                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
          (UNAUDITED, IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA)

1.   UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     The interim consolidated financial statements of Home  Properties  of  New
     York,  Inc.  (the "Company") are prepared pursuant to the requirements for
     reporting on Form  10-Q.   Accordingly,  certain  disclosures accompanying
     annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
     accounting principles are omitted.  The year-end balance  sheet  data  was
     derived  from  audited  financial  statements,  but  does  not include all
     disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles.   In the
     opinion  of  management,  all  adjustments,  consisting  solely  of normal
     recurring   adjustments,  necessary  for  the  fair  presentation  of  the
     consolidated  financial  statements  for  the  interim  periods  have been
     included.   The current period's results of operations are not necessarily
     indicative of  results which ultimately may be achieved for the year.  The
     interim consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read
     in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in
     the Company's Form  10-K,  as  filed  with  the  Securities  and  Exchange
     Commission on March 24, 1998.

2.   ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     ORGANIZATION
     Home  Properties  of  New  York,  Inc.  (the  "  Company " ) was formed in
     November 1993, as a Maryland corporation and is engaged  primarily  in the
     ownership,   management,   acquisition   and  development  of  residential
     apartment  communities in the Northeastern,  Mid-Atlantic  and  Midwestern
     United States.   As  of March 31, 1998, the Company operated 162 apartment
     communities with 22,862  apartments.   Of this total, the Company owned 67
     communities, consisting of 15,514 apartments,  managed  as general partner
     4,802 apartments and fee managed 2,546 apartments for affiliates and third
     parties.  The Company also fee manages 1.7 million square  feet  of office
     and retail properties.

     BASIS OF PRESENTATION
     The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
     the  Company  and  its 55.0% (70.6% at March 31, 1997) general partnership
     interest in the Operating  Partnership.   The  remaining  45.0%  (29.4% at
     March  31,  1997)  is reflected as Minority Interest in these consolidated
     financial statements.

     All  significant  intercompany   balances   and   transactions  have  been
     eliminated in these consolidated financial statements.

3.   EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

     The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS)
     No.  128,  "Earnings  per  Share",  which  was  issued  by  the  Financial
     Accounting Standards Board in February 1997.  SFAS No. 128  requires  dual
     presentation of basic earnings per share (EPS) and diluted EPS on the face
     of  all statements of earnings for periods ending after December 15, 1997.
     Basic EPS is computed as net income divided by the weighted average number
     of common  shares  outstanding  for  the period.  Diluted EPS reflects the
     potential dilution that could occur from  common  shares  issuable through
     stock-based  compensation  including  stock options.  The exchange  of  an
     Operating Partnership Unit for common stock will have no effect on diluted
     EPS as unitholders and stockholders effectively  share  equally in the net
     income of the Operating Partnership.

               ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

The  following  discussion  is  based  primarily on the consolidated  financial
statements of Home Properties of New York,  Inc.  as of March 31, 1998 and 1997
and for the three month periods then ended.  This information should be read in
conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial  statements  and notes
thereto.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This  discussion  contains  forward-looking  statements.   Although the Company
believes expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on
reasonable assumptions, it can give no assurance that its expectations  will be
achieved.   Factors  that  may  cause  actual results to differ include general
economic and local real estate conditions,  other  conditions that might affect
operating  expenses,  the  timely  completion  of  repositioning   and  current
development  activities  within anticipated budgets, the actual pace of  future
acquisitions and developments and continued access to capital to fund growth.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's principal liquidity  demands  are expected to be distributions to
stockholders,  capital  improvements  and  repairs   and  maintenance  for  the
properties,  acquisition  of  additional properties, property  development  and
scheduled debt maturities.

The Company intends to meet its  short-term  liquidity requirements through net
cash flows provided by operating activities and  its  unsecured line of credit.
The Company considers its ability to generate cash to continue  to  be adequate
to  meet  all operating requirements and make distributions to its stockholders
in accordance  with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, to
enable the Company to qualify as a REIT.

The Company has  an  unsecured  line of credit from Chase Manhattan Bank of $50
million  with  an available capacity  of  $27.8  million  at  March  31,  1998.
Borrowings under  the  line of credit bear interest at 1.25% over the one-month
LIBOR  rate.  Accordingly,  increases  in  interest  rates  will  increase  the
Company's interest expense and as a result will effect the Company's results of
operations  and  financial  condition.  The unsecured line of credit expires on
September 4, 1999, with a one  year  extension  at the Company's option.  As of
April 30, 1998, the entire $50 million is available  as  a  result of using the
net proceeds from equity raised in a direct placement to a major  institutional
investor to repay the outstanding balance.

To  the  extent  that  the  Company  does  not  satisfy its long-term liquidity
requirements through net cash flows provided by operating  activities  and  its
unsecured  line  of credit, it intends to satisfy such requirements through the
issuance  of  UPREIT  units,  proceeds  from  the  Dividend  Reinvestment  Plan
("DRIP"), long  term  secured  or  unsecured  indebtedness,  or the issuance of
additional equity securities.  As of March 31, 1998, the Company  owned twenty-
four properties with 4,962 apartment units, which were unencumbered by debt.

As  of  February  28,  1997, the Company's Form S-3 Registration Statement  was
declared effective relating  to the issuance of up to $100 million of shares of
common stock or other securities.   At  December 31, 1997, $59 million remained
available under the shelf.  During March  1998,  $10.5 million of common shares
were issued under the shelf registration, with an  additional  $35  million  of
common shares issued in a direct placement to a major institutional investor in
April  1998, leaving a capacity of $13.5 million.  On May 14, 1998, the Company
filed a  Form S-3 Registration Statement relating to the issuance of up to $400
million of unsecured debt, preferred stock or other equity securities.

               ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION CONT'D

The issuance  of  UPREIT  Units  for  property  acquisitions  continues to be a
significant  source  of  capital.  During 1997, 5,636 apartment units  in  four
separate transactions were  acquired  for  a  total  cost of $195 million using
UPREIT Units valued in excess of $106 million, with the balance paid in cash or
assumed  debt.  During 1998, 858 apartment units in two  separate  transactions
were acquired  for  a  total  cost  of $40 million using UPREIT Units valued in
excess of $31 million, with the balance paid in cash or assumed debt.

In addition, over $36 million was raised  during  1997  through  the  Company's
DRIP,  including  over  $4.5  million  from  officers  and  directors  financed
partially  by  a  Company loan of $2.3 million.  An additional $20 million  has
been raised through the DRIP program during the first four months of 1998.

The Company's Board  of  Directors  approved  a  stock repurchase program under
which the Company may repurchase up to one million  shares  of  its outstanding
common  stock.   The  Board's  action  did  not establish a target price  or  a
specific timetable for repurchase.  During June  1997,  the Company repurchased
20,000 shares at a cost of $.426 million.

As of March 31, 1998, the weighted average rate of interest on mortgage debt is
7.6% and the weighted average maturity is 7.0 years.  Most of the debt is fixed
rate, with only 9% variable rate debt.  This limits the exposure  to changes in
interest  rates,  minimizing the effect on results of operations and  financial
condition.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998 TO THE SAME PERIOD IN 1997

The  Company had 27 apartment  communities  with  6,552  units  and  one  small
ancillary  convenience  shopping area which were owned during both of the three
month  periods  being presented  (the  "Core  Properties").   The  Company  has
acquired an additional  40  apartment communities with 8,962 units  during 1997
and  1998  (the  "Acquired Communities").   The  inclusion  of  these  Acquired
Communities generally  accounted  for  the  significant  changes  in  operating
results for three months ended March 31, 1998.

A summary of the Core Property net operating income is as follows:

                              1998         1997          %CHANGE

Rent                          $11,467,000  $11,108,000    3.2%
Property other income             376,000      322,000   16.8%
Total income                   11,843,000   11,430,000    3.6%
Operating and Maintenance     ( 5,805,000) ( 6,189,000)   6.2%

Net operating income          $ 6,038,000  $ 5,241,000   15.2%

Of  the  $12,515,000 increase in rental income, $12,156,000 is attributable  to
the Acquired Communities.  The balance of this increase, which is from the Core
Properties,  was  the  result of an increase of 2.5% in weighted average rental
rates, plus an increase in occupancy from 93.0% to 93.7%.

Of the $66,000 increase  in  property other income, $261,000 is attributable to
the Acquired Communities, with $54,000 representing a 17% increase for the Core
Properties.  This increase reflects  bringing  more  laundry  "in-house" versus
contracting out. The balance, a $249,000 decrease, is from the  Company's share
of income/loss from various general partnership interests.

Interest  income increased $649,000, primarily attributable to an  increase  in
construction  loans  and  advances  made  to  affiliated tax credit development
partnerships.

Other income decreased by $299,000 due primarily  to  differences in the amount
of bonus accruals recorded during each period by the Management Companies.

                                                        Page 11 of 15

Of the $5,210,000 increase in operating and maintenance expenses, $5,594,000 is
attributable to the Acquired Communities.  The balance  for the Core Properties
represents a 6.2% decrease over 1997.  The major areas of  decrease in the Core
Properties occurred in utilities and snow removal costs.  Our extreme mild 1998
weather, combined with normal gas rates (compared to very high  rates  in 1997)
resulted  in  a  positive  variance  in  utilities  of  $357,000, or 21.4%, and
$47,000, or 16.7% in snow removal costs.

General  and  administrative  expense  increased in 1998 by $830,000,  or  219%
during  a  period  when  the Company more than  doubled  the  number  of  owned
apartment units.  General  and administrative expenses as a percentage of total
revenues increased from 2.7%  in  1997 to 4.5% in 1998.  The biggest reason for
this percentage growth is a result of the Company's incentive compensation plan
which  rewards exceptional FFO growth  per  share.   The  extraordinary  growth
during the first quarter of 1998 resulted in a $200,000 bonus accrual this year
compared  to  no  bonus accrual in the first quarter of 1997.  In addition, the
Company recorded a  $73,000  non-recurring expense related to doing business in
the State of Pennsylvania.

FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS

Management considers funds from  operations  to  be  an  appropriate measure of
performance  of  an  equity  REIT.   The  National Association of  Real  Estate
Investment  Trusts ("NAREIT") revised White  Paper  definition  of  funds  from
operations is income (loss) before gains (losses) from the sale of property and
extraordinary  items,  before  minority  interest in the Operating Partnership,
plus real estate depreciation.  Management believes that in order to facilitate
a  clear  understanding of the combined historical  operating  results  of  the
Company, funds  from  operations  should  be considered in conjunction with net
income as presented in the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere
herein.  Funds from operations does not represent cash generated from operating
activities in accordance with generally accepted  accounting  principles and is
not  necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs.   Funds  from
operations  should  not  be  considered  as  an alternative to net income as an
indication  of  the Company's performance or to  cash  flow  as  a  measure  of
liquidity.

The calculation of  funds  from  operations  for  the previous six quarters are

Accordingly,  the  above  presentation may not be comparable to other similarly
titled measures of FFO of other REITs.

INFLATION

Substantially all of the leases  at  the communities are for a term of one year
or less, which enables the Company to  seek  increased  rents  upon  renewal of
existing  leases  or  commencement  of  new  leases.   These  short-term leases
minimize  the potential adverse effect of inflation on rental income,  although

                                                        Page 12 of 15

residents may  leave without penalty at the end of their lease terms and may do
so if rents are increased significantly.

DECLARATION OF DIVIDEND

On May 5, 1998,  the  Board  of Directors approved a dividend of $.45 per share
for  the period from October 1,  1997  to  December  31,  1997.   This  is  the
equivalent  of  an  annual  distribution  of  $1.80 per share.  The dividend is
payable May 27, 1998 to shareholders of record on May 15, 1998.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On April 30, 1998, the Company acquired 1,589 apartment units plus 6.8 acres of
vacant land in 4 communities located in Baltimore,  Maryland  and  its suburbs.
The  total  purchase  price  and  closing  costs of $53.7 million included  the
assumption of existing debt of approximately  $8.8 million plus the issuance of
UPREIT units valued at approximately $21.4 million,  new  mortgage financing in
the amount of $20.6 million, plus cash of $2.9 million.  The  Company  paid $.5
million  in prepayment penalties at closing, which will be expensed during  the
second quarter.
