Item 5. Other Events

     We are  filing  with  this  Current  Report  on Form  8-K,  the  historical
statements  of Revenues and Certain  Operating  Expenses for Sheridan  Plaza and
Presidential  Markets  for the year ended  December  31, 2002 and the six months
ended June 30, 2003 and pro forma  financial  information  for Equity One,  Inc.
(the "Company") for these periods.

     The  Company  has  acquired  the  following   properties   (the   "Acquired
Properties"):

HEB  - Spring Shadows

     On  April  3,  2003,  the  Company  acquired  HEB  -  Spring  Shadows,   an
approximately 63,000 square foot shopping center located in Houston,  Texas from
an unrelated third party entity in an arms length transaction.  The property was
acquired for cash of  approximately  $3.5 million.  The Company  funded the cash
from funds on hand.

Sheridan Plaza

     On July 14, 2003, the Company  acquired  Sheridan Plaza,  an  approximately
452,000  square foot  shopping  center  located in  Hollywood,  Florida  from an
unrelated  third party  entity in an arms length  transaction.  The property was
acquired for cash of  approximately  $75.3 million.  The Company funded the cash
from funds on hand and borrowing under our existing revolving credit facility.

Butler Creek

     On July 15, 2003,  the Company  acquired  Butler  Creek,  an  approximately
96,000 square foot retail property  located in Acworth,  Georgia in Cobb County,
approximately  25 miles  northwest  of Atlanta,  from an  unrelated  third party
entity in an arms length  transaction.  The  property  was  acquired for cash of
approximately $12.1 million.  The Company funded the cash from funds on hand and
borrowing under our revolving credit facility.

Bandera Outparcel

     On July 28, 2003, the Company acquired Bandera Outparcel,  an approximately
6,000  square foot  shopping  center  located in San  Antonio,  Texas,  which is
adjacent to our existing Bandera Festival retail center, from an unrelated third
party entity in an arms length  transaction.  The property was acquired for cash
of approximately $500,000. The Company funded the cash from funds on hand.

Presidential Markets

     On  August  15,  2003,  the  Company  acquired   Presidential  Markets,  an
approximately  396,000  square  foot  shopping  center  located  in  Snellville,
Georgia,  approximately 20 miles east of Atlanta,  from an unrelated third party
entity  in  an  arms  length   transaction.   The   property  was  acquired  for
approximately  $47.2  million,  consisting  of  $19.7  million  in cash  and the
assumption  of a $27.5 million fixed rate  mortgage.  The cash  component of the
purchase  was  funded  from  funds on hand and  borrowings  under  our  existing
revolving credit facility. The interest rate on the fixed rate mortgage is 7.65%
per annum.

     In  evaluating a potential  acquisition  and  determining  the  appropriate
amount of  consideration  to be paid for a property,  we considered a variety of
factors   including   overall   valuation  of  net  rental   income,   location,
demographics, tenant mix, quality of tenants, length of leases, price per square
foot,  occupancy

                                       2


and the overall rental rates at the shopping  center to market rates. We believe
that these properties are well located, have acceptable roadway access,  attract
high-quality tenants, and are well maintained. The properties will be subject to
competition  from similar  shopping  centers  within their market area,  and the
economic  performance could be affected by changes in local economic conditions.
Separate  independent  appraisals  were  not  obtained  in  connection  with the
acquisitions.  The Company, after investigation of the properties,  is not aware
of any material factors, other than those enumerated above, that would cause the
financial  information  reported,   where  available,   to  not  be  necessarily
indicative of future operating results.
