INTRODUCTION

This Annual Report  contains  forward-looking  statements  within the meaning of
Section 27A of the  Securities  Act of 1993, as amended,  and Section 21E of the
Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  Such  forward-looking  statements
include,  without limitation,  statements concerning anticipated improvements in
financial  operations  from  completed  and planned  property  renovations,  and
benefits from the Company's  acquisition of Apple Residential Income Trust, Inc.
Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors
which may cause the actual results, performance or achievement of the Company to
be materially  different  from the results of  operations or plans  expressed or
implied by such forward-looking  statements.  Such factors include,  among other
things, unanticipated adverse business developments affecting the Company or the
properties,  as the case may be, adverse  changes in the real estate markets and
general  and local  economies  and  business  conditions.  Although  the Company
believes  that  the  assumptions   underlying  the  forward-looking   statements
contained herein are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate, and
therefore there can be no assurance that such statements included in this annual
report  will prove to be  accurate.  In light of the  significant  uncertainties
inherent in the  forward-looking  statements  included herein,  the inclusion of
such information  should not be regarded as a  representation  by the Company or
any other person that the results or conditions  described in such statements or
the  objectives  and plans of the Company  will be achieved.  In  addition,  the
Company's  continued  qualification  as a real estate  investment trust ("REIT")
involves the  application  of highly  technical  and complex  provisions  of the
Internal Revenue Code.  Readers should carefully review the Company's  financial
statements and the notes thereto,  as well as the risk factors  described in the
Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

ITEM 1.  Business

Cornerstone  Realty Income Trust,  Inc.  (together  with its  subsidiaries,  the
"Company")  is a  Virginia  corporation  and was  incorporated  in August  1989.
Initial  capitalization  occurred  on  August  18,  1992.  Operations  of rental
property  commenced  on June 1, 1993.  The business of the Company is to acquire
and operate existing  residential  apartment  complexes  located in the southern
United  States.  As of  December  31,  1999,  the  Company  owned  87  apartment
communities,  which comprised a total of 20,965  apartment  units. The Company's
apartment


                                       2



communities are located in Georgia,  North Carolina,  South Carolina,  Texas and
Virginia.  The Company's  property  acquisitions are described in Item 2 of this
report,  which is hereby incorporated herein by reference.  The Company directly
owns all of its properties in Georgia and Virginia. In other states, the Company
owns its properties through its wholly-owned or majority-owned subsidiaries.

The Company is a self-administered and self-managed equity REIT headquartered in
Richmond,  Virginia.  The Company is a fully integrated real estate organization
with  expertise  in the  management,  acquisition  and  renovation  of apartment
communities.  The Company  maintains an intense  focus on the  operations of its
properties to generate  consistent,  sustained  growth in net  operating  income
("NOI"),  which it  believes  is the key to growing  funds from  operations  per
common  share.  The Company  believes  that  successful  implementation  of this
strategy  will  allow it to  continue  to  increase  its NOI from its  apartment
portfolio.  Through renovation and enhanced property management of the apartment
communities, the Company strives to increase cash flows, thereby adding value to
the underlying real estate.

The Company's objective is to increase  distributable cash flow and common share
value by:

o    Increasing  rental rates,  maintaining  high economic  occupancy rates, and
     controlling costs at the properties; and

o    Acquiring  additional  properties  at  attractive  prices that  provide the
     opportunity to improve operating performance through the application of the
     Company's management, marketing, and renovation programs.

The Company has nine regional property management offices,  which are located in
the following cities: Atlanta, Georgia; Raleigh, Charlotte and Wilmington, North
Carolina; Columbia, South Carolina; Dallas and Fort Worth, Texas; and Blacksburg
and  Virginia  Beach,  Virginia.  As of  December  31,  1999,  the  Company  had
approximately 625 employees,  including specialists in acquisition,  management,
marketing,  leasing,  development,   accounting  and  information  systems.  The
Company's   executive  officers  have  substantial   experience  with  apartment
properties,  having  been  responsible  for  the  management,   acquisition  and
renovation of more than 25,000  apartment units over the last 25 years using the
strategies and techniques  described  below.  The Company's top three  executive
officers  have an average  of  approximately  20 years  each in the  management,
acquisition and renovation of residential apartment communities.

Growth through Management and Leasing

The Company  seeks to increase net  operating  income  through  active  property
management,  which  includes  keeping  rental rates at or above  market  levels,
maintaining  high  economic  occupancy  through  tenant  retention,  creating  a
property  identity,   effectively  marketing  each  property,   and  controlling
operating expenses at the property level.

Management develops the overall management and leasing strategy, including goals
and  budgets,  for  each  property.  To  achieve  each  property's   objectives,
management delegates significant decision-making  responsibility to regional and
on-site  employees,  thereby instilling in

                                       3

its employees a sense of ownership of their property.  Management  believes that
this  strategy is an effective  way to maximize each  property's  potential.  To
achieve  desired  results,  the  Company  emphasizes  training  for its  on-site
employees as well as raising  rents to be at or above the market for  comparable
properties.  The  Company  also  ties  on-site  employees'  bonuses  to both net
operating  income targets  established for their  respective  properties and the
Company's overall financial performance.

Management  believes  that  tenant  retention  is  critical  to  generating  net
operating  income  growth.  Tenant  retention  maintains or  increases  economic
occupancy and minimizes the costs  associated with preparing  apartments for new
occupants.  The Company  employs one person at each  property  who has a primary
focus on tenant  retention.  The tenant retention  specialist's  objective is to
make tenants feel at home in the community  through  personal  attention,  which
includes  organizing  social  functions  and  activities  as well as  responding
promptly to any tenant problems that may arise in conjunction with the apartment
or community.  The Company's philosophy is to market its properties  continually
to  existing  tenants  in order to  achieve a low  turnover  rate.  The  Company
believes that the turnover rate of its properties is below the average  turnover
rate for comparable apartment communities.

The Company seeks to create a unique  identity for each property by  emphasizing
curb appeal, signage, and attractive common area facilities,  such as clubhouses
and  swimming  pools.  The  Company  has  upgraded  or  renovated  many  of  the
properties' common area facilities after acquisition.  Each property is marketed
as a "Cornerstone  Community" but typically has an individual property name tied
to a local theme.  Each property has a dedicated  on-site marketing person whose
responsibility is to position and market the property within the local community
through such activities as media  advertising,  on-site  promotional  events and
personal calls to local businesses.

Operating  expenses are  controlled at each  property by setting  budgets at the
corporate  level and  requiring  that any  expense  over budget at a property be
approved by  management.  Purchase  discounts  are sought at both the  corporate
level and locally in those areas where the Company has a  significant  presence.
All contracts for goods and services are re-bid  annually to ensure  competitive
pricing.  The Company has a  preventive  maintenance  program and the ability to
perform  work  using  in-house  personnel,  which  helps the  Company  to reduce
expenses  at the  properties.  For  example,  the  maintenance  manager  at each
property is qualified to perform HVAC and plumbing work which otherwise would be
contracted outside the Company. In addition, the Company passes through expenses
to tenants by  sub-metering  of water and sewer to tenants where local and state
regulations allow.

Growth through Acquisitions, Renovations and Expansion

The  Company  seeks  to  generate   growth  in  net  operating   income  through
acquisitions by: (i) acquiring  under-performing assets at less than replacement
cost; (ii) correcting  operational problems;  (iii) making selected renovations;
(iv) increasing economic occupancy;  (v) raising rental rates; (vi) implementing
cost controls; and (vii) providing enhanced property and centralized management.
In markets that it targets for acquisition  opportunities,  the Company attempts
to gain a significant local presence in order to achieve operating efficiencies.
In analyzing acquisition  opportunities,  the Company considers  acquisitions of
property portfolios as well as individual properties.


                                        4





The  Company  has  demonstrated  an ability to grow  through  acquisitions.  The
Company's first two properties were acquired in June of 1993. As of December 31,
1999, the Company owned and operated 87 apartment communities.

The  Company   analyzes   specific   criteria  in  connection  with  a  proposed
acquisition.  These  criteria  include:  (i) the market in which a  property  is
located and whether it has a diversified  economy,  stable  employment  base and
increasing  average household income;  (ii) the property's current and projected
cash flow and the ability to increase net operating income;  (iii) the condition
and  design  of  the   property  and  whether  the  property  can  benefit  from
renovations;  (iv)  historical  and projected  occupancy  rates;  (v) geographic
location  in light of the  Company's  diversification  objectives;  and (vi) the
purchase price of the property as it relates to the cost of new construction.

The Company believes it has been and will be able to purchase properties at less
than replacement cost based on deferred maintenance,  management neglect, or the
prior owner's financial distress. Upon acquisition, the Company seeks to improve
both  operating  results and  property  identity  through a 24-month  renovation
policy which  includes  selective  renovations  such as new roofs,  new exterior
siding, exterior painting,  clubhouse renovation and construction,  and interior
refurbishment.  The Company has invested in renovations to its properties in the
approximate  amounts of $30 million in 1999, $26 million in 1998, $23 million in
1997, and $19.0 million in 1996.

The  Company  has  also  made,  and  may in the  future  make,  acquisitions  of
established apartment communities involved in foreclosure  proceedings.  In this
situation,  the Company seeks  properties  that have below  market-rate  leases,
correctable  vacancy problems or inefficient  property  management.  The Company
also  may  make  acquisitions  of  properties  from  over-leveraged   owners  of
properties,  governmental regulatory authorities, lending institutions that have
taken  control  of  such  properties,  mortgagees-in-possession  and,  possibly,
through bankruptcy reorganization proceedings.

If sufficient  tenant demand exists and suitable land is available,  the Company
may construct additional apartment units on land adjacent to certain properties.
The Company believes that its successful  experience with  large-scale  property
renovation will also permit strategic and cost-effective  property expansion. It
is the  Company's  policy  to  acquire  such  additional  apartment  units  on a
"turn-key"  basis from a third party  contractor,  thereby  minimizing the risks
normally associated with development and lease-up.

As of December  31,  1999,  the Company had planned  expansion  projects for two
existing  properties:  Glen  Eagles and The  Meadows.  Glen Eagles is a 166-unit
apartment community located in Winston-Salem,  North Carolina. The land adjacent
to the community will accommodate  approximately 220 additional  apartment units
which can be served by existing amenities.  At The Meadows, a 176-unit community
in Asheville,  North Carolina,  there is additional land for  approximately  250
additional  apartment  units.  The Company  acquired these adjacent  parcels and
transferred  them to a developer for construction and lease-up of the


                                       5



additional  apartment  units.  These parcels and the  additional  apartments are
subject  to  repurchase  by the  Company,  which is  contingent  on a number  of
factors,  including the achievement of certain  occupancy  levels and compliance
with  various  time  commitments.  The  construction  at the  Meadows  has  been
completed,  and the Company  repurchased  the  property on March 16,  2000.  The
Company does not have interests in any land adjacent to any other  properties it
now owns,  but may acquire land or options to acquire land of this type adjacent
to other properties it may acquire in the future.

Acquisition of Apple Residential Income Trust, Inc.

On July 23, 1999, the Company  acquired  Apple  Residential  Income Trust,  Inc.
("Apple"). As a result, the Company acquired 29 apartment communities containing
7,503 apartment  homes. The acquisition  qualified as a tax-free  reorganization
and was accounted for under the purchase  method of accounting.  The acquisition
was  structured  as a merger of Apple into a  majority-owned  subsidiary  of the
Company. The aggregate purchase price was approximately $311 million.  Under the
terms of the  merger  agreement,  each  Apple  shareholder  received  0.4 of the
Company's Series A Convertible  Preferred Shares for each common share of Apple.
A total of  12,666,019 of the Company's  Series A Convertible  Preferred  Shares
were issued as a result of the merger. The Series A Convertible Preferred Shares
have a first year dividend  rate of $2.125,  which will increase to $2.25 in the
second  year  and  $2.375  in the  third  year  and  thereafter.  Each  Series A
Convertible  Preferred  Share  reflects a conversion  price of $15.80 per common
share of the  Company.  After five  years,  the Series A  Convertible  Preferred
Shares will be  redeemable at $25 per share plus any accrued  dividends,  at the
option  of the  Company,  in whole or in part,  for cash or  stock,  subject  to
certain conditions.  In addition,  the company assumed approximately $32 million
of Apple's debt with an effective  interest  rate of  approximately  6.475%.  No
goodwill was recorded as a result of this transaction.

Financing Policy

The  Company's  objective  is to seek  capital as needed at the lowest  possible
cost. In addition to obtaining  capital from future sales of common shares,  the
Company may obtain  capital  from lines of credit or other  secured or unsecured
borrowings.

On September 29, 1999,  the Company  received a loan in the principal  amount of
$73.5  million from The  Prudential  Insurance  Company of America.  The loan is
secured by ten properties.  The loan is interest only,  paid monthly,  and bears
interest  at a fixed  interest  rate of 7.29% per annum with a maturity  date of
September,  2006.  The  proceeds  were used to pay down  short-term  debt and to
curtail the Company's existing line of credit as described below.

In connection with the Apple merger, the Company assumed six mortgage notes with
a principal  amount of $30.8  million.  These  mortgages were recorded at a fair
value of $32 million at the date of assumption.  The difference between the fair
value and the principal is being amortized as an adjustment to interest  expense
over the term of the  respective  notes.  Prepayment  penalties  apply for early
retirements. Scheduled maturities are at various dates through December 2005. At
December  31, 1999 the balance of the  mortgage  note  payable was  $31,545,682.
Mortgage notes payable are due in monthly installments,  including principal and
interest.


                                       6



During 1999, the Company's  $175 million  Unsecured Line of Credit was increased
to $185 million and the maturity date was extended to July 9, 2002.  The lenders
are a syndicate of banks with First Union National Bank as agent.  The Unsecured
Line of Credit currently bears interest equal to one-month LIBOR plus 1.20%. The
interest  rate is adjusted  monthly and the  formula  for  determination  of the
interest rate can change based on changes in financial  condition and debt level
of the  Company.  At December  31,  1999,  the  Company had an unused  borrowing
capacity of $35 million under the  Unsecured  Line of Credit.  In addition,  the
Company is obligated to pay lenders a quarterly commitment fee equal to .20% per
annum of the unused portion of the line. At December 31, 1999,  borrowings under
the agreement was $150 million.

During 1999, the Company  increased its $5 million  unsecured line of credit for
general corporate  purposes to $7.5 million.  This line of credit bears interest
at LIBOR plus 1.20%,  adjusted  monthly,  and the maturity  date was extended to
October 31, 2000. On December 31, 1999, the outstanding balance on this loan was
$7.5 million.

The Company intends to maintain a debt policy limit in which the Company's total
combined   indebtedness   plus  its  pro  rata  share  of  indebtedness  of  any
unconsolidated  investments  ("Joint  Venture  Debt") is  limited  to 40% of the
Company's  total equity  market  capitalization  plus its combined  indebtedness
(including its pro rata share of Joint Venture Debt).

Environmental Matters

In  connection  with each of its property  acquisitions,  the Company  obtains a
Phase I  Environment  Report,  and such  additional  environmental  reports  and
surveys as are necessitated by such preliminary  report.  Based on such reports,
the Company is not aware of any environmental  situations requiring  remediation
at its properties  which have not been or are not currently being  remediated as
necessary.

Recent Developments

Effective as of March 10, 2000, the Company sold 16 apartment  communities for a
gross selling price of $136.5  million.  These  apartment  communities had a net
book value,  after  depreciation,  of approximately $105 million at December 31,
1999.

ITEM 2.  Properties

Property Descriptions and Characteristics

As of December  31, 1999,  the Company  owned 87  apartment  communities,  which
comprised a total of 20,965  apartment units.  Those apartment  communities were
located in Georgia (7  communities),  North  Carolina  (31  communities),  South
Carolina (8 communities), Texas (29 communities), and Virginia (12 communities).

Distributions  of  $42,050,415  and  $38,317,602  were made to the  shareholders
during 1999 and 1998, respectively.

The  timing  and  amounts  of  distributions  to  shareholders  are  within  the
discretion of the Company's board of directors. Future distributions will depend
on the Company's  results of  operations,  cash flow from  operations,  economic
conditions and other factors, such as working capital, cash requirements to fund
investing and financing activities, capital expenditure requirements,  including
improvements  to and expansions of properties and the  acquisition of additional
properties,  as well as the distribution  requirements  under federal income tax
provisions  for  qualification  as a REIT.  The Company's  distributions  to its
shareholders  also may be limited by the  agreement  pertaining to the Company's
Unsecured Line of Credit.

For federal income tax purposes,  distributions paid to common  shareholders may
consist of ordinary income,  capital gains distributions,  non-taxable return of
capital, or a combination thereof.  Distributions  constitute ordinary income to
the extent of the  Company's  current  and  accumulated  earnings  and  profits.
Distributions  which exceed the Company's  current and accumulated  earnings and
profits constitute a return of capital rather than a dividend to the extent of a
shareholder's  basis in his common shares and reduce the shareholder's  basis in
the common


                                       13



shares. To the extent that a distribution exceeds both the Company's current and
accumulated  earnings  and  profits  and the  shareholder's  basis in his common
shares,  it is  generally  treated  as gain  from the sale or  exchange  of that
shareholder's  common shares. The Company notifies  shareholders  annually as to
the  taxability  of  distributions  paid  during the  preceding  year.  In 1999,
approximately  11% of  distributions  represented  a return of capital,  and the
balance represented ordinary income.

The Company has a Dividend  Reinvestment and Share Purchase Plan under which any
record  holder of common  shares  may  reinvest  cash  dividends  and may invest
additional cash payments of up to $15,000 per quarter in common shares.

On July 23,  1999,  in  connection  with the Apple  merger,  the Company  issued
12,666,019 Series A Convertible  Preferred Shares,  each of which is convertible
into 1.5823 of the Company's  common  shares,  reflecting a conversion  price of
$15.80 per common  share of the  Company.  The  Series A  Convertible  Preferred
Shares are non-voting and have a liquidation  preference of $25 per share of the
Company's common shares.  After five years,  the Series A Convertible  Preferred
Shares are redeemable at $25 per share plus any accrued dividends, at the option
of the  Company,  in whole or in part,  for cash or stock,  subject  to  certain
conditions.  The Company is imputing  dividends  calculated as the present value
difference  between the perpetual  preferred stock  distribution  and the stated
distribution  rate.  The imputed  dividend is reflected as additional  preferred
stock distributions. The Series A Convertible Preferred Shares are not listed on
any exchange.

On  March  15,  2000,  the  Company's  common  shares  were  held by 128  record
shareholders.
