                       NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (unaudited)
                                March 31, 2002

     1. The balance sheet at March 31, 2002,  statements  of operations  for the
three and nine months ended March 31, 2002 and March 31, 2001 and  statements of
cash flows for the nine month  periods  ended  March 31, 2002 and 2001 have been
prepared  by the  Company  without  audit.  In the  opinion of  management,  all
adjustments,  including normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly
the financial  position,  results of operations and cash flows,  have been made.
Certain  information  and footnote  disclosures  normally  included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting  principles
have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these financial  statements
be read in conjunction with the Company's audited  financial  statements at June
30, 2001.  The results of operations  for the three months and nine months ended
March 31, 2002 are not necessarily  indicative of operating results for the full
year.

     2. The  computation  of earnings  (loss) per common share has been based on
the weighted  average  number of shares of  outstanding  common stock and common
stock issuable without further consideration,  which for the three month periods
ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 were  800,892 and 800,994,  respectively,  and for
the nine month  periods  ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 were 800,925 and 801,165,
respectively.

     3.  Financial  information  for the two industry  segments,  land sales and
rental operations, are as follows:


                                                       General

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

     WHEN USED IN THIS FROM 10-QSB, THE WORDS "BELIEVES" "ANTICIPATES" "EXPECTS"
AND SIMILAR  EXPRESSIONS  ARE INTENDED TO IDENTIFY  FORWARD-LOOKING  STATEMENTS.
SUCH STATEMENTS ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES MORE PARTICULARLY
DESCRIBED IN ITEM 1 OF THIS REPORT.  THESE RISKS AND  UNCERTAINTIES  COULD CAUSE
ACTUAL  RESULTS TO DIFFER  MATERIALLY.  READERS ARE CAUTIONED NOT TO PLACE UNDUE
RELIANCE ON THESE  FORWARD-LOOKING  STATEMENTS,  WHICH SPEAK ONLY AS OF THE DATE
HEREOF.  WE  UNDERTAKE  NO  OBLIGATION  TO  PUBLICLY  RELEASE THE RESULTS OF ANY
REVISIONS TO  FORWARD-LOOKING  STATEMENTS WHICH WE MAY MAKE TO REFLECT EVENTS OR
CIRCUMSTANCES AFTER THE DATE OF THIS FORM 10-QSB OR TO REFLECT THE OCCURRENCE OF
UNANTICIPATED EVENTS.

     Management's Discussion and Analysis should be read in conjunction with our
Financial Statements and the notes to our Financial Statements.

     During the nine months ended March 31, 2002,  the  Company's  cash and cash
equivalents  increased by  $950,337.  During this  period,  operations  provided
$2,428,044 and investing activities provided $746,663, primarily from short-term
and joint venture investments. Also, the Company repaid debt of $2,224,370, net.
Except for  short-term  borrowing,  the Company's  primary source of cash is the
sale of land. Although rental operations generated approximately $900,000 in the
first three  quarters,  most of those receipts were used to service the mortgage
debt for those properties. Other than trade payables, the other significant debt
is $260,966 on lines of credit used for operations.  This amount fluctuates, and
is paid from receipts  from lot sales.  The Company will continue to improve its
land projects to create saleable products, and management believes that receipts
from those sales will sustain the Company for the balance of the year.

     During the third  quarter of the  current  fiscal  year,  the  Company  had
revenues of $2,035,344  compared to $317,340 during the same period in the prior
fiscal year. Land revenues  increased  significantly  primarily due to a greater
amount of improved lot sales, $3,845,000 compared to $435,000 and an increase in
large parcel sales of  $2,771,000.  Operating  expenses  during the three months
ended March 31, 2002, were $1,245,514 compared to $494,020 during the comparable
period in 2001. The increase was due principally to higher cost of land revenues
of $783,999.  As the Company sells the remaining  lots in its Tierra Oeste units
this year, it has begun sales of lots in the Painted Sky divisions, which should
continue into the next fiscal year.

     For  the  year to  date,  revenues  in 2002  were  $7,903,717  compared  to
$1,302,834 in 2001 for reasons  stated above.  Operating  costs were  $4,084,598
compared to $2,061,661  as cost of sales  increased by  $2,039,475.  The cost of
rental  revenues and general and  administrative  expenses  remained  relatively
constant  from 2001 to 2002.  Most of the  improvement  in  revenue  and  income
occurred in the second quarter, due to accelerated subdivision lot sales and one
single sales  transaction of $2,225,000.  Management  expects increased sales of
land to continue.

     For the past nine years,  the  National  Park  Service has been buying land
from Westland for its  Petroglyph  National Park pursuant to  condemnation.  The
Company is allowed to defer  federal and state income tax on the gain from these
sales if it reinvests the proceeds  within a specified time. The result has been
a deferred tax liability of  approximately  $6,100,000 for these deferred gains.
Of the approximately  $15,600,000 spent, the Company has remaining approximately
$4,585,000 of replacemant lands and property to acquire by June 30, 2005. In the
event the Company  does not  replace  the  property  sold to the  National  Park
Service, it will need to utilize a substantial portion of its liquid investments
for the payment of these taxes.
