ITEM 1:  BUSINESS
- -----------------

                              THE COMPANY
                              ===========

Realty Income Corporation, a Maryland corporation ("Realty Income" or 
the "Company") was organized to operate as an equity real estate 
investment trust ("REIT").  Realty Income is a fully integrated self-
administered real estate company with in-house acquisition, leasing, 
legal, retail and real estate research, portfolio management and 
capital markets expertise.  As of December 31, 1997, the Company owned 
a diversified portfolio of 826 retail properties located in 43 states 
with over 6.3 million square feet of leasable space.  Of the 826 
properties in the portfolio, 819 are single-tenant properties with the 
remainder being multi-tenant properties.  As of December 31, 1997, 
812, or over 99%, of the 819 single-tenant properties were net leased 
with an average remaining lease term (excluding extension options) of 
approximately 8.4 years. 

The Company's primary business objective is to generate a consistent 
and predictable level of funds from operations ("FFO") per share and 
distributions to stockholders.  Additionally, the Company generally 
will seek to increase FFO per share and distributions to stockholders 
through both active portfolio management and the acquisition of 
additional properties.  The Company also seeks to lower the ratio of 
distributions to stockholders as a percentage of FFO in order to allow 
internal cash flow to be used to fund additional acquisitions and for 
other corporate purposes. 

Realty Income adheres to a focused strategy of acquiring freestanding, 
single-tenant, retail properties leased to regional and national 
retail chains under long-term, net lease agreements.  The Company 
typically acquires retail store locations which provides capital to 
the operators for continued expansion and other corporate purposes.  
Realty Income's acquisitions and investment activities are 
concentrated in highly specific target markets and focus primarily on 
middle-market retailers providing goods and services which satisfy 
basic consumer needs.  The Company's net lease agreements generally 
are for initial terms of 10 to 20 years, require the tenant to pay a 
minimum monthly rent and property operating expenses (taxes, insurance 
and maintenance), and provide for future rent increases (typically 
subject to ceilings) based on increases in the consumer price index or 
additional rent calculated as a percentage of the tenant's gross sales 
above a specified level.

From 1970 and through December 31, 1997, Realty Income has acquired 
and leased back to regional and national retail chains 797 properties 
(including 32 properties that have been sold) and has collected over 

                                                          Page 4

98% of the contractual rent obligations on those properties.  Realty 
Income believes that the long-term ownership of an actively managed, 
diversified portfolio of retail properties, leased under long-term net 
lease agreements, will produce consistent, predictable income and the 
potential for share price appreciation.  Management believes that the 
income generated under long-term leases, coupled with the tenant's 
responsibility for property expenses under the net lease structure, 
generally produces a more predictable income stream than many other 
types of real estate portfolios.

The Company was formed on September 9, 1993 in the State of Delaware 
and reincorporated in Maryland in May 1997.  Realty Income commenced 
operations as a REIT on August 15, 1994 through the merger of 25 
public and private real estate limited partnerships with and into the 
Company (the "Consolidation"). Each of the partnerships was formed 
between 1970 and 1989 for the purpose of acquiring and managing long-
term, net leased properties.

The five senior officers of the Company, who have each managed the 
Company's properties and operations for between seven and 12 years, 
owned approximately 1.0% of the Company's outstanding common stock 
with a market value of approximately $6.2 million as of March 16, 
1998.  The directors and five senior officers of the Company, as a 
group, owned approximately 3.2% of the Company's outstanding common 
stock with a market value of approximately $20.6 million as of March 
16, 1998.

Thomas A. Lewis succeeded William E. Clark as Chief Executive Officer 
of the Company in May 1997.  Mr. Lewis has been an officer of the 
Company since 1987 and has served as the Vice Chairman of the Board of 
Directors since 1994.  Mr. Clark has continued as Chairman of the 
Board of Directors of the Company.

The Company's common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange 
under the symbol "O" and its central index key ("CIK") number is 
726728.

Realty Income has 48 employees as of March 16, 1998.


                          RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
                          ===================

During 1997, the Company continued implementing its growth plan, which 
is intended to increase the Company's funds from operations per share.  
As part of its growth plan, in 1997 the Company acquired 96 additional 
net leased retail properties with an aggregate initial annual 
contractual base rental revenue of approximately $14.7 million.

ACQUISITION OF 96 PROPERTIES DURING 1997.  During 1997, the Company 
continued to increase the size of its portfolio through a strategic 
program of real estate acquisitions.  The Company acquired 96 

                                                          Page 5

additional properties (the "New Properties"), and selectively sold 10 
properties, increasing the number of properties in its portfolio by 
11.6% to 826 properties at December 31, 1997 from 740 properties at 
December 31, 1996.  Of the New Properties, 88 were occupied as of 
February 28, 1998 and the remaining properties were pre-leased and 
under construction pursuant to contracts under which the tenants have 
agreed to develop the properties (with development costs funded by the 
Company) and to begin paying rent when the premises open for business.  
The New Properties were acquired for an aggregate cost of 
approximately $139.2 million (which excludes the estimated unfunded 
development costs totaling $2.9 million on properties under 
construction) at December 31, 1997. During 1997, the Company also 
invested $3.1 million in 12 development properties acquired during 
1996.  The New Properties are located in 27 states, will contain 
approximately 1.1 million leasable square feet and are 100% leased 
under net leases, with an average initial lease term of 14.4 years.  
The weighted average annual unleveraged return on the cost of the New 
Properties (including the estimated unfunded development cost of 
properties under construction) is estimated to be 10.4%, computed as 
estimated contractual net operating income (which in the case of a net 
leased property is equal to the base rent or, in the case of 
properties under construction, the estimated base rent under the 
lease) for the first year of each lease, divided by the estimated 
total development costs.  Since it is possible that a tenant could 
default on the payment of contractual rent, no assurance can be given 
that the actual return on the cost of the New Properties will not 
differ from the foregoing percentage

INCREASE IN MONTHLY DISTRIBUTION.  In December 1997, the Company 
increased its monthly distribution to $0.16 per share from $0.1575 per 
share, representing an increase of 1.6%.  Effective April 1998, the 
Company increased its monthly distribution to $0.1625 per share, 
representing an increase of 1.6%.  The monthly distribution of $0.1625 
per share represents a current annualized distribution of $1.95 per 
share, and an annualized distribution yield of approximately 7.5% 
based on the last reported sale price of the Company's Common Stock on 
the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") of $26.00 on March 16, 1998.  
Although the Company expects to continue its policy of paying monthly 
distributions, there can be no assurance that the current level of 
distributions will be maintained by the Company or as to the actual 
distribution yield for any future period.

UNSECURED CREDIT FACILITY.  In December 1997, the Company negotiated 
several modifications to its credit facility (the "Credit Facility"), 
including (i) an increase in borrowing capacity to $150 million; (ii) 
a reduction in the interest rate to London Interbank Offered Rate 
("LIBOR") plus 0.85% and 0.15% per annum on the total credit 
commitment; (iii) the addition of a competitive bid rate option for up 
to 50% of the credit commitment; and (iv) an extension of the credit 
facility to December 2000.  This credit facility has been and is 
expected to be used to acquire additional retail properties leased to 
regional and national retail chains under long-term lease agreements.

                                                          Page 6

As of March 16, 1998, $138.0 million of borrowing capacity was 
available to the Company under the credit facility.  At that time, the 
outstanding balance was $12.0 million with an effective interest rate 
of 6.6%.

STOCK OFFERINGS.  In February 1998, the Company issued 751,174 shares 
of common stock at a net price to the Company of $25.295 per share to 
a unit investment trust.  The net proceeds of $19.0 million were used 
to repay borrowings under the credit facility.

In October 1997, Realty Income issued 2.7 million shares of common 
stock at a price of $27.00 per share.  The net proceeds of $68.7 
million were used to repay borrowings of $62.6 under the credit 
facility and to acquire properties.

NOTES OFFERING.  On May 6, 1997, Realty Income issued $110 million of 
7.75% Notes due 2007 (the "Notes").  The Notes were sold at 99.929% of 
par for a yield of 7.76%.  After taking into effect the $1.1 million 
gain realized on a treasury interest rate lock agreement entered into 
by the Company, the effective interest rate to the Company on the 
Notes is 7.62%.  The net proceeds from the sale of the Notes were used 
to repay $93.7 million of outstanding borrowings under the Company's 
credit facility and to acquire properties.  Currently, there is no 
formal trading market for the Notes and the Company has not listed and 
does not intend to list the Notes on any securities exchange.

The Company received investment grade corporate credit ratings from 
Duff & Phelps Rating Company, Moody's Investor Service, Inc., and 
Standard & Poor's Rating Group in December 1996.  Currently, Duff & 
Phelps has assigned a rating of BBB, Moody's has assigned a rating of 
Baa3, and Standard & Poor's has assigned a rating of BBB- to the 
Company's senior debt.  These ratings are subject to change based 
upon, among other things, the Company's results of operations and 
financial condition.


                 BUSINESS OBJECTIVES AND STRATEGY
                 ================================

GENERAL. The Company's primary business objective is to generate a 
consistent and predictable level of funds from operations per share 
and distributions to stockholders.  Additionally, the Company 
generally seeks to increase FFO per share and distributions to 
stockholders through both active portfolio management and the 
acquisition of additional properties.  The Company also seeks to lower 
the ratio of distributions to stockholders as a percentage of FFO in 
order to allow internal cash flow to be used to fund additional 
acquisitions and for other corporate purposes. The Company's current 
earnings and profits for federal taxable income tax purposes for 1996 
and 1997 has been approaching the level of distributions paid during 
1996 and 1997, respectively.  As the level of earnings and profits for 
federal taxable tax purposes increases, the Company anticipates

                                                          Page 7

increasing its distributions.  The Company increased its monthly 
distributions per share from $0.1575 to $0.1600 in December 1997 and 
to $0.1625 in April 1998.  See "Business - Distribution Policy".

The Company's portfolio management focus includes: (i) contractual 
rent increases on existing leases; (ii) rental increases at the 
termination of existing leases when market conditions permit; and 
(iii) the active management of the Company's property portfolio, 
including selective sales of properties.  The Company generally 
pursues the acquisition of additional properties under long-term, net 
lease agreements with initial contractual base rent which, at the time 
of acquisition and as a percentage of acquisition costs, is in excess 
of the Company's estimated cost of capital. 

INVESTMENT PHILOSOPHY.  Realty Income believes that the long-term 
ownership of an actively managed, diversified portfolio of retail 
properties leased under long-term, net lease agreements can produce 
consistent, predictable income and the potential for long-term share 
price appreciation.  Under a net lease agreement, the tenant agrees to 
pay a minimum monthly rent and property expenses (taxes, maintenance, 
and insurance) plus, typically, future rent increases (generally 
subject to ceilings) based on increases in the consumer price index 
or, in some cases, additional rent calculated as a percentage of the 
tenant's gross sales above a specified level.  The Company believes 
that long-term leases, coupled with the tenants assuming 
responsibility for property expenses under the net lease structure, 
generally produce a more predictable income stream than many other 
types of real estate portfolios, while continuing to offer the 
opportunity for capital appreciation.

INVESTMENT STRATEGY.  In identifying new properties for acquisition, 
Realty Income focuses on providing expansion capital to retail chains 
by acquiring, then leasing back their retail store locations.  The 
Company classifies retail tenants into three categories: venture, 
middle market, and upper market.  Venture companies are those which 
typically offer a new retail concept in one geographic region of the 
country and operate between five and 50 retail outlets.  Middle market 
retail chains are those which typically have 50 to 500 retail outlets, 
operations in more than one geographic region, have been successful 
through one or more economic cycles, have a proven, replicable 
concept, and an objective of further expansion.  The upper market 
retail chains typically consist of companies with 500 or more stores 
which operate nationally in a mature retail concept.  Upper market 
retail chains generally have strong operating histories and access to 
several sources of capital.

Realty Income primarily focuses on acquiring properties leased to 
middle market retail chains which the Company believes are more 
attractive for investment because: (i) they generally have overcome 
many of the operational and managerial obstacles that affect venture 
companies; (ii) they typically require capital to fund expansion but 
have limited financing options; (iii) historically, they generally

                                                          Page 8

have provided attractive risk-adjusted returns to the Company over 
time, since their financial strength has in many cases tended to 
improve as their businesses have matured; (iv) their relatively large 
size allows them to spread corporate expenses among a greater number 
of stores; and (v), middle market retailers typically have the 
critical mass to survive if a number of locations have to be closed 
due to underperformance.  Realty Income also selectively seeks 
opportunities with venture and upper market retail chains.  
Periodically, opportunities arise in the venture market where the 
company feels that the real estate used by the tenant is of high 
quality and can be purchased at prices that are favorable in the 
market place.  Realty Income also plans to explore various 
opportunities with upper market retailers when the Company feels that 
it can achieve pricing superior to the marketplace because it can 
provide large amounts of capital to enable an upper market retail 
tenant to accomplish its expansion goals.

CREDIT STRATEGY.  Realty Income principally provides sale leaseback 
financing to less than investment grade retail chains.  From 1970 and 
through December 31, 1997, Realty Income has acquired and leased back 
to regional and national retail chains 797 properties (including 32 
properties that have been sold) and has collected over 98% of the 
contractual rent obligations on those properties.  The Company 
believes that it is within this market that it can receive the best 
risk-adjusted return on the financing that it provides to retailers.

Realty Income believes that the primary financial obligations of 
middle market retailers typically include their bank and other debt, 
payment obligations to suppliers and real estate lease obligations.  
Because the Company owns the land and building on which the tenant 
conducts its retail business, the Company believes that the risk of 
default on the retailers' lease obligations is less than the 
retailers' unsecured general obligations.  It has been the Company's 
experience that since retailers must retain their profitable retail 
locations in order to survive, in the event of a Chapter 11 
reorganization they are less likely to reject a lease for a profitable 
location, which would terminate their right to use the property.  
Thus, as the property owner, the Company believes it will fare better 
than unsecured creditors of the same retailer in the event of a 
Chapter 11 reorganization.  In addition, Realty Income believes that 
the risk of default on the real estate leases can be further mitigated 
by monitoring the performance of the retailers' individual unit 
locations and selling those units that are weaker performers.

In order to qualify for inclusion in the Company's portfolio, new 
acquisitions must meet stringent investment and credit requirements.  
The properties must generate attractive current yields, and the tenant 
must meet the Company's credit standards.  The Company has established 
a three part analysis that examines each potential investment based 
on:  1) industry, company, market conditions and credit profile; 2) 
location profitability, if available; and 3) overall real estate 
characteristics, value, and comparative rental rates.  Companies that

                                                          Page 9

have been approved for acquisition are generally those with fifty or 
more retail stores located in highly visible areas, with easy access 
to major thoroughfares, attractive demographics.

ACQUISITION STRATEGY.  Realty Income seeks to invest in industries 
that are dominated by independent local operators and in which several 
well organized regional and national chains are capturing market share 
through service, quality control, economies of scale, mass media 
advertising, and selection of prime retail locations.  The Company 
executes its acquisition strategy by acting as a source of capital to 
regional and national retail chain stores in a variety of industries 
by acquiring, then leasing back, their retail store locations.  
Relying on executives from its acquisitions, retail and real estate 
research, portfolio management, finance, accounting, operations, 
capital markets, and legal departments, the Company undertakes 
thorough research and analysis in identifying appropriate industries, 
tenants, and property locations for investment.  In selecting real 
estate for potential investment, the Company generally will seek to 
acquire properties that have the following characteristics:

* Freestanding, commercially zoned property with a single tenant;

* Properties that are important retail locations for national and
  regional retail chains;

* Properties that are located within attractive demographic areas
  relative to the business of their tenants, with high visibility
  and easy access to major thoroughfares;

* Properties that can be purchased with the simultaneous
  execution or assumption of long-term, net lease agreements,
  providing the opportunity for both current income and future
  rent increases (typically subject to ceilings) based on
  increases in the consumer price index or through the payment of
  additional rent calculated as a percentage of the tenant's
  gross sales above a specified level; and

* Properties that can be acquired at prices generally ranging from 
  $300,000 to $10 million.

PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT STRATEGY.  The active management of the property 
portfolio is an essential component of the Company's long-term 
strategy.  The Company continually monitors its portfolio for changes 
that could affect the performance of the industries, tenants, and 
locations in which it has invested. Realty Income's investment 
committee meets weekly to review industry and tenant research and 
property due diligence, and the executive committee meets at least 
monthly to discuss property operations and portfolio management.  This 
monitoring typically includes ongoing review and analysis of: (i) the 
performance of various tenant industries; (ii) the operation, 
management, business planning, and financial condition of the tenants; 
(iii) the health of the individual markets in which the Company owns

                                                          Page 10

properties, from both an economic and real estate standpoint; and (iv) 
the physical maintenance of the Company's individual properties.  The 
portfolio is analyzed on an ongoing basis with a view towards 
optimizing performance and returns.

While the Company generally intends to hold its net leased properties 
for long-term investment, the Company actively manages its portfolio 
of net leased properties.  The Company intends to pursue a strategy of 
identifying properties that may be sold at attractive prices, 
particularly where the Company believes reinvestment of the sales 
proceeds can generate a higher cash flow to the Company than the 
property being sold.  While the Company intends to pursue such a 
strategy, it will only do so within the constraints of the income tax 
rules regarding REIT status.

CAPITAL STRATEGY.  The Company has a $150 million revolving, unsecured 
acquisition Credit Facility which expires in December 2000.  As of 
March 16, 1998, the outstanding balance on the Credit Facility was 
$12.0 million with an effective rate of approximately 6.6%.  A 
commitment fee of 0.15% per annum accrues on the total credit 
commitment.  The Company is and has been in compliance with the 
various leverage and interest coverage ratio limitations required by 
the Credit Facility.  The Credit Facility has been and is expected to 
be used to acquire additional retail properties leased to regional and 
national retail chains under long term net lease agreements.

The Company utilizes its Credit Facility as a vehicle for the short-
term financing of the acquisition of new properties.  When outstanding 
borrowings under the Credit Facility reach a certain level (generally 
in the range of $60 to $100 million), the Company intends to refinance 
those borrowings with the net proceeds of long-term or permanent 
financing, which may include the issuance of common stock, preferred 
stock or convertible preferred stock, debt securities or convertible 
debt securities.  However, there can be no assurance that the Company 
will be able to effect any such refinancing or that market conditions 
prevailing at the time of refinancing will enable the Company to issue 
equity or debt securities upon acceptable terms.  The Company believes 
that it is best served by a conservative capital structure, with a 
majority of its capital consisting of equity. As of December 31, 1997, 
the Company's total indebtedness was approximately 20.3% of its equity 
market capitalization (defined as shares of the Company's common stock 
outstanding multiplied by the last reported sales price of the common 
stock on the NYSE on December 31, 1997).

Management believes that the Company's cash and cash equivalents on 
hand, cash provided from operating activities and borrowing capacity 
are sufficient to meet its liquidity needs other than the repayment of 
debt for the foreseeable future, except that the Company will require 
additional sources of capital to fund property acquisitions.

The Company received investment grade credit ratings from Duff & 
Phelps Credit Rating Company, Moody's Investor Service, Inc., and

                                                          Page 11

Standard & Poor's Rating Group in December 1996.  Currently, Duff & 
Phelps has assigned a rating of BBB, Moody's has assigned a rating of 
Baa3, and Standard & Poor's has assigned a rating of BBB- to the 
Company's senior debt.  These ratings are subject to change based 
upon, among other things, the Company's results of operations and 
financial condition.

COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES.  The Company believes that, to utilize its 
investment philosophy and strategy most successfully, it must seek to 
maintain the following competitive advantages:

   (i) SIZE AND TYPE OF INVESTMENT PROPERTIES: The Company believes 
that smaller ($300,000 to $10,000,000) retail net leased properties 
represent an attractive investment opportunity in today's real estate 
environment.  Due to the complexities of acquiring and managing a 
large portfolio of relatively small assets, the Company believes that 
these types of properties have not experienced significant 
institutional participation or the corresponding yield reduction 
experienced by larger income producing properties.  The Company 
believes the less intensive day to day property management required by 
net lease agreements, coupled with the active management of a large 
portfolio of smaller properties by the Company, is an effective 
investment strategy.

The tenants of Realty Income's freestanding retail properties provide 
goods and services which satisfy basic consumer needs.  In order to 
grow and expand, they need capital.  Since the acquisition of real 
estate is typically the single largest capital expenditure of many 
such retailers, Realty Income's method of purchasing the property and 
then leasing it back under a net lease arrangement, allows the retail 
chain to free up capital.

   (ii) INVESTMENT IN NEW INDUSTRIES: While specializing in single-
tenant properties, the Company will seek to further diversify its 
portfolio among a variety of industries.  The Company believes that 
diversification will allow it to invest in industries that are 
currently growing and have characteristics the Company finds 
attractive.  These characteristics include, but are not limited to, 
industries dominated by local operators where regional and national 
chain operators can gain substantial market share and dominance 
through more efficient operations, as well as industries taking 
advantage of major demographic shifts in the population base.  For 
example, in the early 1970s, Realty Income targeted the fast food 
industry to take advantage of the country's increasing desire to dine 
away from home, and in the early 1980s, it targeted the child day care 
industry, responding to the need for professional child care as more 
women entered the work force.  During 1997, six new industries were 
added to Realty Income's portfolio.  The six new industries include: 
apparel stores, book stores, office supply stores, pet supply stores, 
shoe stores, and video rental stores.



                                                          Page 12

   (iii) DIVERSIFICATION: Diversification of the portfolio by industry 
type, tenant and geographic location is key to the Company's objective 
of providing predictable investment results for its stockholders.  As 
the Company expands it will seek to further diversify its portfolio.  
During 1997, 13 new retail chains were added to Realty Income's 
portfolio.

   (iv) MANAGEMENT SPECIALIZATION: The Company believes that its 
management's specialization in single-tenant retail properties 
operated under net lease agreements is important to meeting its 
objectives.  The Company plans to maintain this specialization and 
will seek to employ and train high quality professionals in this 
specialized area of real estate ownership, finance and management.

   (v) TECHNOLOGY: The Company intends to stay at the forefront of 
technology in its efforts to efficiently and economically carry out 
its operations.  The Company maintains a sophisticated information 
system that allows it to analyze its portfolio's performance and 
actively manage its investments.  The Company believes that technology 
and information based systems will play an increasingly important role 
in its competitiveness as an investment manager and source of capital 
to a variety of industries and tenants.

The Company anticipates that the year 2000 date issue will not 
adversely affect its current software or computers and will not have a 
material impact its consolidated financial position, results of 
operations, or liquidity.   


                           PROPERTIES
                           ==========

As of January 1, 1998, Realty Income owned a diversified portfolio of 
826 properties in 43 states consisting of over 6.3 million square feet 
of leasable space.  Of the 826 properties, 761, or 92%, were leased to 
regional or national retail chain operators; 41, or 5%, were leased to 
franchisees of retail chain operators; 16, or 2%, were leased to other 
tenant types; eight or less than 1% were available for lease.  At 
January 1, 1998, over 98% of the properties were under net lease 
agreements.  Net leases typically require the tenant to be responsible 
for property operating costs including property taxes, insurance and 
maintenance.

The Company's net leased retail properties are retail locations 
primarily leased to regional and national retail chain store 
operators.  At January 1, 1998, the properties averaged approximately 
7,600 square feet of leasable retail space on approximately 44,500 
square feet of land.  Generally, buildings are single-story properties 
with adequate parking on site to accommodate peak retail traffic 
periods.  The properties tend to be on major thoroughfares with 
relatively high traffic counts and adequate access, egress and 
proximity to sufficient population base to constitute a sufficient 
market or trade area for the retailer's business.

(1)  Annualized rent is calculated by multiplying the monthly 
contractual base rent as of January 1, 1998 by 12 and adding the 1997 
historical percentage rent, which totaled $1.8 million (i.e., 
additional rent calculated as a percentage of the tenant's gross sales 
above a specified level). For the properties under construction, an 
estimated contractual base rent is used based upon the estimated total 
costs of each property.

Of the 826 properties in the portfolio at January 1, 1998, 819 were 
single-tenant properties with the remaining properties being multi-
tenant properties.  As of January 1, 1998, 812, or 99%, of the single-
tenant properties were net leased with an average remaining lease term 
(excluding extension options) of approximately 8.4 years.

(1)  Annualized rent is calculated by multiplying the monthly 
contractual base rent as of January 1, 1998 by 12 and adding the 1997 
historic percentage rent, which totaled $1.8 million (i.e., additional 
rent calculated as a percentage of the tenant's gross sales above a 
specified level).  For the properties under construction, an estimated 
contractual base rent is used based upon the estimated total costs of 
each property.
</FN>

DESCRIPTION OF LEASING STRUCTURE.  At January 1, 1998, over 98% of the 
Company's properties were leased pursuant to net leases.  In most 
cases, the leases were for initial terms of from 10 to 20 years and 
the tenant has an option to extend the initial term.  The leases 
generally provide for a minimum base rent plus future increases 
(typically subject to ceilings) based on increases in the consumer 
price index or additional rent based upon the tenant's gross sales 
above a specified level (i.e., percentage rent). Where leases provide 
for rent increases based on increases in the consumer price index, 
generally such increases permanently become part of the base rent.  
Where leases provide for percentage rent, this additional rent is 
typically payable only if the tenant's gross sales for a given period 
(usually one year) exceed a specified level, and then is typically 
calculated as a percentage of only the amount of gross sales in excess 
of such level.  In general, the leases require the tenant to pay 
property taxes, insurance, and expenses of maintaining the property.

Matters Pertaining to Certain Properties and Tenants
- ----------------------------------------------------

Eight of the Company's properties were vacant as of January 1, 1998 
(one of which is a multi-tenant property and seven of which are 
single-tenant properties) and available for lease.  As of January 1, 
1998, 26 of the Company's properties, which were under lease, were 
vacant and available for sublease by the tenant.  All of these tenants 
were current with their rent and other obligations.  

The Company's three largest tenants are Children's World Learning 
Centers, La Petite Academy, and Golden Corral Restaurants which 
accounted for approximately 20.4%, 13.8%, and 10.2%, respectively, of 
the Company's rental revenue for the year ended December 31, 1997.  
The financial position and results of operations of the Company and 
its ability to make distributions to stockholders and debt service 
payments may be materially adversely affected by financial 
difficulties experienced by any such major tenants or other tenants.

For the year ended December 31, 1997, approximately 35.9%, and 19.8% 
of the Company's rental revenues were attributable to tenants in the 
child care and restaurant industries, respectively.  A downturn in any 
of these industries generally, whether nationwide or limited to 
specific sectors of the United States, could adversely affect tenants 
in those industries, which in turn could materially adversely affect 
the financial position and results of operations of the Company and
                                                          Page 17

its ability to make distributions to stockholders and debt service 
payments.  In that regard, a substantial number of the Company's 
properties are leased to middle market retail chains which generally 
have more limited financial and other resources than certain upper 
market retail chains and therefore are more likely to be adversely 
affected by a downturn in their respective businesses or in the 
regional or national economy generally.

On September 5, 1997, Levitz Furniture filed a voluntary petition for 
reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code.  
Levitz Furniture occupies four of the Company's properties: two in 
California, one in Texas and one in Florida.  As of March 1, 1998, the 
monthly base rent multiplied by 12 from the four stores leased to 
Levitz Furniture was approximately $2.5 million, or approximately 3.3% 
of the Company's total base rent at that date.  While Levitz Furniture 
has paid its most recent rental payments, there can be no assurance 
that Levitz Furniture will continue to pay rent for the remainder of 
the lease terms for the four Levitz properties.  Likewise, there can 
be no assurance that Levitz Furniture will not be released from its 
obligations under its leases with the Company pursuant to the 
bankruptcy proceedings.  In the event that any of the aforementioned 
should occur, it could result in an adverse impact on the Company's 
financial condition, results of operations and ability to make 
distributions to stockholders and debt service payments.

Eight of the Company's properties were vacant as of January 1, 1998 
and available for lease.  Four of the vacant properties were 
previously leased to restaurant operators, one to a child care 
operator, one to a convenience store operator, one to a automotive 
parts store operator and one operated as a multi-tenant location.  One 
of the restaurant locations which had been vacant since November 1995 
was sold in January 1998.


Development of Certain Properties
- ---------------------------------

Of the 96 New Properties acquired by the Company in 1997, 88 were 
occupied as of March 1, 1998 and the remaining eight were pre-leased 
and under construction pursuant to contracts under which the tenants 
have agreed to develop the properties (with development costs funded 
by the Company) and to begin paying rent when the premises open for 
business.  In the case of development properties, the Company 
typically enters into an agreement with a tenant pursuant to which the 
tenant retains a contractor to construct the improvements on the 
property and the Company funds the costs of such development.  The 
tenant is contractually obligated to complete the construction on a 
timely basis, generally within eight months after the Company 
purchases the land, to pay construction cost overruns to the extent 
they exceed the construction budget by more than a predetermined 
amount.  The Company also enters into a lease with the tenant at the 
time the Company purchases the land, which generally requires that the

                                                          Page 18

tenant begin paying base rent, calculated as a percentage of the 
Company's acquisition cost for the property, including construction 
costs and capitalized interest, when the premises opens for business.  
During 1997, the Company acquired 19 development properties, 11 of 
which have been completed, were operating and paying rent as of March 
1, 1998.  The Company will continue to seek to acquire land for 
development under similar arrangements.


                       DISTRIBUTION POLICY
                       ===================

Distributions are paid to the Company's stockholders on a monthly 
basis if, as and when declared by the Company's Board of Directors.  
The April 1998 distribution of $0.1625 per share represents a current 
annualized distribution of $1.95 per share, and an annualized 
distribution yield of approximately 7.5% based on the last reported 
sale price of $26.00 of the Company's common stock, on the NYSE on 
March 16, 1998.  In order to maintain its tax status as a REIT for 
federal income tax purposes, the Company is generally required to 
distribute dividends (other than capital gain dividends) to its 
stockholders in an amount equal to at least 95% of its taxable income.  
The Company intends to make distributions to its stockholders which 
are sufficient to meet this requirement.

Future distributions by the Company will be at the discretion of its 
Board of Directors and will depend on, among other things, its results 
of operations, financial condition and capital requirements, the 
annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the 
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), its debt 
service requirements and such other factors as the Board of Directors 
may deem relevant.  In addition, the Credit Facility contains 
financial covenants which could limit the amount of distributions 
payable by the Company in the event of a deterioration in the results 
of operations or financial condition of the Company, and which 
prohibit the payment of distributions on the common stock in the event 
that the Company fails to pay when due (subject to any applicable 
grace period) any principal of or interest on borrowings under the 
Credit Facility.

Distributions by the Company to the extent of its current and 
accumulated earnings and profits for federal income tax purposes 
generally will be taxable to stockholders as ordinary income.  
Distributions in excess of such earnings and profits generally will be 
treated as a non-taxable reduction in the stockholders' basis in its 
stock to the extent of such basis, and thereafter as a gain from the 
sale of such stock.  Approximately 5.2% of the distributions made or 
deemed to have been made in 1997 were classified as a return of 
capital for federal income tax purposes.  The Company is unable to 
predict the portion of 1998 or future distributions which may be 
classified as a return of capital since such amount depends on the 
Company's taxable income for the entire year.

                                                          Page 19

                           OTHER ITEMS
                           ===========

COMPETITION FOR ACQUISITION OF REAL ESTATE.  The Company faces 
competition in the acquisition, operation and sale of its properties.  
Such competition can be expected from other businesses, individuals, 
fiduciary accounts and plans and other entities engaged in real estate 
investment.  Some of the Company's competitors are larger and have 
greater financial resources than the Company.  This competition may 
result in a higher cost for properties the Company wishes to purchase.  
The tenants leasing the Company's properties generally face 
significant competition from other operators.  This may result in an 
adverse impact on that portion, if any, of the rental stream to be 
paid to the Company based on a tenant's revenues and may also 
adversely impact the tenants' results of operations or financial 
condition.

ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITIES.  Investments in real property create a 
potential for environmental liability on the part of the owner of such 
property for contamination resulting from the presence or discharge of 
hazardous substances on the property.  Such liability may be imposed 
without regard to knowledge of, or the timing, cause or person 
responsible for the release of such substances onto the property.  
There may be environmental problems associated with the Company's 
properties which are not known to the Company.  In that regard, a 
number of the Company's properties are leased to operators of oil 
change and tune-up facilities and to convenience stores which sell 
petroleum-based fuels.  These facilities or other of the Company's 
properties utilize, or may have utilized in the past, underground 
tanks for the storage of petroleum-based or waste products which could 
create a potential for release of hazardous substances.  The presence 
of hazardous substances on a property may adversely affect the 
Company's ability to sell such property and it may cause the Company 
to incur substantial remediation costs.  Although tenants of the 
Company's properties generally are required by their leases to operate 
in compliance with all applicable federal, state and local laws and 
regulations and to indemnify the Company against any environmental 
liabilities arising from the tenant's activities on the property, the 
Company could nevertheless be subject to strict liability by virtue of 
its ownership interest, and there can be no assurance that the tenants 
would satisfy their indemnification obligations under the leases.

The Company believes that its properties are in compliance in all 
material respects with all federal, state and local laws, ordinances 
and regulations regarding hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum 
products. The Company has not been notified by any governmental 
authority, and is not otherwise aware, of any material noncompliance, 
liability or claim relating to hazardous or toxic substances or 
petroleum products in connection with any of its present properties.  
Nevertheless, if environmental contamination should exist, the Company 
could be subject to strict liability by virtue of its ownership 
interest.

                                                          Page 20

In December 1996, the Company obtained a five year environmental 
insurance policy on the property portfolio.  Based upon the 826 
properties in the portfolio at December 31, 1997, the cost of the 
insurance will be approximately $90,000 during 1998.  The limit of the 
policy is $10.0 million for each loss and $20.0 million in the 
aggregate, with a $100,000 deductible.  There is a sublimit on 
properties with underground storage tanks of $1.0 million per 
occurrence and $5.0 million in the aggregate, with a deductible of 
$25,000.

TAXATION OF THE COMPANY.  The Company has elected to be taxed as a 
REIT under the Code, commencing with its taxable year ended December 
31, 1994.  As long as the Company meets the requirements under the 
Code for qualification as a REIT each year, the Company will be 
entitled to a deduction when calculating its taxable income for 
dividends paid to its stockholders.  For the Company to qualify as a 
REIT, however, certain detailed technical requirements must be met 
(including certain income, asset, distribution and stock ownership 
tests) under Code provisions for which, in many cases, there are only 
limited judicial or administrative interpretations.  Although the 
Company intends to operate so that it will continue to qualify as a 
REIT, the highly complex nature of the rules governing REITs, the 
ongoing importance of factual determinations and the possibility of 
future changes in the Company's circumstances preclude any assurance 
that the Company will so qualify in any year.  

If the Company were to fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, 
the Company would be subject to federal income tax (including any 
applicable alternative minimum tax) on its taxable income at regular 
corporate rates and would not be allowed a deduction in computing its 
taxable income for amounts distributed to its stockholders.  Moreover, 
unless entitled to relief under certain statutory provisions, the 
Company also would be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the 
four taxable years following the year during which qualification is 
lost.  This treatment would substantially reduce the net earnings of 
the Company available for investment or distribution to stockholders 
because of the additional tax liability to the Company for the years 
involved.  Consequently, distributions to stockholders would be 
substantially reduced and could be eliminated because of the Company's 
increased tax liability.  In addition, if the Company fails to qualify 
as a REIT, all distributions to stockholders will be taxable as 
ordinary income to the extent of current and accumulated earnings and 
profits, but, subject to certain limitations of the Code, corporate 
distributees may be eligible for the dividends received deduction.  
Even if the Company qualifies for and maintains its REIT status, it is 
subject to certain federal, state and local taxes on its income and 
property.  For example, if the Company has net income from a 
prohibited transaction, such income will be subject to a 100% tax.

EFFECT OF DISTRIBUTION REQUIREMENTS.  To maintain its status as a REIT 
for federal income tax purposes, the Company generally is required 
each year to distribute to its stockholders at least 95% of its 

                                                          Page 21

taxable income (determined without regard to the dividends paid 
deduction and by excluding net capital gains) each year.  The Company 
is also subject to tax at regular corporate rates to the extent that 
it distributes less than 100% of its taxable income (including net 
capital gains) each year.  In addition, the Company is subject to a 4% 
nondeductible excise tax on the amount, if any, by which certain 
distributions paid by it with respect to any calendar year are less 
than the sum of 85% of its ordinary income for such calendar year, 95% 
of its capital gain net income for the calendar year and any amount of 
such income that was not distributed in prior years.  The Company 
intends to continue to make distributions to its stockholders to 
comply with the distribution requirement of the Code and to reduce 
exposure to federal income taxes and the nondeductible excise tax.  
Differences in timing between the receipt of income and the payment of 
expenses in arriving at taxable income and the effect of required debt 
amortization payments could require the Company to borrow funds on a 
short-term basis to meet the distribution requirements that are 
necessary to achieve the tax benefits associated with qualifying as a 
REIT.

DILUTION OF COMMON STOCK.  The Company's future growth will depend in 
large part upon its ability to raise additional capital.  If the 
Company were to raise additional capital through the issuance of 
equity securities, the interests of holders of common stock could be 
diluted.  Likewise, the Company's Board of Directors is authorized to 
cause the Company to issue preferred stock of any class or series 
(with such dividends and voting and other rights as the Board of 
Directors may determine).  Accordingly, the Board of Directors may 
authorize the issuance of preferred stock with voting, dividend and 
other similar rights which could be dilutive to or otherwise adversely 
affect the interests of holders of Common Stock.

REAL ESTATE OWNERSHIP RISKS.  The Company is subject to all of the 
general risks associated with the ownership of real estate, in 
particular the risk that rental revenue from the properties will not 
be sufficient to cover all corporate operating expenses and debt 
service payments on indebtedness incurred by the Company.  These risks 
include adverse changes in general or local economic conditions, 
changes in supply of or demand for similar or competing properties, 
changes in interest rates and operating expenses, competition for 
tenants, changes in market rental rates, inability to lease properties 
upon termination of existing leases, renewal of leases at lower rental 
rates and inability to collect rents from tenants due to financial 
hardship, including bankruptcy.  Other risks include changes in tax, 
real estate, zoning and environmental laws which may have an adverse 
impact upon the value of real estate, uninsured property liability, 
property damage or casualty losses and unexpected expenditures for 
capital improvements or to bring properties into compliance with 
applicable federal, state and local laws.  Acts of God and other 
factors beyond the control of the Company's management might also 
adversely affect the Company.


                                                          Page 22

DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL.  The Company is dependent on the efforts 
of its executive officers and key employees.  The loss of the services 
of its executive officers and key employees could have a material 
adverse effect on the Company's operations.

(1)  Ratio of Earnings to Fixed Charges is calculated by dividing 
earnings by fixed charges.  For this purpose, earnings consist of net 
income before interest expense.  Fixed charges are comprised of 
interest costs (including capitalized interest) and the amortization 
of debt issuance costs.

ITEM 7:  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
         CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ----------------------------------------------------------

GENERAL
- -------

Realty Income Corporation, a Maryland corporation ("Realty Income" or 
the "Company") was organized to operate as an equity real estate 
                                                          Page 26

investment trust ("REIT").  Realty Income is a fully integrated self-
administered real estate company with in-house acquisition, leasing, 
legal, retail and real estate research, portfolio management and 
capital markets expertise.  As of December 31, 1997, the Company owned 
a diversified portfolio of 826 retail properties located in 43 states 
with over 6.3 million square feet of leasable space.  Of the 826 
properties in the portfolio, 819 are single-tenant properties with the 
remainder being multi-tenant properties.  As of December 31, 1997, 
812, or over 99%, of the 819 single-tenant properties were net leased 
with an average remaining lease term (excluding extension options) of 
approximately 8.4 years. 

The Company's primary business objective is to generate a consistent 
and predictable level of funds from operations ("FFO") per share and 
distributions to stockholders.  Additionally, the Company generally 
will seek to increase FFO per share and distributions to stockholders 
through both active portfolio management and the acquisition of 
additional properties.  The Company also seeks to lower the ratio of 
distributions to stockholders as a percentage of FFO in order to allow 
internal cash flow to be used to fund additional acquisitions and for 
other corporate purposes. 

The Company's portfolio management focus includes: (i) contractual 
rent increases on existing leases; (ii) rental increases at the 
termination of existing leases when market conditions permit; and 
(iii) the active management of the Company's property portfolio, 
including selective sales of properties.  The Company generally 
pursues the acquisition of additional properties under long-term, net 
lease agreements with initial contractual base rent which, at the time 
of acquisition and as a percentage of acquisition costs, is in excess 
of the Company's estimated cost of capital. 

Realty Income adheres to a focused strategy of acquiring freestanding, 
single-tenant, retail properties leased to regional and national 
retail chains under long-term, net lease agreements.  The Company 
typically acquires retail store locations, which provides capital to 
the operators for continued expansion and other corporate purposes.  
Realty Income's acquisition and investment activities are concentrated 
in highly specific target markets and focus on middle-market retailers 
providing goods and services which satisfy basic consumer needs.  The 
Company's net lease agreements generally are for initial terms of 10 
to 20 years, require the tenant to pay a minimum monthly rent and 
property operating expenses (taxes, insurance and maintenance), and 
provide for future rent increases (typically subject to ceilings) 
based on increases in the consumer price index or additional rent 
calculated as a percentage of the tenant's gross sales above a 
specific level. 

From 1970 and through December 31, 1997, Realty Income has acquired 
and leased back to regional and national retail chains 797 properties 
(including 32 properties that have been sold) and has collected over 
98% of the original contractual rent obligation on these properties.  

                                                          Page 27

Realty Income believes that the long-term ownership of an actively 
managed, diversified portfolio of retail properties leased under long-
term, net lease agreements can produce consistent, predictable income 
and the potential for long-term share price appreciation.  Management 
believes that the income generated under long-term leases, coupled 
with the tenant's responsibility for property expenses under the net 
lease structure, generally produces a more predictable income stream 
than many other types of real estate portfolios.

Realty Income was organized in the State of Delaware on September 9, 
1993 to facilitate the merger, which was effective on August 15, 1994 
(the "Consolidation"), of ten private and 15 public real estate 
limited partnerships (the "Partnerships") with and into Realty Income.  
In May 1997, the Company was reincorporated as a Maryland corporation.  
From the date of the Consolidation through August 17, 1995, the 
Company's day-to-day affairs were managed by R.I.C. Advisor, Inc. (the 
"Advisor") which provided advice and assistance regarding acquisitions 
of properties by the Company and performed the day-to-day management 
of the Company's properties and business.  On August 17, 1995, the 
Advisor was merged with and into Realty Income (the "Merger") and the 
company became self-administered and self-managed.

     Other Information

Thomas A. Lewis succeeded William E. Clark as Chief Executive Officer 
of the Company in May 1997.  Mr. Lewis has been an officer of the 
Company since 1987 and has served as the Vice Chairman of the Board of 
Directors since 1994.  Mr. Clark has continued as Chairman of the 
Board of Directors of the Company. 

The Company's common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange 
under the symbol "O" and its central index key ("CIK") number is 
726728. 
 
The Company anticipates that the year 2000 date issue will not 
adversely affect its current software or computers and will not have a 
material impact its consolidated financial position, results of 
operations, or liquidity.   


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
===============================

    Cash Reserves

Realty Income was organized for the purpose of operating as an equity 
REIT which acquires and leases properties and distributes to 
stockholders, in the form of monthly cash distributions, a substantial 
portion of its net cash flow generated from leases on its retail 
properties.  The Company intends to retain an appropriate amount of 
cash as working capital reserves.  At December 31, 1997, the Company 
had cash and cash equivalents totaling $2.1 million. 
                                                          Page 28

Management believes that the Company's cash and cash equivalents on 
hand, cash provided from operating activities and borrowing capacity 
are sufficient to meet its liquidity needs for the foreseeable future, 
except that the Company will require additional sources of capital to 
fund property acquisitions. 

    Capital Funding

Realty Income has a $150 million, three-year revolving, unsecured 
acquisition credit facility that expires in December 2000.  The credit 
facility currently bears interest at 0.85% over the London Interbank 
Offered Rate ("LIBOR") and offers the Company other interest rate 
options.  As of March 16, 1998, $138.0 million of borrowing capacity 
was available to the Company under the acquisition credit facility.  
At that time, the outstanding balance was $12.0 million with an 
effective interest rate of 6.6%.  This credit facility has been and is 
expected to be used to acquire additional retail properties leased to 
national and regional retail chains under long term lease agreements.  
Any additional borrowings will increase the Company's exposure to 
interest rate risk.

Realty Income expects to meet its long-term capital needs for the 
acquisition of properties through the issuance of public or private 
debt or equity.  In August 1997, the Company filed a universal shelf 
registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission 
covering up to $300 million in value of common stock, preferred stock 
and/or debt securities.  Approximately $91.9 million in value of 
common stock and debt securities has been issued under the universal 
shelf registration statement through March 4, 1998. 

On February 23, 1998, Realty Income issued 751,174 shares of common 
stock at a net price to the Company of $25.295 per share to a unit 
investment trust.  The net proceeds were used to repay borrowings of 
$19.0 million under the acquisition credit facility.

On October 15, 1997, Realty Income issued 2,700,000 shares of common 
stock at a price of $27.00 per share.  The net proceeds were used to 
repay borrowings of $62.6 million under the acquisition credit 
facility and to acquire properties.  These borrowings under the 
acquisition credit facility were used to acquire properties during 
June 1997 through September 1997. 

On May 6, 1997, Realty Income issued $110 million of 7.75% notes due 
May 2007 (the "Notes").  The Notes were sold at 99.929% of par for a 
yield of 7.76%.  After taking into effect the gain of $1.1 million 
realized on the treasury interest rate lock agreement, which is 
described in the next paragraph, the effective interest rate on the 
Notes to the Company is 7.62%.  The net proceeds from the issuance of 
the Notes were used to repay $93.7 million of outstanding borrowings 
under the Company's credit facility and to acquire properties.  
Interest on the Notes is payable semiannually each May and November. 


                                                          Page 29

Currently, there is no formal trading market for the Notes and the 
Company has not listed and does not intend to list the Notes on any 
securities exchange. 
 
In December 1996, the Company entered into a treasury interest rate 
lock agreement to hedge against the possibility of rising interest 
rates.  Under the terms of the interest rate lock agreement, the 
Company was to receive or make a payment based on the differential 
between a specified interest rate, 6.537%, and the actual 10-year 
treasury interest rate on notional principal of $90 million, at the 
end of six months.  Based on the 10-year treasury interest rate at May 
1, 1997 (the interest rate pricing date), the Company realized a $1.1 
million gain on the agreement, which was received in June 1997.  The 
gain on the agreement is being amortized over 10 years (the life of 
the Notes) as a yield adjustment to interest expense.

The Company received investment grade corporate credit ratings from 
Duff & Phelps Rating Company, Moody's Investor Service, Inc., and 
Standard & Poor's Rating Group in December 1996.  Currently, Duff & 
Phelps has assigned a rating of BBB, Moody's has assigned a rating of 
Baa3, and Standard & Poor's has assigned a rating of BBB- to the 
Company's senior debt.  These ratings are subject to change based 
upon, among other things, the Company's results of operations and 
financial condition.

    Property Acquisitions

During 1997, Realty Income acquired 96 retail properties located in 27 
states for $139.2 million (which excludes the estimated unfunded 
development costs of $2.9 million on properties under construction at 
December 31, 1997) and selectively sold ten properties, increasing the 
number of properties in its portfolio by 11.6% to 826 from 740 at 
December 31, 1996.  During 1997, the Company also invested $3.1 
million in development properties acquired in 1996 and $53,000 in five 
existing properties in its portfolio.  The 96 properties acquired will 
contain approximately 1.1 million leasable square feet and are 100% 
leased under net leases, with an average initial lease term of 14.4 
years.  The weighted average annual unleveraged return on the cost of 
the 96 properties (including the estimated unfunded development cost 
of the properties under development) is estimated to be 10.4%, 
computed as estimated contractual net operating income (which in the 
case of a net leased property is equal to the base rent or, in the 
case of properties under construction, the estimated base rent under 
the lease) for the first year of each lease, divided by total 
acquisition and estimated development costs.  Since it is possible 
that a tenant could default on the payment of contractual rent, no 
assurance can be given that the actual return on the cost of the 96 
properties acquired in 1997 will not differ from the foregoing 
percentage. 
 
Of the properties acquired during 1997, 88 were occupied as of 
February 28, 1998 and the remaining properties were pre-leased and 

                                                          Page 30

under construction pursuant to contracts under which the tenant has 
agreed to develop the properties (with development costs funded by the 
Company) and to begin paying rent when the premises open for business.  
All of the properties acquired in 1997, including the properties under 
development, are leased with initial terms of nine to 20 years.

activity by quarter.

    Distributions

Cash distributions paid during 1997, 1996 and 1995 were $44.4 million, 
$48.1 million and $36.7 million, respectively.  The 1996 cash 
distributions include a special distribution of $5.3 million paid in 
January 1996. 
 
During 1997, the Company paid 11 monthly distributions of $0.1575 per 
share and increased the monthly distribution to $0.16 per share in 
December 1997.  The monthly distributions paid during 1997 totaled 
$1.8925 per share.  In December 1997, and January and February 1998, 
the Company declared distributions of $0.16 per share which were paid 
on January 15, 1998, February 17, 1998 and payable on March 16, 1998, 
respectively.

During 1996, the Company paid 11 monthly distributions of $0.155 per 
share and increased the monthly distribution to $0.1575 per share in 
December 1996.  The regular distributions paid during 1996 totaled 
$1.8625 per share.  In addition, the Company paid a special 
distribution of $0.23 per share in January 1996.  Total distributions 
paid in 1996 were $2.0925 per share.  For federal income tax purposes, 
a portion of the special distribution, in the amount of approximately 
$0.144 per share, was taxable as ordinary income in 1995 and the 
remaining $0.086 per share was included in each stockholders 1996 Form 
1099.

During 1995, the Company paid monthly distributions of $0.15 per share 
from January through July and increased the monthly distribution to
                                                          Page 31

$0.155 per share in August 1995.  Monthly distributions of $0.155 per 
share were paid in August through December 1995.  The monthly 
distributions paid during 1995 totaled $1.825 per share.

     Other Information

As a result of the Merger in August 1995,  the Company assumed a 
defined benefit pension plan (the "Plan") covering substantially all 
of the employees of the Advisor.  The board of directors of the 
Advisor froze the Plan effective May 31, 1995 and no additional 
employees were entitled to enter the Plan.  The Plan was terminated on 
January 2, 1996 and final disbursement of the Plan's assets occurred 
on February 24, 1997.

FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS ("FFO")

FFO for 1997 increased by $4.63 million or 9.7% to $52.35 million 
versus $47.72 million during 1996.  FFO during 1995 was $40.4 million.  
 
Realty Income defines FFO as net income before gain on sales of 
properties, plus provision for impairment losses, plus depreciation 
and amortization.  In accordance with the recommendations of the 
National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"), 
amortization of deferred financing costs are not added back to net 
income to calculate FFO.  Amortization of financing costs are included 
in interest expense in the consolidated statements of income. 
 
The following is a reconciliation of net income to FFO, and 
information regarding distributions paid and diluted weighted average 
number of shares outstanding for 1997, 1996 and 1995 (dollars in

Management considers FFO to be an appropriate measure of the 
performance of an equity REIT.  FFO is used by financial analysts in 
evaluating REITs and can be one measure of a REIT's ability to make 
cash distribution payments.  Presentation of this information provides 
the reader with an additional measure to compare the performance of 
different REITs, although it should be noted that not all REITs 
calculate FFO the same way so comparisons with such REITs may not be 
meaningful. 
 
FFO is not necessarily indicative of cash flow available to fund cash 
needs and should not be considered as an alternative to net income as 
an indication of the Company's performance or to cash flows from 
operating, investing, and financing activities as a measure of 
liquidity or ability to make cash distributions or to pay debt 
service. 


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
=====================

     Comparison of 1997 to 1996

Rental revenue was $67.6 million for 1997 versus $56.8 million for 
1996, an increase of $10.8 million.  The increase in rental revenue 
was primarily due to the acquisition of 96 properties during 1997 and 
62 properties during 1996.  These properties generated revenue of 
$11.4 million in 1997 compared to $915,000 in 1996, an increase of 
$10.5 million.  At January 1, 1998, annualized contractual lease 
payments on the properties acquired in 1996 and 1997 are approximately 
$20.2 million (excluding estimated rent from nine properties under 
development and any percentage rents). 
 
Of the 826 properties in the portfolio as of December 31, 1997, 819 
are single-tenant properties with the remaining properties being 
multi-tenant properties.  Of the 819 single-tenant properties, 812, or 
over 99%, were net leased with an average remaining lease term 
(excluding extension options) of approximately 8.4 years.  At December 
31, 1997, 812 of the Company's 819 single tenant properties had leases 
which provide for increases in rents through: (i) base rent increases 
tied to a consumer price index with adjustment ceilings; (ii) overage 
rent based on a percentage of the tenants' gross sales or (iii) fixed 
increases.  Some leases contain more than one of these clauses.  
Percentage rent, which is included in rental revenue, was $1.8 million 
during 1997 and $1.7 million in 1996.
 
Same store rents generated on 667 properties owned during all of both 
1997 and 1996 increased by $767,000 or 1.4%, to $55.74 million from 
$54.97 million.

At December 31, 1997, the Company had eight properties (one of which 
is a multi-tenant property) that were not under lease as compared to 
nine at December 31, 1996 and four at December 31, 1995.  At December 
31, 1997, 818, or over 99%, of the 826 properties in the portfolio 
were under lease agreements with third party tenants. 
 
Interest and other revenue during 1997 and 1996 totaled $284,000 and 
$180,000, respectively, an increase of $104,000.  The increase in 1997 
was primarily due to interest earned on Note proceeds in excess of the 
$93.7 million used to payoff the credit facility in May 1997.  These 
proceeds were invested in new properties during May and June 1997. 
 
Depreciation and amortization was $18.6 million in 1997 versus $16.4 
million in 1996.  The increase in 1997 was primarily due to 
depreciation of the properties acquired in 1996 and 1997. 

General and administrative expenses increased by $256,000 to $5.44 
million in 1997 versus $5.18 million in 1996.  The increase in general 
and administrative expenses was primarily due to an increase in 
property acquisition expenses and employee costs.  General and 
administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased to 8.0% 
in 1997 as compared to 9.1% in 1996.  During 1997, the Company 
increased its number of employees to 47 from 35.  The majority of the 
new employees work primarily on new property acquisitions.

Property expenses are broken down into costs associated with non-net 
leased multi-tenant properties, unleased single-tenant properties and 
general portfolio expenses.  Expenses related to the multi-tenant and 
unleased single-tenant properties include, but are not limited to, 
property taxes, maintenance, insurance, utilities, property 
inspections, bad debt expense and legal fees.  General portfolio costs 
include, but are not limited to, insurance, legal, property 
inspections and title search fees.  At December 31, 1997, eight 
properties were available for lease as compared to nine at December 
31, 1996. 
 
Property expenses were $1.79 million in 1997 and $1.64 million in 
1996, an increase of $145,000.  The increase in property expenses was 
primarily attributable to costs of the environmental insurance 
obtained in December 1996.  In 1997, environmental insurance expense 
totaled $85,000 and based upon the 826 properties in the portfolio at 
December 31, 1997, the costs of environmental insurance is anticipated 
                                                          Page 35

to be approximately $90,000 during 1998.  The limit of the policy is 
$10 million for each loss and $20 million in the aggregate, with a 
$100,000 deductible.  There is a sub-limit on properties with 
underground storage tanks of $1 million per occurrence and $5 million 
in the aggregate, with a deductible of $25,000.

Interest expense in 1997 increased by $5.9 million to $8.23 million, 
as compared to $2.37 million in 1996.  The following is a summary of 
the five components of interest expense for 1997 and 1996 (dollars in 
thousands):

                                   ========     =======     ==========

Interest on outstanding loans and notes was $5.9 million higher in 
1997 than in 1996, due to an increase in the average outstanding 
balances and a higher average interest rate.  The higher average 
interest rate was due to interest on the Notes issued in May 1997.  
During 1997, the average outstanding balances and interest rate (after 
taking into effect amortization of the gain on the treasury lock 
agreement) on the Notes and credit facility were $108.4 million and 
7.35% as compared to $30.7 million and 6.96% during 1996.  During 
1997, the credit facility's average interest rate was 6.82% and 
average outstanding balance was $36.1 million. 

The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events 
or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the 
asset may not be recoverable. In 1997, a $165,000 charge was taken to 
reduce the net carrying value on three properties because they became 
held for sale.  One of these properties was sold in 1997 and another 
in January 1998.  In 1996, a $579,000 charge was taken to reduce the 
net carrying value on four properties because they became held for 
sale.  Three of these properties have been sold.

During 1997, the Company sold ten properties (six restaurants, two 
child care centers, one automotive parts store and one multi-tenant 
location) for a total of $4.4 million and recorded a gain of $1.1 
million.  During 1996, the Company sold seven properties (five 
restaurants and two multi-tenant locations) for $4.4 million and 
recognized a gain of $1.5 million. 

                                                          Page 36

In 1997, the Company had net income of $34.77 million versus $32.22 
million in 1996.  The $2.55 million increase in net income is 
primarily due to the increase in rental revenue from properties 
acquired in 1996 and 1997 of $10.5 million and an increase in same 
store rents on 667 properties owned during both periods of $767,000, 
which were partially offset by an increase in depreciation and 
amortization, general and administrative, and interest expense 
totaling $8.3 million. 

     Comparison of 1996 to 1995

Rental revenue was $56.8 million for 1996 versus $51.2 million for 
1995, an increase of $5.6 million.  The increase in rental revenue was 
primarily due to the acquisition of 124 properties from December 1994 
through December 1996.  These properties generated revenue in 1996 and 
1995 of $8.8 million and $3.8 million, respectively, an increase of 
$5.0 million.

Of the 740 properties in the portfolio as of December 31, 1996, 732 
are single-tenant properties with the remaining properties being 
multi-tenant properties.  Of the 732 single-tenant properties, 723, or 
approximately 99%, had leases which provide for increases in rents 
through: (i) base rent increases tied to a consumer price index with 
adjustment ceilings; (ii) overage rent based on a percentage of the 
tenants' gross sales or (iii) fixed increases.  Some leases contain 
more than one of these clauses.  Percentage rent, which is included in 
rental revenue, was $1.7 million during 1996 and $1.6 million in 1995.

Same store rents generated on 619 properties owned during all of both 
1996 and 1995 increased by $871,000, or 1.9%, to $48.0 million from 
$47.1 million.

At December 31, 1996, the Company had nine properties that were not 
under lease as compared to four at December 31, 1995.  At December 31, 
1996, 731, or approximately 99%, of the 740 properties in the 
portfolio were under lease agreements with third party tenants. 
 
Interest and other revenue during 1996 and 1995 totaled $180,000 and 
$370,000, respectively.  The decrease of $190,000 was due to lower 
average cash and cash equivalent balances in 1996.

Depreciation and amortization was $16.4 million in 1996 versus $14.8 
million in 1995.  The increase in 1996 was primarily due to 
depreciation of properties acquired during 1995 and 1996 and 
amortization of goodwill recorded in connection with the Merger of the 
Advisor.

General and administrative expenses and advisor fees decreased by $1.7 
million to $5.2 million in 1996 versus $6.9 million in 1995.  General 
and administrative expenses were $5.2 million in 1996 versus $3.2 
million in 1995 and advisor fees of $3.7 million in 1995.  The $2.0 
million increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily

                                                          Page 37

due to the Merger of the Advisor.  Subsequent to the Merger, the 
Company commenced paying for management, accounting systems, office 
facilities, professional and support personnel expenses (i.e. costs of 
being self-administered).  Prior to the Merger such costs were the 
responsibility of the Advisor.  General and administrative expenses 
and advisor fees as a percentage of revenue decreased to 9.1% in 1996 
as compared to 13.3% in 1995.

Property expenses were $1.6 million in 1996 and 1995.  Property 
expenses are broken down into costs associated with non-net leased 
multi-tenant properties, unleased single-tenant properties and general 
portfolio expenses.  Expenses related to the multi-tenant and unleased 
single-tenant properties include, but are not limited to, property 
taxes, maintenance, insurance, utilities, property inspections, bad 
debt expense and legal fees.  General portfolio costs include, but are 
not limited to, insurance, legal, property inspections and title 
search fees.  At December 31, 1996, nine properties were available for 
lease as compared to four at December 31, 1995.

Interest expense in 1996 decreased by $275,000 to $2.37 million, as 
compared to $2.64 million in 1995.  The following is a summary of the 
four components of interest expense for 1996 and 1995 (dollars in 
thousands): 

                                      1996       1995       Net Change

                                    =======    =======      ==========

Interest on outstanding loans and notes during 1996 was $266,000 lower 
than in 1995, due to a decrease in the average outstanding balances 
and lower average interest rates on the credit facility and the notes 
issued as part of the Consolidation.  During 1996, the average 
outstanding balances and interest rate on the notes and credit 
facility were $30.7 million and 6.96% as compared to $31.3 million and 
7.68% during 1995.

The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events 
or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the 
asset may not be recoverable. In 1996, a $579,000 charge was taken to 
reduce the net carrying value on four properties because they became 
held for sale.  Three of these properties have been sold.  No charge 
was recorded for an impairment loss in 1995.

                                                          Page 38

During 1996, the Company sold seven properties (five restaurants and 
two multi-tenant locations) for a total of $4.4 million and recorded a 
gain of $1.5 million.  During 1995, the Company sold three properties 
(two child care centers and a multi-tenant location) for $617,000 and 
recognized a gain of $18,000.

In 1996, the Company had net income of $32.2 million versus $25.6 
million in 1995.  The $6.6 million increase in net income is primarily 
due to an increase in rental revenue from 124 properties acquired from 
December 1994 through December 1996 of $5.0 million, an increase in 
the net gain on sales of properties of $1.4 million and a net decrease 
in advisor fees, general and administrative expenses of $1.7 million, 
offset by an increase in depreciation and amortization expense of $1.6 
million. 


IMPACT OF INFLATION
===================

Tenant leases generally provide for limited increases in rent as a 
result of increases in the tenant's sales volumes and/or increases in 
the consumer price index.  Management expects that inflation will 
cause these lease provisions to result in increases in rent over time.  
However, during times when inflation is greater than increases in rent 
as provided for in the leases, rent increases may not keep up with the 
rate of inflation. 
 
Over 98% of the properties in the portfolio are leased to tenants 
under net leases in which the tenant is responsible for property costs 
and expenses.  These features in the leases reduce the Company's 
exposure to rising property expenses due to inflation. 
 
Inflation and increased costs may have an adverse impact on the 
tenants if increases in the tenant's operating expenses exceed 
increases in revenue. 


IMPACT OF ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
===================================

In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued 
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting 
Comprehensive Income" ("Statement No. 130").  Statement No. 130 
establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive 
income and its components (revenue, expenses, gains and losses) in a 
full set of general purpose financial statements, and is effective for 
periods beginning after December 15, 1997.

In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued 
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, "Disclosures 
about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" ("Statement 
No. 131").  Statement No. 131 establishes standards for the way that 

                                                          Page 39

public business enterprises report selected information about 
operating segments in interim financial reports issued to 
shareholders.  It also establishes standards for periods beginning 
after December 15, 1997.

Management believes that the adoption of the aforementioned statements 
will not have a material effect on the manner and nature of 
disclosures currently made by the Company.

                   Independent Auditors' Report
                   ----------------------------

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Realty Income Corporation:


We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Realty Income 
Corporation and subsidiaries as listed in the accompanying table of 
contents.  In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial 
statements, we also have audited the financial statement schedule III 
listed in the accompanying table of contents.  These consolidated 
financial statements and financial statement schedule are the 
responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to 
express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and 
financial statement schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits 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 statements 
are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a 
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the 
financial statements.  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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to 
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position 
of Realty Income Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1997 
and 1996, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for 
each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1997, in 
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.  Also in our 
opinion, the related financial statement schedule III, when considered 
in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a 
whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set 
forth therein.

           REALTY INCOME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
           Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements
           ==========================================
                December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995

1.  Organization and Operation

Realty Income Corporation (the "Company") was organized in the State 
of Delaware in September 1993 to facilitate the merger, which was 
effected on August 15, 1994 (the "Consolidation"), of 10 private and 
15 public real estate limited partnerships with and into the Company.  
In August 1995, the Company became self-administered and self-managed 
after acquiring R.I.C. Advisor, Inc. (the "Advisor").  In May 1997, 
the Company reincorporated as a Maryland corporation pursuant to a 
merger of the Company into a wholly-owned Maryland subsidiary and the 
conversion of each outstanding share of common stock of the Company 
into one share of common stock of the surviving corporation.  The 
Company invests in commercial retail real estate and has elected to be 
taxed as a real estate investment trust ("REIT").  As of December 31, 
1997, the Company owned 826 properties in 43 states.

2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Procedures

Principles of Consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial 
statements include the accounts of the Company and partnerships more 
than 50 percent owned (subsidiaries) after elimination of all material 
intercompany balances and transactions.

Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all short-term, highly liquid 
investments that are readily convertible to cash and have an original 
maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash 
equivalents.

Depreciation and Amortization - Depreciation of buildings and 
improvements, and amortization of goodwill are computed using the 
straight-line method over an estimated useful life of 25 years.

Leases - All leases are accounted for as operating leases.   Under 
this method, lease payments are recognized as revenue over the term of 
the lease on a straight-line basis.

Federal Income Taxes - The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT 
under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  Management 
believes the Company has qualified and continues to qualify as a REIT 
and therefore will be permitted to deduct distributions paid to its 
stockholders, eliminating the federal taxation of income represented 
by such distributions at the Company's level.  Accordingly, no 
provision has been made for federal income taxes in the accompanying 
consolidated financial statements.

2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Distributions Paid and Payable - For the year ended December 31, 1997, 
cash distributions of $1.8925 per share were paid.  The 1997 
distributions consisted of eleven monthly distributions of $0.1575 per 
share and one monthly distribution of $0.16 per share.  As of December 
31, 1997, a distribution of $0.16 per share was declared and payable.  

For the year ended December 31, 1996, cash distributions of $2.0925 
per share were paid.  The 1996 distributions consisted of a special 
distribution of $0.23 per share, eleven monthly distributions of 
$0.155 per share and one distribution of $0.1575 per share.

For the year ended December 31, 1995, cash distributions of $1.825 per 
share were paid.  The 1995 distributions consisted of seven monthly 
distributions of $0.15 per share and five monthly distributions of 
$0.155 per share.  As of December 31, 1995, three distributions 
totaling $0.54 per share were declared and payable.

The following presents the federal income tax characterization of 
distributions paid or deemed to be paid to stockholders for the years 
ended December 31:

                             1997            1996           1995
                            ------          ------         ------
                                                       
Ordinary Income             $1.794          $1.691         $1.876
Return of Capital            0.099           0.257          0.093
                            ------          ------         ------
Totals                      $1.893          $1.948         $1.969
                            ======          ======         ======

For federal income tax purposes, a portion of the distributions 
payable at December 31, 1995, in the amount of $0.144 per share, were 
deemed to be paid in 1995.  This amount is included in the $1.876 per 
share taxable as ordinary income in 1995 and represents the remaining 
portion of taxable earnings and profits which were assumed by the 
Company in the merger with the Advisor.

Provision for Impairment Losses - The Company reviews long-lived 
assets, including goodwill, for impairment whenever events or changes 
in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not 
be recoverable.  Generally, a provision is made for impairment loss if 
estimated future operating cash flows (undiscounted and without 
interest charges) over a long-term holding period plus estimated 
disposition proceeds (undiscounted) are less than the current book 
value.  If a property is held for sale, it is carried at the lower of 
cost or estimated fair value, less costs to sell.  For the years ended 
December 31, 1997 and 1996, provisions for impairment losses of 



                                                          Page 50

2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

$165,000 and $579,000, respectively, were charged to operations to 
reduce the net carrying value of three properties held for sale in 
1997 and four properties held for sale in 1996.  There was no 
provision for impairment losses in 1995.

Net Income Per Share - The Company adopted Statement of Financial 
Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share" ("SFAS No. 128") 
effective for the period ended December 31, 1997.  SFAS No. 128 
simplifies the standards for computing earnings per share and makes 
them comparable to international earnings per share standards.  All 
prior period net income per share data presented were restated to 
conform to SFAS No. 128.

Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the 
weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each 
period.  Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing the 
amount of net income for the period by each share that would have been 
outstanding assuming the issuance of common shares for all dilutive 
potential common shares outstanding during the reporting period.

The following is a reconciliation of the denominator of the basic net 
income per share computation to the denominator of the diluted net 
income per share computation (net income was available to common 
shareholders for all periods presented):

                                     1997         1996         1995
                                  ----------   ----------   ----------

                                  ==========   ==========   ==========

Stock Option Plan - The Company accounts for its stock option plan in 
accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board ("APB") 
Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and 
related interpretations.  As such, compensation expense would be 
recorded on the date of grant only if the current market price of the 
underlying stock exceeded the exercise price.  Statement of Financial 
Accounting Standard No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" 
("SFAS No. 123"), permits entities to recognize as expense over the 
vesting period the fair value of all stock-based awards on the date of 
grant.  Alternatively, SFAS No. 123 allows entities to continue to 
apply the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 and provide pro forma net 
income and pro forma earnings per share disclosures for employee stock

                                                          Page 51

2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

option grants made in 1995 and future years as if the fair-value-based 
method defined in SFAS No. 123 had been applied.  The Company has 
elected to continue to apply the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 and 
provide the pro forma disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123.

Derivative Financial Instrument - The Company had an interest rate 
treasury lock agreement to hedge the effect of interest rate 
fluctuations.  This instrument met the requirement for hedge 
accounting, including a high correlation to a specific transaction.  
Accordingly, the amount received under the terms of the agreement is 
recognized in income when interest expense related to the hedge item 
is recognized.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of the consolidated financial 
statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the 
reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of 
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial 
statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the 
reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

3.  Credit Facility Available for Acquisitions

The Company has a $150 million, three-year, revolving, unsecured 
acquisition credit facility that expires in December 2000.  The credit 
facility is from The Bank of New York, as agent, and several U.S. and 
non-U.S. banks.  In November 1997, the Company obtained a $10 million 
unsecured line of credit with The Bank of New York, which was repaid 
and canceled in January 1998.  As of December 31, 1997 and 1996, the 
outstanding balances on the credit facility and line of credit were 
$22.6 million and $70.0 million, respectively, with an effective 
interest rate of approximately 6.66% and 6.85%, respectively.

The credit facility currently bears interest at 0.85% over the London 
Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") and offers the Company other interest 
rate options.  A facility fee of 0.15%, per annum, accrues on the 
total commitment of the credit facility.

The credit facility is subject to various leverage and interest 
coverage ratio limitations.  The Company is and has been in compliance 
with these limitations.

In 1997, 1996 and 1995, interest of $168,000, $150,000 and $217,000, 
respectively, was capitalized on properties under construction.

4.  Notes Payable

On May 6, 1997, Realty Income issued $110 million of 7.75% unsecured 
notes due May 2007 (the "Notes").  The Notes were sold at 99.929% of 
par for a yield of 7.76%.  After taking into effect the $1.1 million

                                                          Page 52

4.  Notes Payable (continued)

gain realized on the treasury interest rate lock agreement (see note 
5), the effective interest rate to the Company on the Notes is 7.62%.  
The net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes were used to repay 
$93.7 million of outstanding borrowings under the Company's credit 
facility and to acquire properties.  Interest on the Notes is payable 
semiannually each May and November.  Interest incurred on the Notes 
for the year ended December 31, 1997 was $5.5 million.  Currently, 
there is no formal trading market for the Notes and the Company has 
not and does not intend to list the Notes on any securities exchange.

On March 29, 1996, the Company redeemed, at par, the $12.6 million 
principal amount of notes issued at the time of the Consolidation to 
investors in the partnerships.  Interest incurred on the notes for the 
years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 was $217,000 and $997,000, 
respectively.

5.  Derivative Financial Instrument

In December 1996, the Company entered into a treasury interest rate 
lock agreement to hedge against rising interest rates applicable to 
the Notes (see note 4).  Under the terms of the interest rate lock 
agreement, the Company was to receive or make a payment based on the 
differential between a specified interest rate (6.537%) and the actual 
10-year treasury interest rate on notional principal amount of $90 
million, at the end of six months.  Based on the 10-year treasury 
interest rate at May 1, 1997 (the interest rate pricing date), the 
Company realized a $1.1 million gain on the agreement, which was 
received in June 1997. The gain on the agreement is being amortized 
over 10 years (the life of the Notes) as a yield adjustment to 
interest expense.  The Company had only limited involvement with this 
single derivative financial instrument and did not use it for trading 
purposes.

6.  Common Stock Offerings

A.  In February 1998, the Company issued 751,174 shares of common 
stock to a unit investment trust at a net price to the Company of 
$25.295 per share.  The net proceeds of $19.0 million were be used to 
repay borrowings under the credit facility.

B.  In October 1997, the Company issued 2.7 million shares of common 
stock at a price of $27.00 per share.  The net proceeds of $68.7 
million were used to repay borrowings of $62.6 million under the 
credit facility and to acquire properties.

C.  In November 1995, the Company issued 2.54 million shares of common 
stock at a price of $19.625 per share.  Substantially all of the net 
proceeds of $46.6 million were used to repay borrowings under the 
credit facility.

                                                          Page 53

7.  Operating Leases

A.  General - At December 31, 1997, the Company owned 826 properties 
in 43 states.  Of the Company's properties, 819 are single-tenant and 
the remainder are multi-tenant.  At December 31, 1997, eight 
properties were vacant and available for lease or sale.

Substantially all leases are net leases whereby the tenant pays 
property taxes and assessments, maintains the interior and exterior of 
the building, and carries insurance coverage for public liability, 
property damage, fire, and extended coverage.  The Company's net lease 
agreements are generally for initial terms of 10 to 20 years, require 
the tenant to pay a minimum monthly rent and property operating 
expenses (taxes, insurance and maintenance), and provide for future 
rent increases (typically subject to ceilings) based on increases in 
the consumer price index or additional rent calculated as a percentage 
of the tenant's gross sales above a specified level.  Percentage rent 
for 1997, 1996 and 1995 was $1.8 million, $1.7 million and $1.6 
million, respectively.

At December 31, 1997, minimum annual rents to be received on the 
operating leases are as follows (dollars in thousands):

B.  Major Tenants - The following schedule presents rental income, 
including percentage rents, from tenants representing more than 10% of 
the Company's total revenue for at least one of the years ended 
December 31, 1997, 1996 or 1995 (dollars in thousands):

       Tenants                          1997      1996      1995
=========================             =======   =======   =======

Golden Corral Corporation               6,899     7,017     6,550

8.  Property Acquisitions

During 1997, the Company acquired 96 retail properties located in 27 
states for $142.3 million (excluding the estimated unfunded 
development costs of $2.9 million on properties under construction at 
                                                          Page 54

8.  Property Acquisitions (continued)

December 31, 1997).  The 96 properties are 100% leased under net 
leases, with an average initial lease term of 14.4 years.  During 
1996, the Company acquired 62 retail properties located in 22 states 
for $55.5 million, with an average initial lease term of 11.7 years.

9.  Net Gain on Sales of Properties

In 1997, the Company sold ten properties (six restaurants, one 
automotive parts store, one multi-tenant and two child care centers) 
for a total of $4.4 million and recognized a gain of $1.1 million.  In 
1996, the Company sold seven properties (five restaurants and two 
multi-tenant centers) for a total of $4.4 million and recognized a 
gain of $1.5 million.  In 1995, the Company sold three properties (one 
multi-tenant and two childcare centers) for a total of $617,000 and 
recognized a net gain of $18,000.

10.  The Merger of R.I.C. Advisor, Inc.

On August 17, 1995, the Company merged with the Advisor and issued 
990,704 shares of the Company's common stock valued at approximately 
$21.2 million (the "Merger").  The Merger was accounted for using the 
purchase method.  Accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to 
assets acquired based on their estimated fair values.  This treatment 
resulted in approximately $22.9 million of goodwill.  Amortization of 
goodwill for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995 was  
$916,000, $916,000 and $340,000, respectively.

11.  Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Management of the Company believes that the carrying values reflected 
in the balance sheets at December 31, 1997 and 1996 reasonably 
approximate the fair values for cash and cash equivalents, accounts 
receivable, due from affiliates and all liabilities.  In making such 
assessments, the Company utilized estimates and quoted market prices.  
See note 5 for a discussion of the derivative financial instrument

12.  Supplemental Disclosure of Cash Flow Information

Interest paid during 1997, 1996 and 1995 was $6.9 million, $2.0 
million and $2.2 million, respectively.

The following non-cash investing and financing activities are included 
in the accompanying financial statements:

    A.  In 1997, the acquisition of three properties resulted in the 
following (dollars in thousands):

Increases in:
  Land                                               $1,724
  Building                                              227
  Other liabilities                                   1,951

    B.  The Merger of the Advisor into the Company in August 1995 
resulted in the following (dollars in thousands):

Increases in:
  Other assets                                    $ (1,143)
  Goodwill                                         (21,184)
  Common stock retired after the merger             (1,230)
Increases/(decrease) in:
  Other liabilities                                  3,029
  Due to advisor                                        (2)
  Common stock                                         991
  Paid in capital in excess of par value            20,186
                                                  --------
  Cash acquired from Merger                       $    647
                                                  ========

In 1995, other assets of $95,000 were reclassified to goodwill.  
Common stock retired after the Merger includes par value of common 
stock and paid in capital in excess of par value of $58,000 and 
$1,172,000, respectively.

    C.  In 1996 and 1995, pursuant to the assumption of the defined 
benefit pension plan by the Company (see note 14), the Company 
recorded a due from affiliate and a liability (included in other 
liabilities) of $73,000 and $493,000, respectively.  This represents 
the amount of the increase in the liability to the plan, of which the 
Company is indemnified by the former shareholders of the Advisor.

13. Related Party Transactions

The Company paid the Advisor an advisory fee of $3.7 million for the 
period from January 1, 1995 through August 17, 1995.  On August 17, 
1995, the Advisor was merged into the Company and the agreement was 
terminated (see note 10).



                                                          Page 56

14. Employee Benefit Plan

    A.  As a result of the Merger, the Company assumed a defined 
benefit pension plan (the "Plan") covering substantially all of its 
employees.  The board of directors of the Advisor froze the Plan 
effective May 31, 1995 and no additional employees were entitled to 
enter the Plan.  The Plan was terminated on January 2, 1996 and final 
disbursement of the Plan's assets occurred on February 24, 1997.

At December 31, 1996, the benefit obligation in excess of plan assets 
of approximately $2.3 million is included in other liabilities in the 
accompanying balance sheet.  This amount was paid in February 1997.

In connection with the Merger, the Company assumed a benefit 
obligation of $1.9 million.  The Merger agreement provides for 
indemnification by the former shareholders of the Advisor with respect 
to increases in the benefit obligation.   A receivable from the 
Advisor's former shareholders has been recorded as of December 31, 
1997 and 1996 for $348,000 and $383,000, respectively, and is included 
as due from affiliates in the accompanying consolidated balance 
sheets.

    B.  In August 1996, the Company initiated a 401(k) plan.  Under 
the 401(k) plan, employees may elect to make contributions to the 
plan, and the Company matches 50% of such contributions up to 6% of 
each participant's compensation.

15. Stock Incentive Plan

In September 1993, the board of directors of the Company approved a 
stock incentive plan (the "Stock Plan") designed to attract and retain 
directors, officers and employees of the Company by enabling such 
individuals to participate in the ownership of the Company.  The Stock 
Plan authorizes the purchase of up to 500,000 shares of common stock 
and provides for the award (subject to ownership limitations) of a 
broad variety of stock-based compensation alternatives such as 
nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, restricted stock 
and performance awards.

Stock options are granted with an exercise price equal to the 
underlying stock's fair market value at the date of grant.  Stock 
options expire 10 years from the date they are granted and vest over 
service periods of three, four and five years.  At December 31, 1997, 
1996 and 1995, options outstanding totaled 139,500, 73,000 and 30,000, 
respectively.  Prior to December 31, 1997, 189,700 stock options and 
15,800 restricted shares of common stock had been granted under the 
Stock Plan.  Of the stock options granted, 10,489 had been exercised 
and 39,711 had been canceled.  At December 31, 1997, there were 
294,500 additional shares available for grant under the Stock Plan.  

The per share weighted-average fair value of stock options granted 
during 1997 and 1996 was $2.29 on the date of grant using the Binomial 

                                                          Page 57

15. Stock Incentive Plan (continued)

option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:  
1997 - expected dividend yield 9.92%, risk-free interest rate of 6.5%, 
volatility of 18.5% and an expected life of 10 years; 1996 - expected 
dividend yield 9.71%, risk-free interest rate of 6.7%, volatility of 
17.4% and an expected life of 10 years.  No stock options were granted 
during 1995.

The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 in accounting for its Stock 
Plan and, accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for 
its stock options in the consolidated financial statements.  Had the 
Company determined compensation cost based on the fair value at the 
grant date for its stock options under SFAS No. 123, the Company's net 
income would have been reduced to the pro-forma amounts indicated 
below:
