as defined in Note 1, of 1600 East Avenue
Apartments for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994.
The statement of revenues and certain expenses is the
responsibility of 1600 East Avenue Apartments' management.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on the statement of
revenues and certain expenses based on our audits.

We conducted our audits 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 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
statement of revenues and certain expenses.  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 of revenues and certain expenses.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

The accompanying statement of revenues and certain expenses was
prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, as
described in Note 1, and is not intended to be a complete
presentation of 1600 East Avenue Apartments' revenues and
expenses.

In our opinion, the statement of revenues and certain expenses
referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the
revenues and certain expenses, as defined in Note 1, of 1600 East
Avenue Apartments for the year ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and
1994, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

     Policies

Business

The accompanying statement of revenues and certain expenses
includes the operations (see "Basis of Presentation" below) of
1600 East Avenue Apartments, a residential property owned by
parties not related to Home Properties of New York, Inc. (the
"Company").  However, the operations of the property were leased
to affiliates of the Company and the Company managed the property
for the affiliates.  Management fees paid to the Company were
approximately $75,000, $95,000 and $38,000, respectively for the
years ended December 31, 1996, 1995, and 1994, respectively.

The Company, through its subsidiary Home Properties of New York,
L.P., acquired 100% of the real estate of 1600 East Avenue
Apartments, a 164 unit apartment community located in Rochester,
New York, on May 28, 1997.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statement is not representative of the
actual operations of 1600 East Avenue Apartments for the periods
shown. Certain expenses have been excluded which may not be
comparable to the proposed future operations of 1600 East Avenue
Apartments.  Expenses excluded relate to property management
fees, interest expense, depreciation and amortization expense and
other expenses not directly related to the future operations of
1600 East Avenue Apartments.  The Company is not aware of any
material factors relating to 1600 East Avenue Apartments that
would cause the reported financial information not to be
necessarily indicative of future operating results.

Revenue Recognition

Rental income attributable to residential leases is recorded when
due from residents.  Leases are generally for terms of one year.

Interim Unaudited Financial Statement

The accompanying interim unaudited statement of revenues and
certain expenses for the period ended September 18, 1997 has been
prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission.  The results of operations of such
interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for
the full year.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
