                 STARRETT HOUSING CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


    The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Starrett Housing
Corporation and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and
with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
In the opinion of the management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included.  The consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months
ended March 31, 1994 and 1993 are unaudited and are subject to year-end audit
and adjustments.  The results of operations for the interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the fiscal year.  For
comparability purposes, certain 1993 amounts have been reclassified to conform
with the 1994 classifications.  For further information, refer to the
consolidated financial statements and footnotes included thereto in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1993.

         MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
                                   OPERATIONS
            COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1994 AND 1993


    During the three months ended March 31, 1994 the Company had income from
operations of $1,300,000 as compared with $703,000 in 1993, and net income of
$695,000 or $.11 a share for the three months ended March 31, 1994 as compared
with $324,000 or $.05 a share for the similar period in 1993.  Earnings per
share were based on average shares outstanding of 6,261,000 and 6,399,000 in
1994 and 1993, respectively.

    The increase in income was primarily attributable to Levitt Corporation.
Levitt's backlog increased from $32,320,000 or 232 units at December 31, 1993
to $79,527,000 or 528 units at March 31, 1994.  Levitt's sales (new contracts)
during the three months ended March 31, 1994 increased to $57,353,000 or 371
units from $32,887,000 or 224 units for the similar period in 1993.  The March
31, 1994 backlog and sales for the three months ended March 31, 1994 include
$9,348,000 and 60 units relating to a joint venture in which Levitt has a 50%
interest.  Levitt's sales increased in both its Puerto Rico and Florida
regions.

    Levitt's gross profit margin increased in 1994 compared with 1993.  The
increase is due to higher selling prices and a greater proportion of houses
delivered in the Puerto Rico region, where gross profits are higher as compared
to the domestic region.  The Company anticipates that sales in Florida during
1994, which have been made at increased profit margins, will be reflected in
income during the fall of 1994.

    The Company's management and development division reported a small profit
and its construction division reported a small loss for the quarter ended March
31, 1994.

    The Company has three projects located on the Upper West Side of Manhattan,
in which it has a 50% residual partnership interest, with respect to which the
Company has made application for incentives under the Low Income Housing
Preservation and Resident Homeownership Act ("LIHPRHA").  On April 28, 1993,
HUD provided the Partnership with a Value Determination Letter for the first of
its projects establishing a substantial value for the project, and in August
and October 1993 HUD provided technical comments on the Plan of Action
necessary to complete the processing.  HUD has notified the Company that it is
reversing its prior Value Determination and consequently will require the
Partnership to reprocess the project, using a different formula for valuation,
presently being developed by HUD.  Under HUD's revised formula, the project may
have a substantially diminished value.  The Company disagrees with the reversal
of HUD's prior Value Determination position, has so notified HUD and
discussions are in process regarding this matter.  In light of the foregoing,
the amount of cash proceeds and profits, if any, the Company could receive for
its 50% residual interest in the project as well as the time





                                       9

required to complete the processing is uncertain.  The revised HUD position
also affects processing under LIHPRHA for the two similar projects in which the
Company owns a 50% residual interest located on the Upper West Side of
Manhattan.  If sustained, the revised HUD position will affect all New York
projects of a similar nature.
