USA REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST
Notes to Financial Statements
1. In the opinion of the Trust, the accompanying unaudited financial
statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly
the Trust's financial position as of March 31, 1995, and the
results of its operations for the three months ended March 31,
1995 and 1994 and cash flows for the months ended March 31, 1995
and 1994.
The accounting policies followed by the Trust are set forth in
Note 1 to the Trust's financial statements in the 1994 Form 10-K,
which are incorporated herein by reference.
2. In 1987, the Trust elected to be taxed as a real estate investment
trust and, as such, will not be taxed on that portion of its
taxable income which is distributed to shareholders provided that
at least 95% of its real estate investment trust taxable income
is distributed.
The Trust intends to continue to qualify as a real estate
investment trust and, accordingly, no provision for income taxes
has been made in the financial statements.

USA REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST
Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Interest revenues decreased $26,442 for the three months ended
March 31, 1995, compared to the same period in 1994, primarily
due to the collection of the $940,000 note receivable
collateralized by 151 and 175 Opportunity Street in December,
1994.
Operating expenses decreased $171,045 for the three months
ended March 31, 1995, compared to the same period in 1994,
primarily due to $149,121 in the cost to repair uninsured
earthquake damage to the property, owned by the Trust, located
at 19401 Parthenia Street, in Northridge, California, incurred
in 1994.
Interest expense decreased $49,676 for the three months ended
March 31, 1995, compared to the same period in 1994, due to
lower outstanding borrowings and lower interest rates.
Property taxes decreased $13,103 for the three months ended
March 31, 1995, compared to the same period in 1994, primarily
because certain properties were reassessed to reflect lower
current values.
Property management decreased $24,305 for the three months
ended March 31, 1995, compared to the same period in 1994,
because of the termination of the former property management
agreement and the hiring of a new property manager who provided
similar service at a reduced cost.
Depreciation and amortization increased $15,740 for the three
months ended March 31, 1995, compared to the same period in
1994, primarily due to the amortization of leasing commissions.
General and administrative expense increased $58,760 for the
three months ended March 31, 1995, compared to the same period
in 1994, primarily due to two factors, first, expenses of
litigation with the former advisor and second, expenses of
preparing, printing and soliciting proxies for the annual
shareholder meeting which did not occur in the three months
ended March 31, 1994.
CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
The Trust anticipates that operating income, property sales and
borrowing collateralized by deeds of trust on specific properties
will provide for its future liquidity and capital resource needs.
