Basis of presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of United Dominion Realty Trust, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including United Dominion Realty, L.P., its Operating Partnership, (collectively, the "Company"). As of September 30, 1998, United Dominion Realty Trust, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively "United Dominion") had an 84.2% interest in the Operating Partnership. The financial statements of the Company include the minority interest of unitholders in the Operating Partnership. As of September 30, 1998, there were 13,415,220 units in the Operating Partnership outstanding, of which 11,296,871, or 84.2% were owned by United Dominion and 2,118,349 or 15.8% were owned by non-affiliated limited partners. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In addition, in connection with the ASR Investment Corporation merger, the Company acquired Heritage Communities L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (Heritage OP). As of September 30,1998, there were 3,855,329 units in the Heritage OP outstanding, of which, 2,974,252, or 77.1% were owned by United Dominion and 22.9% were owned by non-affiliated limited partnerships. The consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for fair presentation of financial position at September 30, 1998 and results of operations for the interim periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997. Such adjustments are normal and recurring in nature. The interim results presented are not necessarily indicative of results that can be expected for a full year. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes appearing in the Company's December 31, 1997 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. 2.

(a) Variable-rate secured notes payable which have been effectively swapped to a fixed rate consist of a $ 31.7 million variable rate secured senior credit facility which encumbers five apartment communities and two variable rate construction notes payable aggregating $13.3 million. The Company has five interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate notional value of $45 million under which the Company pays a fixed-rate of interest and receives a variable rate on the notional amounts. The interest rate swap agreements effectively change the Company's interest rate exposure on $45 million from a variable-rate to a weighted average fixed rate of approximately 7.29%. 6 UNITED DOMINION REALTY TRUST, INC.

(c) Debentures include an investor put feature, which grants a one time option to redeem debentures in September 2004. The Company has a $200 million three-year unsecured revolving credit facility which matures August 4, 2000 and a $50 million one-year revolving line of credit facility which matures August 4, 1999. In addition to these facilities, a $15 million uncommitted unsecured line of credit is available to the Company until June 30, 1999. The Company also has outstanding $75 million aggregate principal amount of promissory notes (Promissory Notes) payable to certain banks. The Promissory Notes are dated September 30, 1998 and mature November 30, 1998. As of September 30, 1998, the Company had $307 million outstanding under the three credit facilities and the Promissory Notes. 7 UNITED DOMINION REALTY TRUST, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) 5. Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per common share is computed using net income available to common shareholders and the weighted average shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share is also computed using net income available to common shareholders, however, the weighted average shares outstanding are adjusted for potentially dilutive securities for the periods presented. The effect of the operating partnership units was antidilutive for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997, and is therefore not included in the following calculations. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

6. Pro Forma Financial Information On March 27, 1998, the Company completed the acquisition of ASR Investments Corporation (ASR) in a statutory merger. ASR was a publicly-traded multifamily REIT that owned and operated 39 communities with 7,550 apartment homes located in Arizona, Texas, New Mexico and the state of Washington. Each share of ASR's common stock was exchanged for 1.575 shares of the Company's common stock. The acquisition was structured as a tax-free transaction and was treated as a purchase for accounting purposes. In connection with the acquisition, the Company acquired primarily real estate assets totaling $313.7 million. Consideration given by the Company included 7,742,839 shares of the Company's common stock valued at $14 per share for an aggregate equity value of $108.4 million plus the issuance of 1,529,990 Units in the ASR Operating Partnership valued at $21.4 million. In addition, the Company assumed, at fair value, mortgage debt totaling $179.4 million and other liabilities of $13.6 million. Information concerning unaudited pro forma results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 are set forth below. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, such pro forma information assumes (i) the acquisition of ASR and (ii) the acquisition of 13 communities with 4,318 apartment homes for an aggregate purchase price of $144 million as if these transactions had occurred on January 1, 1997. For the nine months ended September 30, 1997, such pro forma information assumes the following transactions occurred on January 1, 1997: (i) the acquisition by the Company of 17 communities with 5,659 apartment homes at a total cost of $219 million and (ii) the acquisition by ASR of 22 communities with 4,208 apartment homes at a total cost of $176 million. 8

The unaudited information is not necessarily indicative of what the Company's consolidated results of operations would have been if the acquisitions had occurred at the beginning of each period presented. Additionally, the pro forma information does not purport to be indicative of the Company's results of operations for future periods. 7. Accounting Pronouncements As of January 1, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 130 "Reporting Comprehensive Income" (Statement 130). Statement 130 establishes new rules for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components; however, the adoption of Statement 130 had no impact on the Company's net income or stockholders' equity for each of the periods presented. On March 19, 1998, the Emerging Issues Task Force of the Financial Accounting Standards Board reached a consensus decision on Issue No. 97-11, "Accounting for Internal Costs Relating to Real Estate Property Acquisitions" which provides that internal costs of identifying and acquiring operating property should be expensed as incurred. The Company had historically capitalized, on a successful efforts basis, the direct internal costs of identifying and acquiring operating property and, accordingly, has realized an increase in expense with the adoption of this consensus on March 19, 1998. The Company does not expect the impact on net income to be material in 1998. In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" (Statement 133) which is required to be adopted in years beginning after June 15, 1999. Statement 133 permits early adoption as of the beginning of any fiscal quarter after its issuance, however, the Company does not anticipate adopting Statement 133 until such time as it is required. Statement 133 will require the Company to recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives that are not hedges must be adjusted to fair value through income. If the derivative is a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments are recognized through earnings or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of the derivative's change in fair value will be immediately recognized in net income. The Company has not yet determined what the effect of Statement 133 will be on earnings and the financial position of the Company, however, given the Company's current use of derivatives, management does not anticipate that the adoption of Statement 133 will have a significant effect on net income or the financial position of the Company. 8. Subsequent Events In order to reduce the interest rate risk associated with the anticipated issuance of unsecured notes during 1998, the Company entered into a $100 million (notional amount) fixed pay forward starting swap agreement (interest rate risk management agreement) with a major Wall Street investment banking firm in July 1997. The transaction allowed the Company to lock-in a ten year Treasury rate of 6.511% on or before November 9, 1998. This interest rate risk management agreement had an unfavorable position to the Company of $16.8 million at September 30, 1998. The Company settled the interest rate risk management agreement on November 9, 1998, by paying $15.6 million to the counterparty. The Company was unable to issue the unsecured notes contemplated by the interest rate risk management agreement, and accordingly, the cost associated with the settlement of this agreement will be expensed during the fourth quarter of 1998. On November 10, 1998, the Company sold an aggregate $212.5 million of senior unsecured notes payable in two simultaneous but separate public offerings which consist of the following: (i) $150 million of 8.125% Notes due November 15, 2000 and (ii) $62.5 million (including the over-allotment option) of 8.5% Monthly Income Notes due November 15, 2008. Net proceeds from the two offerings (net of underwriting discounts, commissions and offering expenses) of approximately $209.9 are expected to be received by the Company on November 17, 1998 and will be used to repay bank debt outstanding under the Company's various credit facilities. PART I Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Overview The Company considers portions of the information contained in Item 2. to include forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, it can give no assurance that its expectations will be achieved. The Company is engaged in the ownership, acquisition, development and operation of apartment communities throughout the country. Management's strategy is to transform the Company into a national, low cost provider of quality apartment homes. The Company has been implementing this strategy through the acquisition of portfolios of higher quality communities, the sale of lower quality communities, a greater commitment to development and the upgrade of older communities. The Company's investment strategy has focused on acquiring apartment communities in targeted strategic U.S. markets and geographically expanding into other strategic markets in the Mid West, Pacific Northwest and California. The Company intends to continue its expansion into other areas of the United States and enter into new markets as appropriate opportunities arise. The Company seeks to be a market leader by operating a sufficiently sized portfolio of apartments within each market in order to drive down operating costs through economies of scale and management efficiencies. The Company believes this market diversification increases investment opportunity and decreases the risk associated with cyclical local real estate markets and economies. 10 The following table summarizes the Company's apartment market information by strategic geographic market:

* Average monthly rental rates represent potential rent collections (gross potential rents less market adjustments), which approximate net effective rents. These figures exclude 1998 acquisitions. ** Physical occupancy is defined as rental income (potential rental collections less vacancy loss, management units, units held out of service and move-in concessions) divided by potential collections (gross potential rent less management units, units held out of service and move-in concessions) for the period, expressed as a percentage. *** The Physical Occupancy and Average Monthly Rental Rates for the nine months ended September 30, 1998, does not include communities which were acquired on March 27, 1998 in connection with the acquisition of ASR Investments Corporation. **** Average Monthly Rental Rates are not available for the communities included in this market which were acquired on July 2, 1998 and include development properties in lease-up and stabilization. 11 Liquidity and Capital Resources As a qualified real estate investment trust ("REIT"), the Company distributes a substantial portion of its cash flow to its shareholders in the form of quarterly distributions. The Company believes that cash provided by operations will be adequate to meet normal operating requirements and payment of distributions by the Company in accordance with REIT requirements in both the short and long term. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, the Company's cash flow from operating activities exceeded cash distributions paid to preferred and common shareholders and operating partnership unitholders by $31.9 million. The Company utilizes a variety of primarily external financing sources to fund portfolio growth, major capital improvement programs and balloon debt payments. The Company's bank lines of credit generally have been used to temporarily finance these expenditures, and subsequently this short-term bank debt has been replaced with longer term debt or equity. At September 30, 1998, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $28.5 million and amounts available under its various credit facilities aggregating $33 million. The Company has a $200 million three-year unsecured revolving credit facility which matures August 4, 2000 and a $50 million one-year revolving line of credit facility which matures August 4, 1999. In addition to these facilities, a $15 million uncommitted unsecured line of credit is available to the Company until June 30, 1999. The Company also has outstanding $75 million aggregate principal amount of promissory notes (Promissory Notes) payable to certain banks. The Promissory Notes are dated September 30, 1998 and mature November 30, 1998. As of September 30, 1998, the Company had $307 million outstanding under the three credit facilities and the Promissory Notes. On November 9, 1998, the Company received verbal assurance from one of its major lending banks of revised terms of certain credit facilities, including the extension, at the Company's discretion, of the maturity of the $75 million Promissory Notes from November 30, 1998 to November 30, 1999 and that an additional $50 million one-year revolving line of credit facility would be made available to the Company. The following discussion explains the changes in net cash provided by operating activities, net cash used for investing activities and net cash provided by financing activities which are presented in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Operating Activities For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, the Company's cash flow from operating activities increased $15.8 million over the same period last year. This increase is primarily due to the increased operating income from the Company's acquired communities, as well as increases in property operating income within the Company's mature apartment portfolio achieved through higher rental rates and decreased property operating expenses as discussed below and under "Results of Operations". Investing Activities During the nine months ended September 30, 1998, net cash used for investing activities was $172.4 million compared to $283.6 million for the same period last year. Changes in the level of investing activities from period to period primarily reflect the changing levels of the Company's acquisition, capital expenditure, development and sales programs. Acquisitions The Company seeks to acquire apartment communities in individual or portfolio transactions that can provide returns on investment in excess of the Company's cost of capital by the third year of ownership. These acquisitions typically have the prospect for future cash flow growth and appreciation. The Company is taking a very cautious view towards new investment commitments. During the remainder of 1998 and 1999, the Company does not plan to acquire apartment communities except to reinvest proceeds from property sales. During the first nine months of 1998, the Company acquired 24 communities with 7,055 apartment homes (excluding ASR) at a total cost (including closing costs) of $318.6 million or $45,200 per home. The communities acquired by market were as follows: 12

(a) These two properties are operating as one apartment community named The Trails. Mergers ASR MERGER On March 27, 1998, the Company completed the acquisition of ASR Investments Corporation in a statutory merger (the "Merger"). ASR was a publicly-traded multifamily REIT with apartment communities located in Arizona, Texas, New Mexico and the state of Washington. Each share of ASR's common stock was exchanged for 1.575 shares of the Company's common stock. The acquisition was structured as a tax-free transaction and was treated as a purchase for accounting purposes. In connection with the acquisition, the Company acquired primarily real estate assets totaling $313.7 million. Consideration given by the Company included 7,742,839 shares of the Company's common stock valued at $14 per share for an aggregate equity value of $108.4 million plus the issuance of 1,529,990 Units in the ASR Operating Partnership valued at $21.4 million. In addition, the Company assumed, at fair value, mortgage debt totaling $179.4 million and other liabilities of $13.6 million. The Merger both strengthened the Company's position in several long-term growth markets in the Southwest and established an initial presence in the Pacific Northwest. These communities are projected to produce a first year return on investment in the 9% range. The 7,550 apartment homes had a weighted average year built of 1984 and are geographically distributed as follows: Number of Number of City/State Apartment Communities Apartment Homes - ------------------------ --------------------- --------------- Houston, Texas 14 2,261 Dallas, Texas 8 1,889 Tucson, Arizona 8 1,112 Phoenix, Arizona 3 928 Albuquerque, New Mexico 3 548 Washington state 3 812 --- ------ Total 39 7,550 === ===== AAC MERGER On September 11, 1998, the Company, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (Merger Agreement) between the Company and American Apartment Communities II, Inc. (AAC). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each share of AAC common and preferred stock is entitled to receive 7.812742 shares of the Company's Series D Convertible Preferred Stock (Preferred Stock) and $46.1824 in cash. In exchange for the Preferred Stock and cash, the Company will acquire AAC's 79.1% interest in AAC II, LP. In addition, the Company entered into a Partnership Interest Purchase and Exchange Agreement (Partnership Exchange Agreement) between United Dominion Realty Trust, Inc., United Dominion Realty, L.P. (United Dominion's Operating Partnership) and American Apartment Communities Operating Partnership, L.P., AAC Management LLC and Schnitzer Investment Corporation (the Limited Partners). The Limited Partners own a combined 20.9% interest in AAC II, LP. In exchange for the Limited Partners 20.9% interest in AAC II, LP, the Company will issue 5,614,035 Operating Partnership Units (OP Units) and cash. The transaction has been structured as a tax-free merger and exchange of OP Units and will be treated as a purchase for accounting purposes. 13 In accordance with the Merger Agreement, the purchase price consists of the following: (i) 8,000,000 shares of 7.5% Series D Convertible Preferred Stock ($25 liquidation preference) which is convertible into the Company's common stock at $16.25 per share with a fair market value of $175 million, (ii) the issuance of 5,614,035 OP Units with an aggregate fair value of $67.4 million, (iii) the assumption of $466.2 million of secured notes payable at fair value, (iv) the assumption of other liabilities aggregating $24.7 million and (v) $56.5 million of cash. The aggregate purchase price of the Merger is estimated at approximately $806.0 million, including transaction costs. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 1998, however, there can be no assurances that this transaction will be consummated as planned. AAC owns 54 communities located in the West, Northwest, Midwest and Florida. The 54 communities contain 14,141 apartment homes with a weighted average year built of 1979. AAC's apartment communities are geographically distributed as follows:

Real estate under development Consistent with the Company's acquisition strategy, development activity has focused primarily within its strategic markets. During the first nine months of 1998, the Company invested approximately $63.0 million in development projects. 14 At September 30, 1998, the Company had 1,969 apartment homes under development as outlined below (dollars in thousands, except cost per home):

Due to the fact that the acquisitions market has become very competitive, the Company increased its commitment to development. The Company expects to invest approximately $150 million on the development of new communities and additional phases to existing communities during 1999. Capital Expenditures During the first nine months of 1998, the Company invested $55.3 million on capital improvements to its apartment portfolio. During this period, capitalized expenditures averaged $1,033 per home (on an annualized basis) for all apartment homes acquired prior to 1996. A significant portion of these expenditures are designed to increase revenues or reduce expenses. These improvements include the addition of intrusion alarms, sub-meters to pass the cost of water and sewer to residents, various interior upgrades and enhanced amenities such as business and fitness centers. These expenditures should allow the Company's communities to operate more effectively in competitive markets over the long-term. Capital expenditures for the full year 1998 are expected to be at or below 1997 levels. The Company has reduced its capital expenditures this year versus last year on its mature apartment homes, but will continue to add revenue-enhancing improvements as needed. 15 Disposition of investments In an effort to upgrade its apartment portfolio, the Company continually undertakes portfolio review analyses with the objective of identifying properties that no longer meet the Company's investment objectives due to size, location, age, quality and/or performance. These sales allow the Company to reduce the age of its existing portfolio, which should result in lower operating expense and capital expenditure growth associated with the older properties. The sales are initially dilutive to earnings as the initial returns on investment on higher quality apartments are lower than the returns on investment on the communities being sold. On January 20, 1998, the Company sold a portfolio of five apartment communities containing 2,406 apartment homes, which had a weighted average age of 21 years for an aggregate sales price of $65.6 million. The transaction was structured to qualify as a like-kind exchange under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code, so the related capital gain will be deferred for federal income tax purposes. These five communities, all located in Texas, were acquired on December 31, 1996 in connection with the South West Property Trust Inc. Merger ("South West Merger"), and accordingly, no significant gain or loss was recorded for financial reporting purposes. On April 24, 1998, the Company sold a portfolio of eleven Southeast apartment communities containing 2,303 homes, which had a weighted average age of 24 years for an aggregate sales price of $69.4 million. For income tax purposes, eight of the eleven communities sold were structured to qualify as a tax deferred exchange so that the related capital gains will be deferred. The Company realized a $21.2 million gain on the sale for financial reporting purposes in the second quarter of 1998. Financing Activities Net cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 was $73.4 million compared to $164.4 million for the same period last year. Cash provided by financing activities During the first quarter of 1998, the Company entered into two separate transactions to sell its common stock to Unit Investment Trusts ("UIT"). In February 1998, the Company issued 1.7 million shares of its common stock at a gross sales price of $14.31 per share to a UIT. In March 1998, the Company issued 1.1 million shares of its common stock at a gross sales price of $14.19 to a second UIT. The net proceeds from the two UIT's aggregating $38.0 million were primarily used to curtail bank debt. The Company issued 2,455,558 shares of its common stock and received $32.8 million under its Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (the "Plan") during the first nine months of 1998, which included $23.2 million in optional cash investments and $9.6 million of reinvested distributions. Derivative Instruments The Company has, from time to time, used derivative instruments to synthetically alter on-balance sheet liabilities to hedge anticipated transactions. Derivative contracts did not have a material impact on the results of operations during the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997. In order to reduce the interest rate risk associated with the anticipated issuance of unsecured notes during 1998, the Company entered into a $100 million (notional amount) fixed pay forward starting swap agreement (interest rate risk management agreement) with a major Wall Street investment banking firm in July 1997. The transaction allowed the Company to lock-in a ten year Treasury rate of 6.511% on or before November 9, 1998. This interest rate risk management agreement had an unfavorable position to the Company of $16.8 million at September 30, 1998. The Company settled the interest rate risk management agreement on November 9, 1998, by paying $15.6 million to the counterparty. During the fourth quarter of 1998, the Company was unable to issue the unsecured notes contemplated by the interest rate risk management agreement, and accordingly, the cost associated with the settlement of this agreement will be expensed during the fourth quarter of 1998. On November 10, 1998, the Company sold an aggregate $212.5 million of senior unsecured notes payable in two simultaneous but separate public offerings which consist of the following: (i) $150 million of 8.125% Notes due November 15, 2000 and (ii) $62.5 million (including the over-allotment option) of 8.5% Monthly Income Notes due November 15, 2008. Net proceeds from the two offerings (net of underwriting discounts, commissions and offering expenses) of approximately $209.9 million will be used to repay bank debt outstanding under the Company's various credit facilities. 16 Funds from Operations Funds from operations ("FFO") is defined as income before gains (losses) on sales of investments, minority interest of unitholders in operating partnership and extraordinary items (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles) plus real estate depreciation, less preferred dividends and after adjustment for significant non-recurring items, if any. The Company computes FFO in accordance with the recommendations set forth by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"). The Company considers FFO in evaluating property acquisitions and its operating performance, and believes that FFO should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, net income and cash flows as a measure of the Company's operating performance and liquidity. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. For the three months ended September 30, 1998, FFO increased 20.7% to $35.1 million, compared with $29.1 million for the same period last year. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, FFO increased 18.9% to $102.7 million, compared with $86.4 million for the same period last year. The increase in FFO was principally due to the increased property operating income from the Company's non-mature apartment homes acquired and developed subsequent to January 1, 1997.

Results of Operations The Company's net income available to common shareholders is primarily generated from the operations of its apartment communities. For purposes of evaluating the Company's comparative operating performance, the Company categorizes its apartment communities into two categories, same community and non-mature. For the 1998 versus 1997 comparison, these communities are as follows: (i) same community--those communities acquired, developed and stabilized prior to January 1, 1997 and held throughout the first nine months of 1998 and 1997 and (ii) non-mature--those communities acquired, developed or sold subsequent January 1, 1997. The Company's apartment operations are divided into three geographic regions, each of which constitutes a core operating unit. Based on the total number of apartment homes, the Northern Region constitutes 40.0% of the Company's apartment portfolio and includes Delaware, Maryland, Virginia and northern North Carolina. The Southern Region constitutes 37.4% of the Company's portfolio and includes Charlotte, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Florida and Alabama. The Western Region constitutes 22.6% of the Company's apartment portfolio and includes Texas, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Nevada, New Mexico, Arizona and Washington. For the three months ended September 30, 1998, net income available to common shareholders decreased $9.5 million primarily due to the $9.3 million ($.11 per share) aggregate gains on the sales of investments included in the 1997 period. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, net income available to common shareholders increased $5.6 million primarily as a result of the increase in the weighted average number of apartment homes owned. Net income available to common shareholders for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 included aggregate gains of $20.5 million ($.20 per share) and $12.7 million ($.15 per share), respectively, on the sales of investments (see "Disposition of Investments"). The combination of initially lower returns on newer, higher quality replacement acquisitions together with the money market returns earned on escrowed funds required to complete 1031 exchanges had a cost of $.006 per share and $.026 per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998, respectively. 17 All Apartment Communities The operating performance of the Company's 270 communities with 72,394 apartment homes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998, and 220 communities with 61,099 apartment homes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997, respectively, is summarized in the chart below (dollars in thousands):

18 For the nine months ended September 30,1998, the Company's same communities provided approximately 71.5% of the Company's property rental income and 72.9% of its property operating income. During the first nine months of 1998, the Company's same communities continued to generate rent growth. Compared to the same period last year, total property rental income from these apartment homes grew 3.5%, or $8.4 million, reflecting an increase in average monthly rents of 3.5% to $599 per month. A portion of the rent growth reflected the impact of the Company's upgrade and revenue enhancing capital expenditure programs. During the first nine months of 1998, the operating margin improved 2.1% to 59.9% as a result of increased property rental income. For the quarter ended September 30, 1998 total property rental income grew 3.3% or $2.7 million, reflecting the 3.6% increase in average monthly rental rates to $605 as physical occupancy remained flat compared to the same period last year. The operating margin improved 1.5% to 59.1% as a result of increased property rental income during this period. The Company expects to maintain annualized rent growth in the 3 to 3 1/2% range and physical occupancy in the 92% range during the remainder of 1998. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, property operating expenses at these communities decreased 1.5%, or $1.5 million. This decline is primarily the result of two factors: (i) lower utility expenses directly attributable to the Company's water sub-metering initiative and (ii) overall decreases in repairs and maintenance and other operating expenses. The decreases in repairs and maintenance and other operating expenses occurred as the Company has begun to benefit from its upgrade program. In addition, the Company has taken advantage of economies of scale due to its increased size and centralized purchasing. For the quarter ended September 30, 1998, property operating expenses decreased .2% or $78,000 due to the same factors discussed above. The Company's objective is to maintain annualized property operating expense growth in the 2% range during the remainder of 1998. Non-Mature Communities The operating performance for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998 for the Company's 91 non-mature communities with 24,464 apartment homes is summarized in the chart below (dollars in thousands): Three Months Ended September 30:

For the quarter ended September 30, 1998, these communities had physical occupancy of 89.8% (including Development Properties undergoing lease-up) and an operating margin of 54.2%. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, these communities had physical occupancy of 88.8% (including Development Properties undergoing lease-up) and an operating margin of 55.8%. 19 1997 Acquisitions The 27 communities containing 8,524 apartment homes (net of one resold) included in this category had average monthly rental rates of $600, physical occupancy of 91.6% and an operating margin of 57.3% for the first nine months of 1998. For the third quarter of 1998, these communities had average monthly rental rates of $607, physical occupancy of 93.2% and an operating margin of 56.6%. The annualized return on investment for these communities for the nine months ended September 30, 1998, on an average investment of approximately $354.1 million, was 9.2%. 1998 Acquisitions Included in this category are the following: (i) the 24 communities with 7,055 apartment homes acquired by the Company during the first nine months of 1998 which are projected to have a first year return on investment in the 9% range and (ii) the 39 communities with 7,550 apartment homes included in the ASR portfolio acquired on March 27, 1998. A number of the 1998 acquisitions, including the ASR communities are in Phoenix, Tuscon and Albuquerque, which are both soft and somewhat seasonal markets. However, better results from these communities are anticipated in the fourth quarter of 1998. Sales Included in this category are the 29 communities with 7,518 apartment homes sold as part of the Company's disposition program (see Disposition of investments under Liquidity and Capital Resources) since January 1, 1997. The net proceeds from the sales of these communities were reinvested in the 1997 and 1998 acquisitions discussed above. Development This represents the 1,464 homes developed at various times since January 1, 1997 which includes three new apartment community and seven additional phases to existing communities. These communities did not have a material impact on the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998. Real Estate Depreciation Real estate depreciation increased $7.2 million or 36.3% and $18.3 million or 33.3% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998, respectively over the same periods last year. These increases are directly attributable to the addition of depreciable real estate assets as a result of the Company's acquisition, development and capital expenditure programs. Interest Expense Interest expense increased $7.9 million and $17.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998, respectively over the same periods last year. The weighted average amount of debt employed during the first nine months of 1998 was higher than it was for the same period during 1997 ($1.4 billion in 1998 versus $1.1 billion in 1997). For both the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998, the weighted average interest rate on this debt was slightly lower than it was during the same periods last year, decreasing from 7.5% in 1997 to 7.4% in 1998. For the quarter ended September 30, 1998, the weighted average amount of debt outstanding was higher than the same period last year ($1.5 billion in 1998 versus $1.1 billion in 1997). For the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998, total interest capitalized on the Company's development communities was $910,000 and $2.2 million, respectively. General and Administrative During the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998, general and administrative expenses increased by $915,000 and $2.0 million over the same periods last year primarily due to (i) the added infrastructure costs incurred due to the increased size of the Company and (ii) the change in accounting for internal acquisition costs subsequent to March 19, 1998 (See Footnote 7-Accounting Pronouncements). Inflation The Company believes that the direct effects of inflation on the Company's operations have been inconsequential. 20 Year 2000 The Company continues to address issues regarding the transition to Year 2000 as it is dependent on computer systems and applications to conduct its business. The Company performed a preliminary assessment earlier in 1998, and it believes that its personal computers, desktop software, servers and major applications are Year 2000 compliant (both at property and corporate locations). To ensure that the Company completed a formalized and thorough assessment of its Year 2000 issues, an outside consulting firm has been engaged to conduct a Year 2000 assessment and develop a remediation plan. The plans covers four stages: (i) inventory, (ii) assessment, (iii) remediation and (iv) testing and certification. The Company has substantially completed the inventory stage for its Company owned systems and applications. The assessment processes are approximately 80% complete and should be completed by January 15, 1999. The Company believes that it has identified all of its information technology (IT) and non-IT systems to assess its Year 2000 readiness. The Company plans to complete its Year 2000 project, no later than the third quarter of 1999. Inherent in all phases is assessing the Year 2000 compliance of the Company's vendors and other external relationships to determine the extent to which the Company may be vulnerable to such parties' failure to resolve their own Year 2000 issues. The Company has initiated formal communication with these parties. However, the Company cannot assure timely compliance of third parties and therefore could be adversely affected by failure of a significant third party to become Year 2000 compliant. The effect, if any, on the Company's results of operations from the failure of such parties to be Year 2000 ready is not reasonably estimable. At this time, the Company cannot estimate the aggregate cost of its Year 2000 issues of third parties. Amounts expended to ensure Year 2000 compliance are expected to be funded by cash flows from operations and are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. The Company estimates that the total Year 2000 project cost will be in the $100,000 range, of which approximately 25% has been incurred as of September 30, 1998. The Company believes that its Year 2000 initiatives are adequate to address reasonably likely Year 2000 issues. 21 PART II Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS Neither the Company nor any of its apartment communities is presently subject to any material litigation nor, to the Company's knowledge, is any litigation threatened against the Company or any of the communities, other than routine actions arising in the ordinary course of business, some of which are expected to be covered by liability insurance and all of which collectively are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the business or financial condition or results of operations of the Company.
