TIAA REAL ESTATE ACCOUNT
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
Note 1--Organization
The TIAA Real Estate Account ("Account") is a segregated investment account of
Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America ("TIAA") and was
established by resolution of TIAA's Board of Trustees on February 22, 1995,
under the insurance laws of the State of New York, for the purpose of funding
variable annuity contracts issued by TIAA. Teachers REA, Inc., a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Account, began operations in July 1996 and holds one property
in Virginia. Light Street Partners, L.P., a partnership in which the Account
holds a 90% interest, began operations in March 1997 and holds eight office
buildings throughout the United States.
The Account commenced operations on July 3, 1995 with a $100,000,000 seed money
investment by TIAA. TIAA purchased 1,000,000 Accumulation Units in the Account
and such Units share in the prorata investment experience of the Account and are
subject to the same valuation procedures and expense deductions as all other
Accumulation Units of the Account. The initial registration statement of the
Account filed by TIAA with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission")
under the Securities Act of 1933 became effective on October 2, 1995. The
Account began to offer Accumulation Units and Annuity Units to participants
other than TIAA on October 2, and November 1, 1995, respectively. In August
1996, the Account's net assets first reached $200 million and, as required under
a five year repayment schedule approved by the New York State Insurance
Department, TIAA began to redeem its seed money Accumulation Units in monthly
installments beginning in September 1996. These withdrawals are made at
prevailing daily net asset values and are reflected in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements. At September 30, 1997, TIAA retained 783,333
Accumulation Units, with a total value of $93,460,009.
The investment objective of the Account is a favorable long-term rate of return
primarily through rental income and capital appreciation from real estate
investments owned by the Account. The Account also invests in publicly-traded
securities and other instruments to maintain adequate liquidity for operating
expenses and capital expenditures and to make benefit payments.
TIAA employees, under the direction of TIAA's Board of Trustees and its
Investment Committee, manage the investment of the Account's assets pursuant to
investment management procedures adopted by TIAA for the Account. TIAA's
investment management decisions for the Account are subject to review by the
Account's independent fiduciary, Institutional Property Consultants, Inc. TIAA
also provides all portfolio accounting and related services for the Account.
TIAA-CREF Individual & Institutional Services, Inc. ("Services"), a subsidiary
of TIAA, which is registered with the Commission as a broker-dealer and is a
member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., provides
administrative and distribution services pursuant to a Distribution and
Administrative Services Agreement with the Account.
Note 2--Significant Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements may require management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income,
expenses and related disclosures. Actual results may differ from those
estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies
followed by the Account, which are in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
Basis of Presentation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements
include the Account, Teachers REA, Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiary, and Light
Street Partners, L.P., in which the Account holds a 90% interest. The 10%
minority interest in Light Street Partners, L.P. is reflected separately in the
accompanying financial statements. All significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

<PAGE>
Note 2--Significant Accounting Policies - (Continued)
Valuation of Real Estate Properties: Investments in real estate properties are
stated at fair value, as determined in accordance with procedures approved by
the Investment Committee of the Board of Trustees and in accordance with the
responsibilities of the Board as a whole; accordingly, the Account does not
record depreciation. Fair value for real estate properties is defined as the
most probable price for which a property will sell in a competitive market under
all conditions requisite to a fair sale. Determination of fair value involves
subjective judgement because the actual market value of real estate can be
determined only by negotiation between the parties in a sales transaction. Real
estate properties owned by the Account are initially valued at their respective
purchase prices (including acquisition costs). Subsequently, independent
appraisers value each real estate property at least once a year. The independent
fiduciary must approve all independent appraisers that the Account uses. The
independent fiduciary can also require additional appraisals if it believes that
a property's value has changed materially or otherwise to assure that the
Account is valued correctly. TIAA performs a valuation review of each real
estate property on a quarterly basis and updates the property value if it
believes that the value of the property has changed since the previous valuation
review or appraisal. The independent fiduciary reviews and approves any such
valuation adjustments which exceed certain prescribed limits. TIAA continues to
use the revised value to calculate the Account's net asset value until the next
valuation review or appraisal.
Valuation of Marketable Securities: Equity securities listed or traded on any
United States national securities exchange are valued at the last sales price as
of the close of the principal securities exchange on which such securities are
traded or, if there is no sale, at the mean of the last bid and asked prices.
Short-term money market instruments are stated at market value. Portfolio
securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at
fair value as determined in good faith under the direction of the Investment
Committee of the Board of Trustees and in accordance with the responsibilities
of the Board as a whole.
Accounting for Investments: Real estate transactions are accounted for as of the
date on which the purchase or sale transactions for the real estate properties
close (settlement date). Rent from real estate properties consists of all
amounts earned under tenant operating leases, including base rent, recoveries of
real estate taxes and other expenses and charges for miscellaneous services
provided to tenants. Rental income is recognized in accordance with the billing
terms of the lease agreements. The Account bears the direct expenses of the real
estate properties owned. These expenses include, but are not limited to, fees to
local property management companies, property taxes, utilities, maintenance,
repairs, insurance and other operating and administrative costs. An estimate of
the net operating income earned from each real estate property is accrued by the
Account on a daily basis and such estimates are adjusted as soon as actual
operating results are determined. Realized gains and losses on real estate
transactions are accounted for under the specific identification method.
Securities transactions are accounted for as of the date the securities are
purchased or sold (trade date). Interest income is recorded as earned and, for
short-term money market instruments, includes accrual of discount and
amortization of premium. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Realized gains and losses on securities transactions are accounted for on the
average cost basis.
Federal Income Taxes: Based on provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, no
federal income taxes are attributable to the net investment experience of the
Account.
8
<PAGE>
Note 3--Management Agreements
Under established management agreements, various services necessary for the
operation of the Account are provided, at cost, by TIAA and Services. TIAA
provides investment management services for the Account, while distribution and
administrative services are provided by Services in accordance with a
Distribution and Administrative Services Agreement between the Account and
Services. TIAA also provides a liquidity guarantee to the Account, for a fee, to
ensure that sufficient funds are available to meet participant transfer and cash
withdrawal requests in the event that the Account's cash flows and liquid
investments are insufficient to fund such requests. TIAA also receives a fee for
assuming certain mortality and expense risks.
Fee payments are made from the Account on a daily basis to TIAA and Services
according to formulas established each year with the objective of keeping the
fees as close as possible to the Account's actual expenses. Any differences
between actual expenses and daily charges are adjusted quarterly.
Note 4--Real Estate Properties
Had the Account's real estate properties which were purchased during the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 been acquired at the beginning of the period
(January 1, 1997), rental income and real estate property level expenses and
taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 would have increased by
approximately $10,141,000 and $3,179,000 respectively. In addition, interest
income for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 would have decreased by
approximately $3,763,000. Accordingly, the total proforma effect on the
Account's net investment income for the nine months ended September 30, 1997
would have been an increase of approximately $3,199,000, if the real estate
properties acquired during the nine months ended September 30, 1997 had been
acquired at the beginning of the period.
Note 5--Leases
The Account's real estate properties are leased to tenants under operating lease
agreements which expire on various dates through 2021. Aggregate minimum annual
rentals for the properties owned, excluding short-term residential leases, are
as follows:
Years Ending
December 31,
------------
1997 $ 28,564,000
1998 35,180,000
1999 30,966,000
2000 28,160,000
2001 22,805,000
Thereafter 101,826,000
-----------
Total $247,501,000
============
Certain leases provide for additional rental amounts based upon the recovery of
actual operating expenses in excess of specified base amounts.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
The TIAA Real Estate Account commenced operations on July 3, 1995 and
interests in the Account were first publicly offered to participants on October
2, 1995.
Through September 30, 1997, the Account had acquired a total of 28 real
estate properties, including eight industrial properties, six apartment
complexes, five neighborhood shopping centers and nine office properties. As of
September 30, 1997, these 28 properties represented 56.6% of the Account's total
investment portfolio. The Account continues to pursue suitable property
acquisitions, and is currently in various stages of negotiations with a number
of prospective sellers. While attractive acquisition prospects are available in
the current market, significant competition exists for the most desirable
properties.
As of September 30, 1997, the Account also held investments in
short-term obligations, including U.S. government agencies, representing 28.5%
of the portfolio, real estate investment trusts (REITs), representing 13.9% of
the portfolio, and corporate bonds, representing 1.0% of the portfolio.
The Account owns a 90% interest in a joint venture which owns eight
office buildings throughout the U.S. The Account's consolidated financial
statements and all of the Account's financial data discussed in this report
reflect 100% of the value of the joint venture's assets. The 10% interest of the
other partner in the joint venture is reflected as a minority interest in the
Account's statement of assets and liabilities.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Nine Months Ended September 30, 1997 Compared to
Nine Months Ended September 30, 1996
The Account's total net return was 7.38% for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 and 5.89% for the same period in 1996. The Account's net
investment income, after deduction of all expenses, was $30,298,741 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 and $8,016,527 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996, a 278% increase. This increase was the result of a growing
base of net assets and a greater concentration of real estate holdings from
September 30, 1996 to September 30, 1997. Net assets increased 220% during that
period. In addition, the Account had net realized and unrealized gains on
investments of $12,586,528 and $1,421,672 for the nine months ended September
30, 1997 and September 30, 1996, respectively. This increase was largely due to
an increase of $4,502,488 in the value of the Account's real estate holdings and
$7,145,013 in the value of its marketable securities.
The Account's real estate holdings generated approximately 64% and 57%
of the Account's total investment income (before deducting Account level
expenses) during the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and September 30,
1996, respectively. The remaining portion of the Account's total investment
income was generated by investments in marketable securities.
Gross real estate rental income was $29,954,582 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 and $7,059,866 for the same period in 1996. As of
September 30, 1996, the Account owned ten properties, and, as of September 30,
1997, the Account owned 28 properties. This increase in the number of properties
owned by the Account was a major factor in the higher real estate income for the
first nine months of 1997 over the same period of the previous year. Interest
income on the Account's short- and intermediate-term investments
15
<PAGE>
for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and September 30, 1996 totaled
$9,057,943 and $3,539,448, respectively. This increase in interest income is due
primarily to the increased size of the Account's short-term investment holdings.
Dividend income on the Account's investment in REITs totaled $2,639,569 and
$157,793, respectively, for the same periods. REITs represented 13.9% of the
Account investments as of September 30, 1997 and 3.2% as of September 30, 1996.
This increased percentage and the general growth in the Account's assets
accounted for the increased dividend income for first nine months of 1997, as
compared with the same period in 1996.
Total property level expenses for the nine months ended September 30,
1997 were $8,922,648, of which $2,883,175 was attributable to real estate taxes
and $6,039,473 represented operating expenses. Total property level expenses for
the nine months ended September 30, 1996 were $2,107,089 of which $649,155 was
attributable to real estate taxes and $1,457,934 was attributable to operating
expenses. The increase in property level expenses during the first nine months
of 1997 reflected the increased number of properties in the Account.
The Account also incurred expenses for the nine months ended September
30, 1997 and 1996 of $1,114,884 and $312,218, respectively, for investment
advisory services, $937,738 and $281,045, respectively, for administrative and
distribution services and $378,083 and $40,228, respectively, for mortality and
expense risk charges and liquidity guarantee charges. Such expenses increased as
a result of the larger net asset base of the Account for the first nine months
of 1997 over the first nine months of 1996.
Three Months Ended September 30, 1997 Compared to
Three Months Ended September 30, 1996.
The Account's total net return was 3.54% for the three months ended
September 30, 1997 and 2.07% for the same period in 1996. The Account's net
investment income, after deduction of all expenses, was $12,736,893 for the
three months ended September 30, 1997 and $3,295,672 for the three months ended
September 30, 1996, a 286% increase. This increase was the result of a growing
base of net assets from September 30, 1996 to September 30, 1997. Net assets
increased 220% during that period. In addition, the Account had net realized and
unrealized gains on investments of $10,733,260 and $732,787 for the three months
ended September 30, 1997 and September 30, 1996, respectively.
The Account's real estate holdings generated approximately 71% and 62%
of the Account's total investment income (before deducting Account level
expenses) during the three months ended September 30, 1997 and September 30,
1996, respectively. The remaining portion of the Account's total investment
income was generated by investments in marketable securities.
Gross real estate rental income was $13,625,915 for the three months
ended September 30, 1997 and $3,126,286 for the same period in 1996. The
increase in rental income was due primarily to the increase in the number of
properties owned by the Account. Interest income on the Account's short-and
intermediate-term investments for the three months ended September 30, 1997 and
September 30, 1996 totaled $2,594,221 and $1,255,909, respectively. This
increase in interest income is due primarily to the increased size of the
Account's short-term investment holdings. Dividend income on the Account's
investment in REITs totaled $1,328,459 and $96,968, respectively, for the same
periods. This increase in dividend income was due to the increased level of the
Account's investment in REITs and the general growth in the Account's assets.
Total property level expenses for the three months ended September 30,
1997 were $3,863,063, of which $1,121,839 was attributable to real estate taxes
and $2,741,224 represented operating expenses. Total property level expenses for
the three months ended September 30, 1997 were $872,796, of which $243,750 was
attributable to real estate taxes and $629,046 was attributable to operating
expenses. Property level
16
<PAGE>
expenses increased in the three month period ended September 30, 1997 as a
result of the increased number of properties in the Account.
The Account incurred expenses for the three months ended September 30,
1997 and 1996 of $454,451 and $131,630, respectively, for investment advisory
services, $352,340 and $157,734, respectively, for administrative and
distribution services and $141,848 and $21,331, respectively, for mortality and
expense risk charges and liquidity guarantee charges. Such expenses increased as
a result of the larger net asset base of the Account for the third quarter of
1997 over the third quarter of 1996.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Since September 16, 1996, TIAA has been redeeming the accumulation
units related to its $100 million seed money investment in the Account, in
accordance with a five-year repayment schedule approved by the New York
Insurance Department (NYID). As of September 30, 1997, the Account had redeemed
216,667 accumulation units at prevailing daily unit values, amounting to
$24,427,734 in total redemption payments to TIAA. TIAA retained 783,333 units at
September 30, 1997 with a total value of $93,460,009. Because the Account's
assets have been growing rapidly, the Account, with NYID approval, recently
modified the seed money redemption schedule by increasing the Account's monthly
redemption payments to TIAA to 25% of the Account's prior months' net asset
growth (with no less than 16,666.67 and no more than 100,000 units to be
redeemed per month).
For the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, the Account
earned $30,298,741 and $8,016,527, respectively, in net investment income.
During those same nine month periods in 1997 and 1996, the Account received
$32,029,340 and $5,459,743, respectively, in premiums and $268,984,529 and
$82,801,886, respectively, in net participant transfers from other TIAA and CREF
accounts. Real estate properties costing $216,868,912 and $54,381,575 were
purchased during the first nine months of 1997 and 1996, respectively. At
September 30, 1997 and September 30, 1996, the Account's liquid assets (i.e.,
its cash, REITs, short- and intermediate-term investments, and government
securities) had a value of $305,841,926 and $117,211,519, respectively. It is
anticipated that much of the Account's liquid assets as of September 30, 1997,
exclusive of the REITs, will be used by the Account to purchase additional
suitable real estate properties. The remaining liquid assets, exclusive of the
REITs, will continue to be available to meet expense needs and redemption
requests (e.g., cash withdrawals or transfers).
If the Account's liquid assets and its cash flow from operating
activities and participant transactions are not sufficient to meet its cash
needs, including redemption requests, TIAA's general account will purchase
liquidity units in accordance with TIAA's liquidity guarantee to the Account.
