                     INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


To The Board of Trustees of
Home Properties
Retirement Savings Plan
Rochester, New York

We  have  audited  the accompanying statements of net assets available
for  benefits with fund  information  of  Home  Properties  Retirement
Savings  Plan  as  of  December  31,  1997  and  1996, and the related
statements of changes in net assets available for  benefits  with fund
information for the years then ended.  These financial statements  are
the responsibility of the Plan's management.  Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements 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 financial statements
are free  of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a
test basis,  evidence  supporting  the  amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates  made by management, as well
as  evaluating  the  overall  financial  statement  presentation.   We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements,  referred  to  above present
fairly,  in  all  material  respects,  the  net  assets available  for
benefits with fund information of the Plan as of December 31, 1997 and
1996, and the changes in net assets available for  benefits  with fund
information  for  the  years  then ended, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

        Plan provides only  general information.  Participants should refer to
        the Plan agreement for  a  more  complete  description  of  the Plan's
        provisions.

        GENERAL
        The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering all employees of Home
        Properties of New York, Inc. who are 21 years of age or older  and who
        have  completed  one year of service.  It is subject to the provisions
        of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).  Prior
        to  January  1,  1996,  the  plan  covered  the  employees  of  Hauser
        Corporation  and   Fluoro   Film,   Inc.  (entities  related  to  Home
        Properties  of New York, Inc. through  common  ownership).   Effective
        January 1, 1996,  the  assets associated with participants employed by
        Hauser Corporation and Fluoro  Film, Inc. were spun-off into their own
        plan.

        TRUST
        State Street Bank and Trust Co.  (Exeter  Trust)  serves as trustee of
        the Plan.

        CONTRIBUTIONS
        Each  year,  the sponsor may contribute such amount as  its  Board  of
        Directors  shall,   at   its  discretion,  determine.   Employees  may
        contribute to the Plan a percentage  of  their compensation or a fixed
        dollar  amount each pay period.  In addition,  the  employer  makes  a
        matching    contribution   based   on   participants'   tax   deferred
        contributions.

        PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS
        Each participant's  account is credited with an allocation of: (1) his
        or her tax deferred contribution, (2) the company's contributions, (3)
        Plan earnings, and (4)  forfeitures  of  terminated participants' non-
        vested  accounts.  Allocations are based on  participant  earnings  or
        account balances,  as  defined.  The benefit to which a participant is
        entitled is the benefit  that  can  be provided from the participant's
        account.

        VESTING
        Each participant's interest in his/her  employee  contribution account
        is fully vested at all times.  The Plan provides for  vesting  in  the
        employer  contribution account of 20% after two years, 40% after three
        years, 60%  after four years, 80% after five years, and 100% after six
        years of service.

NOTE 1  Description of Plan - Continued

        INVESTMENT OPTIONS
        Effective  January  1,  1996  and  upon  enrollment  in  the  Plan,  a
        participant  may  direct  contributions  to  the  Plan  to any of four
        investment options.

        1)  Stable  Income - This Option invests in a pooled investment  trust
               fund.   The  Fund  is  comprised  of a diversified portfolio of
               GIC's   and/or   other  stable  value  investments,   such   as
               certificates of deposits.   The  objective of this option is to
               generate a relatively high rate of  interest  while  protecting
               against declines in market value.

        2)  All  Equity  -  This  Portfolio  consists  of  common stocks.  The
               objective is to generate capital growth over time.

        3) Growth with Reduced Volatility - This Portfolio consists  of common
               stocks,  bonds and cash equivalents in an effort to generate  a
               significant rate of capital growth over time.

        4) Long-Term Growth  - This Portfolio consists of common stocks, bonds
               and cash equivalents  in  an  effort  to generate a significant
               rate of capital growth over time.

        5) Company Stock - Effective October 1, 1996,  participants may invest
          in common stock of Home Properties of New York, Inc.

        PARTICIPANT NOTES RECEIVABLE
        Participants may borrow from their accounts a minimum  of  $1,000 to a
        maximum equal to the lessor of $50,000 or 50% of their vested  account
        balance.   Loan  transactions are treated as a transfer to (from)  the
        investment fund from  (to)  the  Participant  Notes  Fund.  Loan terms
        range from one to five years, or longer for the purchase  of a primary
        residence.   The loans are secured by the balance in the participant's
        account and bear  interest  at the prime rate plus one percent (1%) in
        effect on the first day of the  month  in  which  the  loan  is  made.
        Interest  rates  range  from  7%  to 9.75% for the current outstanding
        notes.  Principal and interest is paid ratably through weekly or semi-
        monthly payroll deductions.

        PAYMENT OF BENEFITS
        The Plan provides for normal retirement  benefits upon reaching age 65
        and  has  provisions  for  early  retirement,  disability,  death  and
        termination  benefits  for  those  participants who  are  eligible  to
        receive such benefits.

        On termination of service, a participant may elect to receive:

        (1) A lump sum amount equal to the value of his or her account, or

        (2) Annual installments over a period of time not to exceed 15 years.

             DECEMBER 31, 1997 AND 1996

NOTE 1  Description of Plan - Continued

        PLAN TERMINATION
        Although the Company has not expressed an intent to do so, the Company
        has the right under the Plan to discontinue  contributions at any time
        and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions  of ERISA.  In the
        event  of  Plan termination, participants will become 100%  vested  in
        their accounts.

        TAX STATUS
        In October,  1993, the Company adopted a prototype plan which received
        a favorable determination  letter from the Internal Revenue Service in
        April,  1993 stating that the  Plan  qualifies  under  the  applicable
        provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, including Section 401(k).

NOTE 2  Significant Accounting Policies

        METHOD OF ACCOUNTING
        The financial  statements  of  the Plan are prepared under the accrual
        method of accounting.

        INVESTMENT VALUATION AND INCOME RECOGNITION
        The Plan's investments are stated at fair value.  Shares of registered
        investment  companies  are  valued   at  quoted  market  prices  which
        represent the net asset value of shares  held by the Plan at year-end.
        The Company stock is valued at its quoted  market  price.  Participant
        notes receivable are valued at cost which approximates fair value.

        Purchases  and  sales of securities are recorded on a  settlement-date  
        basis.  Interest income is  recorded  on  the  accrual  basis.
        Dividends are recorded on the date received.

        PAYMENT OF BENEFITS
        Benefits are recorded when paid.

        MANAGEMENT ESTIMATES
        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 disclosures  of  contingent  assets and liabilities at
        the date of the financial statements and revenues  and expenses during
        the  reporting  period.   Actual  results  could  differ  from   those
        estimates.

        ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
        The Company absorbs significant administrative costs of the Plan.

To the Board of Trustees of
Home Properties
Retirement Savings Plan
Rochester, New York

Our audits were made for the purpose  of  forming  an  opinion  on the
basic  financial  statements  taken  as  a  whole.   The supplementary
schedules  of  assets  held for investment purposes and reportable  5%
transactions as of or for  the  year  ended  December  31,  1997,  are
presented  for  the  purpose  of  additional  analysis  and  are not a
required part of the basic financial statements, but are supplementary
information   required   by   the  Department  of  Labor's  Rules  and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974.  The  supplemental  schedules  have  been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic
financial  statements  and,  in  our  opinion, is fairly stated in all
material respects in relation to the basic  financial statements taken
as a whole.

Respectfully Submitted,
