NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
October 31, 1994



NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and should be read in conjunction
with the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31,
1994, together with the portions of the company's 1994 Annual Report to
shareholders incorporated therein by reference.  In the opinion of management,
all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments only) have been made
which are necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim period
presented herein.

NOTE B - NET INCOME PER SHARE

     Primary net income per share is based upon the average number of shares
outstanding during the periods, increased for the assumed exercise of vested,
in-the-money stock options.

NOTE C - LITIGATION

     The company, because of the nature of its business, is sometimes subject to
various threatened or filed legal claims, including certain environmental
actions.  While it is not feasible to predict or determine the ultimate outcome
of these matters, in the opinion of management, none of these actions,
individually or in the aggregate, will have a material effect on the company's
results of operations, cash flows, liquidity or financial position.

NOTE D - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     On November 22, 1994, the Directors declared a dividend of $.60 per share,
payable December 22, 1994 to shareholders of record December 5, 1994.

     Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations includes a discussion of the purchase of seven garden apartment
communities, aggregating 1,301 units, in Tucson, Arizona from The Schomac Group.
Subsequent to October 31, 1994,  BRE acquired  two more of the seven Schomac
apartment communities.  To date, six of the seven have been purchased.

The company's cash and short-term investments totaled $10,110,000 at October 31,
1994, down from $28,938,000 at July 31, 1994.

In August 1994, BRE entered into an agreement to acquire seven garden apartment
communities, aggregating 1,301 units, in Tucson, Arizona from the Schomac Group,
a privately held apartment and self-storage developer headquartered in Tucson
and not affiliated with BRE.  The four properties purchased during the quarter

</TABLE>

The mortgages assumed mature in 2000, with aggregate balloon payments of
$13,939,000 due at that time.  Depending on market conditions at maturity, the
company may choose, among other things, to renegotiate the terms with the
existing lenders, refinance the property with other lenders or sell assets to
repay the balloon amounts.

Concurrent with the purchase of these apartment communities, BRE also funded a
$1,500,000, one-year second mortgage loan, bearing interest at 10%, secured by
the Mission Heights Apartments in Tucson, Arizona, to entities affiliated with
the seller.  Provided that no event of default has occurred, the borrower may
request a one-year extension, during which the interest rate rises to 11%, and a
second one-year extension, during which the interest rate rises to 12%.

Construction was also completed of a 116-unit expansion of the Scottsdale Cove
Apartments in Scottsdale, Arizona. The total cost of the expansion was
$5,884,000, $1,252,000 of which was invested during the quarter ended October
31, 1994.  Final retentions aggregating approximately $440,000 (and included in
the $5,884,000) will be disbursed in November and December as punch-list items
are completed.

An additional $1,490,000 was invested during the quarter in tenant improvements
and leasing commissions at shopping centers, warehouse and light industrial
buildings.


                                        6
<PAGE>

Cash commitments at October 31, 1994 include the December 22, 1994 dividend
payment of approximately $6,555,000.  Following the close of the quarter, BRE
completed the purchase of two additional Schomac apartment communities, Fountain
Plaza and Hacienda del Rio.  The seventh property, Camino Seco Village, is
expected to be acquired by the close of the quarter ending January 31, 1995.
Subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, BRE will also make an additional
$1,500,000 mortgage loan to entities affiliated with the seller.

Subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, the company has committed to
purchase Arcadia Cove, a 432 unit apartment community to be developed in
Phoenix, Arizona.  Construction is expected to begin in January 1995, with
completion to follow in 14 months.  The projected development cost is
$24,300,000.

In addition to cash and short-term investments, the company has available bank
lines of credit totaling $30,000,000.  There were no borrowings under those
lines of credit at October 31, 1994.  The company expects to use a portion of
the lines of credit to fund the cash portion of the purchase price for the
Arizona acquisitions described above.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net income for the quarter ended October 31, 1994 was $5,457,000 ($.50 per
share), compared to $4,993,000 ($.46 per share) for the same quarter last year.
Funds from operations totaled $7,241,000 for the quarter ended October 31, 1994,
up 10% from the same period last year.  Funds from operations is defined as net
income (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles),
excluding gains (or losses) from debt restructuring and sales of property, plus
depreciation and amortization.

Leasing has improved at The Hub Shopping Center, with the opening of 11 new
stores in the past several months.  Both leasing and occupancy at The Hub are
now 95%, up from 88% at July 31, 1994.

At El Camino Shopping Center, occupancy is 89%, the same as at July 31, 1994.
Soil stabilization and repairs of structurally damaged buildings are underway
following the January 17, 1994 Northridge earthquake.  The repairs are estimated
to take 8 - 10 months, with most of the related costs covered by earthquake
insurance.  In the industrial segment of the portfolio, two properties are
currently vacant and being marketed to prospective tenants:  the 358,000 square
foot warehouse in Pomona, California and the 50,000 square foot Irvine Spectrum
building in Irvine, California.

At October 31, 1994, overall occupancy levels by class of property were as
follows:

               PROPERTY TYPE               OVERALL OCCUPANCY
               ----------------------------------------------
               Apartment Communities                      95%
               Shopping Centers                           95
               Other                                      57
                                                          --
                    WEIGHTED AVERAGE                      90%
                                                          --
                                                          --


                                        7
<PAGE>

The weighted average occupancy is calculated by multiplying the occupancy for
each property by its square footage and dividing by the total square footage in
the portfolio.

REVENUE

Rental income rose 16% for the October 31, 1994 quarter from the comparable
period last year.  Apartments acquired since August 1, 1993 generated gross
rents of $2,300,000 for the quarter while apartments owned for two or more years
contributed $210,000 in higher revenue (up 3%).

As part of a financial settlement received in July 1994 from the former tenant
at Pomona Warehouse, BRE recorded $258,000 of rent during the quarter ended
October 31, 1994. No additional revenue will be recorded until the property is
leased.  In addition, the tenant at Oak Creek I, who also occupies a portion of
Oak Creek II, was  recapitalized, enabling it to pay BRE $175,000 of back rent
and reimbursement for other charges.

Revenues continue to be constrained by the two vacant commercial properties,
Pomona Warehouse and Irvine Spectrum. There can be no assurance that additional
vacancies will not occur.

Interest income on short-term investments increased $34,000 from the comparable
quarter last year as a result of rising interest rates, despite lower average
invested balances as cash was used to purchase apartments.

EXPENSES

Operating expenses of equity investments increased 4% from the year earlier
period, primarily due to expenses on the new apartment acquisitions.  The two
vacant commercial properties, Pomona Warehouse and Irvine Spectrum, had no
expense for real estate taxes during either the quarter ended October 31, 1993
or October 31, 1994, because the former tenants had reimbursed the company for
the real estate taxes through December 31, 1994.  Starting January 1, 1995, the
annual cost for real estate taxes is estimated to be $164,000 (Pomona Warehouse)
and $33,000 (Irvine Spectrum).  In addition, BRE is paying for maintenance
costs, such as security and landscaping, and insurance.

Interest expense was up $444,000 from the comparable quarter last year,
reflecting the new mortgage loans on Selby Ranch, Mira Mesa (Cimmaron, Hacienda
and Westpark), Colonia del Rio, Oracle Village and SpringHill Apartments.

General and administrative expenses include $437,000 of legal costs paid to
reach an out-of-court settlement with Big V Supermarkets, Inc. and Somers
Development Corporation regarding alleged chemical contamination of the soil and
ground water underlying the Baldwin Place Shopping Center in Somers, New York.
In addition to the legal costs which have been expensed, BRE paid $207,000 as
its share of the settlement.  The $207,000 is being carried in accounts
receivable.  BRE is seeking to recover the settlement amount and the legal costs
from the approximately 30 insurance companies which provided coverage to BRE at
various times throughout BRE's 1974-1983 ownership of the land underlying
Baldwin Place.

GAIN ON SALES

No gain on sales of investments was recorded during the quarter ended October
31, 1994.  The company has recorded in its financial statements gains totaling
$59,784,000 which have been deferred for tax purposes since the company's 1970
inception through October 31, 1994.

DIVIDENDS

The $.60 per share dividend for the quarter ended October 31, 1994, was
approximately 91% of funds from operations.  The dividend exceeded reportable
net income.
