                      AMENDMENT NO.1 TO SCHEDULE 13G

     This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13G (this "Amendment") is being filed
on behalf of Value Partners, Ltd., a Texas limited partnership ("Value
Partners"), Ewing & Partners, a Texas general partnership ("Ewing &
Partners"), and Timothy G. Ewing, the managing general partner of Ewing &
Partners, as an amendment to the initial statement on Schedule 13G relating
to shares of common stock, par value $.0001 per share (the "Common Stock"),
of Wilshire Real Estate Investment Trust Inc. (the "Company") as filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 11, 1998 (the "Initial
Statement").  This Amendment is being filed to reflect the change in
address of Value Partners, and the change in beneficial ownership due to
the increase in the number of shares of Common Stock directly owned and
held by Value Partners, Ltd.

ITEM 2(B)  ADDRESS OF PRINCIPAL BUSINESS OFFICE, OR IF NONE,
           RESIDENCE:

           Item 2(b) of the Initial Statement is hereby amended and
           restated in its entirety to read as follows:

           The principal business office of Value Partners, Ewing &
           Partners and Mr. Ewing is Suite 808, 4514 Cole
           Avenue, Dallas, Texas 75205.

ITEM 4     OWNERSHIP:

           Item 4 of the Initial Statement is hereby amended and restated
           in its entirety to read as follows:

           See Items 5 through 11 on page 2 for Value Partners, page 3 for
           Ewing & Partners and page 4 for Mr. Ewing.
           
           Value Partners has the sole power to vote and dispose of the
           1,000,000 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by it.
           Value Partners does not share the power to vote or to direct
           the vote of, or the power to dispose or to direct the
           disposition of, the Common Stock owned by it. However, Ewing &
           Partners, as general partner of Value Partners, may be deemed,
           for purposes of determining beneficial ownership pursuant to
           Rule 13d-3, to have the shared power with Value Partners to
           vote or direct the vote of, and the shared power with Value
           Partners to dispose or direct the disposition of, the 1,000,000
           shares of Common Stock owned by Value Partners. Mr. Ewing, as
           managing general partner of Ewing & Partners, may be deemed,
           for purposes of determining beneficial ownership pursuant to
           Rule 13d-3, to have the shared power with Value Partners to
           vote or direct the vote of, and the shared power with Value
           Partners to dispose or direct the disposition of, the 1,000,000
           shares of Common Stock owned by Value Partners.

                                 SIGNATURE

          After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and
belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true,
complete and correct.
