                                     PART I

ITEM 1.  BUSINESS

                                  THE COMPANY

   
The Company is one of the largest developers and operators of upscale
multifamily apartment communities in the Southeastern United States.  The
Company currently owns 42 stabilized communities (the "Communities") containing
14,962 apartment units located primarily in metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia and
Tampa, Florida.  In addition, the Company currently has under construction or
in initial lease-up eight new communities and an addition to one existing
community in the Atlanta, Tampa, Northern Virginia, Nashville and Charlotte
metropolitan areas that will contain an aggregate of 3,052 apartment units when
completed.  For the year ended December 31, 1995, the average economic
occupancy rate of the 37 Communities and the first phase of two additional
Communities stabilized for the entire period was 96.0%.  The average monthly
rental rate per apartment unit at these Communities for the same period was
$710.  The Company also manages through affiliates three communities with 866
apartment units under the Post(R) brand name for third parties and
approximately 9,900 additional apartment units owned by third parties.  The
Company is a fully-integrated organization with multifamily development,
acquisition, operation and asset management expertise and has approximately
1,100 employees, none of whom is a party to a collective bargaining agreement.
    

Since founded in 1971, the Company has pursued three distinctive core business
strategies that, for 25 years, have remained substantially unchanged:

Investment Building
Investment building means taking a long-term view of the assets the Company
creates.  The Company develops communities with the intention of operating them
for periods that are relatively long by the standards of the apartment
industry.  Key elements of the Company's investment building strategy include
instilling a disciplined team approach to development decisions; selecting
sites in niche and infill locations in strong primary markets; consistently
constructing new apartment communities with a uniformly high quality; and
conducting ongoing property improvements.

Promotion of the Post(R) Brand Name
The Post(R) brand name strategy has been integral to the success of the Company
and, to the knowledge of the Company, has not been successfully duplicated
within the multifamily real estate industry in any major U.S. market.  For such
a strategy to work, a company must develop and implement systems to achieve
uniformly high quality and value throughout its operations.  As a result of the
Company's efforts in developing and maintaining its communities, the Company
believes that the Post(R) brand name is synonymous with quality upscale
apartment communities that are situated in desirable locations and provide
superior resident service.  Key elements in implementing the Company's brand
name strategy include extensively utilizing the trademarked brand name;
adhering to quality in all aspects of the Company's operations; developing and
implementing leading edge training programs; and coordinating the Company's
advertising programs to increase brand name recognition.

   
Service Orientation
The Company's mission statement is: "To provide the superior apartment living
experience for our residents."  By striving to provide a superior product and
superior service, the Company believes that it will be able to achieve its
long-term goals.  The Company believes that it provides its residents with
superior product and superior service through its uniformly high quality
construction, award winning landscaping and numerous amenities, including on 
site business centers, on site courtesy officers, urban vegetable gardens and 
state of the art fitness centers.
     

The Company believes that with the implementation of these strategies,
multifamily properties in its primary markets have the potential over the long
term to provide investment returns that exceed national averages.  According to
recent market surveys, employment growth, population growth and household
formation growth in the Company's primary markets have exceeded and are
forecasted to continue to exceed national averages.

The Company is a self-administered and self-managed equity real estate
investment trust (a "REIT").  On July 22, 1993 the Company completed an initial
public offering of 10,580,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Initial Offering")
and a business combination involving entities under varying common ownership
(the "Formation Transactions").  On February 7, 1994 the Company completed a
second public offering of 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Second
Offering").  On October 20, 1995 the Company completed a third public offering
of 3,710,500 additional shares of Common Stock (the "Third




                                      1

   3

Offering").  Proceeds from the Initial Offering were used by the Company (i) to
acquire a controlling interest in Post Apartment Homes, L.P. (The "Operating
Partnership"), the Company's principal operating subsidiary, which was formed
to succeed to substantially all of the ownership interest in a portfolio of 40
Post(R) multifamily apartment communities (the "Initial Properties"), all of
which were developed by the Company and owned by affiliates of the Company, and
to the development, leasing, landscaping and management business of the Company
and certain other affiliates and (ii) to pay down existing indebtedness on
certain communities.  Proceeds of the Second and Third Offerings were used by
the Company to pay down existing indebtedness.  The Company is the sole general
partner of, and controls a majority of the limited partnership interests in,
the Operating Partnership.  The Company conducts all of its business through
the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries.

The Company's executive offices are located at 3350 Cumberland Circle, Atlanta,
Georgia 30339 and its telephone number is (770) 850-4400. Post Properties,
Inc., a Georgia corporation, was incorporated on January 25, 1984, and is the
successor by merger to the original Post Properties, Inc., a Georgia
corporation, which was formed in 1971. The Operating Partnership is a Georgia
limited partnership that was formed in July 1993 for the purpose of
consolidating the operating and development businesses of the Company and the
Post(R) apartment portfolio described herein.

THE OPERATING PARTNERSHIP

The Operating Partnership, through the operating divisions and subsidiaries
described below, is the entity through which all of the Company's operations
are conducted. At December 31, 1995, the Company controlled the Operating
Partnership as the sole general partner and as the holder of an 80.8% interest
in the Operating Partnership. The other limited partners of the Operating
Partnership are those persons (including certain officers and directors of the
Company) who, at the time of the Initial Offering, elected to hold all or a
portion of their interest in the Company in the form of units in the Operating
Partnership ("Units") rather than receiving shares of Common Stock. Each Unit
may be redeemed by the holder thereof for either one share of Common Stock or
cash equal to the fair market value thereof at the time of such redemption, at
the option of the Company. The Company presently anticipates that it will elect
to issue shares of Common Stock in connection with each such redemption rather
than paying cash (and has done so in all redemptions to date). With each
redemption of outstanding Units for Common Stock, the Company's percentage
ownership interest in the Operating Partnership will increase. In addition,
whenever the Company issues shares of Common Stock, the Company will contribute
any net proceeds therefrom to the Operating Partnership and the Operating
Partnership will issue an equivalent number of Units to the Company.

As sole general partner, the Company has the exclusive power under the
agreement of limited partnership of the Operating Partnership to manage and
conduct the business of the Operating Partnership, subject to the consent of
the holders of the Units in connection with the sale of all or substantially
all of the assets of the Operating Partnership or in connection with a
dissolution of the Operating Partnership. The board of directors of the Company
manages the affairs of the Company by directing the affairs of the Operating
Partnership. The Operating Partnership cannot be terminated, except in
connection with a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Company, for a period of 50 years without a vote of limited partners of the
Operating Partnership. The Company's limited and general partner interests in
the Operating Partnership entitle it to share in cash distributions from, and
in the profits and losses of, the Operating Partnership in proportion to the
Company's percentage interest therein and entitle the Company to vote on all
matters requiring a vote of the limited partners.

As part of the formation of the Operating Partnership, a new holding company,
Post Services, Inc. ("Post Services") was organized as a separate corporate
subsidiary of the Operating Partnership. Post Services, in turn, owns all the
outstanding stock of three operating subsidiaries, RAM Partners, Inc. ("RAM"),
Post Asset Management, Inc. ("Post Asset Management") and Post Landscape
Services, Inc. ("Post Landscape"). Certain officers and directors of the
Company received 99%, collectively, of the voting common stock of Post
Services, and the Operating Partnership received 1% of the voting common stock
and 100% of the nonvoting common stock of Post Services. The voting and
nonvoting common stock of Post Services held by the Operating Partnership
represents 99% of the equity interests therein. The voting common stock held by
officers and directors in Post Services is subject to an agreement that is
designed to ensure that the stock will be held by one or more officers of Post
Services. The by-laws of Post Services provide that a majority of the board of
directors of Post Services must be persons who are not employees, members of
management or affiliates of the Company or its subsidiaries. This by-law
provision cannot be amended without the vote of 100% of the outstanding voting
common stock of Post Services.  Post Services currently has the same board of
directors as the Company.

OPERATING DIVISIONS

The major operating divisions of the Company include:

Post Management Services
Post Management Services is responsible for the day-to-day operations of all
the Post(R) communities and is itself comprised of two divisions: one
responsible for community leasing, property management and personnel
recruiting, training and development, and the other for maintenance and
security. Post Management Services also conducts short-term leasing activities.
The division is the largest in the Company with approximately 430 full-time
employees.

Post Apartment Development
Post Apartment Development conducts the development and construction activities
of the Company. Development activities include site selection, zoning and
regulatory approvals, project design, and the full range of construction
management services. The division is currently comprised of approximately 100
full-time employees.

Post Landscape Operations
This division works closely with Post Apartment Development in the initial
design of each Post(R) community and then has primary responsibility for
maintaining each community's landscape. The division maintains each community's
grounds on a cost effective basis for seasonal impact and has earned national
recognition for the Company. It is comprised of approximately 50 full-time and
part-time employees with professionals specializing in landscape architecture,
horticulture, floriculture, and general landscape maintenance.

Post Corporate Services
Post Corporate Services provides executive direction and control to the
Company's other divisions and subsidiaries and has responsibility for the
creation and implementation of all Company financing and capital strategies.
All accounting, management reporting, and insurance services required by the
Company and all of its affiliates are centralized in Post Corporate Services.
The division currently employs approximately 45 full-time employees.

OPERATING SUBSIDIARIES

The operating subsidiaries of the Company, each of which is wholly owned by
Post Services, include:

RAM
RAM provides third party asset management and leasing services for multifamily
properties that do not operate under the Post(R) name. RAM's clients include
pension funds, independent private investors, financial institutions and
insurance companies. RAM's asset management contracts generally are subject to
annual renewal or are terminable upon specified notice. As of February 29,
1996, RAM managed 40 properties (located in Georgia, California, Florida, North
Carolina, and Virginia) with approximately 9,900 units under management. RAM
currently has approximately 295 full-time employees.

Post Asset Management
Post Asset Management currently provides management services to three Post(R)
communities (866 apartment units) owned by third parties, which were originally
developed by the Company but sold prior to the Initial Offering. Use of the
Post(R) name and other of the Company's federally registered service marks in
connection with each such community is limited to the period during which the
Company continues to manage the community. Post Asset Management employs
approximately 50 full-time employees.

Post Landscape
As a result of the reputation the Company developed in connection with the
landscaping of Post(R) communities, in 1990 the Company began providing third
party landscape services for clients other than Post(R) communities. Projects
with third parties include the maintenance and design of the landscape for
office parks, commercial buildings and other commercial enterprises, and
private residences. Post Landscape provides such third party landscape services
and it employs approximately 110 full-time employees.

HISTORY OF POST PROPERTIES, INC.

The Company and its affiliates have developed a total of 67 Post(R) upscale
garden and mid-rise apartment communities containing approximately 21,200
apartment units. Of these communities, 42 communities comprising 14,962
apartment units are owned by the Operating Partnership in fee simple or
pursuant to a long-term ground lease, and are operated by the Operating
Partnership. The Company and its affiliates sold 25 communities between 1972
and 1995 to parties not affiliated with the Company, three of which the Company
continues to manage under the Post(R) name.  Eight additional Post(R)
communities and additions to an existing community are currently under
construction and are owned and operated by the Operating Partnership.

During the five-year period from January 1, 1991 through December 31, 1995, the
Company and its affiliates developed and completed 2,953 apartment units in 15
apartment communities and sold three apartment communities containing an
aggregate of 568 apartment units. The Company has developed its apartment
communities to the Company's specifications as opposed to buying and
refurbishing existing properties built by others. The Company and its
affiliates have sold apartment communities after holding them for investment
periods that typically have been seven to twelve years after development.  The
following table shows the results of the Company's developments during this
period:

The Company has also acquired two parcels in Atlanta on which it plans to build
new communities.  Construction is expected to begin on one of these parcels in
1996.  The Home Depot, Inc. is constructing its corporate headquarters campus
and extensive infrastructure improvements are being made by the county adjacent
to the other parcel.  The Company will review its development plan for this
parcel closer to completion of these improvements.  The Company is also
currently conducting feasibility and other pre-development studies for possible
new Post(R) communities in its primary market areas.

COMPETITION

All of the Communities are located in developed areas that include other
upscale apartments. The number of competitive upscale apartment properties in a
particular area could have a material effect on the Company's ability to lease
apartment units at the Communities or at any newly developed or acquired
communities and on the rents charged. The Company may be competing with others
that have greater resources than the Company. In addition, other forms of
residential properties, including single family housing, provide housing
alternatives to potential residents of upscale apartment communities.

AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT

The Communities and any newly acquired apartment communities must comply with
Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act (the "ADA") to the extent that
such properties are "public accommodations" and/or "commercial facilities" as
defined by the ADA. Compliance with the ADA requirements could require removal
of structural barriers to handicapped access in certain public areas of the
Company's Communities where such removal is readily achievable. The ADA does
not, however, consider residential properties, such as apartment communities,
to be public accommodations or commercial facilities, except to the extent
portions of such facilities, such as the leasing office, are open to the
public. The Company believes that its properties comply with all present
requirements under the ADA and applicable state laws. Noncompliance could
result in imposition of fines or an award of damages to private litigants. If
required to make material additional changes, the Company's results of
operations could be adversely affected.

ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS

The Company is subject to Federal, state and local environmental regulations
that apply to the development of real property, including construction
activities, the ownership of real property, and the operation of multifamily
apartment communities.

In developing properties and constructing apartments, the Company utilizes
environmental consultants to determine whether there are any flood plains,
wetlands or environmentally sensitive areas that are part of the property to be
developed. If flood plains are identified, development and construction is
planned so that flood plain areas are preserved or alternative flood plain
capacity is created in conformance with Federal and local flood plain
management requirements.

Stormwater discharge from a construction facility is evaluated in connection
with the requirements for stormwater permits under the Clean Water Act. This is
an evolving program in most states. The Company currently anticipates it will
be able to obtain stormwater permits for existing or new development.

The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, 42
U.S.C. sec. 9601 et seq. ("CERCLA"), and applicable state superfund laws
subject the owner of real property to claims or liability for the costs of
removal or remediation of hazardous substances that are disposed of on real
property in amounts that require removal or remediation. Liability under CERCLA
and applicable state superfund laws can be imposed on the owner of real
property or the operator of a facility without regard to fault or even
knowledge of the disposal of hazardous substances on the property or at the
facility. The presence of hazardous substances in amounts requiring response
action or the failure to undertake remediation where it is necessary may
adversely affect the owner's ability to sell real estate or borrow money using
such real estate as collateral. In addition to claims for cleanup costs, the
presence of hazardous substances on a property could result in a claim by a
private party for personal injury or a claim by an adjacent property owner for
property damage.

The Company has instituted a policy that requires an environmental
investigation of each property that it considers for purchase or that it owns
and plans to develop. The environmental investigation is conducted by a
qualified environmental consultant. If there is any indication of
contamination, sampling of the property is performed by the environmental
consultant. The environmental investigation report is reviewed by the Company
and counsel prior to purchase of any property. If necessary, remediation of
contamination, including underground storage tanks, is undertaken prior to
development.

The Company has not been notified by any governmental authority of any
noncompliance, claim, or liability in connection with any of the Communities.
The Company has not been notified of a claim for personal injury or property
damage by a private party in connection with any of the Communities in
connection with environmental conditions. The Company is not aware of any other
environmental condition with respect to any of the Communities that could be
considered to be material.

The Company developed and currently manages all of the Communities.
Twenty-eight of  the Communities have in excess of 300 apartment units, with
the largest Community having a total of 770 apartment units. The oldest of the
Communities was first occupied in 1977 and 37 of the 42 Communities, comprising
approximately 90% of such Communities' apartment units, were completed after
January 1, 1986. The average economic occupancy rate for communities stabilized
for each of the entire years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 was 96.0% and
96.5% respectively. The average monthly rental rate per unit (stabilized
communities) during 1995 and 1994 was $710 and $668, respectively. See
"Selected Financial Information".

(3) The dividend paid by the Company for the portion of the quarter ended
    September 30, 1993 after the Initial Offering was $.320 per share of Common
    Stock, which is an amount equivalent to a quarterly distribution of $.415
    per share (which, if annualized, would equal $1.66 per share).

   
(4) The Company considers funds from operations, as defined by the National
    Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"), to be an
    appropriate measure of the performance of an equity REIT.  For periods
    ended prior to January 1, 1996, funds from operations was defined by NAREIT
    to mean net income (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP, excluding
    gains (or losses) from debt restructuring and sales of property, plus
    depreciation and amortization, and after adjustment for unconsolidated
    partnerships and joint ventures.  Funds from operations should not be
    considered as an alternative to net income (as determined in accordance
    with GAAP) as an indicator of the Company's financial performance or to
    cash flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP)
    as a measure of the Company's liquidity, nor is it necessarily indicative
    of sufficient cash flow to fund all of the Company's needs.  Adjustments
    for all periods, as applicable,  consisted only of minority interest of
    unitholders in the Operating Partnership, gain on sale of real estate
    assets (net of income taxes), depreciation and amortization, amortization
    of deferred swap gain  and extraordinary items.  In March 1995, the NAREIT
    modified the definition of funds from operations ("FFO"), among other
    things, to eliminate amortization of deferred financing costs and
    depreciation of non-real estate assets as items added back to net income
    when computing FFO.  The modified definition of FFO became effective for
    periods ended after December 31, 1995.  Under the modified definition, FFO
    for the year ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 would have been $56,798 and
    $47,616 respectively.  Since all companies do not calculate FFO in
    accordance with NAREIT's modified definition, the Company's FFO  is only
    comparable to those companies using NAREIT's modified definition.
    

(5) Amount represents average economic occupancy for communities stabilized for
    both the current and prior respective periods.  Average economic occupancy
    is defined as gross potential rent less vacancy losses, model expenses and
    bad debt divided by gross potential rent for the period, expressed as a
    percentage.  The calculation of average economic occupancy does not include
    a deduction for concessions and employee discounts (average economic
    occupancy, taking account of these amounts, would have been 95.5% and 95.9%
    for the year ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively).  For the year
    ended December 31, 1995, concessions were $296 and employee discounts were
    $213.  A community is considered by the Company to have achieved stabilized
    occupancy on the earlier to occur of (i) attainment of 95% physical
    occupancy on the first day of any month (ii) one year after completion of
    construction.

ITEM 7.          MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                 CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 
                 (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AND APARTMENT UNIT 
                 DATA)
OVERVIEW

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with all of the
financial statements appearing elsewhere in this report. The following
discussion is based primarily on the Consolidated Financial Statements of Post
Properties, Inc.

During the fourth quarter of 1995, the Company completed a public equity
offering (the "Third Offering") of 3,710,500 shares of Common Stock.  The net
proceeds of $105,278 were used to reduce debt.  As of December 31, 1995, there
were 26,716,879 units outstanding, of which 21,577,636, or 80.8%, were owned by
the Company and 5,139,243, or 19.2% were owned by other limited partners 
(including certain officers and directors of the Company).

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995, 1994 AND 1993

The Company  recorded net income of $29,118 for the year ended December 31,
1995 primarily as a result of increased rental rates for fully stabilized
communities and an increase in units placed in service.  This is compared to
net income of $18,899 for the year ended December 31, 1994 and a net loss of
($5,223) for the year ended December 31, 1993.  The increase in net income in
1994 was primarily due to lower interest expense as a result of the repayment
or economic defeasance of debt with proceeds of the Initial Offering and the
Second Offering.

COMMUNITY OPERATIONS

The Company's net income is generated primarily from the operation of its
apartment communities.  For purposes of evaluating comparative operating
performance, the Company categorizes its operating communities based on the
period each community reaches stabilized occupancy.  A community is generally
considered by the Company to have achieved stabilized occupancy on the earlier
to occur of (i) attainment of 95% physical occupancy on the first day of any
month or (ii) one year after completion of construction.

At December 31, 1995, the Company's portfolio of apartment communities
consisted of thirty-four communities and the first phase of two additional
communities which were completed and stabilized for all of the current and
prior year, three communities which achieved full stabilization during the
prior year, three communities and the second phase of an existing community
which reached stabilization during the current year and eight communities and a
second phase of an existing community in the development or lease-up stage.  In
addition, during the third quarter of 1995, the Company sold three of its
operating communities which it had previously developed and operated.

For communities with respect to which construction is completed and the
community has become fully operational, all property operating and maintenance
expenses are expensed as incurred and those recurring and non-recurring
expenditures relating to acquiring new assets, materially enhancing the value
of an existing asset, or substantially extending the useful life of an existing
asset are capitalized. (See "Capitalization of Fixed Assets and Community
Improvements").

The Company has adopted an accounting policy related to communities in the
development and lease-up stage whereby substantially all operating expenses
(including pre-opening marketing expenses) are expensed as incurred.  The
Company treats each unit in an apartment community separately for cost
accumulation, capitalization and expense recognition purposes.  Prior to the
commencement of leasing activities, interest and other construction costs are
capitalized and reflected on the balance sheet as construction in progress.
Once a unit is placed in service, all operating expenses allocated to that
unit, including interest, are expensed as incurred.  During the lease-up phase,
the sum of interest expense on completed units and other operating expenses
(including pre-opening marketing expenses) will typically exceed rental
revenues, resulting in a "lease-up deficit," which continues until such time as
rental revenues exceed such expenses.

Therefore, in order to evaluate the operating performance of its communities,
the Company has presented financial information which summarizes the revenue in
excess of specified expense on a comparative basis  for all of its operating
communities combined and for communities which have reached stabilization prior
to January 1, 1994.  The Company has





                                       17

also presented quarterly financial information reflecting the dilutive impact
of lease-up deficits incurred for communities in the development and lease-up
stage and not yet operating at break-even.  In this presentation, only those
Communities which were dilutive during each period are included and,
accordingly, different communities may be included in each period.

All Operating Communities

The operating performance for all of the Company's apartment communities
combined for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 is summarized as
follows:

Rental and other revenue increased for 1995 and 1994 primarily as a result of
increased rates for fully stabilized communities and an increase in units
placed in service. Rental and other revenue from communities stabilized since
January 1, 1994, increased $5,627 from 1994 to 1995 primarily as a result of
higher rental rates. Rental and other revenue from all other communities
increased by $12,700 from 1994 to 1995 primarily due to additional units placed
in service.  On September 13, 1995, the Company  sold three communities, all of
which had been previously included in the fully stabilized community group and
are now shown separately.

Property operating and maintenance expenses (exclusive of depreciation and
amortization) increased from 1993 to 1994 and 1994 to 1995 primarily due to the
increase in the units placed in service.

FULLY STABILIZED COMMUNITIES

The Company defines fully stabilized communities as those which have reached
stabilization prior to the beginning of the previous calendar year.

The operating performance of the 34 communities and the first phase of two
additional communities containing an aggregate of 13,428 units which were fully
stabilized as of January 1, 1994, are summarized as follows:

(1)  In addition to those expenses which relate to property operations, the
     Company incurs recurring and non-recurring expenditures relating to
     acquiring new assets, materially enhancing the value of an existing asset,
     or substantially extending the useful life of an existing asset, all of
     which are capitalized.  For the year ended December 31, 1995 and 1994,
     recurring expenditures were $1,601 and $1,470, or $119 and $109 on a per
     unit basis, respectively.

(2)  Average economic occupancy is defined as gross potential rent less vacancy
     losses, model expenses and bad debt divided by gross potential rent for
     the period, expressed as a percentage.  The calculation of average
     economic occupancy does not include a deduction for concessions and
     employee discounts.  (Average economic occupancy, taking account of these
     amounts would have been 95.5%, 96.1% and 93.8% for the year ended December
     31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.)  For the year ended December 31,
     1995, concessions were $296 and employee discounts were $213.

(3)  Average monthly rental rate is defined as the average of the gross actual
     rental rates for leased units and the average of the anticipated rental
     rates for unoccupied units.

Rental and other revenue increased from 1994 to 1995 due to higher rental rates
with occupancy slightly declining.  Property operating and maintenance expenses
(exclusive of depreciation and amortization) increased $1,761, or 4.8%.  Ad
valorem real estate taxes increased from $9,376 in 1994 to $10,340 in 1995, an
increase of 10.3%.  This increase alone accounted for 55% of the overall
operating expense increase.  The remaining increase was primarily due to modest
increases in utilities, advertising and promotion and building repairs and
maintenance offset by a modest decrease in landscaping and grounds and
maintenance expense.

Rental and other revenue increased from 1993 to 1994 as a result of increased
rental rates and occupancy.  The modest increase in property and maintenance
expense from 1993 to 1994 was primarily due to increases in real estate taxes,
insurance and personnel costs which were partially offset by reductions in
advertising and promotion expense due to lower vacancies.  In addition,
utilities expense remained relatively flat despite rising rates due to the
effect of installation of cost saving devices and implemented cost controls.
Building repairs and maintenance increased from 1993 to 1994 due to various
cost reduction programs implemented at the communities and cost savings
achieved as grounds matured during the period.

Lease-up Deficits

As noted in the overview of Community Operations, the Company has adopted an
accounting policy related to communities in the development and lease-up stage
whereby substantially all operating expenses (including pre-opening marketing
expenses) are expensed as incurred.  The Company treats each unit in an
apartment community separately for cost accumulation, capitalization and
expense recognition purposes.  Prior to the commencement of leasing activities,
interest as well as other construction costs are capitalized and reflected on
the balance sheet as construction in progress.  Once a unit is placed in
service, all expenses allocated to that unit, including interest, are expensed
as incurred.  During the lease-up phase, the sum of interest expense on
completed units and other operating expenses (including pre-opening marketing
expenses) will typically exceed rental revenues, resulting in a "lease-up
deficit," which continues until rental revenues exceed such expenses.

In this presentation, only those communities which were dilutive during each
period are included in that period and, accordingly, different communities may
be included in different periods.

For each quarter of the year ended December 31, 1995, the "lease-up deficit"
charged to and included in results of operations are summarized  as follows:

The Company provides asset management, leasing and other consulting services to
non-related owners of apartment communities through two of its subsidiaries,
RAM and Post Asset Management.

The operating performance of RAM and Post Asset Management for the
years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 are summarized as follows:

The change in property management revenues and expenses from 1994 to 1995 and
1993 to 1994 is primarily attributable to the change in the average number and
the average gross revenues of units managed.

The decreases in property management revenues and the related expenses for 1995
to 1994 were primarily due to the reduction in the average number of apartment
units managed during the periods.  These reductions were primarily due to
cancellation of three management contracts during 1993 and one during 1994 for
communities developed by the Company and sold to third-party owners prior to
the Initial Offering.  Two additional contracts were cancelled effective in
January 1996.  The Company expects income from Post Asset Management to
continue to decline as contracts are cancelled and not replaced.

THIRD PARTY LANDSCAPE SERVICES

1995, 1994 and 1993 are summarized as follows:

The change in landscape services revenue, landscape services expense and
general and administrative expense from 1994 to 1995 is primarily due to an
increase in landscape contracts.  Revenues and expenses for 1993 and 1994
remained consistent.

OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSES

   
Depreciation and amortization expense increased from 1993 to 1994 and from 1994 
to 1995 primarily due to the completion of new communities.  
    

Interest expense increased from 1994 to 1995 due to additional outstanding
borrowings until the time of the Third Offering.  The decrease from 1993 to
1994 is primarily due to the repayment or economic defeasance of debt with
proceeds of the Initial Offering and Second Offering.

   
Amortization of deferred loan costs, interest rate protection agreement and 
swap gain increased from 1993 to 1994 due to lower amortization of swap gain 
from the extinguishment of debt with the proceeds of the Initial Offering and 
Second Offering.
    

General and administrative expense remained relatively consistent from 1994 to
1995.  The increase from 1993 to 1994 is due to increased costs associated with
operating a public company, write-off of costs ($282) relating to abandoned
development projects and additional incentive based executive compensation.

REIT formation expense was incurred during the year ended December 31, 1993
relating to legal, accounting and other costs arising in connection with the
business combination completed at the time of the Initial Offering.

Gain on sale of real estate assets during 1995 and 1994 resulted from the sale
of three communities and a parcel of land, respectively.

The extraordinary item of $870, $3,293 and $7,855 for the years ended December
31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 net of minority interest portion, resulted from the
costs associated with the early retirement of debt.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

   
Liquidity

The Company's net cash provided by operating activities increased from
$2,412 in 1993 to $43,807 in 1994, principally due to decreased interest
expense ($18,063) resulting from retirements of debt with contributions from
the Company of proceeds from the Initial and Second Offerings, increased
property revenue in excess of specified expenses ($8,931) and 1993
non-recurring payments for debt prepayment penalties ($13,803) and REIT
formation expense ($2,783), and increased from $43,807 in 1994 to $57,362 in
1995, principally due to increased property operating income.  Net cash used in
investing activities increased from $51,152 in 1993 to $99,364 in 1994,
principally due to the increase in spending on new community development, and
increased from $99,364 in 1994 to $114,531 in 1995, principally due to a
$27,740 increase in spending on new community development and acquisition
activity offset by an increase in net proceeds of $15,152 from the sale of real
estate assets.  The Company's net cash provided by financing activities
decreased from $49,647 in 1993 to $46,508 in 1994, principally due to the
effects of contributions from the Company of proceeds from the Initial and 
Second Offering and the payment of dividends in 1994, and increased from 
$46,508 in 1994 to $60,885 in 1995, primarily due to the effects of the Third 
Offering, the Company's dividend reinvestment plan ("DRIP"), additional 
borrowings and dividend  payments.  During 1995, the Company received $16,171 
through its DRIP.
    

The Company has elected to be taxed as a Real Estate Investment Trust ("REIT")
under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended, commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 1993.  REITs are
subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a
requirement that they currently distribute 95% of their ordinary taxable
income.  As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to Federal income
tax on net income.

At December 31, 1995, the Company had total indebtedness of $349,719 and cash
and cash equivalents of $9,008.  The Company's indebtedness includes
approximately $58,545 in conventional mortgages payable and $145,174 in
tax-exempt bond indebtedness secured by communities, senior unsecured notes of
$100,000, and borrowings under an unsecured line of credit totalling
approximately $46,000.    

The Company expects to meet its short-term liquidity requirements generally
through its net cash provided by operations and borrowings under credit
arrangements and expects to meet certain of its long-term liquidity
requirements, such as scheduled debt maturities, repayment of financing of
construction and development activities and possible property acquisitions,
through long-term secured and unsecured borrowings, possible sale of properties
and the issuance of debt securities or additional equity securities of the
Company, or, possibly in connection with acquisitions of land or improved
properties, Units of the Operating Partnership.  The Company believes that its
net cash provided by operations will be adequate and anticipates that it will
continue to be adequate to meet both operating requirements and payment of
dividends by the Company in accordance with REIT requirements in both the short
and the long term.  The budgeted expenditures for improvements and renovations
to certain of the communities are expected to be funded from property
operations.

   
Line of Credit
On February 1, 1995, the Company closed a 39-month unsecured revolving line of
credit (the "Revolver") in the amount of $180,000 with a bank syndicate to
provide funding for future construction, acquisitions and general business
obligations.  Borrowings under the Revolver initially bore interest at LIBOR
plus 1.50% or prime minus .25%.  On March 1, 1996 the Revolver was amended to
reduce the interest rate to LIBOR plus 0.95% or prime minus .25% and to extend
the maturity to May 1, 1999.  The amendment also provides for the rate to be
adjusted up or down based on changes in the Company's rating on senior
unsecured debt.  On June 4, 1996, the Company received an upgrade on its senior
unsecured corporate credit rating, which furthur reduced the interest rate on
the Revolver to LIBOR plus 0.80%.  The credit agreement for the Revolver
contains customary representations, covenants and events of default, including
covenants which restrict the ability of the Operating Partnership to make
distributions, in excess of stated amounts, which in turn restricts the
discretion of the Company to declare and pay dividends.  In general, during any
fiscal year the Operating Partnership may only distribute up to 100% of
Operating Partnership's consolidated income available for distribution (as
defined in the credit agreement) exclusive of distributions of up to $30,000 of
capital gains  for such year.  The credit agreement contains exceptions to
these limitations to allow the Operating Partnership to make distributions
necessary to allow the Company to maintain its status as a REIT.  The Company
does not anticipate that this covenant will adversely affect the ability of the

rate of 8.21% per annum (1.25% over the corresponding treasury rate on the date
such rate was set) and matures on June 7, 2000; and the second, aggregating

to an additional $114,733 ($9,354 of which is currently defeased) with respect
to eleven other bond issues which mature and may be refunded in 1996 through
1998.  Under this agreement, on January 1, 1996, the Post Mill bonds were
refunded in the amount of $12,880 ($3,864 of which had previously been
defeased) with an issue enhanced by FNMA and maturing on June 1, 2025.  The
agreement with FNMA contains representations, covenants, and events of default
customary to such secured loans.

     penalties.  All dates listed are final maturity dates assuming the
     exercise of any available extension option by the Company.
(2)  On January 1, 1996, this bond was refunded with an issue having a maturity
     date of June 1, 2025 and an interest rate of SunTrust Bank, Atlanta
     Non-AMT "AAA" tax free rate plus a credit enhancement fee of .575%.

     respective bond indebtedness.
(5)  Subject to certain conditions at re-issuance, the credit enhancement runs
     to June 1, 2025.  
(6)  On March 15, 1996, this mortgage was repaid with proceeds drawn on the

(7)  On March 1, 1996, the Line of Credit was amended to reduce the interest 
     rate to LIBOR plus 0.95% or prime minus 0.25% and extend the maturity to 
     May 1, 1999. On June 4, 1996, the Company received an upgrade on its

Refundable Tax Exempt Bonds
The Company has previously issued tax-exempt bonds, secured by certain
communities, totalling $235,880, of which $90,706  has been economically
defeased at December 31, 1995, leaving $145,174 of principal amount of
tax-exempt bonds outstanding at December 31, 1995.  As of December 31, 1995,
$39,795 of the bonds outstanding have  been reissued with a maturity of June 1,
2025.  The remaining outstanding bonds, together with the economically defeased
bonds, mature and may be reissued, during the years 1996 through 1998. On
January 1, 1996, the Post Mill bonds were refunded in the amount of $12,880
($3,864 of which had previously been defeased) with an issue enhanced by FNMA
and maturing on June 1, 2025.  The Company has chosen economic defeasance of
the bond obligations rather than a legal defeasance in order to preserve the
legal right to refund such obligations on a tax-exempt basis at the stated
maturity if the Company then determines that such refunding is beneficial to
the Company.

The following table shows the amount of bonds (both defeased and outstanding)
at December 31, 1995, which the Company may reissue during the years 1996

(1)  Represents estimated total development costs, including capitalized
     construction costs, lease-up deficits, and all construction period interest
     (whether expensed or capitalized for financial reporting purposes.) 
(2)  Construction cost expended to date includes all costs associated with the
     development and lease-up of the community, as of December 31, 1995, 
     including interest and other start-up costs which are expensed in the 
     Company's consolidated financial statements. The costs which were 
     expensed amounted to approximately $2,451 at December 31, 1995.
(3)  Community classified as land held for future development on the December
     31, 1995 consolidated balance sheet.

Land
The Company has acquired three parcels of land on which it plans to build new
communities.  One of the parcels contained existing apartment buildings which
were demolished after year-end.  The Company is also currently conducting
feasibility and other pre-development studies for possible new Post(R)
communities in its primary market areas.

Other Activities
As of September 1, 1995, the Company acquired the 49.99% interest in Post Woods
that was held by a third party. The third party exercised its right to require
the Company to purchase its interest, and the Company purchased the interest
for $10,149 in cash and the assumption of the third party's share of
partnership liabilities.

On September 13, 1995, the Company sold three communities located in Florida
for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $22,645. The sale of these
communities in Daytona, Boynton Beach and Merritt Island, Florida, is
consistent with the Company's strategy of selling communities that no longer
meet the Company's existing ownership criteria. The communities will not be
managed by the Company and hence, will no longer be operated under the Post(R)
name.

Capitalization of Fixed Assets and Community Improvements
The Company has established a policy of capitalizing those expenditures
relating to acquiring new assets, materially enhancing the value of an existing
asset, or substantially extending the useful life of an existing asset.  All
expenditures necessary to maintain a community in ordinary operating condition
are expensed as incurred.  During the first five years of a community (which
corresponds to the estimated depreciable life), carpet replacements are
expensed as incurred.  Thereafter, carpet replacements are capitalized.

Acquisition of assets and community improvement expenditures for the year ended
December 31, 1995 and 1994 are summarized as follows:

INFLATION

Substantially all of the leases at the Communities allow, at the time of
renewal, for adjustments in the rent payable thereunder, and thus may enable
the Company to seek increases in rents.  The substantial majority of these
leases are for one year or less and the remaining leases are for up to two
years.  At the expiration of a lease term, the Company's lease agreements
provide that the term will be extended unless either the Company or the lessee
gives at least sixty (60) days written notice of termination; in addition, the
Company's policy permits the earlier termination of a lease by a lessee upon
thirty (30) days written notice to the Company and the payment of one month's
additional rent as compensation for early termination.  The short-term nature
of these leases generally serves to reduce the risk to the Company of the
adverse effect of inflation.

FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS AND CASH AVAILABLE FOR DISTRIBUTION

Historical Funds from Operations
The Company considers  funds from operations ("FFO") an appropriate measure of
performance of an equity REIT.  For





                                       29

periods ended prior to January 1, 1996, funds from operations was defined to
mean net income (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or
losses) from debt restructuring and sales of property, plus depreciation and
amortization, and after adjustment for unconsolidated partnerships and joint
ventures.  Funds  from operations should not be considered as an alternative to
net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of the
Company's financial performance or to cash flow from operating activities
(determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of the Company's liquidity,
nor is it necessarily indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of the
Company's needs.  Cash available for distribution is defined as FFO less
capital expenditures funded by operations and loan amortization payments.  The
Company believes that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of the
consolidated historical operating results of the Company, funds from operations
and cash available for distribution should be examined in conjunction with net
income as presented in the consolidated financial statements and data included
elsewhere in this report.

Funds from operations and cash available for distribution for the year ended
December 31, 1995 and 1994 presented on a historical basis are summarized in

(1)            In March 1995, NAREIT modified the definition of FFO, among
               other things, to eliminate amortization of deferred financing
               costs and depreciation of non-real estate assets as items added
               back to net income when computing FFO.  The modified definition
               of FFO became effective for periods ended after December 31,
               1995.  Under the modified definition, FFO for the year ended
               December 31, 1995 and 1994 would have been $56,798 and $47,616,
               respectively.  Since all companies do not calculate FFO in
               accordance with NAREIT's modified definition, the Company's FFO 
               is only comparable to those companies using NAREIT's modified 
               definition.
    

(2)            Recurring capital expenditures consisted primarily of $897 and
               $729 of carpet replacement, $803 and $1,087 of other additions
               and improvements to existing communities, $1,267 and $783 of
               capitalized expenditures at the corporate level for the year
               ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

(3)            Non-recurring capital expenditures consisted of the additions of
               vehicle access control gates to communities of $428 and $1,302
               and the additions of resident garages to certain communities
               of $859 and $0, for the years ended December 31, 1995 and
               1994, respectively.

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Post Properties, Inc.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the index
appearing under Item 14(a) 1. and 2. on page 33 present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Post Properties, Inc. at December 31, 1995
and 1994, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of
the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the management of Post Properties, Inc.; our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We
conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which 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, assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management,
and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

1.   ORGANIZATION AND FORMATION OF THE COMPANY

ORGANIZATION AND FORMATION OF THE COMPANY

Post Properties, Inc. (the "Company") which was incorporated on January 25,
1984 is the successor by merger to the original Post Properties, Inc., a
Georgia Corporation which was formed in 1971. The Company was formed to
develop, lease and manage upscale multi-family apartment communities. On July
22, 1993, the Company completed the Initial Offering and a business combination
involving entities under varying common ownership ("Formation Transactions").
The entities included in the business combination are collectively referred to
as Post Properties Group ("PPG").  Proceeds from the Initial Offering were used
to acquire a controlling interest in the Post Apartment Homes, L.P. (the
"Operating Partnership") which was formed to succeed to substantially all of
the ownership interest in the Initial Communities and to the development,
leasing, landscaping and management business of the Company and certain other
affiliates.

On February 7, 1994, the Company completed the Second Offering. The net
proceeds from the Second Offering were used to repay or economically defease
certain mortgage and construction indebtedness on the Communities.

On October 20, 1995, the Company completed the Third Offering.  The net
proceeds from the Third Offering were used to repay certain mortgage
indebtedness and to repay borrowings under a line of credit.

The Company elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") for
Federal income tax purposes beginning with the taxable year ended December 31,
1993. A corporate REIT is a legal entity which holds real estate interest and,
through payments of dividends to shareholders, is permitted to reduce or avoid
the payment of Federal income taxes at the corporate level.

The Company currently owns and manages or is in the process of developing
apartment communities located in the Atlanta, Tampa, Northern Virginia,
Nashville and Charlotte metropolitan areas.  Approximately 75.0% and 10.3% (on
a unit basis) of the Company's properties are located in the Atlanta and Tampa
metropolitan areas, respectively.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

   
For the periods after the Initial Offering, the accompanying consolidated
financial statements include the consolidated accounts of the Company and the
Operating Partnership.  For the periods prior to the Initial Offering, the
accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the combined accounts of
PPG.  For 1993, the year of the business combination, predecessor and successor
operations are combined since there was a high degree of common ownership
before and after the transaction.

The business combination was structured to allow the partners and owners of the
entities in PPG the option of retaining their existing ownership interest,
receiving shares of the common stock of the Company, or receiving limited
partnership interests ("Units") in the Operating Partnership. The entities in
PPG were either limited partnerships or S corporations with a high degree of
common ownership. (Units can be exchanged, with certain restrictions, for cash 
or for shares of the Company on a one-for-one basis at the Company's option). 
Purchase accounting was applied to the acquisition of all non-controlled 
interests in which cash consideration was paid. The acquisition of all other 
interests was accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common 
control and, accordingly, was reflected at historical cost in a manner similar 
to that in pooling of interests accounting.
    

All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation. The consolidated financial statements of Post Properties, Inc.
have been adjusted for the effect of a minority interest in one property
partnership. The consolidated financial statements of the Company for the
periods ending after the Initial Offering have been adjusted for the minority
interest of unitholders in the Operating Partnership. Since units can be
redeemed for shares of the Company on a one-for-one basis at the Company's
option, minority interest of unitholders in the Operating Partnership is
calculated based on the weighted average of shares and units outstanding during
the period. For purposes of this calculation, shares of

common stock issued at the date of the Initial Offering in exchange for
interests in entities included in PPG are treated as if such shares of common
stock were outstanding at the beginning of the period. Shares of common stock
issued to the public in the Initial Offering, Second Offering and Third
Offering and upon subsequent conversions of units for shares are assumed
outstanding from the date of issuance.

Certain items in the Consolidated Financial Statements were reclassified for
comparative purposes.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In the first quarter of 1996, the Company intends to adopt SFAS No. 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets
to be Disposed of".  This statement requires that long-lived assets and certain
identified intangibles to be held and used by an entity be reviewed for
impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  The statement requires the
use of undiscounted estimated gross cash flows expected from the asset's
operations and eventual disposition.  If the sum of the expected future cash
flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is
recognized based on the fair value of the asset, less cost to sell.  The
current estimated undiscounted future operating cash flows and eventual
proceeds from disposition of each of the Company's real estate assets are
greater than the carrying value of each of these assets.  As a result,
management anticipates there should be no effect on the Company's consolidated
statement of operations or shareholder's equity upon adoption.

During 1996, the Company will adopt SFAS 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation".  This statement provides entities a choice between fair value
based or intrinsic value based, the Company's existing method, accounting for
stock based compensation such as stock options and employee stock purchase
plans.  Entities electing to remain with the existing method of accounting must
make pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share as if the fair
value method had been applied.  The Company intends to choose the existing
method of accounting for its stock-based compensation plans.  As a result, this
statement will not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated
statements of operations or shareholders' equity upon adoption.

REAL ESTATE ASSETS AND DEPRECIATION

Real estate assets are stated at the lower of depreciated cost or net
realizable value. Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred;
major replacements and betterments are capitalized and depreciated over their
estimated useful lives. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over
the useful lives of the properties (buildings and components and related land
improvements -- 20-40 years; furniture, fixtures and equipment -- 5 years).

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Rental -- Residential properties are leased under operating leases with terms
of generally one year or less. Rental income is recognized when earned, which
is not materially different from revenue recognition on a straight line basis.

Property management and landscaping services -- Income is recognized when
earned for property management and landscaping services provided to third
parties.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, all investments purchased with an
original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash
equivalents.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

RESTRICTED CASH

Restricted cash generally is comprised of resident security deposits for
communities located in Florida and required maintenance reserves for
communities located in DeKalb County, Georgia. At December 31, 1994, restricted
cash also included amounts received from the advance refunding of certain bond
indebtedness which was held in escrow to repay the original bonds on January 1,
1995. When these bonds were retired, a portion ($3,150) of the defeasance
escrow was released back to the Company.

ORGANIZATION COSTS AND AMORTIZATION

Certain entities included in PPG incurred legal fees and other costs associated
with their formation. These costs were capitalized and amortized over 60
months. However, in connection with the Formation Transactions all unamortized
portions of these costs were written off.

DEFERRED FINANCING COSTS

Deferred financing costs are amortized using the interest method over the terms
of the related debt.

INTEREST AND REAL ESTATE TAXES

Interest and real estate taxes incurred during the construction period are
capitalized and depreciated over the lives of the constructed assets. Interest
paid (net of capitalized amounts of $5,653, $3,427 and $666 during 1995, 1994
and 1993, respectively, and interest rate protection receipts of $1,539 and
$384 during 1995 and 1994) aggregated $28,343, $21,234 and $41,776 for the
years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

INTEREST RATE SWAP AGREEMENTS

Swap receipts and payments under interest rate swap agreements designated as a
hedge are recognized as adjustments to interest expense when earned and are
reflected as operating activities in the statement of cash flows. Settlement
payments or receipts on terminated interest rate swap agreements are deferred
and amortized over the remaining original period of the swap, as long as the
hedged borrowing is still outstanding. Settlement payments or receipts on
terminated interest rate swap agreements are reflected as financing activities
in the statement of cash flows.

INTEREST RATE PROTECTION AGREEMENTS

Premiums paid to purchase interest rate protection agreements are capitalized
and amortized over the terms of those agreements using the interest method.
Unamortized premiums are included in other assets in the consolidated balance
sheet. Amounts receivable under the interest rate protection agreements are
accrued as a reduction of interest expense.

PER SHARE DATA

Earnings per share with respect to the Company for the years ended December 31,
1995, 1994 and 1993 is computed based upon the weighted average number of
shares outstanding during the period.

PARTNERS' CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS, DISTRIBUTIONS AND PROFIT AND LOSS WITH RESPECT
TO ENTITIES INCLUDED IN PPG

Partners' capital contributions, distributions and profit and loss are
allocated in accordance with the terms of individual partnership agreements.
Generally, these items are allocated in proportion to respective ownership
interest.  Certain agreements also provide for preference return to limited
partners.

USE OF ESTIMATES IN FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The preparation of 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 and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

CONVENTIONAL MORTGAGES PAYABLE

Conventional mortgages payable were comprised of five loans at December 31,
1995 and twenty-one loans at December 31, 1994 each of which is collateralized
by an apartment community included in real estate assets. The mortgages payable
are generally due in monthly installments of interest only and mature at
various dates through 1998. Fixed rate mortgages payable aggregated $44,145 and
$57,761 at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively, ranged from approximately
6.0% to 8.8% (weighted average of 7.9% at December 31, 1995).  Variable rate
mortgages payable aggregated $14,400 and $122,608 at December 31, 1995 and
1994, respectively.  The interest rate was at .85% above the London Interbank
Offered Rate ("LIBOR") at December 31, 1995.  At December 31, 1995, LIBOR
ranged from 5.43% to 5.69% for one, three, six, and twelve month indices.

On March 15, 1996, fixed rate mortgages totaling $25,100 were repaid with
proceeds drawn on the Revolver.

BOND INDEBTEDNESS

Certain of the apartment communities are encumbered to secure tax-exempt
housing bonds.  Such bonds are generally payable in monthly or semi-annual
installments of interest only and mature at various dates through 2025.  Bond
indebtedness aggregating $105,379 and $109,229 at December 31, 1995 and 1994,
respectively, have fixed rates of interest ranging from 7.40% to 8.25%
(weighted average of 7.53% at December 31, 1995).  Floating rate indebtedness
reissued in 1995 in the aggregate amount of $39,795 at December 31, 1995, bears
interest at the "AAA" non-AMT tax exempt rate, set weekly, which was 5.05% at
December 31, 1995 (average of 3.87% for 1995).  The Company pays certain credit
enhancement fees with respect to such bonds, ranging from .575% to 1.075% of
the amount of such bonds or the amount of such letters of credit, as the case
may be.

On June 29, 1995, the Company replaced the bank letters of credit providing
credit enhancement for twelve of its outstanding tax-exempt bonds and three of
its economically defeased tax-exempt bonds.  Under an agreement with the
Federal National Mortgage Association ("FNMA"), FNMA now provides, directly or
indirectly through other bank letters of credit, credit enhancement for such
bonds.  Under the terms of such agreement, FNMA has provided replacement credit
enhancement

through 2025 for four bond issues, aggregating $39,795, which were concurrently
reissued, and has agreed, subject to certain conditions, to provide credit
enhancement through June 1, 2025 for up to an additional $114,733 ($9,354 of
which is currently defeased) with respect to eleven other bond issues which
mature and may be refunded in 1996 through 1998.  Under this agreement, on
January 1, 1996, the Post Mill bonds were refunded in the amount of $12,880
($3,864 of which had previously been defeased) with an issue enhanced by FNMA
and maturing on June 1, 2025.  The agreement also contains a provision whereby
the Company may request FNMA to evaluate the enhancement of an additional
$81,352 of bonds which are currently defeased and not part of the agreement.
The agreement with FNMA contains representations, covenants, and events of
default customary to such secured loans.

   
DEBT DEFEASED

The Company applied a portion of the net proceeds of the Initial Offering and
Second Offering to pay in full thirteen fixed rate obligations totaling
$132,470 and economically defease in full six tax exempt bond financings
totaling $52,700.  In addition, the Company paid $43,108 to partially prepay
eleven variable rate obligations and $51,956 to economically defease portions
of eight tax exempt bond financings.  The above amounts do not include
aggregate prepayment penalties and defeasance escrow requirements in excess of
principal defeased of $18,077.  The balance of debt fully or partially
economically defeased aggregated $90,706 at December 31, 1995.
    

LINES OF CREDIT

   

On February 1, 1995, the Company closed a 39-month unsecured revolving line 
of credit (the "Revolver") in the amount of $180,000 with a bank syndicate. 
The line initially bore interest at LIBOR plus 1.50% or prime minus
 .25%. On March 1, 1996 the Revolver was amended to reduce the interest rate of
LIBOR plus 0.95% or prime minus .25% and to extend the maturity to May 1, 
1999.  The amendment also provides for the rate to be adjusted up or down
based on changes in the Company's rating.  On June 4, 1996, the Company
received an upgrade on its senior unsecured corporate credit rating, which
further reduced  the interest rate on the Revolver to LIBOR plus 0.80%.  At
December 31, 1995, LIBOR ranged from 5.43% to 5.69% for one, three, six and
twelve months indices and the prime rate was at 8.50%.  The facility contains
customary representations,  covenants and events of default, including
covenants which restrict the ability of the Operating Partnership to make
distributions, in excess of stated  amounts, which in turn restricts the
discretion of the Company to declare  and pay dividends. In general, during any
fiscal year the Operating Partnership may only distribute up to 100% of the
Operating Partnership's consolidated income available for distribution (as
defined in the agreement) exclusive of distributions of capital gains for such
year. The agreement contains exceptions to these limitations to allow the
Operating Partnership to make any distributions to allow the Company to
maintain its status as a REIT. The Company does not anticipate that this
covenant will adversely effect the ability of the Operating Partnership to make
distributions, or the Company to declare dividends under its current policy. 
At December 31, 1995 the Company had $46,000 outstanding under the Revolver
with $134,000 available under the Revolver to fund future development an
general corporate obligations.

In addition, the Company has a $3,000 facility to provide letters of credit for
general business purposes.
    

SENIOR UNSECURED NOTES

On June 7, 1995, the Company privately placed $50,000 of unsecured senior notes
with The Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company.  The notes were in two
tranches: the first, totalling $30,000, carries an interest rate of 8.21% per
annum (1.25% over the corresponding treasury rate on the date such rate was
set) and matures on June 7, 2000; and the second, totalling $20,000 carries an
interest rate of 8.37% per annum (1.35% over the corresponding treasury rate on
the date such rate was set) and matures on June 7, 2002.  Proceeds from the
notes were used to reduce other secured indebtedness and to pay down the
Revolver.  The note agreements pursuant to which the notes were purchased
contain customary representations, covenants and events of default similar to
those contained in the note agreement for the Revolver.

On September 29, 1995, the Company privately placed $50,000 of unsecured senior
notes with Wachovia Bank of Georgia, N.A. (the "Wachovia Notes"). The Wachovia
Notes were in two tranches: the first tranche, aggregating  $25,000, will
mature on September 29, 1999; the second tranche, aggregating $25,000 will
mature on September 29, 2001.  Both tranches bear interest at 7.15% per annum
(1.10% over the corresponding treasury rate on the date such rate was set).
Proceeds from the issuance of the Wachovia Notes were used to reduce
indebtedness outstanding on the Revolver.  The credit agreement for the notes
contain representations, covenants and events of default similar to those
contained in the note agreement for the Revolver.

INTEREST RATE SWAP AGREEMENTS

During 1992, PPG entered into six interest rate swap agreements with a
financial institution to effectively change the interest cost on certain debt
from fixed to variable rates. The agreements, with a total notional principal
amount aggregating $99,425, were terminated during 1992. At termination, PPG
received payments aggregating $6,782, of which $331 was deferred at December
31, 1995.

INTEREST RATE PROTECTION AGREEMENTS

As discussed in Note 1, the Company used proceeds from the Initial Offering to
purchase certain interest rate protection agreements (aggregate premiums
amounted to $3,265) that will eliminate the Company's exposure to increases in
LIBOR over 3.50% per annum and increases in TENR(R) over 3.00% per annum on its
long-term debt. The agreements provide interest rate protection on variable
rate long-term indebtedness up to $98,295 with maturities from one to 36
months.

The Company is exposed to credit losses in the event of nonperformance by the
counterparties to its interest rate caps and nonderivative financial assets but
has no off-balance sheet credit risk of accounting loss. The Company
anticipates, however, the counterparties will be able to fully satisfy their
obligations under the contracts. The Company does not obtain collateral or
other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk but
monitors the credit standing of counterparties.

PLEDGED ASSETS

The aggregate net book value at December 31, 1995 of property pledged as
collateral for indebtedness amounted to approximately $267,697.

EXTRAORDINARY ITEM

The extraordinary item for the year ended December 31, 1995 resulted from the
write-off of deferred financing costs on the mortgage debt satisfied.  The
extraordinary item is net of minority interest ($250) of the unitholders
calculated on the basis of weighted average units and shares outstanding for
the year ended December 31, 1995.

The extraordinary item for the year ended December 31, 1994 resulted from
mortgage prepayment penalties and defeasance escrow requirements ($4,274), the
administrative costs for bond indebtedness defeased ($485), the write-off of
deferred financing costs on the mortgage debt satisfied ($1,139) and the
recognition of the gain previously deferred ($1,485) from the termination of
the interest rate swap agreements for which the related debt has been repaid or
defeased. The extraordinary

item is net of the minority interest ($1,120) of the unitholders calculated on
the basis of weighted average units and shares outstanding for the year ended
December 31, 1994.

The extraordinary item for the year ended December 31, 1993 resulted from
mortgage prepayment penalties and defeasance escrow requirements ($13,803), the
administrative costs for bond indebtedness defeased ($565), the write-off of
deferred financing costs on the mortgage debt satisfied ($1,763) and the
recognition of the gain previously deferred ($2,503) from the termination of
the interest rate swap agreements for which the related debt has been repaid or
defeased. The extraordinary item is net of the minority interest ($5,773) of
the unitholders calculated on the basis of weighted average units and shares
outstanding for the year ended December 31, 1993.

4.  INCOME TAXES

Prior to the Initial Offering, the entities included in the combined financial
statements were either limited partnerships or S Corporations and were not
subject to Federal and state income taxes.  Accordingly, no recognition has
been given to income taxes in the accompanying financial statements of  PPG
since the income or loss of the entities were included in the tax returns of
the individual owners.  The tax returns of the entities are subject to
examination by Federal and state taxing authorities.  If such examinations
result in adjustments to distributive shares of taxable income or loss, the tax
liability of the owners would be adjusted accordingly.

The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended (the "Code") commencing with the taxable year ended
December 31, 1993. In order for the Company to qualify as a REIT, it must
distribute annually at least 95% of its REIT taxable income, as defined in the
Code, to its shareholders and satisfy certain other requirements. As a result,
the Company generally will not be subject to Federal income taxation at the
corporate level on the income it distributes to the shareholders. Although Post
Properties, Inc. has elected to be taxed as a REIT, Post Services, Inc. ("Post
Services") was formed as a subsidiary of the Operating Partnership to provide
through its subsidiaries asset management, leasing and landscaping services to
third parties. The consolidated taxable income of these companies, if any, will
be subject to tax at regular corporate rates.

During 1994, Post Services sold three parcels of land. One of the parcels of
land was sold to the Operating Partnership resulting in an intercompany gain
which was eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. The other two
parcels were sold to a third party resulting in a pre-tax gain of $2,832. As a
result of these transactions, Post Services recorded and paid income tax
expense of $1,338 in the current period. Income tax expense for the period
ending December 31, 1994 was determined using current statutory federal and
state tax rates.

As of December 31, 1995 the net basis for Federal income tax purposes, taking
into account the special allocation of gain to the partners contributing
property to the Operating Partnership, exceeded the net assets as reported in
the Company's consolidated financial statements by approximately $167,718.

5.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company provides landscaping services for executive officers, employees,
directors and other related parties. For the years ended December 31, 1995,
1994 and 1993, the Company received landscaping fees of $1,758, $1,968 and $660
for such services. These amounts include reimbursements of direct expenses in
the amount of $1,111, $1,507 and $341, which are not included in landscape
services revenue; accordingly, these transactions resulted in the Company
recording landscape services net fees in excess of direct expenses of $647,
$461 and $319 in the accompanying financial statements for the years ended
December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

The Company provides accounting and administrative services to entities
controlled by certain executive officers of the

Company. Fees under this arrangement aggregated $32, $60 and $179 for the years
ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

During the year ended December 31, 1995 the Company completed a contract to
assist in the development of an apartment complex being constructed by a former
executive and current shareholder. Fees under this arrangement were $317 in
1995 and $140 in 1994.

On May 22, 1995, the Company purchased for a nominal amount the outstanding
capital stock of A.T. Aviation, Inc. ("A.T. Aviation"), an entity formed and
owned by John A. Williams, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company,
and John T. Glover, President and a Director of the Company.  In connection
with the acquisition, the Company assumed certain obligations of A.T. Aviation.
At the time of the acquisition, A.T. Aviation had entered into a purchase
agreement for a used aircraft, leased certain property improvements related
thereto, and obtained a line of credit in the amount of $7,500 to fund such
acquisitions.  In connection with the acquisition, the Company assumed and
repaid such line of credit, which had been guaranteed by such officers, and
such line and guarantees were terminated.

6.  EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

The employees of the Company are participants in a profit sharing plan pursuant
to Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code. Contributions are made based on a
discretionary amount determined by the Company's management. Contributions, if
any, are allocated to each participant based on the relative compensation of
the participant to the compensation of all participants. Contributions of $145,
$147 and $136 were made in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

During 1995, the Company adopted the Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP") to
encourage stock ownership by eligible directors and employees.  To participate
in the ESPP, (i) directors must not be employed by the Company or the Operating
Partnership and must have been a member of the Board of Directors for at least
one month and (ii) an employee must have been employed full-time by the Company
or the Operating Partnership for at least one month.  The purchase price of
shares of Common Stock under the ESPP is equal to 85% of the lesser of the
closing price per share of Common Stock on the first or last day of the trading
period, as defined.

   
7. DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN

The Dividend Reinvestment Plan ("DRIP") is available to all shareholders of
PPI.  Under the DRIP, shareholders may elect for their dividends to be used to
acquire additional shares of PPI's Common Stock directly from PPI, for 95% of
the market price on the date of purchase.

8.  STOCK OPTION PLAN
    

The Company has established an Employee Stock Plan (the "Plan") under which
1,200,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock are reserved for issuance.  Of
this amount, 550,000 shares are available for grants of restricted stock.  Any
key employee or officer is limited in that the amount of options they can
receive in a year cannot exceed 50,000 shares of Common Stock.  Option prices
are equal to market value of the Company's Common Stock at the date of grant
and have a term of ten years from the grant date.  Activity under the Company's
Stock Option Plan is summarized as follows:

CONTINGENCIES

The Company is party to various legal actions which are incidental to its
business. Management believes that these actions will not have a material
adverse affect on the consolidated balance sheets and statements of operations.

   
10.  FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
    

The following disclosures of estimated fair value were determined by management
using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies.
Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop
estimated fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not
necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize on disposition
of the financial instruments. The use of different market assumptions and/or
estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value
amounts.

Cash equivalents, rents and landscape service receivables, interest rate
protection agreement, accounts payable, accrued expenses, notes payable and
other liabilities are carried at amounts which reasonably approximate their
fair values.

Disclosure about fair value of financial instruments are based on pertinent
information available to management as of December 31, 1995. Although
management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the
reasonable fair value amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively
revalued for purposes of these financial statements since that date and current
estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented
herein.

11.  EARNINGS PER SHARE
    

Primary earnings (loss) per share for income before extraordinary item and net
income (loss) has been computed by dividing income before extraordinary item
and net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding.
This method derives the same per share information as the "two-class" method
prescribed for REIT's. The weighted average number of shares outstanding
utilized in the calculations are 18,382,299, 16,847,999 and 7,824,311 for the
years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

The non-recurring REIT formation expense of $2,783, less minority interest
portion of $1,179, recognized in the year ended December 31, 1993 had the
effect of reducing primary earnings per share by $.21 based on the weighted
average number of shares outstanding.

The non-recurring extraordinary items recognized in the years ended December
31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 had the effect of reducing primary earnings per share
by $.05, $.20 and $1.01, respectively, based on the weighted average number of
shares outstanding.

   
12.  SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION
    

Non-cash investing and financing activities for the years ended December 31,
1995, 1994 and 1993 are as follows:

(a) As discussed in Note 1, purchase accounting was applied during 1993 to the
    acquisition of certain noncontrolled interests resulting in an increase of
    $53,773 in the historical cost basis of the related real estate assets.

(b) On the date of the Initial Offering, Second Offering and Third Offering,
    holders of 5,928,216, 5,401,185 and 5,139,243 Units of the Operating
    Partnership, respectively, were allocated capital on a pro rata basis in
    proportion to their Units over total Units outstanding in the Operating
    Partnership. During 1995, 1994 and 1993, holders of 97,201, 159,373 and
    532,399 Units in the Operating Partnership, respectively, exercised their
    option to convert their units to shares of the Company on a one-for-one
    basis. The net effect of the capital allocated to the unitholders of the
    Operating Partnership on the dates of those offerings and the subsequent
    conversion to shares of the Company by unitholders resulted in a net
    reclassification of shareholders' equity to minority interest in the amount
    of $10,598, $8,345 and $76,486, respectively.

(c) The Operating Partnership committed to distribute $13,091, $10,094 and
    $8,744 for the quarters ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993,
    respectively. As a result, the Company declared dividends of $10,573,
    $7,737 and $6,313 for the quarters ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993,
    respectively. The remaining distributions from the Operating Partnership in
    the amount of $2,518, $2,357 and $2,431 are distributed to minority
    interest unitholders in the Operating Partnership.

(d) In conjunction with the Initial Offering and Formation Transactions as
    discussed in Note 1, advances due to shareholders and partners in the
    amount of $3,426 were exchanged for Units or shares.
