                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS


There has been no significant change in the Trust's liquidity or financial
condition since December 31, 1994.  At present there are no large capital
expenditures planned that would present a liquidity problem.  In the Trust's
Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1994, disclosure was made of the
shareholders' vote to direct the Board of Trustees to develop a plan of
liquidation of the Trust's assets.  Although negotiations are continuing, no
formal sales agreements to sell the Trust's assets have been executed at this
time.  The plan of liquidation must also be approved by the shareholders.  The
Trust intends to continue to distribute as dividends at least 95% of its
taxable income until such time as the plan of liquidation is approved.

Rental income increased by approximately 4% during the three-month period ended
June 30, 1995, as compared to the three-month period ended June 30, 1994.  This
increase is primarily due to recent leases of properties, which were vacant as
of June 30, 1994.  As of June 30, 1995, the Trust had approximately 109,000
square feet of vacant space as compared to approximately 164,000 square feet of
vacant space at June 30, 1994. Total expenses for the three and six-month
period ending June 30, 1995 are consistent with the total expenses reported for
the three and six-month period ending June 30, 1994.

For 1995 and 1994, the Trust has provided for Federal and state income taxes,
assuming a consistent flow of revenue and expenses for the year.  The taxes are
based on estimated taxable income after the 95% dividend distribution required
by IRS code provisions pertaining to real estate investments trusts.

In April of 1995, the Trust sold the Quick Way property located in Anderson,
South Carolina for $85,000.  Due to this sale, a gain of approximately $65,000
has been reported in the second quarter of 1995 for financial statement
purposes and for tax purposes.  In addition, the Trust has one outstanding
offer for the sale of real estate as of the date of this report.  However, no
contract for sale has been entered into at this time.  Based on preliminary
discussions, the Trust anticipates recognizing a profit for financial statement
purposes and for tax purposes if the property is ultimately sold, pursuant to
this outstanding offer.
