Item 2.  Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

         On March 31, 1998,  in an ordinary  course of business  transaction,  a
limited liability company in which a wholly-owned  subsidiary of Registrant is a
95% member, closed on the acquisition of the property located at 300 Gold Street
(a/k/a  131-143  Flatbush  Avenue),  Brooklyn,  New York (the  "Property").  The
Property is improved with a six story and basement  office  building  containing
approximately  66,000 square feet and is situated on approximately 19,391 square
feet of land,  which  includes  paved  parking for  approximately  25 cars.  The
Property  is net leased to the City of New York as assignee of the New York City
Transit Authority. The Property is used as a training facility for New York City
Police officers.  The lease is for a 15 year term expiring October 15, 2002. The
current annual rent is $850,000.00. The purchase price was $6,700,000, which was
paid in part by a new $4,525,000  mortgage from North Fork Bank. The mortgage is
for a five year term (with a right to extend for an  additional  five years at a
fixed rate of  interest  to be set at 210 basis  points  above the then yield on
five year U.S.  Treasuries)  and calls for a fixed rate of  interest of 7.5% for
the first five years and a pay rate  based on a 25 year  amortization  schedule.
The  balance of the  acquisition  cost was paid by a  $2,380,000  advance  under
Registrant's line of credit,  which line of credit is summarized in Registrant's
Form  10-K for the year  ended  December  31,  1997  under the  caption  "Credit
Agreement".  The lenders under the Credit Agreement are Bank Leumi Trust Company
of New York and the  Commercial  Bank of New York as successor to the First Bank
of the Americas.

         The seller was Rebecca H. Rawson, a referee in a foreclosure proceeding
brought by the  beneficial  seller of the  Property,  WHCS Real  Estate  Limited
Partnership,  an entity  unaffiliated  with  Registrant  or with any director or
officer of Registrant.  The beneficial seller assigned its bid in foreclosure to
Registrant's affiliate and the purchase price disclosed represents the aggregate
of the  foreclosure  bid price and price for the  assignment of the  foreclosure
bid. The purchase price was negotiated at arms-length.

                         Report of Independent Auditors


To the Board of Directors of
One Liberty Properties, Inc.

     We have  audited  the  statement  of revenues  and certain  expenses of the
property at 300 Gold Street (the "Property"),  as  described in Note 1, for the
year ended December 31, 1997. This financial  statement is the responsibility of
management of the Property.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this
financial statement based on our audit.

     We conducted  our audit in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable  assurance about whether the financial  statement 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 revenues and certain  expenses was prepared
for the purpose of complying  with the rules and  regulations  of the Securities
and Exchange Commission for inclusion in the Registration  Statement (Form S-11)
of  One  Liberty  Properties,  Inc.,  and  is  not  intended  to  be a  complete
presentation of the Property's revenues and expenses.

     In our opinion,  the financial statement referred to above presents fairly,
in all material  respects,  the revenues and certain expenses of the Property as
described in Note 1 for the year ended  December 31, 1997,  in  conformity  with
generally accepted accounting principles.

               Notes to Statement of Revenues and Certain Expenses

                                December 31, 1997


1.  Basis of Presentation

     Presented  herein is the statement of revenues and certain expenses related
to the  operations  of the  property,  located at 300 Gold Street (also known as
131-143  Flatbush  Avenue) in the  borough of  Brooklyn  in New York City,  (the
"Property").  The Property is comprised of an office building  containing 66,000
square feet.

     The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
the applicable  rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange  Commission
for the  acquisition  of real  estate  properties.  Accordingly,  the  financial
statements exclude certain expenses that may not be comparable to those expected
to be incurred by One Liberty  Properties,  Inc. (the "Company") in the proposed
future  operations  of the  Property.  It is expected  that the Property will be
acquired by the Company in April,  1998.  Items  excluded  consist of  interest,
amortization and depreciation.

2.  Use of Estimates

     The  preparation  of financial  statements  in  conformity  with  generally
accepted  accounting  principles  requires  management  to  make  estimates  and
assumptions  that effect the amounts  reported in the financial  statements  and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

3.  Revenue Recognition and Concentration of Revenue

     The  Property  is  leased  by the New  York  City  Transit  Authority  (the
"Tenant")  under an operating lease which expires on October 15, 2002. The lease
provides  for fixed net rent  payments of $800,000  per annum until  October 15,
1997 at which time the fixed net rent  payments  increase to $850,000  per annum
through the lease  expiration.  The fixed net rent is net to the landlord,  with
the  Tenant  assuming  the sole  responsibility  for the  condition,  operation,
maintenance and management of the Property.  Minimum rental income is recognized
on a straight-line  basis over the term of the lease.  The excess of amounts due
pursuant  to the  underlying  lease  over  amounts  so  recognized  amounted  to
approximately $ 42,083 for the year ended December 31, 1997.
