Report of Independent Auditors


To Shareholders of

Blue Ridge Real Estate Company

and Big Boulder Corporation


We have audited the accompanying statement of revenues and certain expenses (“Financial statement”) of the Oxbridge Square Shopping Center ("Oxbridge"), located in Richmond, Virginia for the year ended December 31, 2003. This financial statement is the responsibility of Oxbridge's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statement based on our audit.


We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statement is free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statement. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.


The accompanying Financial statement was prepared for the purpose of complying with rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission for inclusion in Form 8-K/A of Blue Ridge Real Estate Company/Big Boulder Corporation and is not intended to be a complete presentation of Oxbridge's revenues and expenses.


In our opinion, the financial statement referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the revenues and certain expenses as described in Note 1 of Oxbridge for the year ended December 31, 2003, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Oxbridge Square Limited Partnership
Notes to Statement of Revenues and Certain Expenses
For the year ended December 31, 2003

1.     Basis of Presentation

Presented herein is the statement of revenues and certain expenses related to the operation of a multi-tenant shopping center. Oxbridge Square Shopping Center is a community shopping center located in Richmond, VA, (the “Property”). The Property contains approximately 127,801 square feet of gross leasable space. In June 2004, Oxbridge Square Shopping Center, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Blue Ridge Real Estate Co. acquired the Property.

The accompanying financial statement has been prepared in accordance with the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for the acquisition of real estate properties. Accordingly, the financial statement excludes certain expenses because they may not be comparable to those expected to be incurred in the proposed future operations of the Property. Items excluded consist of interest, ground rent, commissions, depreciation and amortization not directly related to future operations.

2.     Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

3.     Revenue Recognition

The Properties are being leased to tenants under operating leases. Minimum rental income is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the leases.











<PAGE>

                                    5



4.     Future Minimum Rents Schedule

Future minimum lease payments to be received under non-cancelable operating leases for the years ending December 31 are as follows:

2004

$  920,848

2005

752,116

2006

536,595

2007

267,927

2008

    72,275


Total

$2,549,761



   In addition to the minimum rents, certain tenants are required to pay percentage rents if certain sales criteria are met.  Tenants are also required to pay common area maintenance, insurance and merchants’ association fees, which are included in rental income.


   Approximately 25% of the leasable space was vacant at December 31.  Substantially, all of the current tenants’ leases are due to expire within the next five years.  The two largest tenants occupy approximately 41% of the leasable space.
