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 the Detroit
Acquisition Properties for the year ended December 31, 1996. The
statement of revenues and certain expenses is the responsibility
of the Detroit Acquisition Properties' management.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on the statement of
revenues and certain expenses based on our audit.

We conducted our audit 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 audit provides 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 the Detroit Acquisition Properties' 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 the
Detroit Acquisition Properties for the year ended December 31,
1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

1.   Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting
     Policies

Business

The accompanying statement of revenues and certain expenses
includes the operations (see "Basis of Presentation" below) of
the Detroit Acquisition Properties, 11 residential properties
owned by parties not related to Home Properties of New York, Inc.
(the "Company").

The Company, through its subsidiary Home Properties of New York,
L.P., acquired 100% of the real estate of the Detroit Acquisition
Properties, 3,106 apartment units located in 11 communities in
suburban markets in the surrounding Detroit, Michigan, on
October 29, 1997.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statement is not representative of the
actual operations of the Detroit Acquisition Properties for the
period shown. Certain expenses have been excluded which may not
be comparable to the proposed future operations of the Detroit
Acquisition Properties.  Expenses excluded relate to property
management fees, interest expense, depreciation and amortization
expense and other expenses not directly related to the future
operations of the Detroit Acquisition Properties. The Company is
not aware of any material factors relating to the Detroit
Acquisition Properties 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 from January 1 through September
30, 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.
