(A) Reflects the most recent multifamily residential property acquisitions, which include 2900 on First and Woodland Hills (acquired
    April and May, 1996, respectively) (collectively the "1996 Most Recent Acquired Properties"). In connection with such
    acquisitions the amounts presented include the initial purchase price as well as subsequent closing costs incurred and capital
    improvements required as identified in the acquisition process. Also reflects the paydown of $14.5 million of mortgage
    indebtedness secured by Regency Palms which property was acquired in March 1996.


(B) Reflects the probable acquisitions of Brierwood, Mallard Cove, Desert Sands Village, Canyon Sands, Ridgetree, Sunnyoak Village,
    Rosehill Pointe, Forest Ridge, Country Ridge, Park Place, Lakeville Resort, Briarwood Place, Post Place, Summer Ridge, Promenade
    Terrace, South Creek, Lakeview at Superstition Springs and Lands End (collectively the "1996 Probable Properties"). In
    connection with such acquisitions the amounts presented include the initial purchase price as well as subsequent closing costs
    incurred and capital improvements required as identified in the acquisition process and the assumption of $123 million of
    mortgage indebtedness secured by nine of the 1996 Probable Properties.


(C) Reflects the issuance of 3,476,390 Common Shares, pursuant to the offerings of Common Shares on May 15, 1996, May 21, 1996 and
    May 29, 1996 (collectively the "May 1996 Offerings"). The net price per common share to the Company ranged between $30.50 and
    $30.75, less offering expenses. The offering proceeds are contributed by the Company to the Operating Partnership in return for
    an increased ownership percentage. As a result, the net offering proceeds are allocated between General Partner and Limited
    Partners (only to the extent represented by OP Units) to account for the change in their respective percentage ownership of the
    underlying equity of the Operating Partnership.

     the actual 30-day LIBOR rate in effect on the date of each borrowing plus a
     175 basis point spread from November 15, 1994 through October 6, 1995 and a
     137.5 basis point spread from October 7, 1995 through May 23, 1996. A 100
     basis point move up or down in the rate represents an increase or decrease
     in interest expense of approximately $0.375 million. For the acquisition of
     the 1996 Probable Properties, the Operating Partnership has assumed
     borrowings of an additional $88 million on May 23, 1996.

(H)  The interest rate on the Operating Partnership's line of credit is based on
     the actual 30-day LIBOR rate in effect on the date of each borrowing plus a
     175 basis point spread from November 15, 1994 through October 6, 1995 and a
     137.5 basis point spread from October 7, 1995 through May 23, 1996. A 100
     basis point move up or down in the rate represents an increase or decrease
     in interest expense of approximately $0.375 million. For the acquisition of
     the 1996 Probable Properties, the Operating Partnership has assumed
     borrowings of an additional $88 million on May 23, 1996.

                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS


The Partners of
ERP Operating Limited Partnership

     We have audited the accompanying combined statement of revenue and certain
expenses for certain residential properties (the "1996 Acquired Properties and
Probable Properties") described in Note 2 for the year ended December 31, 1995.
The combined statement of revenue and certain expenses is the responsibility of
the managements of the 1996 Acquired Properties and Probable Properties.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on the combined statement of revenue and
certain expenses based on our audit.

     We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the combined statement of revenue and certain
expenses is free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the combined
statement of revenue and certain expenses.  An audit also includes assessing the
basis of accounting principles used and the significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the combined
statement of revenue and certain expenses.  We believe that our audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

     The accompanying combined statement of revenue and certain expenses was
prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission for inclusion in ERP Operating Limited
Partnership's Current Report on Form 8-K as described in Note 1, and is not
intended to be a complete presentation of the 1996 Acquired Properties and
Probable Properties' revenues and expenses.

     In our opinion, the combined statement of revenue and certain expenses
referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the combined
revenue and certain expenses described in Note 1 of the 1996 Acquired Properties
and Probable Properties for the year ended December 31, 1995, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

                         NOTES TO COMBINED STATEMENTS
                        OF REVENUE AND CERTAIN EXPENSES

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

   The accompanying combined statement of revenue and certain expenses for the
   year ended December 31, 1995 and the three months ended March 31, 1996
   (unaudited) were prepared for purposes of complying with the rules and
   regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The accompanying
   financial statements are not representative of the actual operations of the
   1996 Acquired Properties and Probable Properties for the periods presented as
   certain expenses, which may not be comparable to the expenses to be incurred
   by the Operating Partnership in the proposed future operations of the
   properties, have been excluded. Expenses excluded consist of interest,
   depreciation and amortization, professional fees and other costs not directly
   related to the future operations of the properties.

   In preparation of the Operating Partnership's Combined Statements of Revenue
   and Certain Expenses in conformity with generally accepted accounting
   principles, management makes estimates and assumptions that effect the
   reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
   results could differ from these estimates.

   Rental income attributable to residential leases is recorded when due from
   tenants, generally on a straight line basis.

   The 1996 Acquired Properties and Probable Properties had or have management
   agreements with various unaffiliated management companies through the
   acquisition dates to maintain and manage the operations of the apartment
   complexes. Management fees were or are based on a range of 3% to 5% of gross
   receipts. Upon acquisition of the properties by the Operating Partnership,
   such management contracts were or will be cancelled at which time the
   Operating Partnership began or will begin to manage the properties.

Note 2 - Description of Properties

   The following properties are included in the combined statements of revenue
   and certain expenses:
