Report of Independent Auditors
To the Members
Cornerstone Realty Fund, LLC
We have audited the accompanying statement of revenue and certain expenses of 3170-3190 MacArthur Boulevard for the year ended December 31, 2002. This statement of revenue and certain expenses is the responsibility of the management of Sky Harbor Business Park. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the statement of revenue and certain expenses based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the statement of revenue and certain expenses is free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statement. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
The accompanying statement of revenue and certain expenses was prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain expenses (described in Note 1) that would not be comparable to those resulting from the proposed future operations of the property are excluded and the statement is not intended to be a complete presentation of the revenue and expenses of the property.
In our opinion, the statement of revenue and certain expenses of 3170-3190 MacArthur Boulevard presents fairly, in all material respects, the revenue and certain expenses, as defined above, of 3170-3190 MacArthur Boulevard for the year ended December 31, 2002, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.
