EXHIBIT 31.2
                                  Certification

I, James R. Moore, certify that:

I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended July
31, 2005 of Urstadt Biddle Properties Inc;

Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements
made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not
misleading with respect to the period covered by this report;

Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial information
included in this report, fairly present in all material respects the financial
condition, results of operations and cash flows of the registrant as of, and
for, the periods presented in this report;

The registrant's other certifying officers and I are responsible for
establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in
Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the registrant and have:

a)                             Designed such disclosure controls and procedures,
                               or caused such disclosure controls and procedures
                               to be designed under our supervision, to ensure
                               that material information relating to the
                               registrant, including its consolidated
                               subsidiaries, is made known to us by others
                               within those entities, particularly during the
                               period in which this report is being prepared;

b)                             Evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant's
                               disclosure controls and procedures and presented
                               in this report our conclusions about the
                               effectiveness of the disclosure controls and
                               procedures as of the end of the period covered by
                               this report based on our evaluation; and

                           c)  Disclosed in this report any change in the
                               registrant's internal control over financial
                               reporting that occurred during the registrant's
                               most recent fiscal quarter (the registrant's
                               fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an annual
                               report) that has materially affected, or is
                               reasonably likely to materially affect, the
                               registrant's internal control over financial
                               reporting; and

The registrant's other certifying officers and I have disclosed, based on our
most recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting, to the
registrant's auditors and the audit committee of the registrant's board of
directors (or persons performing the equivalent functions):



a)                             All significant deficiencies and material
                               weaknesses in the design or operation of internal
                               control over financial reporting which are
                               reasonably likely to adversely affect the
                               registrant's ability to record, process,
                               summarize and report financial information;

b)                             Any fraud, whether or not material, that involves
                               management or other employees who have a
                               significant role in the registrant's internal
                               control over financial reporting.
