FOR  IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Friday, June 20, 2003

                      CALPROP REPORTS FIRST QUARTER RESULTS

             Company Reports Net Profit of $413,344 in First Quarter
             -------------------------------------------------------

Marina Del Rey, CA, June 20, 2003 -- Calprop Corporation (OTCBB:CLPO), a
California and Colorado home builder, in reporting financial results for the
three month period ended March 31, 2003, today reported net profit from
operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2003.

     "For the three month period ended March 31, 2003, Calprop incurred a net
profit of $413,344. Our backlog decreased to $5,375,000 on 16 units, down 88.2%
from $45,470,000 on 119 units a year ago. Presently, Calprop is developing three
projects as compared to nine projects at this time a year ago. The Company is
currently in escrow to purchase five new properties, approximately 600 lots in
both Northern and Southern California. Three of these projects are anticipated
to commence production within the next six months, if not sooner. We plan on
closing units in mid-2004 from some of these projects," said Victor Zaccaglin,
Calprop's chairman and chief executive officer.

     For the first quarter, Calprop's revenues were $4.6 million, a decrease of
$16,719,991 or 78.5% from $21.3 million of revenues in the first quarter a year
ago. Loss from development operations was $530,679 for the first quarter
compared to income of $94,774 in the same quarter a year ago. Net profit for the
first quarter of 2003 was $413,344 or $0.04 per share on 10,257,333 weighted
average shares and common stock equivalents, compared with net loss of $267,446
or ($0.03) per share on 10,254,005 weighted average shares and common stock
equivalents, in the same quarter a year ago. "The increase in results was due
primarily to a sale of Calprop's interest in a limited liability company that
owns Andalucia Luxury Townhomes. Though our revenue has diminished, we responded
by generating rental property income and reducing our general and administrative
costs," explained Victor Zaccaglin.

     Calprop Corporation, based in Marina Del Rey, California, builds quality
homes in some of the most desirable communities in both Northern and Southern
California and Colorado. The Company's common stock is traded on the OTCBB under
the symbol CLPO.
