Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

Since the filing of the  last  Form  8-K  by  the  Company on April 9, 1998, the
Company has acquired  five  additional  properties.    As  of the acquisition of
Berwyn Plaza on May 15, 1998,  the aggregate purchase prices of these properties
exceeded 10 percent of the total assets  of the Company as of December 31, 1997,
and accordingly, the Company is filing this Form 8-K.

Bergen Plaza, Oakdale, Minnesota

On April 16, 1998, the  Company  acquired  the  entire  fee simple interest in a
Community Center located at 7101  10th  Street North in Oakdale, Minnesota known
as "Bergen Plaza" from Bergen  Investments  L.L.C., an unaffiliated third party,
for approximately  $17,247,680  (approximately  $63.74  per  square  foot).  The
purchase price was funded using cash and cash equivalents.  The Company believes
that the purchase price was fair  and  reasonable and within the range of values
indicated in an appraisal received by the Company and presented to the Company's
board of directors. 

Bergen Plaza, built in 1978 and expanded  to in 1988 through 1990, consists of a
multi-tenant retail  center  complex  consisting  of  five buildings aggregating
270,610 rentable square feet.  As of April 20, 1998, Bergen Plaza was 98% leased
(100% leased if the master lease, which lasts for 24 months, is considered).  In
evaluating Bergen Plaza as  a  potential  acquisition,  the Company considered a
variety of  factors  including  location,  demographics,  tenant  mix, price per
square foot, existing rental rates compared to market rates, and occupancy.  The
Company believes that the center is  located  within a vibrant economic area and
that the grocery anchor tenant  enhances  our first acquisition in the Minnesota
market.  Although approximately 56% of  the rentable square feet at Bergen Plaza
is leased to two tenants,  the  Company  believes  that retenanting of any space
which is vacated in the future  should be accomplished relatively quickly and at
rental rates comparable to those currently  paid by the tenants at the facility.
The Company did  not  consider  any  other  factors  materially  relevant to the
decision to acquire the property.  

The Company anticipates spending approximately $225,000 for roof and parking lot
repairs to Bergen Plaza over the next  few years.  The Company received a credit
at closing of approximately $225,000 toward these costs. 

The table below sets  forth  certain  information  with respect to the occupancy
rate at Bergen Plaza expressed as a  percentage of total gross leasable area and
the average effective annual base rent per square foot:

The Company received an appraisal prepared by an independent appraiser who is a
member in good standing  of  the  American  Institute of Real Estate Appraisers
which reported a  fair  market  value  for  the  Bergen  Plaza  property, as of
February 20, 1998,  of  $17,770,000.    Appraisals  are  estimates of value and
should not be relied on as a measure of true worth or realizable value.


High Point Centre, Madison, Wisconsin

On April 24, 1998, the  Company  acquired  the  entire fee simple interest in a
Neighborhood Retail Center  located  at  7475  Mineral  Point  Road in Madison,
Wisconsin  known  as  "High  Point   Centre"  from  The  Gialamas  Company,  an
unaffiliated third party, for  approximately  $10,354,000.   The purchase price
was  funded  using  cash  and  cash   equivalents.    The  purchase  price  was
approximately $119.73 per square foot, which the Company concluded was fair and
reasonable and within the range of values indicated in an appraisal received by
the Company and presented to the Company's board of directors. 

High Point Centre was built in  1984  and consists of a one-story, multi-tenant
retail facility aggregating 86,476 rentable square feet.  As of April 24, 1998,
High Point Centre was 99% leased (100%  leased if the master lease, which lasts
for one year, is considered).   In  evaluating High Point Centre as a potential
acquisition, the Company considered  a  variety  of factors including location,
demographics, tenant mix, price per square foot, existing rental rates compared
to market rates,  and  occupancy.    The  Company  believes  High Point Centre,
adjacent to this areas regional  mall,  is  strategically located in the newest
and fastest growing sector of the  metro  Madison  area.  This area, along with
High Point Centre,  has  long  enjoyed  high  occupancy  rates.   The Company's
management believes that  retenanting  of  any  space  which  is vacated in the
future should be accomplished relatively quickly and at rental rates comparable
to those currently paid by vacating  tenants  at the facility.  The Company did
not consider any other factors  materially  relevant to the decision to acquire
the property.  

The Company does not anticipate making any significant repairs and improvements
to High Point Centre over the  next  few  years.  Nevertheless, pursuant to the
leases, a substantial portion of any  cost of repairs and improvements would be
paid by the tenants.

The table below sets forth  certain  information  with respect to the occupancy
rate at High Point Centre  expressed  as  a  percentage of total gross leasable
area and the average effective annual base rent per square foot:

Western & Howard, Chicago, Illinois

On April 30, 1998, the  Company  acquired  the  entire fee simple interest in a
Neighborhood Retail Center located  at  2357  West  Howard in Chicago, Illinois
known as "Western & Howard"  from  Michael Tansey, an unaffiliated third party,
for approximately $1,913,000.   The  purchase  price  was funded using cash and
cash equivalents.   The  purchase  price  was  approximately $149.64 per square
foot, which the Company concluded was  fair and reasonable and within the range
of values indicated in an  appraisal  received  by the Company and presented to
the Company's board of directors. 

Western & Howard was built  in  1985  and consists of a one-story, multi-tenant
retail facility aggregating 12,784 rentable square feet.  As of April 30, 1998,
Western & Howard  was  100%  leased.    In  evaluating  Western  &  Howard as a
potential acquisition, the Company  considered  a  variety of factors including
location, demographics, tenant  mix,  price  per  square  foot, existing rental
rates compared to  market  rates,  and  occupancy.    The  center's tenants are
national tenants.  The Company believes  each of these tenants is creditworthy.
The Company believes that the center  is  located within a highly populated and
vibrant economic area.  This center  has  been  100% occupied by the same three
tenants since 1985 when it was  built.   Remaining lease terms range from three
to seven years. The Company's management believes that retenanting of any space
which is vacated in the future should be accomplished relatively quickly and at
rental rates comparable to  those  currently  paid  by  vacating tenants at the
facility.  The Company did  not  consider any other factors materially relevant
to the decision to acquire the property.  

The Company does not anticipate making any significant repairs and improvements
to Western & Howard over  the  next  few  years.  Nevertheless, pursuant to the
leases, a substantial portion of any  cost of repairs and improvements would be
paid by the tenants.

The table below sets forth  certain  information  with respect to the occupancy
rate at Western & Howard expressed as a percentage of total gross leasable area
and the average effective annual base rent per square foot:

Wauconda Shopping Center, Wauconda, Illinois

On May 5, 1998,  the  Company  acquired  the  entire  fee  simple interest in a
Neighborhood Retail Center located  at  620  West Liberty in Wauconda, Illinois
known as "Wauconda Shopping Center"  from  Michael Scott, an unaffiliated third
party, for approximately $2,525,000.  The  purchase price was funded using cash
and cash equivalents.  The  purchase  price was approximately $81.04 per square
foot, which the Company concluded was  fair and reasonable and within the range
of values indicated in an  appraisal  received  by the Company and presented to
the Company's board of directors. 




                                     -10-



Wauconda Shopping Center was built in  1988 and consists of a one-story, multi-
tenant retail facility aggregating 31,157 rentable  square  feet.  As of May 5,
1998, Wauconda  Shopping  Center  was  100%  leased.    In  evaluating Wauconda
Shopping Center as a potential acquisition, the Company considered a variety of
factors including location, demographics,  tenant  mix,  price per square foot,
existing rental rates compared  to  market  rates,  and occupancy.  The Company
believes that the  center  is  located  within  a  vibrant  economic area.  The
center's anchor tenant is a national tenant.  Although approximately 69% of the
rentable square feet at Wauconda Shopping  Center  is leased to one tenant, the
Company's management believes that retenanting of any space which is vacated in
the future  should  be  accomplished  relatively  quickly  and  at rental rates
comparable to those currently  paid  by  the  vacating tenants at the facility.
The Company did  not  consider  any  other  factors  materially relevant to the
decision to acquire the property.  

The Company does not anticipate making any significant repairs and improvements
to Wauconda Shopping Center over the next few years.  Nevertheless, pursuant to
the leases, a substantial portion of any cost of repairs and improvements would
be paid by the tenants.

The table below sets forth  certain  information  with respect to the occupancy
rate at Wauconda  Shopping  Center  expressed  as  a  percentage of total gross
leasable area and the average effective annual base rent per square foot:

The accompanying financial  statements  have  been  prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles  for interim financial information and
with instructions to Form 10-Q and  Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly,
they do not include all of  the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for  complete  financial statements.  Readers of
this  Quarterly  Report  should  refer   to  the  Company's  audited  financial
statements for the fiscal year ended  December  31, 1997, which are included in
the Company's 1997 Annual Report,  as  certain footnote disclosures which would
substantially duplicate those  contained  in  such audited financial statements
have been  omitted  from  this  Report.    In  the  opinion  of management, all
adjustments (consisting of  normal  recurring  accruals)  necessary  for a fair
presentation have been included.

(1) Organization and Basis of Accounting

Inland Real Estate Corporation (the "Company") was formed on May 12, 1994.  The
Company may acquire existing Neighborhood  Retail Centers and Community Centers
located primarily within an approximate  400-mile radius of its headquarters in
Oak  Brook,  Illinois.    The  Company  may  also  acquire  single-user  retail
properties in locations throughout the  United  States, certain of which may be
sale and leaseback  transactions,  net  leased  to  creditworthy  tenants.  The
Company is  also  permitted  to  construct  or  develop  properties,  or render
services in connection with  such  development  or construction, subject to the
Company's compliance with  the  rules  governing  real estate investment trusts
under the Code, as amended.    Inland  Real Estate Advisory Services, Inc. (the
"Advisor"), an Affiliate of the Company, is the advisor to the Company.

On October 14, 1994, the  Company  commenced  an  initial public offering, on a
best efforts basis, ("Initial  Offering")  of  5,000,000 shares of common stock
("Shares").  As of July 24, 1996,  the Company had received subscriptions for a
total of 5,000,000 Shares, thereby  completing  the  Initial Offering.  On July
24, 1996, the Company commenced an  offering of an additional 10,000,000 Shares
at $10.00 per Share, on a best  efforts  basis, (the "Second Offering").  As of
July 10, 1997, the Company had received subscriptions for a total of 10,000,000
Shares, thereby completing the Second Offering.   On July 14, 1997, the Company
commenced an offering of an  additional  20,000,000 Shares at $10.00 per Share,
on a best efforts basis,  (the  "Third  Offering").  As  of March 19, 1998, the
Company had received subscriptions  for  a  total of 20,000,000 Shares, thereby
completing the Third Offering.  In addition,  as of March 31, 1998, the Company
has  distributed   1,070,778   Shares   through   the   Company's  Distribution
Reinvestment  Program  ("DRP").    As  of  March  31,  1998,  the  Company  has
repurchased a total of 53,100 Shares  through the Share Repurchase Program.  As
a result, as of March 31,  1998, Gross Offering Proceeds total $357,939,054 net
of Shares repurchased through the Share Repurchase Program.

                                March 31, 1998
                                  (unaudited)


The Company qualified as  a  real  estate  investment  trust ("REIT") under the
Internal Revenue Code of  1986,  as  amended,  for  federal income tax purposes
commencing with the tax  year  ending  December  31,  1995.   Since the Company
qualified for taxation as a REIT, the  Company generally will not be subject to
federal income tax to the extent it  distributes its REIT taxable income to its
stockholders.  If the Company fails to  qualify  as a REIT in any taxable year,
the Company will be subject  to  federal  income  tax  on its taxable income at
regular corporate tax rates.  Even  if  the Company qualifies for taxation as a
REIT, the Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income
and property and federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income.

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 periods.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The Company considers all highly  liquid  investments purchased with a maturity
of three months or less to be  cash  equivalents and are carried at cost, which
approximates fair value. 

Restricted cash at March  31,  1998  includes  $823,474  held in escrow for the
principal payments on the Aurora Commons  mortgage payable and $146,465 held in
escrow by the mortgagee for the payment  of real estate taxes at Aurora Commons
and Shoppes at Mill Creek Shopping  Center.   Restricted cash at March 31, 1998
also includes amounts held  as  vacancy  escrows  on Cobblers Crossing, Mallard
Crossing, Shorecrest  Shopping  Center,  Sequoia  Shopping  Center,  Shoppes at
Coopers Grove, Orland Park  Retail,  Prairie  Square, Lake Park Plaza, Chestnut
Court and St. James Crossing.    The  monthly  amounts drawn for rent under the
master  lease  escrows  decrease  the   basis  of  the  respective  properties.
Restricted cash at March 31, 1998 also includes $556,025 held in escrow for the
second phase of construction at Oak  Forest  Commons and $95,985 held in escrow
for possible vacancies  upon  completion  of  the  second  phase  at Oak Forest
Commons.  Restricted cash at March  31,  1998 also includes $325,000 for tenant
improvement costs at Fashion Square.

Statement of Financial Accounting  Standards  No.  121  requires the Company to
record an impairment loss on  its  property  to be held for investment whenever
its carrying value  cannot  be  fully  recovered through estimated undiscounted
future cash flows from operations and  sale  of  properties.  The amount of the
impairment loss to be recognized would be the difference between the property's
carrying value and the property's estimated fair  value.  As of March 31, 1998,
the Company does not believe any such impairments of its properties exists.

Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method.  Buildings and
improvements are depreciated based upon estimated  useful lives of 30 years for
the building and building improvements and 15 years for the site improvements.

Loan fees are amortized on a straight  line  basis over the life of the related
loans.

Deferred organization costs are amortized over a 60-month period.

Offering costs are offset against  the Stockholders' equity accounts.  Offering
costs consist principally of printing, selling and registration costs.

Rental income is recognized  on  a  straight-line  basis  over the term of each
lease.  The difference between  rental  income  earned on a straight-line basis
and the cash rent due under the  provisions of the lease agreements is recorded
as deferred rent receivable.

The Company believes  that  the  interest  rates  associated with the mortgages
payable and notes payable to  Affiliates  approximate the market interest rates
for these types of debt instruments,  and  as  such, the carrying amount of the
mortgages payable and notes payable to Affiliates approximate their fair value.

Certain reclassifications were made to the 1997 financial statements to conform
with the 1998 presentation.


(2) Transactions with Affiliates

The Advisor and its Affiliates  are  entitled to reimbursement for salaries and
expenses of employees of the Advisor and its Affiliates relating to each of the
Offerings.  Such expenses  include  postage,  data processing and marketing and
are reimbursed at cost.   The  collective costs to Affiliates incurred relating
to the Offerings were $873,048 and $1,047,694 as of March 31, 1998 and December
31, 1997, respectively, of which all was  paid as of March 31, 1998 and $24,374
was unpaid as of December 31, 1997.    In addition, an Affiliate of the Advisor
serves as dealer manager of each  of  the  Offerings and is entitled to receive
selling commissions,  a  marketing  contribution  and  a  due diligence expense
allowance fee from the Company in connection  with each of the Offerings.  Such
amounts incurred were $33,128,582  and  $23,124,939  as  of  March 31, 1998 and
December 31, 1997, respectively, of  which  $794,033 and $519,914 was unpaid as
of  March  31,  1998  and  December  31,  1997,  respectively.    Approximately
$28,314,000 and $19,581,000 of these  commissions  had been passed through from
the Affiliate to unaffiliated  soliciting  broker/dealers  as of March 31, 1998
and December 31, 1997, respectively.

                                  (unaudited)


As of March 31, 1998, the  Company had incurred $38,893,902 of organization and
offering costs to Affiliates and non-affiliates.   Pursuant to the terms of the
offering, the Advisor is required  to  pay organizational and offering expenses
(excluding sales commissions, the marketing  contribution and the due diligence
expense allowance fee) in excess of 5.5%  of the gross proceeds of the Offering
(the "Gross  Offering  Proceeds")  or  all  organization  and offering expenses
(including selling commissions)  which  together  exceed  15% of gross offering
proceeds.  Through the  completion  of  the  third Offering, organizational and
offering expenses did not  exceed  the  5.5%  or  15% limitations.  The Company
anticipates that these costs will  not exceed these limitations upon completion
of the  offerings,  however,  any  excess  amounts  will  be  reimbursed by the
Advisor.

The Advisor and its Affiliates  are  entitled to reimbursement for salaries and
expenses of  employees  of  the  Advisor  and  its  Affiliates  relating to the
administration of  the  Company.    Such  costs  are  included  in professional
services to Affiliates, general  and  administrative expenses to Affiliates and
acquisition costs expensed.

The Advisor has contributed $200,000 to the capital of the Company for which it
received 20,000 Shares.

The Advisor may receive an annual Advisor Asset Management Fee of not more than
1% of the Average Invested Assets, paid  quarterly.   For any year in which the
Company qualifies as a REIT, the  Advisor  must  reimburse the Company:  (i) to
the extent that the Advisor Asset  Management Fee plus Other Operating Expenses
paid during the  previous  calendar  year  exceed  2%  of the Company's Average
Invested Assets for the calendar year  or  25%  of the Company's Net Income for
that calendar year; and (ii) to  the extent that Stockholders have not received
an annual Distribution equal to or greater than the 8% Current Return.  For the
three months ended March 31,  1998,  the  Company has incurred $432,183 of such
fees, all of which remains unpaid at March 31, 1998.

An Affiliate of the Advisor is entitled to receive Property Management Fees for
management and  leasing  services.    The  Company  incurred  and paid Property
Management Fees of $494,528 and $172,537  for  the three months ended March 31,
1998 and 1997, respectively, all of which has been paid.

(3) Stock Option and Dealer Warrant Plan

The Company adopted an  Independent  Director  Stock  Option Plan which granted
each Independent Director an option to acquire 3,000 Shares as of the date they
become a Director and  an  additional  500  Shares  on  the date of each annual
stockholders' meeting  commencing  with  the  annual  meeting  in  1995  if the
Independent Director is a member of  the  Board  on such date.  The options for
the initial 3,000 Shares granted shall  be exercisable as follows: 1,000 Shares
on the date  of  grant  and  1,000  Shares  on  each  of  the  first and second
anniversaries of the date of grant.   The succeeding options are exercisable on
the second anniversary of the date of grant.  As of March 31, 1998, options for
1,000 Shares have been exercised for $9.05 per Share.

In addition to  sales  commissions,  Soliciting  Dealers  will also receive one
Soliciting Dealer Warrant for  each  40  Shares  sold by such Soliciting Dealer
during the offerings, subject to state and federal securities laws.  The holder
of a Soliciting Dealer Warrant will be  entitled to purchase one Share from the
Company at a price of $13.20  during  the period commencing with the first date
upon which the Soliciting Dealer Warrants are issued and ending on the Exercise
Period.  Notwithstanding the  foregoing  no  Soliciting  Dealer Warrant will be
exercisable until one year from the  date  of  issuance.  As of March 31, 1998,
none of these warrants were exercised.

(4) Investment Properties (continued)

(A) The initial cost to the Company,  represents the original purchase price of
    the property, including amounts  incurred  subsequent to acquisition, which
    were contemplated at the time the property was acquired.

(B) Adjustments  to  basis  includes  additions  to  investment  properties and
    payments received  under  master  lease  agreements.    As  part of several
    purchases, the Company will receive  rent  under master lease agreements on
    the spaces currently vacant for  periods  ranging  from one to two years or
    until the spaces  are  leased.    Generally  Accepted Accounting Principles
    ("GAAP") require that as these payments are received, they be recorded as a
    reduction in the purchase  price  of  the  properties rather than as rental
    income.  The cumulative amount of such payments was $1,523,995 and $981,055
    as of March 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997, respectively. (Note 5)


(5) Operating Leases


As part of the purchases of several of the properties, the Company will receive
rent under master  lease  agreements  on  spaces  currently  vacant for periods
ranging from one to two years or  until the spaces are leased and tenants begin
paying rent.  GAAP requires  the  Company  to  reduce the purchase price of the
properties as these payments are  received,  rather than record the payments as
rental income.

Certain tenant leases contain provisions  providing for stepped rent increases.
GAAP requires the Company to record  rental  income for the period of occupancy
using the effective monthly rent,  which  is  the  average monthly rent for the
entire period of occupancy  during  the  term  of  the lease.  The accompanying
financial statements include increases  of  $289,037  and $99,411 for the three
months ended March 31,  1998  and  1997,  of  rental  income  for the period of
occupancy for which stepped rent increases apply and $1,075,653 and $786,616 in
related accounts  receivable  as  of  March  31,  1998  and  December 31, 1997,
respectively.  The Company anticipates  collecting these amounts over the terms
of the related leases as scheduled rent payments are made.

(a) All payments are interest only, with  the exception of the loans secured by
    the Walgreens, Regency Point and Aurora Commons properties.

(b) Payments on this mortgage  are  based  on  a  floating interest rate of 180
    basis points over the 30-day  LIBOR rate, which adjusts monthly, amortizing
    over 25 years.

(c) The Company received a credit for  interest expense on the debt at closing,
    which is included in restricted cash along  with an amount set aside by the
    Company for principal payments on the  debt.  Interest income earned on the
    restricted cash amounts, when  netted  with  interest  expense on the debt,
    results in an adjusted interest rate on the debt of approximately 8.2%.

connection with the construction of a  Staples  Office Supply store to be built
in Freeport, Illinois.  The construction  loan matures on October 15, 1998 and,
prior to maturity, requires the borrower  to make payments of interest only, on
amounts disbursed at a rate of  9.5%.    The Company made an initial advance of

                                  (unaudited)


The following unaudited Pro  Forma  Statement  of  Operations of the Company is
presented to effect the acquisitions of  the properties indicated in Note B and
Note C of the Notes to  the  Pro  Forma  Statement of Operations as though they
occurred the earlier of January 1,  1997  or the date operations commenced.  No
pro forma adjustments have been made  for  Oak Forest Commons and Downers Grove
Market as these centers were  completed  in  1998 and no significant operations
existed for the year ended December  31,  1997.   Construction has not begun on
Staples Office Supply Store  and  therefore,  there  were no operations for the
year ended December 31, 1997.  This unaudited Pro Forma Statement of Operations
should be read in conjunction  with  the December 31, 1997 Financial Statements
and the notes thereto as filed on Form 10-K. 

This unaudited Pro Forma Statement  of Operations is not necessarily indicative
of what the actual results  of  operations  would  have been for the year ended
December 31, 1997,  nor  does  it  purport  to  represent  the future financial
position of the  Company.    Unless  otherwise  defined, capitalized terms used
herein shall have the same meaning as in the Prospectus.

(A) The  1997  Historical  column   represents   the  historical  statement  of
    operations of the Company for  the  year  ended December 31, 1997, as filed
    with the SEC on Form 10-K.

(B) Total pro forma adjustments for  the  year  ended  December 31, 1997 are as
    though the  1997  acquisitions  of  the  following  properties occurred the
    earlier of January 1, 1997 or  the  date operations commenced (May 13, 1997
    for the Glendale Heights Dominick's).   All properties were purchased on an
    all cash basis except for  Maple  Park,  Aurora Commons, Lincoln Park Place
    and Rivertree Court.  Pro  forma  adjustments for interest expense on these
    properties were based on the following terms:

    Maple Park Shopping Center

    The Company funded the purchase using (i) the proceeds of a short-term loan
    maturing April 7, 1997 in  the  amount  of  $8 million from Inland Mortgage
    Investment Corporation ("IMIC"), an  affiliate  of the Company (the "Short-
    Term Loan"), and (ii) cash and cash equivalents.  The Short-Term Loan bears
    interest at a rate of 9.0% per annum and requires a loan fee of 1/4%.  

    Aurora Commons Shopping Center

    As part of the acquisition  of  Aurora Commons Shopping Center, the Company
    assumed the existing mortgage  loan,  maturing  December 31, 2001, with the
    balance funded with cash and cash  equivalents.  The loan bears interest at
    a rate of 9% per annum  with  monthly payments of principal and interest on
    the first day of each month.

    Lincoln Park Place Shopping Center

    The Company funded the purchase of Lincoln Park Place Shopping Center using
    the proceeds of a short-term loan  maturing  February 7, 1997 in the amount
    of $2,016,110  from  Inland  Mortgage  Investment  Corporation ("IMIC"), an
    affiliate of the Company (the "Short-Term  Loan").  The Company did not pay
    any fees in connection with the  Short-Term Loan, which bears interest at a
    rate of 9% per annum.

    existing first mortgage loan, maturing  January  1, 1999, with a balance of
    $15,700,000.  The loan requires interest only monthly payments at a rate of
    10.03% per annum.

    Fashion Square

    As part of  the  acquisition  of  Fashion  Square,  the Company assumed the
    existing bond financing, in the  remaining principal balance of $6,200,000.

    Rule 3-14 of the Securities and  Exchange Commission Regulation S-X and for
    inclusion in the Registration Statement on  Form S-11 of Inland Real Estate
    Corporation and is not  intended  to  be  a complete presentation of Bergen
    Plaza's revenues and expenses.  The Historical Summary has been prepared on
    the accrual basis of accounting and  requires management of Bergen Plaza to
    make estimates and  assumptions  that  affect  the  reported amounts of the
    revenues and expenses  during  the  reporting  period.   Actual results may
    differ from those estimates.

3.  Gross Income

    Bergen Plaza leases retail  space  under  various lease agreements with its
    tenants.  All leases are  accounted  for  as  operating leases.  The leases
    include provisions under which Bergen  Plaza is reimbursed for common area,
    real estate, and insurance costs.    Operating expenses and real estate tax
    recoveries reflected in  the  Historical  Summary  include amounts for 1997
    expenses for which the tenants have not yet been billed.

    Base rentals are reported  as  income  over  the  lease term as they become
    receivable under the lease provisions.    However, when rentals vary from a
    straight-line basis due to  short-term  rent abatements or escalating rents
    during the lease term, the  income  is recognized based on effective rental
    rates.  Related adjustments increased base  rental income by $2,193 for the
    year ended December 31, 1997.

4.  Direct Operating Expenses

    Direct  operating  expenses  include  only   those  costs  expected  to  be
    comparable to the proposed future  operations  of Bergen Plaza.  Costs such
    as mortgage interest, depreciation,  amortization and professional fees are
    excluded from the Historical Summary.

    Bergen Plaza has not received its final real estate tax bill for 1997. Real
    estate tax expense is estimated based  upon bills for 1996.  The difference
    between the estimate and  the  final  tax  bill  is  not expected to have a
    material impact on the Historical Summary.

    Bergen Plaza is managed  pursuant  to  the  terms of a management agreement
    with the Seller for an annual  fee  of  5%  of revenues (as defined) and an
    administrative  fee  equal  to  5%  of  operating  expense  recoveries  (as
    defined).  Subsequent to the  sale  of  Bergen  Plaza (note 1), the current
    management agreement will cease.    Any  new management agreement may cause
    future  management  fees  to  differ  from  the  amounts  reflected  in the
    Historical Summary.

                               High Point Centre
   Notes to Historical Summary of Gross Income and Direct Operating Expenses
                         Year ended December 31, 1997


1.  Business

    High Point  Centre  is  located  in  Madison,  Wisconsin.    It consists of
    approximately 86,000 square feet of gross leasable area and was 100% leased
    and occupied at December 31, 1997.   Approximately 10% of High Point Centre
    is leased to  one  tenant  representing  approximately  13% of total rental
    income.  Inland Real  Estate  Corporation  has  signed  a sale and purchase
    agreement for the purchase of High  Point Centre from an unaffiliated third
    party (Seller). 

2.  Basis of Presentation

    The Historical  Summary  of  Gross  Income  and  Direct  Operating Expenses
    (Historical Summary) has been  prepared  for  the purpose of complying with
    Rule 3-14 of the Securities and  Exchange Commission Regulation S-X and for
    inclusion in the Registration Statement on  Form S-11 of Inland Real Estate
    Corporation and is not intended to be a complete presentation of High Point
    Centre's revenues and expenses.   The  Historical Summary has been prepared
    on the accrual basis of  accounting  and  requires management of High Point
    Centre to make estimates and  assumptions  that affect the reported amounts
    of the revenues and expenses  during  the reporting period.  Actual results
    may differ from those estimates.

3.  Gross Income

    High Point Centre leases retail  space  under various lease agreements with
    its tenants.  All leases are accounted for as operating leases.  The leases
    include provisions under which High  Point  Centre is reimbursed for common
    area, real estate, and insurance costs.  Operating expenses and real estate
    tax recoveries reflected in the Historical Summary include amounts for 1997
    expenses for which the tenants have not yet been billed.

    Base rentals are reported  as  income  over  the  lease term as they become
    receivable under the lease provisions.    However, when rentals vary from a
    straight-line basis due to  short-term  rent abatements or escalating rents
    during the lease term, the  income  is recognized based on effective rental
    rates.  Related adjustments increased base rental income by $48,627 for the
    year ended December 31, 1997.

                                            ===========

4.  Direct Operating Expenses

    Direct  operating  expenses  include  only   those  costs  expected  to  be
    comparable to the proposed future  operations  of High Point Centre.  Costs
    such as mortgage interest, depreciation, amortization and professional fees
    are excluded from the Historical Summary.

    High Point Centre is managed by an  affiliate of the seller pursuant to the
    terms of a management agreement for  an  annual fee of $12,000.  Subsequent
    to the sale of High Point Centre (note 1), the current management agreement
    will cease.  Any new management  agreement may cause future management fees
    to differ from the amounts reflected in the Historical Summary.
