                              PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

     The following summary highlights information contained in this prospectus.
You should read this entire prospectus carefully, including the "Risk Factors"
section, the financial statements and the notes to the financial statements,
before investing in the common stock.

The Company         We operate and intend to continue to operate in a manner so
                    that we qualify as a real estate investment trust (a
                    "REIT"). Through our subsidiaries, we own a variety of
                    income-producing properties, including 21 office properties
                    and four self-storage facilities.

Business Strategy   We are pursuing an acquisition and development strategy to
                    become a property-type specific REIT focusing on office
                    buildings with average tenant size of approximately 3,000
                    square feet in selected markets. We believe that the office
                    segment is the least management intensive category of real
                    estate where effective management can increase our return on
                    investment. Smaller average tenant size buildings serve more
                    than 97% of the potential tenants in the United States'
                    office market, but these buildings have historically been
                    shunned by large institutional investors due to perceived
                    management intensity. It is here where our management team
                    has developed an expertise for adding value and where we are
                    focused to increase total returns to our stockholders.

                    We believe that the demand for office space will continue to
                    grow as the economy continues its transition from
                    manufacturing to service businesses. Within the growing
                    office sector, we believe a focus on properties serving
                    small average tenant sizes is appropriate due to the large
                    number of small firms.

                    We will limit our acquisitions to a select number of
                    metropolitan markets where we can build meaningful
                    multi-property and development portfolios over the short and
                    medium term. Our initial target cities for acquisitions or
                    development using the proceeds of this offering include
                    Phoenix, Denver and Indianapolis. Other cities where we hope
                    to build a portfolio include Salt Lake City, San Francisco,
                    San Diego, Minneapolis, San Antonio, Dallas and Houston. We
                    believe our target cities have the best growth prospects for
                    our selected tenant base within a two-hour travel radius by
                    air from our corporate headquarters in Denver, Colorado.

Management          All properties are managed under an agreement with Sheridan
                    Realty Advisors, LLC, which also manages our day-to-day
                    operations and assists and advises our Board of Directors on
                    real estate acquisitions and investment opportunities.
                    Sheridan Realty Advisors receives an administrative fee and
                    a property management and accounting fee for these services.
                    Our agreement with Sheridan Realty Advisors provides that
                    the costs to be paid for these services to Sheridan Realty
                    Advisors in fiscal year 2000 will be no greater than the
                    costs incurred by us for providing these services ourselves
                    or in obtaining them from outside sources in fiscal year
                    1999. In addition, Sheridan Realty Advisors received
                    incentive compensation in the form of five-year warrants to
                    purchase our common stock at $5 per share and an advisory
                    fee based on new real property acquisitions. These warrants
                    were subject to stockholder approval, which was received at
                    our Annual Meeting of stockholders on June 6, 2000.

Sale of Broadway    On December 13, 1999, we completed the sale of our
Property            industrial office and showroom building in Denver, Colorado
                    for $2.1 million, resulting in a gain on the sale of the
                    property of $720,000. We reinvested the proceeds from this
                    transaction in a tax-deferred exchange under Section 1031 of
                    the Internal Revenue Code during 2000.


Purchase of         On August 12, 1999, we completed the acquisition of three
Keystone            office buildings, known as the Keystone Buildings, located
Buildings           in suburban Indianapolis, Indiana. The Keystone Buildings
                    contain a total of 95,836 square feet of rentable space. The
                    total purchase price for the Keystone Buildings was
                    $7,944,000, which we paid by assuming $5,255,000 of existing
                    debt and $116,400 of related escrow balances on the
                    properties and issuing 541,593 shares of our common stock at
                    the rate of $4.75 per share. We will issue additional shares
                    if the weighted average trading price of our common stock is
                    not at least $4.75 for the 15 trading days preceding the
                    first anniversary of the acquisition of the Keystone
                    Buildings. In conjunction with the assumption of the debt,
                    we also agreed to indemnify the original guarantors of
                    certain environmental indemnities and other obligations in
                    connection with this debt.

Purchase of         On May 25, 2000, we completed the acquisition of an office
Panorama Falls      building known as Panorama Falls located in southeast
Building            Denver, Colorado. The Panorama building contains an
                    aggregate of 61,963 square feet. The aggregate
                    purchase price for the Panorama building was $5,900,000,
                    which was paid by using approximately $516,000 in proceeds
                    from the sale in December 1999 of our industrial and
                    showroom building in Denver, approximately $300,000 from our
                    line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., approximately
                    $200,000 from the proceeds of a temporary loan from the
                    Alexander S. Hewitt Trust and the balance of approximately
                    $4,919,800 from the proceeds of a loan from KeyBank National
                    Association. The acquisition was structured as a
                    tax-deferred exchange of our industrial and showroom
                    building under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code.
                    Proceeds from this offering will be used to repay the loan
                    from the Alexander S. Hewitt Trust and to pay down the line
                    of credit. For additional information concerning the
                    Panorama building, see the "Business And Properties" section
                    of this prospectus. For additional information concerning
                    the loan from the Alexander S. Hewitt Trust, see the

                    Assuming we receive gross proceeds of $1 million, net
                    proceeds may be used to pay unpaid expenses of this
                    offering, to pay down our line of credit, to pay a loan from
                    a related party used as a portion of the purchase price for
                    our Panorama Falls building, to repay another loan used as a
                    portion of the purchase price for an office building in
                    Arlington, Texas and for capital improvements to our
                    properties. Any additional funds received will be used for
                    these purposes and also may be used to increase working
                    capital and/or acquire or develop additional real estate
                    properties. We are targeting multi-tenant office buildings

                                  RISK FACTORS

     The purchase of units involves a high degree of risk. Before purchasing
units, you should read this entire prospectus and consider the following factors
concerning the Company in addition to the other information in this prospectus.

We face a strong competitive market.

     The commercial real estate industry is highly competitive, and we compete
with substantially larger companies, including substantially larger REITs, for
the acquisition, development and operation of properties. Some of these
companies are national or regional operators with far greater resources than
ours. The presence of these competitors may be a significant impediment to the
continuation and development of our business.

Our debt level may have a negative impact on our income and asset value.

     We have incurred indebtedness in connection with the acquisition of our
properties and we may incur new indebtedness in the future in connection with
our acquisition, development and operating activities. As a result of our use of
debt, we will be subject to the risks normally associated with debt financing.
The required payments on mortgages and on other indebtedness are not reduced if
the economic performance of any property declines. If any such decline occurs,
our ability to make debt service payments would be adversely affected. If a
property is mortgaged to secure payment of indebtedness and we are unable to
meet mortgage payments, that property could be transferred to the mortgagee with
a consequent loss of income and asset value.

     Our debt to total capitalization ratio exceeds those normally carried by
our competitors and REITs in general. While we believe that our level of
leverage is normal for a direct private or institutional investor, our higher
leverage levels may make it difficult to obtain any additional financing based
on our current portfolio. Our high leverage levels may also adversely affect the
market value of our stock if we are perceived as more risky than our peers.

We may not pay dividends regularly.

     Our ability to pay dividends in the future is dependent on our ability to
operate profitably and to generate cash from our operations. Although we have
done so in the past, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to pay dividends
on a regular quarterly basis in the future.

We may incur tax liabilities as a result of failing to qualify as a REIT.

     We believe that we have been organized and operated so as to qualify as a
REIT under the Internal Revenue Code. However, we cannot assure that we will
continue to be qualified as a REIT. Qualification as a REIT involves the
application of highly technical and complex Internal Revenue Code provisions for
which there are only limited judicial or administrative interpretations. There
are no controlling authorities that deal specifically with many tax issues
affecting a REIT that operates self-storage facilities. The determination of
various factual matters and circumstances not entirely within our control may
affect our ability to qualify as a REIT. In addition, we cannot predict that
legislation, new regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions
will not have a substantial adverse effect with respect to the qualification as
a REIT or the federal income tax consequences of that qualification.

     If we are unable to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we would not be
allowed a deduction for distributions to shareholders in computing our taxable
income and would be subject to federal income tax (including any applicable
alternative minimum tax) on our taxable income at regular corporate rates.
Unless entitled to relief under certain Internal Revenue Code provisions, we

                                      5

<PAGE>


also would be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years
following the year during which REIT qualification was lost. As a result, the
funds available for distribution to the shareholders would be reduced for each
of the years involved. In addition, we may incur substantial indebtedness or may
liquidate substantial investments in order to pay the resulting federal income
tax liabilities if differences in timing between the receipt of income and
payment of expenses and the inclusion of those amounts in arriving at our
taxable income. We may have to borrow in order to make the distributions to our
shareholders that are necessary to satisfy the distribution requirements
applicable to REITs. Although we currently intend to operate in a manner
designed to qualify as a REIT, it is possible that future economic, market,
legal, tax or other considerations may cause us to revoke the REIT election.

We may have to make distributions to shareholders.

     In order to qualify as a REIT, we generally will be required each year to
distribute to our shareholders at least 95% of our REIT taxable income
(excluding any net capital gains). In addition, we will be subject to a 4%
nondeductible excise tax on the amount, if any, by which certain distributions
paid by us with respect to any calendar year are less than the sum of 85% of our
ordinary income plus 95% of our capital gain net income for that year.

     We intend to make distributions to our shareholders to comply with the 95%
distribution requirement and to avoid the nondeductible excise tax. We may have
to borrow funds on a short-term basis to meet the 95% distribution requirement
and to avoid the nondeductible excise tax if differences in timing between
taxable income and cash available for distribution exist.

Some of our buildings are subject to special income tax considerations.

     If we sell our self-storage facilities and our Giltedge Office Building
less than ten years after their acquisition, we will be required to pay tax at
the highest applicable corporate rates on the difference between their fair
market value and their adjusted bases at the time of our REIT election. By
utilizing a property exchange under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code,
we may be able to defer the recognition of gain until after the 10-year period
expires in 2006 so that we are not subject to the highest applicable corporate
rates. If we are subject to the highest corporate rate, the amount of this tax
could be substantial and would be significantly more than if we would be
permitted to use our own adjusted basis. There is a risk that we would not have
sufficient cash available to pay the additional taxes resulting from the lower
adjusted bases for these properties. As long as these higher tax liabilities
apply, we currently do not intend to sell these properties unless other
economic, financial and business consequences of the sale would offset the
higher tax liabilities and lead us to believe it would be in our best interests
to effect such a sale. The factors we would consider at the time of selling
these properties include the price we are able to receive and our ability to
defer the taxes through a Section 1031 exchange.

Real estate investments are inherently risky.

     Real estate investments are subject to varying degrees of risk. The yields
available from equity investments in real estate depend on the amount of income
and capital appreciation generated by the properties held by the entity in which
the investment is made. If we acquire properties and they do not generate
sufficient operating cash flow to meet operating expenses, including debt
service, capital expenditures and tenant improvements, our income and ability to
pay dividends to our stockholders will be adversely affected. Income from
properties may be adversely affected by the general economic climate, local
conditions, the attractiveness of properties to tenants, zoning or other
regulatory restrictions, competition from other available storage facilities and
office buildings, and our inability to control certain operating costs,
including site maintenance, insurance premiums and real estate taxes. Income
from properties and real estate values also are affected by such factors as
applicable laws, including tax laws, interest rate levels and the availability
of financing.

Real estate development is inherently risky.

     Real estate development is subject to other risks, including the following:

     o    the risks of difficult and complicated construction projects,
     o    the risks related to the use of contractors and subcontractors to
          perform all construction activities,
     o    the risk of development delays, unanticipated increases in
          construction costs, environmental issues and regulatory approvals; and
     o    financial risks relating to financing and construction loan
          difficulties.

Additionally, the time frame required for development, construction and lease-up
of these properties means that we may have to wait a few years for a significant
cash return. Because we are required to make cash distributions to investors, if
the cash flow from operations or refinancing is not sufficient, we may be forced
to borrow to fund such distributions.

There is no assurance of tenant occupancy.

     Although the properties currently have favorable occupancy rates, we cannot
predict that current tenants will renew their leases upon the expiration of
their terms. Alternatively, we cannot predict that current tenants will not
attempt to terminate their leases prior to the expiration of their current
terms. If this occurs, we may not be able to locate a qualified replacement
tenant and, as a result, we would lose a source of revenue while remaining
responsible for the payment of our obligations. Additionally, new properties we
may acquire with the proceeds of this Offering may not be fully leased and the
cash flow from existing operations may be insufficient to pay the operating
expenses and debt service associated with that property until the property is
fully leased.

There is limited liquidity in our real estate investments.

     Real estate investments are relatively illiquid. Our ability to vary our
portfolio in response to changes in economic and other conditions will be
limited. We cannot ascertain whether we will be able to dispose of an investment
when we find disposition advantageous or necessary or that the sale price of any
disposition will recoup or exceed the amount of our investment.

There is a limited market for the shares of common stock and warrants.

     Historically, there has been an extremely limited public market for our
common stock and the warrants issued in connection with our initial public
offering in 1996. We cannot guarantee that the market will be sustained or will
expand. Because the terms of the warrants included in the units are different
from the terms of the warrants already outstanding, no market may develop for
the warrants included in the units we currently are offering. The prices of the
common stock and our publicly traded warrants are highly volatile. Due to the
limited trading volume and small capitalization of our common stock and
warrants, many investors may not be interested in owning our securities because
of the higher risks associated with limited trading volume and small market
capitalization such as the inability to sell a substantial block of stock at one
time without driving down prices. This could have an adverse effect on the
market for our common stock as well as the possibility of developing and
sustaining a market for the warrants included in the units. In addition, there
is no assurance that an investor will be in a position to borrow funds using our
securities as collateral because lenders may be unwilling to accept the pledge
of these securities because of the limited market.

     Our equity market capitalization places us at the extreme low end of market
capitalization among all REITs. As a result of our small market cap,
substantially all of our investors are retail investors. Institutional investors
who have traditionally provided support for most REIT shares represent an
insignificant percentage of our total ownership. This limits the ability for
investors to acquire substantial blocks of our stock. This also places a
near-term cap on capital appreciation for our shares if significant stockholders
decide to sell.

We have  arbitrarily  determined  the  offering  price of the units and exercise
price of warrants included in the units.

     The offering price for the units and the exercise price were based upon our
assessment of recent trading prices for the common stock, our history and
prospects, our management's background, and current conditions in the securities
markets. There is no relationship between the offering price or the exercise
price and our assets, book value, net worth or any other economic or recognized
criteria of value.

Our  uninsured  and  underinsured  losses  could  result  in  loss of  value  of
properties.

     We maintain comprehensive insurance on each of the properties, including
liability, fire and extended coverage. We believe this coverage is of the type
and amount customarily obtained for or by an owner on real property assets. We
will obtain similar insurance coverage on subsequently acquired properties.
However, there are certain types of losses, generally of a catastrophic nature,
such as earthquakes and floods, that may be uninsurable or not economically
insurable, as to which our facilities are at risk in their particular locales.
Our management will use its discretion in determining amounts, coverage limits
and deductibility provisions of insurance, with a view to requiring appropriate
insurance on our investments at a reasonable cost and on suitable terms. This
may result in insurance coverage that in the event of a substantial loss would
not be sufficient to pay the full current market value or current replacement
cost of our lost investment. Inflation, changes in codes and ordinances,
environmental considerations, and other factors also might make it not feasible
to use insurance proceeds to replace a facility after it has been damaged or
destroyed.

We may suffer environmental liabilities.

     Under various environmental laws, a current or previous owner or operator
of real property may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of
hazardous or toxic substances including, without limitation, asbestos-containing
materials that are located on or under the property. These laws often impose

                                       8

<PAGE>


liability whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the
presence of those substances. In connection with our ownership and operation of
properties, we may be liable for these costs. Also, our ability to arrange for
financing secured by that real property may be adversely affected because of the
presence of hazardous or toxic substances or the failure to properly remediate
any contamination.

Non-compliance with the Americans With Disabilities Act could result in fines.

     Under the ADA, all public accommodations are required to meet certain
federal requirements related to physical access and use by disabled persons.
While we believe that our properties comply in all material respects with these
physical requirements (or would be eligible for applicable exemptions from
material requirements because of adaptive assistance provided), a determination
that we are not in compliance with the ADA could result in imposition of fines
or an award of damages to private litigants. If we were required to make
modifications to comply with the ADA, our ability to make expected distributions
to our stockholders could be adversely affected; however, we believe that this
effect would be minimal.

                                 USE OF PROCEEDS

     Although there no longer is a minimum offering amount, we believe we will
be able to raise at least $1 million in gross proceeds, although this may not be
the case. Assuming we receive gross proceeds of $1 million, the net proceeds
after the payment of expenses of this offering may be used to pay down a portion
of our line of credit, to repay a loan from a related party used as a portion of
the purchase price for our Panorama Falls building, to repay a loan used as a
portion of the purchase price for an office building in Arlington, Texas and for
capital improvements to our properties. Any additional funds received will be
used to increase working capital and/or acquire or develop additional real
estate properties. We are targeting multi-tenant office buildings with smaller
average tenant size located in our target growth cities. We may purchase these
properties for cash or a combination of cash, debt and stock. We may obtain
additional financing from a bank or other third party to purchase, rehabilitate
or develop some or all of these properties and may refinance the properties at
any time. There is no assurance that we will be able to locate appropriate
properties or to obtain those properties on terms we deem to be in our best
interests.

                           PRICE RANGE OF COMMON STOCK

     Our common stock has traded on the American Stock Exchange under the symbol

                                 DIVIDEND POLICY

     We paid a dividend of $.12 per share in the first quarter of 2000 and in
each quarter of 1999. This represents an annualized rate of $.48 per share. We
also declared a dividend of $.12 per share payable in July 2000. We anticipate
paying regularly quarterly dividends in the future.

                             BUSINESS AND PROPERTIES

Overview

     AmeriVest Properties Inc. was incorporated in 1993 in the State of Delaware
and was reincorporated in 1999 in the State of Maryland. We operate and intend
to continue to operate in a manner so that we qualify as a real estate
investment trust ("REIT"). Through our subsidiaries, we own a variety of
income-producing properties, including 20 office properties and four
self-storage facilities.

     All properties are managed under an agreement with Sheridan Realty Advisors
which also manages our day-to-day operations and assists and advises our Board
of Directors on real estate acquisitions and investment opportunities. Sheridan
Realty Advisors receives an administrative fee and a property management and
accounting fee for these services. Our agreement with Sheridan Realty Advisors
provides that the costs to be paid for these services to Sheridan Realty
Advisors in fiscal year 2000 will be no greater than the costs incurred by us
for providing these services ourselves or in obtaining them from outside sources
in fiscal year 1999. In addition, Sheridan Realty Advisors will receive
incentive compensation in the form of five-year warrants to purchase our common
stock at $5 per share and an advisory fee based on new real property
acquisitions. Issuance of the incentive warrants is subject to stockholder
approval, which will be requested at our next Annual Meeting of stockholders.

     Since 1999, we have refocused our efforts on becoming the only office REIT
to specialize on multi-tenant office buildings with an average tenant size of
between 2,500 and 3,000 square feet in selected markets. Since 1990, the
principals of Sheridan have operated almost exclusively in this property type
and we believe focusing our efforts on these properties will generate better
returns to our stockholders than investing in office buildings without this
focus.

                                       11

     In November 1996, we sold an aggregate of 1,098,870 shares of common stock
and 549,435 common stock purchase warrants in our initial public offering. The
aggregate gross proceeds from the offering were approximately $5.5 million and
the net proceeds to us were approximately $4.5 million. These warrants have
different terms than the warrants included in the units offered by this
prospectus. See "Description of Securities" below.

     On December 13, 1999, we sold our industrial office and showroom building
in Denver, Colorado for $2.1 million, resulting in a gain on the sale of the
property of $720,000. We reinvested the proceeds from this transaction
in a tax-deferred exchange under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code
on May 25, 2000.

     On August 12, 1999, we completed the acquisition of three office buildings,
known as the Keystone Buildings, located in suburban Indianapolis, Indiana. The
Keystone Buildings contain a total of 95,836 square feet of rentable space. The
total purchase price for the Keystone Buildings was $7,944,000, which we paid by
assuming approximately $5,255,000 of existing debt and $116,400 of related
escrow balances on the properties and issuing 541,593 shares of our common stock
at the rate of $4.75 per share. We are required to issue additional shares if
the weighted average trading price for our common stock is not at least $4.75
per share for the 15 trading days preceding the first anniversary of the
acquisition of the Keystone Buildings. In conjunction with the assumption of the
debt, we also agreed to indemnify the original guarantors of this debt if we
fail to repay it.

     On May 25, 2000, we completed the acquisition of an office building known
as Panorama Falls located in southeast Denver, Colorado. The Panorama Falls
building contains an aggregate of approximately 61,963 square feet. The
aggregate purchase price for the Panorama Falls building was $5,900,000, which
was paid by using approximately $516,000 in proceeds from the sale in December
1999 of our industrial and showroom building in Denver, approximately $300,000
from our line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., approximately $200,000 from
the proceeds of a temporary loan from the Alexander S. Hewitt Trust and the
balance of approximately $4,919,800 from the proceeds of a loan from KeyBank
National Association. The acquisition was structured as a tax-deferred exchange
of our industrial and showroom building under Section 1031 of the Internal
Revenue Code. Proceeds from this offering will be used to repay the loan from
the Alexander S. Hewitt Trust and to pay down the line of credit. For additional
information, see "--Purchase Of Panorama Property", below.

     Our headquarters are located at 1800 Glenarm Place, Suite 500, Denver,
Colorado 80202, telephone number (303) 297-1800.

Purchase Of Panorama Property

     On May 25, 2000, we completed the acquisition of six acres of land in
Arapahoe County, Colorado containing a three-story office building with
approximately 60,000 square feet. The site improvements include parking for
approximately 277 cars, exterior lighting and landscaping and a small waterfall
and pond at the main entrance. The building was constructed in 1983 and contains
fully built-out office space, common areas with a building conference room and a
mechanical basement area which contains the air conditioning and heating system
for the building. The aggregate purchase price of $5,900,000 was paid by using
approximately $516,000 in proceeds from the sale in December 1999 of our
industrial and showroom building in Denver, approximately $300,000 from our line
of credit with Wells Fargo Bank West, N.A., approximately $200,000 from the
proceeds of a temporary loan from the Alexander S. Hewitt Trust and the balance
of approximately $4,919,800 from the proceeds of a loan from KeyBank National
Association. The acquisition was structured as a tax-deferred exchange of our
industrial and showroom building under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue
Code. Proceeds from this offering will be used to repay the loan from the
Alexander S. Hewitt Trust and to pay down the line of credit.

     The Panorama property was purchased from Jones Panorama Properties, Inc., a
Colorado corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Comcast Corp. The purchase
price was determined through negotiations between us and the seller.

     As required pursuant to the terms of the Purchase And Sale Agreement,
Comcast has leased approximately 10,080 square feet in the Panorama Building
through May 24, 2002. The remainder of the Panorama building (approximately
51,883 square feet) has been leased to Rhythms Net Connections Inc. through
September 30, 2008, with Rhythms assuming the additional space currently leased
to Comcast upon expiration of the Comcast lease.

                                       12

     The Panorama building is managed by Sheridan Realty Advisors, LLC under the
terms of the Advisory Agreement between us and Sheridan Realty Advisors dated
January 1, 2000. See below, "Transactions Between The Company And Related
Parties".

     The KeyBank loan bears interest at the LIBOR rate plus 2.20% (9.2625% at
June 8, 2000), is due in full on June 1, 2002 and is secured by a first mortgage
on the Panorama building. The Line of Credit bears interest at the Wells Fargo
prime rate plus 1% (10.5% at June 8, 2000), matures in May 2001 and is secured
by a second mortgage on our Arvada self storage facility. The Hewitt Trust loan
accrues interest at the prime rate, is due on demand after one year or five days
after closing of this public offering of Units of common stock and warrants with
proceeds to us of at least $2 million and is unsecured. We have the right to
prepay this loan at any time without penalty and intend to do so with the
proceeds of this offering even if those proceeds are less than $2 million.
Alexander S. Hewitt is a shareholder and officer of the Company, an owner and
officer of Sheridan and a trustee and beneficiary of the Alexander S. Hewitt
Trust.

     Since 1993, this building has been used as a corporate office by its
current owner who will lease approximately 10,000 square feet for two years from
the closing date. The building has been 100% occupied as a corporate office
until now. The Panorama Falls building is 100% leased to two tenants.

     The property is located in a suburban business park where there is
substantial competition from existing buildings, many of which are newer than
the Panorama Falls property. Carr America, a large office building owner, owns
several properties nearby and will compete directly with the subject property.
Sheridan Plaza at Inverness, LLC, an affiliate of Sheridan Realty Advisors, our
advisor, owns two Class A office buildings aggregating 118,000 square feet that
are located within three miles of Panorama Falls. Sheridan Plaza is 100% leased
so we do not believe it is presently competitive with Panorama Falls.

     We intend to make limited capital improvements to the Panorama Falls
property, including refurbishment of the exterior, construction of a new parking
lot and landscaping improvements. We intend to hold the property for income
purposes.

     There is a vacant building pad on the property where we are building an
additional parking lot as required by our lease with Rhythms Netconnections. We
may reconsider development on this pad upon termination or expiration of our
lease with Rhythms.

     The Keystone Office Buildings, the Giltedge Office Building and the
Panorama Falls Building are our only properties that have a book value in excess
of ten percent of the total book value of our assets. The following is a
description of these properties.

     Keystone Office Buildings. We acquired the Keystone Office Buildings in
Indianapolis, Indiana (the "Keystone Buildings") effective July 1, 1999. The
total purchase price was $7,944,000, which we paid by assuming approximately
$5,255,000 of existing debt and $116,400 of related escrow balances and issuing
541,593 shares of our common stock at a guaranteed price of $4.75 per share. The
Keystone Buildings consist of three two-story multi-tenant office buildings
located at 3021, 3077 and 3091 East 98th Street at the intersection of 98th
Street and North Keystone Avenue (US 431) in north central Indianapolis,
Indiana. These buildings comprise approximately 95,836 total rentable square
feet on approximately 9.041 acres of land with 336 surface parking spaces, plus
a 1,596 square foot free-standing maintenance building. The Keystone Buildings
were constructed and completed from 1984 to 1986, and Sheridan acquired the
Keystone Buildings in 1996.

     The Keystone Buildings are leased to various business entities for general
office space purposes. We do not have any plans for major capital improvements
for the Keystone Buildings and intend to continue to operate and hold them for
income purposes. The Keystone Buildings must compete with several mid-rise
office buildings in the area including buildings owned by Duke-Weeks Realty
Corp., a dominant owner in the Indianapolis market.

     The occupancy rate for the Keystone Buildings at December 31, 1999 was
99.2% There is one tenant occupying 10% or more of the rentable space of the
Keystone Buildings. The principal businesses of this tenant are insurance and
financial services. The following is a schedule as of January 1, 2000 of lease
expirations for the Keystone Buildings for the next ten years:

     Giltedge Office Building. The Giltedge Office Building is located at 4321
West College Avenue, Appleton, Wisconsin 54914 and was acquired in 1996 for
$2,778,846 in cash and assumption of mortgage debt. It is situated on
approximately 3.9 acres, and consists of approximately 55,072 total rentable
square feet. We have no plans for major capital improvements for the property
and intend to hold the property for income purposes. This property is subject to
the following competitive conditions: there are several mid-rise office
buildings in the area, but there is no dominant owner or building. The occupancy
rates for this property were: 93%, 94%, 96%, 99%, and 97%, in 1999, 1998, 1997,
1996 and 1995, respectively. There are two tenants occupying 10% or more of the

     Panorama Falls Building. The Panorama Falls Building is located at 9085
East Mineral Circle in Englewood, Colorado and was acquired in May, 2000. The
total purchase price was $5,900,000, which we paid by using approximately
$516,000 in proceeds from the sale of our industrial and showroom building in
Denver, approximately $300,000 from our line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank
West, N.A., approximately $200,000 from the proceeds of a temporary loan from
the Alexander S. Hewitt Trust and the balance of approximately $4,919,800 from
the proceeds of a loan from KeyBank National Association. The Panorama Falls
Building consists of a three-story office building with 61,963 square feet on
approximately six acres of land. The site improvements include parking for
approximately 277 cars, with a new parking lot accommodating and additional 130
cars to be built, exterior lighting and landscaping and a small waterfall and
pond at the main entrance. The building was constructed in 1983 and contains
fully built-out office space, common areas with a building conference room and a
mechanical basement area which contains the air conditioning, electrical and
heating systems for the building.

     The Panorama Falls Building is located in a suburban business park where
there is substantial competition from existing buildings, many of which are
newer than Panorama Falls. Carr America, a large office building owner, owns
several properties nearby and will compete directly with the subject property.
Sheridan Plaza at Inverness, LLC, an affiliate of Sheridan Realty Advisors, our
advisor, owns two Class A office buildings aggregating 118,000 square feet that
are located within three miles of Panorama Falls. Sheridan Plaza is 100% leased,
so we do not believe it is presently competitive with Panorama Falls

     The Panorama Building is 100% leased to two tenants: Comcast Corporation, a
cable television company, which leases 10,080 square feet through May 24, 2002
and Rhythms Netconnections, Inc., a telecommunications company, which leases
51,883 through May 24, 2002 and the entire building (61,963 SF) from May 25,
2002 through September 30, 2008. The following is a schedule as of January 1,
2000 of lease expirations for the Panorama Falls Building for the next ten
years:

Leases with Credit Tenants

     Approximately 46% of our rental income in 1999 came from tenants that we
consider to be better than average "credit tenants", including the State of
Texas, Bank of America, Ameritech and the FDIC.

     State of Texas Office Building Leases. Fourteen office buildings listed in
the above table and annotated with footnote (1) in the above table under
"Properties" are leased to the State of Texas with primary lease periods ranging
from six months to eight years. Most of the leases grant five multiple renewal
option periods of three years to five years at the election of the tenant. The
Hempstead, Amarillo, and Paris leases are the only leases that expire without
additional option periods, in August 2000, August 2003, and August 2002,
respectively.

     Although the leases with the State of Texas regarding the State of Texas
Office Buildings each include a specific termination date, the State of Texas
may terminate a lease at any time that the legislature of the State of Texas
fails to appropriate funds necessary to pay required rents, or federally-funded
programs housed in a State of Texas Office Building are discontinued. Prior to
terminating the lease, the State of Texas may assign another agency to fill or
partially fill the rented space, and the lease would be adjusted accordingly.
Despite this risk, we have no information that would lead us to believe that the
State of Texas is considering any such terminations.

Bank Building Leases

     Approximately 63% of each of the four buildings annotated with footnote (2)
in the above table under "Properties" are leased to Bank of America on a
long-term basis, with the primary lease through June 2012. The leases with the
Bank of America provide for automatic rent increases every three years at a
predetermined rate. They also provide for multiple renewal option periods for
Bank of America. The other leases in the Bank Buildings are with smaller tenants
and range from one year to three years in length.

Property Improvements

     We currently intend to spend approximately $500,000 for capital
improvements (including tenant finish) on the Properties during 2000. These
amounts, which are anticipated to be paid from a portion of the proceeds of this
offering, cash flow and/or working capital, are in addition to amounts that will
be expended for routine maintenance and repairs.

Insurance

     We believe that each of our properties is adequately covered by insurance.
For a discussion of the treatment of the depreciation of the properties in the
financial statements, see "Financial Statements--Notes To Financial Statements".

Competition

     The business of managing, leasing and operating office buildings is very
competitive and we compete for tenants with other office buildings, including
buildings owned by larger companies with more financial and other resources
available to them. The business of operating self-storage facilities also is
very competitive and we compete with many larger companies, including national
franchisers, with significantly more financial and other resources. We believe
that our niche focus on multi-tenant office buildings with smaller average
tenant sizes will improve our ability to compete. Competitive conditions
relating specifically to the Giltedge and Keystone Office Buildings are
described above under "--Properties".

Employees

     Including the seven employees of Sheridan that spend the majority of their
time on our business, we had 28 employees as of February 25, 2000. This includes
seven senior executives as well as 21 administrative, support, and property
management personnel.

Environmental Matters

     Under various federal, state and local laws and regulations, an owner or
operator of real property may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation
of certain hazardous or toxic substances on that property. These laws often
impose such liability regardless of whether the owner caused or knew of the
presence of hazardous or toxic substances and regardless of whether the storage
of those substances was in violation of a tenant's lease. Furthermore, the costs
of remediation or removal of those substances may be substantial, and the
presence of hazardous or toxic substances, or the failure to promptly remediate
those substances, may adversely affect the owner's ability to sell the property
or to borrow money using the property as collateral. In connection with the
ownership and operation of the properties, we may be potentially liable for such
costs.

     We have obtained an environmental assessment of each of the properties.
Based on those assessments, management believes that the properties are in
compliance in all material respects with all applicable federal, state and local
ordinances and regulations regarding hazardous or toxic substances and other
environmental matters or that, to the extent that a property is not in
compliance, we will not be subject to material liability. In addition, we have
not been, nor do we have knowledge that any of the previous owners of the
properties have been, notified by any governmental authority of any material
noncompliance, liability or claim relating to hazardous or toxic substances or
other environmental substances in connection with any of the properties.
Although we have obtained environmental assessments of the properties, and
although we are not aware of any notifications by any governmental authority of
any material noncompliance, it is possible that the our assessments do not
reveal all environmental liabilities or that there are material environmental
liabilities of which we are unaware.

Policies and Objectives With Respect to Certain Activities

     The following is a discussion of our policies with respect to investment,
financing and certain other activities. The polices with respect to these
activities have been determined by our Board Of Directors and, although the
Board currently does not contemplate any changes to these policies, the Board
may change these policies without a vote or other approval of stockholders.

                                       19

<PAGE>


     Acquisition, Development And Investment Policies.

     Our business and growth strategies are designed to maximize total return to
stockholders over the medium and long term with a niche property-type and
geographic focus. Our current policies contemplate the possibility of (1) direct
ownership of real estate properties, including ownership through wholly-owned
subsidiaries, focusing on office properties with average tenant sizes of between
2,500 and 3,000 square feet, (2) indirect participation in those types of
properties through investments in corporations, business trusts, general
partnerships, limited partnerships, joint ventures and other legal entities, and
(3) development and acquisition of unimproved property or the acquisition and
conversion of existing structures. At the present time, all of our existing and
contemplated investments in real estate properties are held through direct
ownership as described in (1) above. Generally, we intend to hold our properties
for the long term. However, we may sell properties when we believe the economic
benefits, including the income tax consequences, to the stockholders warrant
such action. In the case of the Self-Storage Facilities and the Giltedge Office
Building, there are special income tax considerations that may require us to
hold them for 10 years from the date of their purchase, unless we are able to
structure a tax-deferred exchange. Our long-term view is to focus on
multi-tenant office buildings in select cities and dispose of non-core assets
and property types when economically and operationally feasible. See "Risk
Factors - Some of our buildings are subject to special income tax
considerations."

     Although we have no formal policy as to the allocation of assets among our
investments, we generally intend to limit investment in a single property to a
maximum of 25% of our total assets. We expect to fund future development and
acquisitions utilizing funds from additional indebtedness, future offerings of
our securities, sale or exchange of existing properties and retained cash flow.
We believe our capital structure is advantageous because it permits us to
acquire additional properties by issuing equity securities in whole or in part
as consideration for the acquired properties. In order to maintain our
qualification as a REIT, we must make annual distributions to our stockholders
of at least 95% of our REIT taxable income (which does not include net capital
gains). This requirement may impair our ability to use retained cash flow for
future acquisitions.

     Financing Policies.

     We intend to make additional investments in properties and may incur
indebtedness to make those investments or to meet the distribution requirements
imposed by the REIT provisions of the Code, to the extent that cash flow from
our operations, investments and working capital is insufficient. Additional
indebtedness incurred by us may be secured by part or all of our real estate
properties. We have no limitation on the number or amount of secured
indebtedness or mortgages that may be placed on any one of our properties.

     Secured indebtedness incurred by us may be in the form of purchase money
obligations to the sellers of properties, publicly or privately placed debt
instruments, or financing from banks, institutional investors or other lenders.
This indebtedness may be recourse to all or any part of our assets, or may be
limited to the particular property to which the indebtedness relates. The
proceeds from any borrowings by us may be used for refinancing existing
indebtedness, for financing development and acquisition of properties, for the
payment of dividends and for working capital.

     If the Board determines to raise additional equity capital, the Board has
the authority, generally without stockholder approval, to issue additional
common stock, preferred stock or other of our capital stock in any manner (and

                                       20

<PAGE>


on such terms and for such consideration) as it deems appropriate, including in
exchange for property. Existing stockholders have no preemptive right to
purchase shares issued in any offering, and any such offering might cause a
dilution of a stockholder's investment in us.

                                 STRATEGIC PLAN

Focus on Multi-Tenant Office Buildings in Target Growth Cities

     After acquisition of the Keystone Buildings and the addition of two
Sheridan principals to our Board, we evaluated our existing real estate
portfolio and elected to refocus our efforts on the acquisition and development
of multi-tenant office buildings with an average tenant size of between 2,500
and 3,000 square feet in certain select cities. In addition, we elected to
pursue the sale of our non-office assets, which at the time included one
industrial and four self-storage properties. As of the date of this prospectus,
we have completed the sale of our industrial property in Denver, Colorado, and
are evaluating the possibilities for sale of our self-storage properties. As
discussed under Risk Factors, however, we may be unable to sell our self-storage
properties until after 2006.

     The Case for an Office Focus

     We believe the public equity markets for REITs reward a strongly focused
strategy and that the office sector receives a relatively higher valuation than
do other property types. We believe the reason for this is that the demand for
office space has continued to grow as the economy has transitioned from
manufacturing to service businesses. We believe that demand will continue in our
target markets. Though much has been written recently about the "New Economy"
characterized by information technology, in fact this transition to a
knowledge-based economy has occurred steadily since the turn of the century.
According to Cognetics, Inc., a leading research firm in the area of economic
change and new company formation, the percentage of "white collar"/service
employment rose from 27% in 1900 to 71% in 1995.

     The Case for Small Tenants

     Within the growing office sector a niche focus on properties with small
average tenant sizes is appropriate due to the strongly positive "corporate
demographics" of small firms. According to data compiled by Cognetics, there
were more than eight million companies in the U.S. economy in 1997. Fully 98% of
these firms employ fewer than 100 employees, and this 98% now employs almost 50%
of all workers. Assuming each office worker occupies the national average of 150
square feet, most firms require less than 15,000 square feet of office space. In
fact, this research further reveals that 90% of all firms employ fewer than 20
employees, indicating an average office space requirement of no more than 3,000
square feet.

     The two frequently cited concerns about the small and mid-sized tenant
office market are its perceived high level of credit risk and its management
intensity. As explained below, we have found that both these concerns are
overstated, and can be addressed by proper staffing and management systems
tailored to this tenant base. These perceived risks are higher than the actual
risks and hence we believe that they provide an effective barrier to entry for
competition and an attractive "expertise-arbitrage" opportunity for us.

     Regarding credit risk, we maintain a high level of credit quality in our
largest office buildings through accounting and collection systems that flag any
late payments and rigorously impose late payment penalty charges. Eviction
action is quickly taken if a tenant does not make timely lease payments. These
control systems are centralized in our Denver headquarters, and monitored by an
experienced accounting staff with many years of service with Sheridan, our

                                       21

<PAGE>


advisor. As Sheridan's management team becomes more familiar with our day-to-day
operations, we believe that we can maintain and improve this high level of
credit quality in all our properties.

     Our experience has shown that the issue of management intensity is largely
a matter of mind-set. Middle market tenants are viewed as problematic primarily
because most property managers are accustomed to giving priority to the large
users. With our deliberate focus on small to mid-size users, we bring a
positive, service-oriented mentality to our tenants.

     Our largest buildings (Keystone and Giltedge) staff an on-site "Tenant
Relations Manager" whose job description is to interface regularly with all
tenants. There also is a building manager assigned to this property to deal with
physical maintenance. The Tenant Relations Manager, unlike a conventional
property manager, does not have responsibility for the physical operation of a
building, but rather is solely dedicated to tenant issues, personifies our
service-oriented mentality and is available to resolve minor tenant service
complaints before they fester into major issues.

     Our Tenant Relations Manager reports directly to a senior manager in the
Denver headquarters, providing direct and regular feedback on tenant concerns.
We believe that as we acquire additional buildings of a size sufficient to
support a Tenant Relations Manager, we will improve our tenant retention rates
over those of our competitors. Over time, we believe that smaller tenants
actually are less demanding than large tenants, who use their economic leverage
not only in initial lease negotiations but throughout their tenancy as well.

AmeriVest Growth Cities

     Within the niche of multi-tenant properties with smaller average tenant
size, we have elected to narrow our focus even further by restricting
acquisition or development activities to institutionally-sized product
(generally a building or project containing 100,000 square feet, unless adding
to an existing metropolitan portfolio) within certain target cities where we
hope to build meaningful multi-property portfolios over the short and medium
term. In order to employ our management resources in the most efficient manner,
these target cities were selected to be within a two-hour travel radius by air
from our Denver headquarters. The target cities also had to be large enough in
total office square footage to offer the possibility of multiple acquisitions
and liquidity in the event of a desired sale and had to have a high
concentration of firms of fewer than 20 employees as derived from the Cognetics
data discussed previously. Using a minimum of 45 million square feet of total
office space (this number includes both single-tenant and multi-tenant
properties), and at least 89% of firms under 20 employees, the top ten cities
(ranked in order of projected ten-year growth) within our targeted geographic
range are as follows:

                               1.       Phoenix
                               2.       Salt Lake City
                               3.       San Francisco
                               4.       San Diego
                               5.       Denver
                               6.       Minneapolis
                               7.       San Antonio
                               8.       Indianapolis
                               9.       Dallas
                              10.       Houston

     The geographic logic of these proposed cities is strong. Sheridan has
experience owning and managing properties in both Phoenix and Dallas, as well as
its current activities in Denver and Indianapolis. We already have a large
existing portfolio of buildings in Texas that will be complemented by a focus on
the three largest cities in the state. Interestingly, all ten of our targeted
cities score in the upper half of the 1999 edition of the "Momentum Index",
developed by the consulting firm of Landauer Real Estate Counselors to measure
the quality and sustained growth prospects of the 66 largest office markets
nationwide. Initially we intend to focus on the Denver, Phoenix and Indianapolis
markets.

Operating Performance and Stockholder Return

     We believe that by focusing on a specific property type in cities with a
growing small tenant market, we should be able to increase our revenues, our
earnings, and our funds from operations (FFO). Although there is no assurance or
guarantee, it is our intention that growth in our revenues, earnings and FFO
will, over the long term, result in an increase in our stock price and the total
return to our stockholders and investors in this offering.

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The following is a discussion and comparison of the financial condition and
results of operations of the Company as of and for the three months ended March
31, 2000 and March 31, 1999 and as of and for the years ended December 31, 1999
and 1998. These discussions should be read in conjunction with our financial
statements, the notes to the financial statements, and the other financial data
included elsewhere in this prospectus.

Results of Operations

Comparison of three months ended March 31, 2000 with the three months ended
March 31, 1999.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Revenues for the first quarter 2000 increased approximately $284,000, and
operating expenses, real estate taxes, interest, and depreciation and
amortization increased approximately $78,000, $17,000, $74,000 and $44,000,
respectively, for a total increase of $213,000 as compared with March 31, 1999.
These increases resulted primarily from inclusion of the operations of the
Keystone Office Park as of July 1, 1999 offset by the elimination of income and
expenses from the operations of the Broadway property which was sold on December
13, 1999. Management fees increased by approximately $57,000 and general and
administrative expenses decreased approximately $20,000 due primarily to the
acquisition of Keystone Office Park and the management agreement with Sheridan
Realty Advisors, LLC in 2000 versus internal management in 1999. The Company
also had interest income of $9,073 for the 2000 period, as compared with $0 for
the 1999 period, primarily as a result of funds being held in escrow from the
sale of the Broadway property for an IRS Section 1031 exchange.

     Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2000 was $114,653, or $.05
per share (basic and diluted), as compared to $71,757, or $.04 per share (basic
and diluted), for the three months ended March 31, 1999.

Comparison of year ended December 31, 1999 with year ended December 31, 1998
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

     The Company acquired the Keystone Buildings effective July 1, 1999 and sold
the Broadway Building on December 13, 1999. At December 31, 1999, the Company
owned 24 properties. Revenues increased $2,160,588, or 57%, to $5,976,757 for
1999 as compared to $3,816,169 for 1998. The increase in revenues was due
primarily to the revenues of the Keystone Buildings being included subsequent to
their acquisition in the amount of $710,000 and the revenues for the 15 office
buildings acquired in 1998 being included for the entire year, which resulted in
an increase of approximately $1,360,000 over 1998. The net gain on the sale of
the Broadway Building and the Bank Building vacant land was approximately
$720,700.

     Property operations, real estate taxes, general and administrative,
interest, depreciation and amortization increased by $680,509, $163,927,
$199,126, $610,838 and $330,855, respectively. All of the increases primarily
resulted from inclusion of the expenses attributable to the purchase of the
Keystone Buildings, subsequent to their purchase, the inclusion of the 15 office
buildings acquired during 1998 for a full year in 1999, and additional personnel
costs as a result of handling property management and accounting on an in-house
basis during 1999. Management fees decreased by $57,538. This was due to a
savings of $93,000 by bringing the property management and accounting functions
in-house and offset by management fees paid for the Keystone Buildings of
$35,500. Interest income increased in 1999 by $11,393 to $15,506 as compared to
$4,113 for 1998.

     As a result of the above factors, the Company had a net income of $968,748,
or $.51 per share, in 1999 as compared with a net loss of $317,406, or $.21 per
share, in 1998. Of the $968,748 net income for the year ended December 31, 1999,
$720,712, or $.38 per share, relates to a gain on the sale of real estate.

                                       23

Comparison of year ended December 31, 1998 with year ended December 31, 1997
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

     The Company acquired 15 properties in June, July and August 1998 (the "1998
Acquired Properties"). At December 31, 1998 the Company owned 24 properties.
Revenues increased $1,333,987, or 54%, to $3,816,169 for 1998 as compared to
$2,482,182 for 1997. The increase in revenues was due primarily to the revenues
of the 1998 Acquired Properties being included subsequent to their respective
acquisition dates in the amount of $1,050,000 and the revenues of the 1997
Acquired Properties (defined below) being included for the entire year, which
resulted in an increase of approximately $144,000 for the 1997 Acquired
Properties for the 1998 period that is comparable to the period that was not
included in 1997.

     Property operations, real estate taxes, management fees, general and
administrative, interest, depreciation and amortization increased by $396,492,
$150,003, $51,373, $46,987, $350,958 and $181,285, respectively. All of the
increases primarily resulted from inclusion of the expenses attributable to each
of the 1998 Acquired Properties subsequent to their respective acquisition dates
and the 1997 Acquired Properties for a full year, as well as increased overhead
in additional personnel costs as a result of handling more property management
and accounting on an in-house basis rather than paying outside parties to
provide these services. The prepayment penalty and other expenses of $321,178
associated with debt refinancing was incurred in 1998 as part of the refinancing
of the mortgage on the Self-Storage Facilities, which resulted in decreasing the
annual interest rate on the mortgage from 9.9%, to 7.15%. Interest income
decreased in 1998 by $32,665 to $4,113 as compared to $36,778 for 1997 as a
result of the Company's utilizing most of its cash accounts for acquisition
purposes.

     As a result of the above factors, the Company had a net loss of $317,406,
or $.21 per share, in 1998 as compared with a net loss of $120,452, or $.09 per
share, in 1997. Of the $317,406 net loss for the year ended December 31, 1998,
$321,178, or $.21 per share, relates to the one-time charge for prepayment
penalty and other expenses associated with the early retirement of the mortgage
described in the previous paragraph.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     From December 31, 1999 to March 31, 2000, net investment in real estate
decreased approximately $249,000. The net decrease was primarily due to
depreciation for the three-month period of $269,000 net of capitalized
improvements to properties of approximately $21,000.

     At March 31, 2000, the Company had approximately $380,000 of cash and cash
equivalents, including approximately $267,500 of cash to be utilized for a
stockholder dividend distribution, which was paid on April 17, 2000. The Company
also had approximately $514,000 in escrow for its "1031 Exchange" referred to
below. Tenant receivables did not significantly change in 2000 compared to 1999.
Deferred financing costs, net, decreased approximately $12,000 due to normal
amortization. Prepaid expenses and other assets decreased by approximately
$74,000 primarily as a result of normal business fluctuations.

     Mortgage loans payable decreased by approximately $84,000 due to scheduled
principal payments. Accounts payable and accrued expenses, and prepaid rents and
security deposits increased by approximately $47,000 and $52,000, respectively,
due primarily to normal business fluctuations. Accrued interest and dividends
payable remained constant. Accrued real estate taxes decreased by approximately
$270,000 due to the payment of 1999 real estate taxes in January 2000.

                                       24

     The Company desires to acquire additional properties and, in order to do
so, it will need to raise additional debt or equity capital. The Company also
intends to obtain credit facilities for short and long-term borrowing with
commercial banks of other financial institutions. The issuance of such
securities or increase in debt for additional properties, of which there is no
assurance, could adversely affect the amount of dividends paid to stockholders.

     Management believes that the cash flow from its properties, together with
its existing bank line of credit and the proceeds from this offering, will be
sufficient to meet the Company's working capital needs for the next year. The
Company has a short-term revolving credit line from Norwest Bank Colorado in the
amount of $300,000. At March 31, 2000, the Company had no outstanding balance on
the line of credit, however, on May 25, 2000 the entire amount was drawn down to
pay a portion of the purchase price for the Panorama Falls Building. We intend
to repay the Line of Credit with a portion of the proceeds from this offering.

     Management believes that inflation should not have a material adverse
effect on the Company. The Company's office leases require the tenants to pay
increases in operating expenses, and the self-storage leases are short-term so
that there are no contractual restraints against increasing rents to attempt to
respond to inflationary pressures, if any inflationary pressures should
materialize.

     From December 31, 1998 to December 31, 1999, net investment in real estate
increased approximately $6,000,000. This increase was due to the acquisition of
the Keystone Property less the sale of two vacant lots adjacent to our Bank of
America buildings in Texas, the sale of the Broadway Building, and normal
depreciation.

     On August 12, 1999 the Company completed the acquisition of the three
Keystone office buildings in Indianapolis, Indiana. The effective date of this
acquisition was July 1, 1999. The Keystone Property contains an aggregate of
approximately 95,836 square feet. The purchase price for Keystone Property was
$7,944,000, which was paid by assuming approximately $5,255,000 of existing debt
and $116,400 of related escrow balances on the properties and issuing
approximately 541,600 shares of the Company s common stock at the rate of $4.75
per share. In conjunction with the assumption of the Debt, the Company also
assumed the obligations and liabilities of the original guarantors of the Debt
with an indemnification back for any obligations and liabilities accruing prior
to the acquisition.

     On December 13, 1999, the Company sold the Broadway industrial showroom
property for $2.1 million and the proceeds were reinvested in a tax-deferred
exchange under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code.

     Tenants accounts receivable increased approximately $13,000 due to normal
fluctuation in the collections cycle. Deferred financing costs decreased by
approximately $77,500 as a result of normal amortization and the sale of the
Broadway Building. Prepaid expenses and other assets increased by approximately
$155,700 due primarily to normal fluctuations in tax, maintenance and insurance
escrow reserves, and the acquisition of Keystone Property.

                                       25

<PAGE>


     Mortgage Property loans payable increased by approximately $3,606,316 due
to the acquisition of the Keystone Property less the sale of the Broadway
Property.

     Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased by approximately $65,500
during the period, all of which resulted from timing differences in the course
of normal operations and the addition of the Keystone Property. Accrued
interest, real estate taxes, prepaid rents and security deposits increased in
total by approximately $284,000. This increase was primarily the result of the
addition of the Keystone Property and the inclusion of the properties acquired
in 1998 for a full year.

     At December 31, 1999, the Company had approximately $458,000 of cash and
cash equivalents, including approximately $267,500 of cash to be utilized for a
stockholder dividend distribution, which was paid on January 14, 2000, and
$510,000 in escrow for a tax-deferred property exchange, which is expected to
close during the second quarter of 2000.

     The Company intends to meet its near-term working capital liquidity
requirements through cash flow provided from operations. The Company has a
short-term revolving credit line from Norwest Bank Colorado in the amount of
$300,000. At December 31, 1999 the Company had no outstanding balance on the
line of credit.

IRS Section 1031 Exchange

     On December 13, 1999, we completed the sale of our Broadway industrial
office and showroom building in Denver, Colorado for $2.1 million, resulting in
a gain on the sale of the property of approximately $720,000.

     On February 24, 2000, we entered into an Agreement of Sale to purchase for
$5.9 million a three-story office building containing approximately 62,000
square feet on approximately six acres of land in southeast Denver, Colorado.
The transaction closed on May 25, 2000. The acquisition was completed with
approximately $514,000 of funds held in escrow and on deposit as part of the
"1031 Exchange" from the sale of the Broadway property, approximately $300,000
from our line of credit, approximately $200,000 from a related party loan, and
$4,919,800 in mortgage financing.

New Accounting Principles

     The FASB recently issued Statement of Financial Standards No. 133,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133"),
which requires that companies recognize all derivatives as either assets or
liabilities in the balance sheet at fair value. Under SFAS 133, accounting for
changes in fair value of a derivative depends on its intended use and
designation. SFAS 133 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15,
2000. The Company is currently assessing the effect of this new standard.

     In December 1999, the staff of the Securities And Exchange Commission
issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 ("SAB 101") "Views on Selected Revenue
Recognition Issues" which provides the staff's views in applying generally
accepted accounting principles to selected revenue recognition issues. The
Company is required to implement SAB 101 during the second quarter of 2000. The
Company is currently assessing the effect of implementing SAB 101.

Year 2000 Compliance

     Year 2000 compliance is the ability of computer hardware and software to
respond to the problems posed by the fact that computer programs traditionally
have used two digits rather than four digits to define an applicable year.
Problems related to year 2000 compliance could result in a system failure or
miscalculations causing interruption of operations, including temporary
inability to send invoices or engage in normal business activities or to operate
equipment such as elevators and air conditioning units installed in our
buildings. Prior to December 31, 1999, we evaluated all our systems that may
have had year 2000 issues. We also surveyed our major vendors and suppliers for
year 2000 compliance. Our cost of year 2000 compliance was not material.

     To date, neither we nor any of our service contractors have encountered any
year 2000 problems. Our contingency plans if year 2000 issues arise include
manual record keeping and use of alternate suppliers.

                                   MANAGEMENT

to be employed; discuss the scope of the independent auditors' examination;
review the financial statements and the independent auditors' report; solicit
recommendations from the independent auditors regarding internal controls and
other matters; review all related party transactions for potential conflicts of

officers and holders of more than 10% of our common stock to file with the SEC

     Advisory Agreement With Sheridan Realty Advisors

     Under an advisory agreement that we entered into with Sheridan Realty
Advisors, LLC effective January 1, 2000, Sheridan Realty Advisors will receive
incentive compensation in the form of an advisory fee based on new real property
acquisitions and up to 750,000 five-year warrants to purchase common stock at $5
per share. Issuance of these warrants is subject to the approval of stockholders
at our next annual meeting. William Atkins, our Chief Executive Officer and a
director of the Company, is the co-manager, chairman and a 20.00% owner of
Sheridan. Charles K. Knight, our Secretary and a director of the Company, is the
co-manager, president and a 20.00% owner of Sheridan. D. Scott Ikenberry, our
Chief Financial Officer is the chief financial officer and a 20.00% owner of
Sheridan. Messrs. Hewitt and Greenman, each of whom is a Vice President, are the
Vice-Chairman and Vice President, respectively, and 20.00% owners of Sheridan.

     Employment Agreement With James F. Etter

     We entered into an employment agreement (the "Etter Agreement") with James
F. Etter, our President, for the period from January 1, 1998 until December 31,
2000, which replaced a previous agreement effective as of January 1, 1996.
Pursuant to the Etter Agreement, Mr. Etter will devote substantially all his
business time to the Company. For the 1999 fiscal year, the Etter Agreement
provided for the payment of salary at the rate of $10,062.50 per month. For the
2000 fiscal year, the Etter Agreement provides for salary at the rate of
$10,565.63 per month. Bonuses are payable in the Board's discretion. The Etter
Agreement also provides that we will reimburse Mr. Etter for up to $12,000
annually for medical and insurance expenses paid by Mr. Etter until we adopt
health care plans covering these matters.

     On December 9, 1998, the Board granted to Mr. Etter a bonus of $20,000 for
1998 and options to purchase 10,000 shares of common stock. On December 23 1999,
the Board authorized a payment to Mr. Etter a of $15,326 for unused accrued
vacation.

     The Etter Agreement also provides that if we are acquired by another
company, and if the acquiring company does not offer Mr. Etter a position in the
Denver area at a salary level equal to or greater than his then current salary,
then all unexercised stock options held by Mr. Etter would immediately become
exercisable, and we would pay Mr. Etter an amount equal to one year's salary.

     Effective January 1, 2000, we entered into a Severance Protection agreement
with Mr.  Etter that is separate  from the Etter  Agreement.  We agreed with Mr.
Etter to  continue  paying  him  salary  and  benefits  for 18  months  if he is
terminated by the Company other than for cause.  These payments would be reduced
by the amount of any severance  payments made to Mr. Etter pursuant to the Etter
Agreement. This agreement will remain in effect until Mr. Etter's 65th birthday.

1995 Stock Option Plan

     Pursuant to our 1995 Stock Option Plan (the "1995 Plan"), we may grant
options to purchase an aggregate of 130,000 shares of our common stock to key
employees, directors, and other persons who have contributed or are contributing
to our success. The options granted pursuant to the 1995 Plan may be incentive
options qualifying for beneficial tax treatment for the recipient or they may be
non-qualified options. With respect to options granted to persons other than our
directors who are not also our employees, the 1995 Plan is administered by an
option committee that determines the terms of the options subject to the
requirements of the 1995 Plan. In May 1995, four outside directors were granted
an aggregate of 48,000 options with an exercise price of $5.00 per share
pursuant to the 1995 Plan, one-third of the options granted becoming exercisable
on each December 30 for three years thereafter, provided that the recipient was
still a director on that date. 12,000 of these options expired without being
exercised. In December 1997, three outside directors were granted an aggregate
of 36,000 options with an exercise price of $4.4375 per share pursuant to the
1995 Plan, and with one-third of the options granted becoming exercisable on
each December 30 for three years thereafter, provided that the recipient was
still a director on that date. At December 31, 1999, options to purchase an
aggregate of 125,000 shares of common stock were outstanding under the 1995
Plan. The option committee may grant additional options to purchase 5,000 shares
pursuant to the 1995 Plan.

1998 Stock Option Plan

     Pursuant to our 1998 Stock Option Plan (the "1998 Plan"), we may grant
options to purchase an aggregate of 200,000 shares of common stock to key
employees, directors, and other persons who have or are contributing to our
success. The options granted pursuant to the 1998 Plan may be incentive options
qualifying for beneficial tax treatment for the recipient, non-qualified
options, or non-qualified non-discretionary options. The terms of the 1998 Plan
concerning incentive options and non-qualifie options are substantially the same
except that only our employees or employees of subsidiaries are eligible for
incentive options, and employees and other persons who have contributed or are
contributing to our success are eligible for non-qualified options.
Non-qualified non-discretionary options may be granted only to outside
directors. With respect to options granted to persons other than outside
directors, the 1998 Plan also is administered by an option committee that
determines the terms of the options subject to the requirements of the 1998
Plan. The portion of the 1998 Plan concerning non-qualified non-discretionary
options provides that outside directors automatically receive options to
purchase 12,000 shares pursuant to the 1998 Plan at the time of their initial
election as an outside director. The options held by outside directors are not
exercisable at the time of grant, but options to purchase 4,000 shares become
exercisable for each outside director on December 30 of each of the first three
years immediately following the date of grant of these options to the outside
director. The exercise price for the non-qualified non-discretionary options is
the fair market value of the common stock on the date these options are granted.
Shares acquired upon exercise of these options cannot be sold for six months
following the date of grant. If not previously exercised, non-qualified
non-discretionary options that have been granted expire upon the later to occur
of five years after the date of grant and two years after the date these options
first became exercisable. The non-qualified non-discretionary options also
expire 90 days after the optionholder ceases to be our director. At any time all
of an outside director's options have become exercisable, non-qualified
non-discretionary options to purchase an additional 12,000 shares, which are not
exercisable at the time of grant, shall be granted automatically to that outside
director.

     All options granted under the 1998 Plan will become fully exercisable upon
the occurrence of a change in control of the Company or of certain mergers or
other reorganizations or asset sales described in the 1998 Plan. Options granted
pursuant to the 1998 Plan are not transferable during the optionee's lifetime.
Subject to the other terms of the 1998 Plan, the option committee has discretion
to provide vesting requirements and specific expiration provisions with respect
to the incentive options and non-qualified options granted. At December 31,
1999, options to purchase 47,000 shares of common stock were outstanding under
the 1998 Plan and options to purchase 153,000 were available to be granted
pursuant to the 1998 Plan.

Sheridan Realty Advisors' Warrants

     Under an advisory agreement that we entered into with Sheridan Realty
Advisors effective January 1, 2000, Sheridan Realty Advisors will receive
compensation designed to provide an incentive for its performance in the form of
an advisory fee based on new real property acquisitions and up to 750,000
five-year warrants to purchase common stock at $5 per share. Issuance of these
warrants is subject to the approval of stockholders, which will be requested at
our next annual meeting. Exercise of the warrants can occur after January 1,
2003 only if another vesting event has occurred. The warrants were issued as of
January 1, 2000 and 225,000 warrants vested on June 6, 2000 when the warrants
were approved by our shareholders. The balance of up to 525,000 warrants vest
only upon completion of an acquisition, purchase or long-term lease of real
property by us in an aggregate exercise price equal to 2.1% of the Equity Value
of the property acquired. "Equity Value" is equal to the acquisition price of
the property (before expenses of purchase) less any mortgage debt assumed or
incurred in connection with the acquisition plus any capital expenditures and
lease-up costs incurred in connection with the property during the first 12
months of ownership. The total amount of Equity Value of real property subject
to the incentive compensation provision shall not exceed $25 million. As stated
above, even after a warrant vests, it is not exercisable until January 1, 2003.

Compensation Of Outside Directors

     We compensate outside directors $250 per month plus $300 for each meeting
of the Board that they attend. We also reimburse directors for expenses incurred
in attending meetings and for other expenses incurred on our behalf. In
addition, each director who is not our employee or an employee of Sheridan
Realty Advisors automatically receives non-qualified non-discretionary options
to purchase shares of common stock.

     We have been involved in the following transactions with our current and
past directors and officers and by persons known by us to be the beneficial
owners of five percent or more of our common stock.

Asset Purchases

     Purchase Of State Of Texas Buildings

     In June and July 1998, we acquired 11 office buildings in Texas that are
leased to various Texas government agencies. The aggregate purchase price for
these buildings included approximately $6,300,000 and 207,200 shares of our
common stock at the rate of $5.00 per share. As part of those transactions, the
sellers of the properties paid Colorado Bighorn Corporation aggregate
commissions of $75,830 and 4,390 shares of common stock. Maxine G. Hedlund, who
beneficially owned more than five percent of our outstanding common stock at the
time of the transaction, controls and is the President and a director of
Colorado Bighorn.

     Purchase Of Four Office Buildings

     In August 1998, we acquired four additional office buildings located in
Texas. The primary tenants in each building are branches of Bank Of America,
N.A. The aggregate purchase price for the four buildings was $3,625,000. As part
of that transaction, we paid Colorado Bighorn aggregate commissions of 13,500
shares of our common stock at the rate of $5.00 per share.

     Purchase Of Keystone Buildings

     On August 12, 1999, we completed the acquisition of three office buildings,
known as the Keystone Buildings, located in suburban Indianapolis, Indiana from
Sheridan Realty Partners, L.P., an affiliate of Sheridan Realty Advisors, LLC,
our advisor, and an affiliate of Messrs. Atkins, Ikenberry, Knight, Hewitt and
Greenman, senior members of our management team. The Keystone Buildings contain
a total of 95,836 square feet of rentable space. The total purchase price for
the Keystone Buildings was $7,944,000, which we paid by assuming approximately
$5,255,000 of existing debt and $116,400 of related escrow balances on the
properties and issuing 541,593 shares of our common stock at the rate of $4.75
per share. We will issue additional shares if the weighted average trading price

                                       36

<PAGE>


of our common stock is not at least $4.75 for the 15 trading days preceding the
first anniversary of the acquisition of the Keystone Buildings. In conjunction
with the assumption of the debt, we also agreed to indemnify the original
guarantors of this debt if we fail to repay it.

     As required pursuant to the Purchase And Sale Agreement with Sheridan
Realty Partners, L.P. regarding our acquisition of the Keystone Buildings, we
appointed William Atkins and Charles K. Knight to our Board. In December 1999,
Mr. Atkins was elected as our Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Atkins is the
President and a 16.5% owner of Sheridan Realty Corp., which is the general
partner of Sheridan Realty Partners. Sheridan Realty Corp. holds a one percent
interest in Sheridan Realty Partners as the general partner and an additional
3.1335% interest as a limited partner. In connection with the acquisition of the
Keystone Buildings, Mr. Atkins received approximately 30,196 of the shares of
our common stock paid by us as a portion of the purchase price. A trust company
for which Mr. Atkins serves as a director serves as trustee for trusts that also
received shares of our common stock. Mr. Atkins has no beneficial interest in
any shares held by the trust company. Mr. Atkins is also the Chairman and a
20.0% owner of Sheridan Realty Advisors, LLC.

     We hired Sheridan Development, LLC to manage the Keystone Buildings for a
one-year term commencing on July 1, 1999. During that term, Sheridan Development
is responsible for all aspects of the management and operation of the Keystone
Buildings and coordinating the leasing of the Keystone Buildings. As
compensation, we pay a management fee equal to 5% of the gross monthly rental
income received from the Keystone Buildings. Mr. Atkins is the co-manager,
President and a 25.05% owner of Sheridan Development. Mr. Knight is a Vice
President and 9.9% owner of Sheridan Development and the President and a 20.0%
owner of Sheridan Realty Advisors, LLC. This management agreement was
effectively terminated as of January 1, 2000 when Sheridan Realty Advisors
became the property manager for all of our properties other than the Texas
properties.

     After we purchased the Keystone Buildings, Charles K. Knight purchased from
the Crawford, Wilson, Ryan & Agulnick, P.C. Profit Sharing Plan (the "Plan"), a
partner in Sheridan Realty Partners, L.P., the 5,343 shares to be received by
the Plan as a portion of the purchase price. Mr. Knight paid the Plan $4.40 per
share. Mr. Knight was appointed to our Board pursuant to the terms of the
Purchase And Sale Agreement with Sheridan and, in December 1999, Mr. Knight was
elected as our Secretary.

     Additionally, after our purchase of the Keystone Buildings, William Atkins
and the Alexander S. Hewitt Revocable Trust purchased 3,589 shares of common
stock from John B. Greenman at a price of $4.75 per share. John Greenman is an
employee of Sheridan Realty Advisors, LLC. Alexander S. Hewitt also received
approximately 53,079 of the shares of common stock paid by us as a portion of
the purchase price for the Keystone Buildings. Mr. Hewitt is Executive Vice
President and a 17.5% owner of Sheridan Realty Corp., which is the general
partner of Sheridan Realty Partners. The Alexander S. Hewitt Revocable Trust is
also a 2.5% owner of Sheridan Realty Corp. A trust company for which Mr. Hewitt
serves as a director serves as trustee for trusts that received an aggregate of
83,185 additional shares of common stock. Mr. Hewitt is also a beneficiary of
some of these trusts. Mr. Hewitt is also the Vice-Chairman and a 20.00% owner of
Sheridan Realty Advisors, LLC. Mr. Greenman, our Vice President, is also a Vice
President of Sheridan Realty Advisors, LLC. Mr. Ikenberry, our Chief Financial
Officer, is also the Chief Financial Officer of Sheridan Realty Advisors, LLC.
Both Mr. Greenman and Mr. Ikenberry are 20.0% owners of Sheridan Realty
Advisors, LLC.

    Loan For Panorama Falls Property

     In order to pay a portion of the purchase price for the Panorama property,
on May 25, 2000, we borrowed $225,000 from the Alexander S. Hewitt Trust, using
$200,000 in connection with the purchase. This loan accrues interest at the
prime rate, is due on demand after one year or five days after closing of this
public offering of Units of Common Stock and Warrants with proceeds to us of at
least $2 million, and is unsecured. We have the right to prepay this loan at any
time without penalty and intend to do so with the proceeds of this offering even
if those proceeds are less than $2,000,000. Alexander S. Hewitt is a shareholder
and officer of the Company, an owner and officer of Sheridan and a trustee and
beneficiary of the Alexander S. Hewitt Trust.

     Other than as described in this section, there are no material
relationships between us and our directors, executive officers or known holders
of more than five percent of our common stock.

Agreement With Sheridan Realty Advisors

     Effective January 1, 2000, we entered into an agreement with Sheridan
Realty Advisors, LLC for it to assume responsibility for our day-to-day
operations. Sheridan Realty Advisors will manage our assets and will assist and
advise our Board on real estate acquisitions and investment opportunities. We
will pay Sheridan Realty Advisors an administrative fee and a property
management and accounting fee for these services. Our agreement with Sheridan
Realty Advisors provides that the costs for these services in fiscal 2000 will
be no greater than the costs incurred by us for providing these services
ourselves or in obtaining them from outside sources in fiscal year 1999. In
addition, Sheridan will receive incentive compensation in the form of five-year
warrants to purchase our common stock at $5 per share and an advisory fee based
on new real property acquisitions. Issuance of the warrants is subject to
stockholder approval, which will be requested at our next Annual Meeting of
Stockholders. Mr. Atkins is the co-manager, chairman and a 20.00% owner of
Sheridan Realty Advisors, LLC. Mr. Knight is the co-manager, President and a
20.00% owner of Sheridan Realty Advisors, LLC.

     In order to pay a portion of the purchase price for the Panorama property,
on May 25, 2000, we borrowed $225,000 from the Alexander S. Hewitt Trust. This
loan accrues interest at the prime rate, is due on demand after one year or five
days after closing of this public offering of Units of Common Stock and Warrants
with proceeds to us of at least $2 million, and is unsecured. We have the right
to prepay this loan at any time without penalty and intend to do so with the
proceeds of this offering even if those proceeds are less than $2 million.
Alexander S. Hewitt is a shareholder and officer of the Company, an owner and
officer of Sheridan and a trustee and beneficiary of the Alexander S. Hewitt
Trust.

Conflicts Of Interest Policies

     The Board and our officers are subject to certain provisions of Maryland
law which are designed to eliminate or minimize the effects of certain potential
conflicts of interest. In addition, the Bylaws provide that any transaction
between us and an interested party must be fully disclosed to the Board, and
that a majority of the directors not otherwise interested in the transaction
(including a majority of independent directors) must make a determination that
the transaction is fair, competitive and commercially reasonable and on terms
and conditions not less favorable to us than those available from unaffiliated
third parties.

     All future transaction between us and our officers, directors and five
percent shareholders will be on terms no less favorable than could be obtained
from independent third parties and will be approved by a majority of
independent, disinterested directors of the Company. We believe that by
following these procedures, the Company will be able to mitigate the possible
effects of these conflicts of interest.

                            DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

     Our authorized capital consists of 15,000,000 shares of $.001 par value
common stock and 5,000,000 shares of $.001 par value preferred stock. There were
2,228,850 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of March 22, 2000,
and these outstanding shares were held by approximately 500 shareholders There
are no shares of preferred stock outstanding. As of February 28 2000, there are
outstanding warrants to purchase 2,049,435 shares of common stock at $5.40 per
share that are held by 43 holders until November 13, 2000 and additional
warrants to purchase 164,831 shares of common stock at $8.25 per share held by
one holder (the original underwriter of our initial public offering) until
November, 2000. The following is a description of our securities.

Common Stock

     During the Annual Meeting of stockholders held on June 29, 1999, the
stockholders approved the reincorporation of AmeriVest in the State of Maryland,
including the increase of our authorized common stock from 10,000,000 shares to
15,000,000 shares.

                                       38

<PAGE>


     Each share of the common stock is entitled to share equally with each other
share of common stock in dividends from sources legally available therefore,
when, as, and if declared by the Board and, upon liquidation or dissolution,
whether voluntary or involuntary, to share equally in our assets that are
available for distribution to the holders of the common stock. Each holder of
common stock is entitled to one vote per share for all purposes, except that in
the election of directors, each holder shall have the right to vote such number
of shares for as many persons as there are directors to be elected. Cumulative
voting shall not be allowed in the election of directors or for any other
purpose, and the holders of common stock have no preemptive rights, redemption
rights or rights of conversion with respect to the common stock. All outstanding
shares of common stock and all shares underlying the warrants when issued will
be fully paid and nonassessable by us. The Board is authorized to issue
additional shares of common stock within the limits authorized by our
Certificate Of Incorporation and without stockholder action.

     Because all shares of common stock have equal voting rights and voting
rights are not cumulative, the holders of more than 50 percent of the shares of
common stock could, therefore, if they chose to do so and unless subject to a
voting agreement to the contrary, elect the entire Board.

     Although we have paid dividends in the past, we cannot guarantee that we
will be able to pay dividends on a regularly quarterly basis in the future.

     We have reserved a sufficient number of shares of common stock for issuance
upon the exercise of options under our 1995 Plan and 1998 Stock Option Plan.

Preferred Stock

     We have available 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock for potential future
issuance. No shares of preferred stock currently are outstanding.

     The preferred stock carries such relative rights, preferences and
designations as may be determined by the Board in its sole discretion upon the
issuance of any shares of preferred stock. The shares of preferred stock could
be issued from time to time by the Board in its sole discretion without further
approval or authorization by the shareholders, in one or more series, each of
which series could have any particular distinctive designations as well as
relative rights and preferences as determined by the Board. The relative rights
and preferences that may be determined by the Board in its discretion from time
to time, include but are not limited to the following:

     o    the rate of dividend and whether the dividends are to be cumulative
          and the priority, if any, of dividend payments relative to other
          series in the class;

     o    whether the shares of any such series may be redeemed, and if so, the
          redemption price and the terms and conditions of redemption;

     o    the amount payable with respect to such series in the event of
          voluntary or involuntary liquidation and the priority, if any, of each
          series relative to other series in the class with respect to amounts
          payable upon liquidation and sinking fund provisions, if any, for the
          redemption or purchase of the shares of that series; and

     o    the terms and conditions, if any, on which the shares of a series may
          be converted into or exchanged for shares of any class, whether common
          or preferred, or into shares of any series of the same class, and if
          provision is made for conversion or exchange, the times, prices,
          rates, adjustments and other terms.

     The existence of authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock could
have anti-takeover effects because we could issue preferred stock with special
dividend or voting rights that could discourage potential bidders.

                                       39

<PAGE>


     Approval by the stockholders of the authorization of the preferred stock
gave the Board the ability, without stockholder approval, to issue these shares
with rights and preferences determined by the Board in the future. As a result,
we may issue shares of preferred stock that have dividend, voting and other
rights superior to those of the common stock, or that convert into shares of
common stock, without the approval of the holders of common stock. This could
result in the dilution of the voting rights, ownership and liquidation value of
current shareholders.

Warrants

     Warrants Offered By This Prospectus

     Each warrant offered by this prospectus entitles the register holder to
purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $5 per share, subject
to adjustment in certain events, at any time during the period commencing on the
date of this prospectus and expiring on the fifth anniversary of the date of
this prospectus. The warrants are subject to our redemption at $.01 per warrant
at any time prior to their exercise upon 30 days' prior notice to the holders of
the warrants, provided that the last trade price of the common stock reported on
the American Stock Exchange for at least 15 of the 20 consecutive days ending on
the third day prior to the date on which we give notice of redemption has been
at least 125 percent of the then effective exercise price of the warrants.

     We do not intend to list the warrants for trading on any exchange and it is
unlikely that any significant over-the-counter market will develop for these
warrants.

     Initial Public Offering Warrants

     General. Each warrant that was issued in our initial public offering is
exercisable to purchase one share of common stock for $5.40 per share until
November 13, 2000. As of December 6, 1999, 2,049,435 of these warrants were
outstanding and an additional 164,831 warrants were reserved for issuance upon
the exercise of outstanding underwriters' warrants.

     Current Registration Statement Required For Exercise. In order for a holder
to exercise that holder's warrants, there must be a current registration
statement on file with the SEC and with various state securities commissions to
continue registration of the issuance of the shares of common stock underlying
the warrants. We intend to maintain a current registration statement during the
period that the warrants are exercisable unless the market price of the common
stock underlying the warrants would create no economic incentive for exercise of
the warrants. To date, no material economic incentive for exercise has existed.
On July 29, 1999, the highest trading price for the common stock, as reported by
the Nasdaq Small Cap Market, was $5.43. During the past year, no other trading
price equaled or exceeded that figure. If these circumstances continue to exist
during the entire exercise period of the warrants issued in our public offering,
the warrants could expire without the holders having had an opportunity to
exercise their warrants and realize any material economic return.

     Redemption. The warrants issued in our initial public offering are
redeemable by the Company at any time prior to their exercise upon 30 days prior
written or published notice, provided however, that the closing bid quotation
for the common stock for at least 15 of the 20 business days ending on the third
day prior to our giving notice of redemption has been at least 125% of the then
effective exercise price of the warrants. The redemption price for the warrants
is $.02 per warrant. Any warrant holder that does not exercise prior to the date
set forth in the notice of redemption will forfeit the right to exercise the
warrants and purchase the shares of common stock underlying those warrants. Any
warrants outstanding after the redemption date will be deprived of any value
except the right to receive the redemption price of $.02 per warrant.

Transfer Agent And Registrar

     Our transfer agent and registrar is GEMISYS Corporation, located at 7103 S.
Revere Parkway, Englewood, Colorado 80112, telephone number (303) 705-6000.

                              PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

     This prospectus relates to the sale of up to 300,000 units. The units are
offered at $10 per unit. Each unit consists of two shares of common stock and
one redeemable common stock purchase warrant to purchase one share of common
stock. The shares of common stock and the warrants may be detached from the
units and traded separately.

     We have not entered into any underwriting arrangements with respect to the
sale of these units. Brokerage fees or commissions of up to 5% may be paid to
broker-dealers registered with the SEC, the National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc. and state authorities in connection with sales of the units,
however we have not entered into any agreement to pay such fees or commissions.
We are relying on the safe harbor provision of Rule 3a4-1 of the Exchange Act,
which exempts us from broker-dealer registration.

     Our directors and executive officers are offering the units on a "best
efforts" basis with no minimum offering amount during the offering period until
July 31, 2000. We may extend the offering period to September 30, 2000, in our
discretion. All funds collected from subscribers for subscriptions that are
accepted will be available to be used by us immediately. We previously planned
to have a minimum offering of $2 million prior to being able to use funds raised
in this offering. During the initial 90-day Offering period, we were unable to
reach the minimum. We have therefor decided to no longer have a minimum offering
amount and to limit the maximum offering to no more than $3 million rather than
the previous maximum of $10 million. Potential investors desiring to purchase
units should do the following:

     o    Complete and sign the subscription agreement included at the end of
          this prospectus;
     o    Make checks payable to AmeriVest Properties Inc.; and
     o    Send the completed subscription agreement and check to us at the

                           Denver, Colorado 80202


     If a subscription is not accepted, the funds sent by that subscriber will
be promptly refunded without interest or deduction. Promptly after acceptance of
subscriptions, we will deliver stock certificates and warrant certificates
representing the Units to the subscribers.


     SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION POSITION ON CERTAIN INDEMNIFICATION

     The General Corporation Law of the State of Maryland (the "Maryland Code")
provides for mandatory indemnification against reasonable expenses incurred by
directors and officers of a corporation in connection with an action, suit or
proceeding brought by reason of their position as a director or officer if they
are successful, on the merits or otherwise, in defense of the proceeding. The
Maryland Code also allows a corporation to indemnify directors or officers in

                                       41

<PAGE>


such proceedings if the director or officer acted in good faith, in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation, and, in the case of a criminal proceeding, he had no reasonable
cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

     The Maryland Code permits a corporation to expand the rights to
indemnification by a provision in its bylaws, by an agreement, by resolution of
shareholders or directors not involved in the proceeding, or otherwise. However,
a corporation may not indemnify a director or officer if the proceeding was one
by or on behalf of the corporation and in the proceeding the director of officer
is adjudged to be liable to the corporation. Our Bylaws provide that we are
required to indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted
by law, including those circumstances in which indemnification would otherwise
be discretionary.

         In addition to the general  indemnification  described  above,  we have
adopted,  in our articles of incorporation,  a provision under the Maryland Code
that eliminates and limits certain personal  liability of directors and officers
for monetary damages for breaches of the fiduciary duty of care.

         Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act may be permitted to directors,  officers or persons  controlling the Company
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that, in the opinion
of the SEC, that  indemnification  is against  public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

                                  LEGAL MATTERS

     Patton Boggs LLP, Denver, Colorado, has acted as our counsel in connection
with this offering, including the validity of the issuance of the securities
offered in this prospectus. Attorneys employed by that firm beneficially own
9,650 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 1,500 shares of common
stock.

                                     EXPERTS

     The audited financial statements of AmeriVest Properties Inc. appearing in
this prospectus have been examined by Wheeler Wasoff, P.C., independent
certified public accountants, as set forth in their report included in the
annual financial statements. Those financial statements are included in this
prospectus in reliance upon such report and upon the authority of that firm as
experts in auditing and accounting.

                              CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT


To The Board of Directors and Stockholders
AMERIVEST PROPERTIES INC.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of AmeriVest
Properties Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1999, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for
each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 1999. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audit.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform our audits 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of AmeriVest Properties
Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1999, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended
December 31, 1999 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     ORGANIZATION

     AmeriVest Properties Inc. (the Company) was incorporated under the laws of
     the State of Delaware on August 25, 1993 and was reincorporated in the
     State of Maryland in 1999. Effective January 1, 1996 the Company commenced

     trust ("REIT"). The Company owns and operates, through its wholly owned
     subsidiaries, an office building in Appleton, Wisconsin, an office building
     complex in Indianapolis, Indiana, eighteen commercial office properties in
     the State of Texas, and four self-storage facilities in Denver, Colorado.

     BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the consolidated
     operations of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, as follows:

                    AmeriVest Broadway Properties Inc. (ABP)
                    Consolidated Storage Properties Inc. (CSP)

     All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated
     in consolidation.

     INVESTMENT IN REAL ESTATE

     Real estate, property, and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and
     amortization are computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated
     useful lives as follows:

        Description                       Estimated Useful Lives
        -----------                       ----------------------

        Land                              Not Depreciated
        Buildings                         15 to 40 years
        Equipment                         5 to 7 years
        Tenant Improvements               Corresponding term of tenant's lease

     Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred and improvements are
     capitalized. The cost of assets sold or retired and the related accumulated
     depreciation and/or amortization are removed from the accounts and the
     resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations in the period in which
     such sale or retirement occurs.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

     The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS")
     121 "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
     Assets to Be Disposed of" which requires that long-lived assets to be held
     and used be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in
     circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
     recoverable. The adoption of SFAS 121 has not had an impact on the
     Company's consolidated financial statements, as the Company has determined
     that no impairment loss for 1998 or 1999 need to be recognized for
     applicable assets of continuing operations

     REVENUE RECOGNITION

     Rental revenue from real estate operations is recognized as earned, on a
     monthly basis.

     INCOME TAXES

     Effective January 1, 1996 the Company elected to be taxed as a REIT under
     Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
     (the "Code"). As a REIT, the Company generally would not be subject to
     federal income taxation at the corporate level to the extent it distributes
     annually at least 95% of its REIT taxable income, as defined in the Code,
     to its stockholders and satisfies certain other requirements. Accordingly,
     no provision has been made for federal income taxes in the accompanying
     consolidated financial statements.

     Certain of the Company's subsidiaries are subject to certain state excise
     and franchise taxes. The provision for such state taxes has been reflected
     in general and administrative expense in the consolidated statement of
     operations and has not been separately stated due to its insignificance.

     For federal income tax purposes, the cash dividend paid to stockholders may
     be characterized as ordinary income, return of capital (generally
     non-taxable) or capital gains. Dividends for the year ended December 31,
     1998 totaling $720,660 are characterized 100% as return of capital and
     includes the dividend declared in the fourth quarter of 1998 of $199,052
     ($.12 per share) which was paid January 14, 1999. Dividends for the year
     ended December 31, 1999 totaling $933,029 are characterized 46% as return
     of capital and 54% ordinary income and includes the dividend declared in
     the fourth quarter of 1999 of $267,462 ($.12 per share) which was paid
     January 14, 2000.

     SHARE BASED COMPENSATION

     In October 1995, SFAS No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" was
     issued. This standard defines a fair value based method of accounting for
     an employee stock option or similar equity instrument. This statement gives
     entities a choice of recognizing related compensation expense by adopting

                                     F - 8

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

     the new fair value method or to continue to measure compensation using the
     intrinsic value approach under Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion
     No. 25. The Company has elected to utilize APB No. 25 for measurement, and
     will, pursuant to SFAS No. 123, disclose supplementally the pro forma
     effects on net income and earnings per share of using the new measurement
     criteria. During the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1999, the Company
     issued options to purchase shares of its common stock (Note 5).

     DEFERRED FINANCING COSTS

     Deferred financing costs include fees and costs incurred to obtain
     long-term financing. These fees and costs are being amortized over the
     terms of the respective loans on a basis, which approximates the interest
     method. Unamortized deferred financing fees are written-off when debt is
     retired before the maturity date. In 1998 unamortized deferred financing
     costs of $37,080 were charged to operations and are included in the
     accompanying financial statements as a component of "Expenses associated
     with debt refinancing". Accumulated amortization of deferred financing
     costs was $70,154 at December 31, 1999.

     TENANT LEASING COSTS

     Fees and costs incurred in the successful negotiation of leases have been
     deferred and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of
     the respective leases.

     CASH EQUIVALENTS

     For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers as cash
     equivalents all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months
     or less at the time of purchase. On occasion, the Company has cash in banks
     in excess of federally insured amounts.

     USE OF 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
     disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
     financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
     the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

INCOME OR LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

     Basic income (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing net income
     (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during
     the year. Diluted income per common share is calculated by adjusting
     outstanding shares, assuming conversion of all potentially dilutive stock
     options. Convertible equity instruments, consisting of warrants and
     options, are not considered in the calculation of loss per share for 1998,
     as there inclusion would be antidilutive.

     NEW TECHNICAL PRONOUNCEMENTS

     In June 1998 SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
     Hedging Activities", was issued for fiscal years beginning after June 15,

     Company's financial statements.

     In October 1998 SFAS No. 134, "Accounting for Mortgage Broker Securities",
     was issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998. Adoption of
     SFAS No. 134 does not have an impact on the Company's financial statements.

     In February 1999 SFAS No. 135, "Rescission of FASB Statement No. 75 and
     Technical Corrections" was issued for the fiscal years beginning after
     February 15, 1999. Adoption of SFAS No. 135 is not expected to have an
     impact on the Company's financial statements.

     In June 1999 SFAS No. 136, "Transfers of Assets to a Not-For-Profit
     Organization or Charitable Trust that Raises or Holds Contributions for
     Others" was issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1999.
     Adoption of SFAS No. 136 is not expected to have an impact on the Company's
     financial statements.

     In June 1999 SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
     Hedging Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statements No.
     133" was issued. Adoption of SFAS No. 137 is not expected to have an impact
     on the Company's financial statements.

NOTE 2 - INVESTMENTS IN REAL ESTATE

     In 1998 the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiaries APT and AOI,
     acquired eleven office buildings in Texas under separate purchase
     contracts. The primary tenants of each of these buildings are government
     agencies of the State of Texas. The aggregate purchase price for the eleven
     properties was $7,340,800, comprised of 207,200 shares of common stock,
     valued at $5.00 per share, a promissory note to one of the sellers in the
     amount of $192,000 and $6,112,800 cash, of which $6,000,000 was financed by
     a first mortgage on the properties. Pursuant to the purchase agreements and
     related subscription agreements executed by the seller, the seller will be
     issued additional shares of common stock if either (a) the average last
     sales price of the Company's common stock is not $5.00 per share or higher
     during the 60 days immediately preceding the first anniversary of the
     closing date or (b) the last sales price of common stock is not $5.00
     higher on the 15 consecutive business days immediately preceding the first
     anniversary of the closing date of the properties. The additional shares to
     be issued will be based on the difference between the amounts as calculated
     in (a) or (b) above and $5.00 per share. Accordingly, the shares issued
     were valued at $5.00 per share. Twenty eight thousand four hundred and
     eighty seven (28,487) additional shares were issued in 1999 in accordance
     with this provision.

     In 1998 the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary ABT, acquired four
     office buildings in Texas whose primary tenants are branch offices of a
     commercial bank. The aggregate purchase price for the four properties,
     which were acquired under one purchase contract, was $3,625,000. In
     conjunction with the purchase the Company issued 13,500 shares of its
     common stock, valued at $5.00 per share, as part of the sales commission on
     the properties.

NOTE 2 - INVESTMENTS IN REAL ESTATE (CONTINUED)

     In 1999 the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary API, acquired an
     office building complex in Indiana (Keystone Buildings). These buildings
     are part of an office park and they are multi-tenated with small to medium
     sized tenants. The purchase price was $7,944,000. In conjunction with the
     purchase, the Company assumed approximately $5,255,000 of existing debt and
     issued 541,593 shares of its common stock valued at $2,572,568 ($4.75 per
     share). Pursuant to the purchase agreements and related subscription
     agreements executed by the seller, the seller will be issued additional
     shares of common stock if either (a) the average last sales price of the
     Company's common stock is not $4.75 per share or higher during the 60 days
     immediately preceding the first anniversary of the closing date or (b) the
     last sales price of common stock is not $4.75 higher on the 15 consecutive
     business days immediately preceding the first anniversary of the closing
     date of the properties. The additional shares to be issued will be based on
     the difference between the amounts as calculated in (a) or (b) above and
     $4.75 per share. Accordingly, the shares issued were valued at $4.75 per
     share.

     In August and September 1999 the Company sold two vacant lots adjacent to
     its bank buildings in Texas with aggregate cash proceeds of approximately
     $60,000.

     In December 1999 the Company sold its industrial office and showroom
     building in Colorado for $2.1 million resulting in a gain of approximately
     $737,000. The net proceeds of approximately $510,000 are being held in
     escrow to complete a tax-deferred exchange under Section 1031 of the
     Internal Revenue Code by June 2000. If the exchange is not completed by
     June 2000, the Company will be obligated to distribute to stockholders a
     portion of the gain and may be subject to a tax liability if the
     distribution requirement is not met.

     Depreciation expense related to investment in real estate was $718,993 and
     $1,023,560 for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1999, respectively.

NOTE 5 - STOCK OPTION PLAN

     In March 1998, the Board of Directors approved the 1998 Stock Option Plan
     (the "1998 Option Plan"). Pursuant to the Option Plan, the Company may
     grant options to purchase an aggregate of 200,000 shares of the Company's
     common stock to key employees, directors, and other persons who have or are
     contributing to the success of the Company. The options granted pursuant to
     the Option Plan may be either incentive options qualifying for beneficial
     tax treatment for the recipient or non-qualified options. Directors who are
     not also employees of the Company ("Outside Directors") automatically
     receive options to purchase 12,000 shares pursuant to the Option Plan at
     the time of their election as an Outside Director. None of these options
     are exercisable at the time of grant. Options to purchase 4,000 shares
     become exercisable for each Outside Director on December 30 of each of the
     first three years immediately following the date of grant of the options to
     that Outside Director. The exercise price for options granted to Outside
     Directors is the fair market value of the common stock on the date of
     grant, and all options granted to Outside Directors expire five years from
     the date of grant. On the date that all of an Outside Director's options
     have expired, options to purchase an additional 12,000 shares, none of
     which is exercisable at that time, shall be granted to that Outside
     Director. The 1998 option plan was adopted as the Company had issued
     substantially all options available pursuant to the 1995 Stock Option Plan.

     The status of outstanding options granted pursuant to the Company's Stock
     Option Plans was as follows:

     The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using
     the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average
     assumptions used for grants: dividend yield of 10.41% to 11.3%; expected
     volatility of 21.5% to 43.48%; discount rate of 5.5% to 5.7%; and expected
     lives of 5 years.

     At December 31, 1998 the number of options exercisable was 83,750, the
     weighted average exercise price of these options was $4.81, the weighted
     average contractual life of the options was 5 years and the range of
     exercise prices was $3.97 to $5.00 per share.

     At December 31, 1999 the number of options exercisable was 122,000, the
     weighted average exercise price of these options was $4.72, the weighted
     average contractual life of the options was 5 years and the range of
     exercise prices was $3.97 to $5.00 per share.

     At December 31, 1998 and 1999 options to purchase 193,000 shares and
     158,000 shares, respectively, were available to be granted pursuant to the
     Company's 1995 and 1998 option plans.

NOTE 6 - LEASE AGREEMENTS (CONTINUED)

     Some leases also provide for additional rent based on increases in
     operating expenses. These increases are generally payable annually in the
     succeeding year. The Company's self-storage facilities are generally leased
     on a month to month basis, and are therefore not included in the above
     table.

NOTE 7 - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

     FAIR VALUE

     The Company's financial instruments include tenant accounts receivable,
     accounts payable, other accrued expenses and mortgage loans and notes
     payable. The fair values of these financial instruments were not materially
     different from their carrying or contract values.

     CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

     The Company leases office space to commercial businesses in Colorado,
     Indiana, Wisconsin and Texas. The Company also leases office space to State
     of Texas governmental agencies. The terms of the leases generally require
     basic rent payments at the beginning of each month. Credit risk associated
     with the lease agreements is limited to the amount of rents receivable from
     tenants less any related security deposits. Leases with the State of Texas
     governmental agencies may be canceled by the lessee should funding for the
     specific government agency on a complete agency basis be decreased or
     discontinued. The Company's self-storage facilities are generally leased on
     a monthly basis. Credit risk associated with these leases is limited to the
     amounts of rents receivable.

     Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to
     concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of cash and cash
     equivalents. The Company maintains cash accounts at two financial
     institutions. The Company periodically evaluates the credit worthiness of
     these financial institutions, and maintains cash accounts only in large
     high quality financial institutions, thereby minimizing exposure for
     deposits in excess of federally insured amounts. On occasion, cash on
     deposit may exceed federally insured amounts.

NOTE 8 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     The Company's Colorado and Wisconsin properties were managed through
     December 1998, under a management agreement, by an entity whose former
     beneficial majority shareholder was a founder of the Company. The entity
     managed all aspects of Colorado and Wisconsin property operations,
     including leasing and bookkeeping. For these services, the Company was
     charged a fee of 5% of gross revenues plus 5% of all personnel costs. In
     addition, the entity provided bookkeeping services for the Company's Texas
     properties, and was paid a fee at the rate of 2% of gross revenues from
     these properties. During the year ended December 31, 1998, $150,520, was
     incurred under the management agreement and for other administrative
     services.

     As required pursuant to the Company's acquisition of the Keystone Buildings
     from Sheridan Realty Partners L.P. (Sheridan LP) certain principals of
     Sheridan LP were appointed to the Company's Board of Directors and received
     shares of the Company's common stock issued in conjunction with the
     acquisition. The Keystone Buildings property was managed through December
     1999 under a management agreement by Sheridan Development LLC., an
     affiliate of Sheridan, L.P. by virtue of interlocking ownership and

NOTE 9 - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

     There are no adjustments necessary to net income (loss) as presented in the
     accompanying consolidated statements of operations to derive comprehensive
     income in accordance with SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income".

NOTE 10 - SEGMENT REPORTING

     In June 1997, SFAS No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and
     Related Information" was issued, which amends the requirements for a public
     enterprise to report financial and descriptive information about its
     reportable operating segments. Operating segments, as defined in the
     pronouncement, are components of an enterprise about which separate
     financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the
     Company in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.
     The financial information is required to be reported on the basis that is
     used internally for evaluating segment performance and deciding how to
     allocate resources to segments.

     The Company has reportable segments organized by the region in which they
     operate as follows: Wisconsin, Indiana, Colorado and Texas.

     The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in
     the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company evaluates
     performance based upon income from real estate from the combined properties
     in each segment.

     In 1998 segment information for the State of Texas were classified as
     "Leased to State" and "Bank Buildings", based on major tenants. These 1998
     amounts have been reported under one segment for 1999 - "Texas". The 1998
     amounts have been reclassified to conform to 1999 reportable segments.

1.   General
     -------

     The unaudited financial statements included herein were prepared from the
records of the Company in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles in the United States and reflect all adjustments which are, in the
opinion of management, necessary to provide a fair statement of the results of
operations and financial position for the interim periods. Such financial
statements generally conform to the presentation reflected in the Company's Form
10-KSB filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ended
December 31,1999. The current interim period reported herein should be read in
conjunction with the Company's Form 10-KSB subject to independent audit at the
end of the year.

     The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2000 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
December 31, 2000.

2.   Agreement with Sheridan Realty Advisors, LLC
     --------------------------------------------

     Effective January 1, 2000, all of the Company's properties are managed
under an agreement with Sheridan Realty Advisors, LLC ("Sheridan"), which also
manages day-to-day operations of the Company and assists and advises the Board
of Directors on real estate acquisitions and investment opportunities. Certain
senior members of Sheridan are members of the Company's management team and of
the Company's Board of Directors. Sheridan receives an administrative fee and a
property management and accounting fee for these services. Our agreement with
Sheridan provides that the cost for these services in fiscal year 2000 will be
no greater than the costs incurred by us for providing these services ourselves,
or from obtaining them from other outside sources, in fiscal year 1999. In
addition, Sheridan will receive incentive compensation in the form of five-year
warrants to purchase up to 750,000 shares of our common stock at $5 per share
and an advisory fee based on new property acquisitions. Issuance of the warrants
is subject to shareholder approval, which is being requested in a separate proxy
statement dated May 2, 2000.

3.   Stock Offering
     --------------

     On March 29, 2000, our Registration Statement became effective with the
Securities and Exchange Commission for a $10 million common stock and warrants
offering. The offering has a minimum of 200,000 units and a maximum of 1,000,000
units. Each unit consists of two shares of common stock and one redeemable
common stock purchase warrant. The units are being sold at $10 per unit. The
offering period is for 60 days; however, the Company's Board of Directors may
extend the offering period for up to 60 additional days. The proceeds from the
sale of these units, after payment of expenses of the offering, will be used to
acquire real estate properties, to repay debt or to increase working capital.
