1. REVIEW OF OPERATIONS                                                         
The acquisitions of properties in the period under review makes prior periods   
non-comparable. The highlights for the period under review are:                 
- Doubled the size of the portfolio by acquisition of 51 properties with a value
of R 731 345 000.                                                               
- Maintained sustainable growth and distributed a total of 37 cents.            
- Improved portfolio occupancy rate to 96%.                                     
- Eliminated effect of deferred linked units.                                   
Other income consists primarily of profit realised when the company purchased   
the right to receive 6 300 000 linked units at R4,30. These linked units were to
be issued on 15 March 2004 at R5,00 each as part payment for properties acquired
at listing.                                                                     
In line with its strategy, the company has concluded agreements for the purchase
of property to the value of R75 740 000 from various vendors.
