                          Independent Auditors' Report

To the Board of Trustees
Continental Mortgage and Equity Trust

We have audited the accompanying statement of revenues and direct operating
expenses of The Amoco Building for the year ended December 31, 1995.  This
statement of revenues and direct operating expenses is the responsibility of
the Property's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this
statement of revenues and direct operating expenses based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about  whether the statement of revenues and direct
operating expenses is free of material misstatement.  An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the statement of revenues and direct operating expenses.  An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall statement of revenues and
direct operating expenses presentation.  We believe that our audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

The accompanying financial statement is prepared for the purpose of complying
with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (for
inclusion in Form 8-K of Continental Mortgage and Equity Trust) and, as
described in Note 1, is not intended to be a complete presentation of the
results of operations.

In our opinion, the statement of revenues and direct operating expenses
referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the revenues and
direct operating expenses of The Amoco Building for the year ended December 31,
1995, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
