NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
April 30, 1995


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 periods
presented herein.

NOTE B - NET INCOME PER SHARE

     Primary net income per share is based upon the weighted 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 - COMMITMENTS

     BRE has entered into a development and option agreement with Picerne
Development Corporation (Picerne), an Arizona corporation, which is a wholly
owned subsidiary of Picerne Investment Corporation, a privately held apartment
developer headquartered in Rhode Island. Picerne is developing Arcadia Cove, a
432-unit apartment complex in Phoenix, Arizona. The development is being
financed through two loans made by Wells Fargo Bank. The two loans are for
$4,226,000 (standing loan) and $19,125,000 (construction loan), for a total of
$23,351,000. BRE has guaranteed repayment of the loans and has the right to
acquire the property at or before completion of the construction, which is
currently expected in mid-1996. In the meantime, BRE is making monthly option
payments to Picerne of $60,000 (February 1995- July 1995) and $134,000 (August
1995- March 1996). BRE's purchase commitment to Picerne  upon completion is
$22,396,000, plus the option payments and interest cost through the date of
purchase.

     In addition, BRE has committed to purchase two phases of Newport Landing
Apartments, in Glendale, Arizona. Phase I, which includes 240 units constructed
in 1987, is scheduled for purchase in July 1995, for $9,235,000. Phase II is
also planned to include 240 units, with construction expected to begin during
the summer of 1995 and be completed 12 months

                                        5

thereafter. Picerne, which owns Phase I, will be developing Phase II for BRE.
BRE's cost for Phase II is projected to be $12,784,000.

NOTE E - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     On May 22, 1995, the Directors declared a dividend of $.63 per share,
payable June 22, 1995 to shareholders of record June 2, 1995.

     On June 6, 1995, the company announced the election of Frank C. McDowell
as president and chief executive officer and as a director.  The company's
former president and chief executive officer, Arthur G. von Thaden, became
chairman of the board of directors of the company.

(1)       The cash investment in Hacienda del Rio included $3,233,000 in
          proceeds from a tax-deferred exchange for Marymoor Warehouse, in
          Redmond, Washington.
</TABLE>

The seventh property, Camino Seco Village, is expected to be acquired during the
quarter ended July 31, 1995, as a tax-deferred exchange for 515 Ellis. 515 Ellis
was sold during the quarter ended April 30, 1995, and the proceeds were placed
in escrow for a tax-deferred exchange.

The mortgages on Fountain Plaza and Hacienda del Rio are fully amortizing, with
final maturities in 2028. The three other mortgages assumed mature in the year
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
properties with other lenders or sell assets to repay the balloon amounts.

In October 1994, 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

                                        7

<PAGE>

interest rate rises to 11%, and a second one-year extension, during which the
interest rate rises to 12%.

During the nine months ended April 30, 1995, construction was completed of a
116-unit expansion of the Scottsdale Cove Apartments in Scottsdale, Arizona. The
total cost of the expansion was $6,138,000, $1,687,000 of which was invested
during the nine months ended April 30, 1995.

As discussed further in Results of  Operations, BRE has increased occupancy at
both The Hub and El Camino shopping centers. Space preparation and  improvements
for new tenants cost $2,079,000 at The Hub and $387,000 at El Camino. In
addition, BRE invested $749,000 for a new tenant at 515 Ellis, which property
was subsequently sold for a reportable net gain of $1,120,000.

Cash commitments at April 30, 1995 include the June 22, 1995 dividend payment of
approximately $6,891,000 and the $9,235,000 purchase price for the first phase
of the Newport Landing Apartments (scheduled to close by July 31, 1995). The
acquisition may be funded through a tax-deferred exchange for the Pomona
Warehouse Property or by a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under the
existing lines of credit.

In addition, as more fully discussed in Note D of Notes to Financial Statements,
BRE plans to acquire Arcadia Cove, a 432-unit apartment community currently
under development, and the  second phase of Newport Landing, in the fourth
quarter of fiscal 1996. The aggregate purchase price for these properties is
approximately $36,657,000 (including, in the case of Arcadia Cove, option
payments made by the company).

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 April 30, 1995. Management believes that its liquidity and
financial resources are sufficient to meet anticipated cash requirements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net income for the quarter and nine months ended April 30, 1995 was $4,913,000
($.45 per share) and $17,562,000 ($1.61 per share), respectively, compared to
$5,412,000 ($.50 per share) and $16,037,000 ($1.47 per share) for the same
periods last year. Included in the April 30, 1995 results were net gains on
sales of investments of $1,120,000 ($.10 per share) and $2,370,000 ($.22 per
share) for the quarter and nine months, compared to $153,000 ($.01 per share)
for the nine months last year. In addition, the quarter and nine months ended
April 30, 1995 include a provision for possible investment losses of $2,000,000
($.18 per share).

Funds from operations totaled $7,751,000 and $22,890,000 for the quarter and
nine months ended April 30, 1995, up 9% and 10% from the comparable periods last
year.  Funds from operations is defined as net income (computed in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles), excluding gains (or losses) from

Leasing has improved at The Hub Shopping Center, with the opening of 8 new
stores during the past year.  Both leasing and occupancy at The Hub are now 95%,
up from 89% at July 31, 1994. New tenants include Trader Joe's, which operates
62 specialty food markets, Old Navy (part of The Gap), Taco Bell, Styles for
Less and Country Harvest Buffet. At El Camino Shopping Center, occupancy is 92%,
up from 89% at July 31, 1994. Soil stabilization and repairs of structurally
damaged buildings continue as a result of the January 17, 1994 Northridge
earthquake. The repairs are estimated to be completed by July 1995, with most of
the costs covered by earthquake insurance. Taken together, the net operating
income at the two shopping centers improved by approximately 19% during the nine
months ended April 30, 1995 over the comparable period last year, which included
expenses for roof replacements of $157,000 at The Hub and $100,000 at El Camino.
In accordance with industry practices, commencing August 1, 1994, roof
replacements for all properties (which had previously been expensed) are
capitalized and depreciated over the expected useful life. Roof repairs continue
to be expensed.

 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. Preliminary sale negotiations are underway on Pomona
Warehouse, although there can be no assurance that a sale will be effected. As
discussed below, the carrying value of the Pomona Warehouse was reduced by
$1,750,000  during the third quarter.

At April 30, 1995, overall occupancy levels by class of property were as
follows:


           PROPERTY TYPE                               OVERALL OCCUPANCY

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, comprising approximately 96% of total revenue, rose 21% for the
quarter and 19% for the nine months ended April 30, 1995, respectively, from the
comparable periods last year.  Apartments acquired since August 1, 1993
generated gross rents of $3,695,000 and $9,574,000 for the quarter and nine
months, up from $1,224,000 and $2,384,000 for the comparable periods last year.
Apartments owned for two or more years contributed $155,000 and $573,000,
respectively, in higher revenue (up 2%).

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 first quarter
ended October 31, 1994. No additional rental revenue will be recorded until the
property is leased.  Also during the first quarter ended October 31, 1994, 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. During the quarter ended April 30, 1995, BRE reached
agreement with the former tenant at the Irvine Spectrum property. As a result of
the settlement, BRE received reimbursement for the calendar 1995 real estate
taxes, a portion of BRE's legal expenses and $121,000 of back rent.

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.

EXPENSES

Operating expenses of equity investments increased 23% and 13% for the quarter
and nine months ended April 30, 1995 from the year-earlier periods, primarily
due to expenses on the new apartment acquisitions. On January 17, 1995, a
combination of heavy rains, high winds and debris resulted in the collapse of an
approximately 1,200 square foot section of the roof (out of a total 85,680
square feet) at 525 Almanor. The damage has been repaired, for a total estimated
cost of $375,000.  Most of this cost is expected to  be recovered through
property insurance. BRE has expensed $100,000 as the amount of the deductible
under its property insurance coverage.

The two vacant commercial properties, Pomona Warehouse and Irvine Spectrum, had
no expense for real estate taxes through December 31, 1994, because the former
tenants had reimbursed the company for the real estate taxes. In addition, BRE
received reimbursement for the calendar 1995 real estate taxes from the former
tenant at Irvine Spectrum.  Starting January 1, 1995, the annual cost for real
estate taxes for Pomona Warehouse is estimated to be $100,000 (reduced from the
previous estimate of $164,000). In addition, BRE is paying maintenance costs,
such as security, landscaping and insurance, for both the Pomona and Irvine
properties.

Interest expense rose 56% and 65% for the quarter and nine months ended April
30, 1995, respectively, from the comparable periods last year, reflecting the
approximately $50,301,000 principal amount of new mortgage loans on Selby Ranch,
Mira Mesa (Cimmaron, Hacienda and Westpark), and the Schomac apartments.

General and administrative expenses for the first quarter ended October 31, 1994
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 (a former BRE investment) 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 as well as its legal costs from the
insurance companies which provided coverage to BRE at various times throughout
BRE's 1974-1983 ownership of the land underlying Baldwin Place.  BRE has
received commitments from four insurance companies and is still pursuing a fifth
for full recovery of legal expenses to date.

General and administrative expenses also include $50,000 paid to an executive
search firm in connection with the review of potential candidates to succeed Mr.
von Thaden as Chief Executive Officer, and $102,000 paid for investment banking
services in connection with the company's strategic planning process. Mr.
McMahan, acting as interim Chairman of the company, and Mr. Foley, acting as
head of the company's search committee, are receiving fees for their services in
such capacities of $10,000 and $5,000 per month, respectively. These amounts,
together with regular Directors' fees, are also included in general and
administrative expenses.

GAIN ON SALES

During the third quarter ended April 30, 1995, BRE recorded a gross gain of
$1,244,000 on the sale of its light industrial property located at 515 Ellis in
Mountain View, California. The sale is expected to be a tax-deferred exchange,
with the proceeds being invested in Camino Seco Village Apartments in Tucson,
Arizona.

During the second quarter ended January 31, 1995, BRE recorded a gross gain of
$1,389,000 on the tax-deferred exchange of  Marymoor Warehouse in Redmond,
Washington. The proceeds were reinvested in Hacienda del Rio Apartments in
Tucson, Arizona. The net gain on the two transactions was $2,370,000 ($.22 per
share), after 10% of the gross gain was credited against the prepaid advisory
fee to BankAmerica Corporation for termination of its Advisory Agreement with
the company in September 1987. Originally $4,508,000, the prepaid advisory fee
had been reduced to $1,278,000 at April 30, 1995. The company has recorded in
its financial statements through April 30, 1995 gains totaling $62,417,000 which
have been deferred for tax purposes since the company's 1970 inception.

PROVISION FOR POSSIBLE INVESTMENT LOSSES

Preliminary sale negotiations are underway on Pomona Warehouse, a currently
vacant light industrial property, located in Pomona, California.

During the quarter ended April 30, 1995, BRE recorded a $2,000,000 provision for
possible investment losses. Of this amount, $1,750,000 was charged against the
investment in Pomona Warehouse, thereby reducing its carrying value to
$9,359,000, the estimated net sale proceeds. The remaining $250,000 of the
provision was added to the allowance for possible investment losses, which
totaled $1,250,000 at April 30, 1995.

The sales of 515 Ellis and Pomona Warehouse are both intended to be treated as
tax-deferred exchanges.

DIVIDENDS

The $.63 per share dividend declared for the quarter ended April 30, 1995, was
approximately 89% of funds from operations.
