Ladies and Gentlemen:
This opinion is being delivered to you in connection with your Registration
Statement on Form N-lA under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, under which
you have registered an indefinite number of shares of beneficial interest
pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. In
particular, this opinion relates to the notice which you are filing under Rule
24f-2 ("Rule 24f-2 Notice") which makes definite in number the 74,182 shares of
beneficial interest which you sold in the year ended March 31, 1996 (the
"Shares") (25,739 shares of GrandView REIT Index Fund, 18,815 shares of
GrandView Realty Growth Fund, 6,493 shares of GrandView Residential Realty
Income Fund, 8,660 shares of GrandView Retail Realty Income Fund, and 14,475
shares of GrandView Healthcare Realty Income Fund.)
We have made such inquiry of your officers and trustees and have examined such
corporate documents, records and certificates and other documents and such
questions of law as we have deemed necessary for the purposes of this opinion.
In rendering this opinion, we have relied, with your approval, as to all
questions of fact material to this opinion, upon certificates of public
officials and of your officers and have assumed, with your approval, that the
signatures on all documents examined by us are genuine, which facts we have not
independently verified.
Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Shares
were legally and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
With respect to the opinion stated above, we wish to point out that the
shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust may, under some circumstances, be
subject to assessment at the instance of creditors to pay the obligations of
such trust in the event that its assets are insufficient for the purpose.
We hereby consent to your attaching this opinion to the Rule 24f-2 Notice and
making it a part thereof. In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that
we come within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7
of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder.
Very truly yours,
POYNER & SPRUILL, L.L.P.
