PART I
Item 1. Business
Registrant has two principal activities, Residential Land
Development and Construction and Rental Property Ownership and Management,
primarily in the Washington, DC Metropolitan Area.
Residential Land Development and Construction
Registrant owns two partially developed residential tracts of land
within the greater Washington, D.C. area. On one of these tracts it develops
residential lots for sale and constructs townhouses as part of a residential
subdivision and on the other tract Registrant develops residential lots for
sale. Registrant may decide to sell certain of its land if it determines that it
is in the best interest of Registrant to do so.
Registrant designs and constructs its homes in accordance with its
periodic evaluation of the prevailing market for new homes. Its current plan is
to continue to build town homes that appeal to the entry-level purchaser.
Registrant generally avoids custom features and offers a limited number of home
models.
A. Registrant's Homebuilding Projects
1. Skyline Hill's, Prince George's County, Maryland. This project
consisted of 179 single-family homes and 43 townhomes and has been completed.
The last 9 single-family homes and 5 townhomes were settled in 1999.
2. St. Mary's County, Maryland. This project consists of 64
subdivided residential lots, all of which have been sold, and 31 farmsteads, of
15 to 30 acres each. As of March 12, 2001, 7 farmsteads totaling 193 acres
remain to be sold.
3. Yorkshire Knolls, Prince George's County, Maryland. This project
consists of 252 townhomes on a 31.5 acre tract. Clearing and grading for the
entire project is complete. 42 homes were sold and settled during 2000. As of
March 12, 2001, a total of 172 homes were settled and 31 homes are under
contract of sale. One completed home remains to be sold. 43 townhomes remain to
be developed and sold. In addition, there are 5 model homes which Registrant
will offer for sale at the completion of the project.
-------------------------
In the sale of homes Registrant utilizes furnished models. Sales are
made by independent real estate brokers to whom a commission is paid. When
Registrant enters into an agreement of sale for a home, it generally receives a
deposit of $500 to $2,000 as is customary in its area of business. These
deposits may be refundable under certain circumstances, including Registrant's
inability to complete construction within specified time periods, or the
purchaser's inability to secure financing. Registrant generally receives the
balance of the purchase price in cash upon the closing of the sale, but has in
the past occasionally taken a note secured by a junior mortgage for a portion of
the purchase price.
2
Although it is the responsibility of the home purchaser to obtain
financing for his purchase, Registrant seeks to obtain mortgage commitments from
lending institutions for its customers (subject to verification of individual
customer credit status) for purchases of homes in its developments. Registrant
may also be required to pay the lender a discount or points at the closing of
each loan.
Because of its seasonal nature, home sales generally decline in the
first quarter of Registrant's fiscal year.
B. Rental Property Ownership and Management.
1. 7800 Building. Registrant owns a 15,460 square foot office
building in northern Virginia known as the 7800 Building. The building is 100%
leased.
2. Bank Building. Registrant owns a 3,478 square foot building in
northern Virginia. This building is leased to a bank. The lease terminates in
December, 2001, subject to the tenant's option to renew for up to four
successive five-year terms.
3. Paradise Sudley North Office Buildings. Registrant's subsidiary
is the sole general partner of Paradise Sudley North Limited Partnership
("Sudley"), owner of a 16.35 acre parcel in northern Virginia. Registrant owns
98.75% of this partnership.
Sudley has developed on this site four office buildings, which
contain approximately 184,888 square feet of space. Buildings A, B and C are
owned by Sudley. Building D is owned by Paradise Sudley North Building D
Partnership, a joint venture in which Sudley is a 50% partner and a Limited
Liability Company controlled by the Chief Executive Officer of Registrant is the
owner of the remaining 50%.
Building A, 22,728 square feet, is 100% leased.
Building B, 62,420 square feet, is 100% leased.
Building C, 30,366 square feet, is 100% leased.
Building D, 69,374 square feet, is 100% leased to the Prince
William County, Virginia government ("PWC")under a lease which expires December,
2009. PWC, at its option, may extend the term for an additional five (5) years.
4. Fort Hill Office Building. In September 2000, Ft. Hill Office
Associates, LLC purchased a 65,472 square feet office building located in
northern Virginia. The Registrant, through subsidiaries, holds an 80% interest
in this limited liability company. In December 2000, a loan of $5,750,000 was
placed on this property.
5. Apartments. Registrant owns and operates two apartment projects,
one in Greenbelt, MD and one in southwest Washington, DC a total of 294 units.
Registrant constructed these apartment buildings. As of December 31, 2000,
approximately 99% of Registrant's apartment units were rented.
Apartment leases generally provide for a fixed monthly rental over a
one-year term and the tenant normally gives a security deposit. Registrant
estimates that the average length of occupancy of an apartment by its tenants is
approximately 5 years. All of Registrant's properties are in good condition, and
in the opinion of Registrant, are adequately covered by fire and other casualty
insurance.
3
6. Southwest Washington, D.C. Urban Renewal Area. Since 1964,
Registrant has been the redeveloper of a portion of the southwest Washington,
D.C. Urban Renewal Area (the "Area"), located immediately south of the "Federal
Mall" which extends from the United States Capitol Building to the Washington
Monument. Registrant has performed each of its principal business activities, as
well as building construction for others, in this Area.
The Company has developed in this area a shopping-office center
("Mall Complex") which consists of two high-rise office buildings ("Office
Buildings") containing approximately 326,000 square feet, an enclosed center
("Center") consisting of approximately 740,000 square feet, most of which is
office space, approximately 1,100 parking spaces and approximately 78,000 square
feet of storage space. These improvements have been constructed on ground leased
from The District of Columbia Redevelopment Land Agency ("RLA") for a term
expiring in 2058. Under the RLA lease, Registrant is responsible for all
expenses relating to the land, including real estate taxes and utilities.
Prior to July 1, 2000 four entities held ownership interest in the
Mall Complex. The Registrant owned the east portion of the Center, excluding the
southeast wing; SEW Investors ("SEW") held the leasehold interest in the
southeast wing of the Center; Trilon Plaza Company ("Trilon") held the leasehold
interest in the west portion of the Center and the west office building; and
Town Center East Investors ("TCE") owned the leasehold interest in the east
office building.
Trilon is a limited partnership in which a substantial majority
interest owned by Messrs. Bresler and Reiner, and whose wholly owned corporation
is the general partner. SEW is a limited partnership in which the Company is the
general partner and owns a 1% interest and Messrs. Bresler and Reiner each own
an 18% interest. TCE is a limited partnership in which the Company is the
general partner and in which prior to July 1, 2000 the Company owned a
49.568966% interest.
A. GSA Lease. The United States General Services Administration
("GSA") leases all of the space in the two Office Buildings, as well as the
second and third floors of the adjacent Center and a portion of another smaller
structure at an annual rental of approximately $23.1 million for approximately
955,000 square feet plus 216,000 square feet of parking space (the "GSA Lease").
The GSA Lease covers 89.4% of the total space in the Mall Complex.
The GSA Lease expires in September, 2002. The Environmental
Protection Agency ("EPA"), the principal occupant under the GSA Lease, is in the
process of relocating to new facilities and is vacating portions of the Mall
Complex prior to the lease expiration.
Registrant received $374,000 in leasing fees and $271,000 in
management fees in the first six months of 2000 as the result of the GSA Lease.
(See Management Discussion and Analysis.)
The commercial tenants in the Mall Complex rely heavily on business
generated by the employees who occupy the GSA Lease space. If GSA does not place
other tenants in the space being vacated by EPA, the commercial tenants may
vacate and cause Registrant to lose substantial revenue.
B. Center. Approximately 630,000 square feet of the Center is
included in the GSA Lease. The balance of the commercial space and a small
amount of the office space is leased to other tenants or is vacant. The Center
includes approximately 1,100 parking spaces located in an underground parking
garage and adjacent parking areas, most of which is included in the GSA Lease.
4
C. Office Buildings. Located in the Mall Complex are two matching 14
story office buildings, one on the east side of the Center and the other on the
west side of the Center, which are included in the GSA Lease and are managed by
Registrant. The Office Buildings contain 326,000 square feet of rentable space.
D. Leasehold Assignments. On July 1, 2000, TCE distributed to
Registrant a 49.567966% interest of its leasehold in the Mall Complex. In
addition, on July 1, 2000, TCE assigned to Registrant its remaining interest in
the Mall Complex and SEW assigned its interest in the Mall Complex to
Registrant. In connection with these assignments, Registrant paid cash of $2.1
million and $1.6 million and issued notes of $4.9 million and $3.6 million to
TCE and SEW, respectively. Registrant assigned these newly acquired leasehold
interests, in addition to one which the Company previously owned to a newly
formed entity, B&R Waterfront Properties, LLC ("BRW"). Registrant is the
managing member and holds a 54% interest in BRW. The results of operation of BRW
have been reported on a consolidated basis with elimination of the minority
interest.
On July 1, 2000 Trilon and an affiliate assigned to BRW their
leasehold interests in the Mall Complex in exchange for a 46% membership
interest in BRW.
E. Management and Leasing. Registrant acted as managing and leasing
agent, through June 30, 2000, for Trilon and SEW for their portions of the Mall
Complex. From July 1, 2000 through the end of the year, Registrant acted as
management and leasing Agent for BRW (see Leasehold Assignments below). Pursuant
to GAAP accounting, effective July 1, 2000, leasing and management fees are
eliminated for consolidated financial statement purposes. See "Management of
Rental Properties".
See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations- Rental Income- Commercial" for more information.
7. Town Center East Apartment Buildings. On August 1, 1979,
Registrant assigned its leasehold interest in two high rise apartment buildings
in the redevelopment area, with 256 units, known as Town Center East Apartments,
to Third Street Southwest Investors, a limited partnership. Registrant is the
sole general partner in this limited partnership, with a 1% interest, and acts
as management agent for the project. In this partnership, 91% of the limited
partnership interests are held by unaffiliated persons, and the remaining 8% of
the limited partnership interests are held by Charles S. Bresler, Chairman and
Chief Executive Officer of Registrant and Burton J. Reiner, its President.
Registrant manages these buildings. See "Management of Rental Properties".
8. Low Income Housing. Registrant has interests in the following
limited partnerships which are operating low-income housing units:
A. Multi-State Projects. On November 15, 1988, Registrant purchased
99% limited partnership interests in each of seven limited partnerships, which
collectively have constructed 266 rental apartments. The projects are located in
small communities in Maryland (3), Pennsylvania (1), Virginia (2) and West
Virginia (1). At March 1, 2001, the projects were 99% occupied. The projects are
financed by Farmers Home Administration mortgages and enjoy the benefits of low
income housing credits against federal income tax authorized under Section 42 of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (the "Code"). The purchase price
for such limited partnership interests was $5,270,048 in the aggregate, which
has been fully paid.
5
B. Windsor, Connecticut Project. On April 27, 1989, Registrant
purchased a 97% limited partnership interest in a Connecticut limited
partnership. This partnership converted a former schoolhouse into 40 residential
apartments in Windsor, Connecticut, a suburb of Hartford. The partnership
received the certificate of occupancy for the apartments and was eligible for
both Federal historic tax credit and Federal low income housing credits against
Federal income tax as authorized under Section 42 of the Code. The purchase
price for the partnership interest, payable in installments over the ten (10)
years the credits are available, is approximately $1,130,000, of which $664,000
was paid as of December 31, 1998. The purchase price is to be adjusted based on
the tax benefits generated annually. The loan has been in default. The general
partner deeded the property to the lender in 1999. As a result, the Registrant
had a tax credit recapture in 1999 of approximately $147,000 which was offset by
its other tax credits, and also recognized ordinary taxable income of
$1,940,000.
C. Orlando, Florida Project. On July 17, 1989, Registrant purchased
a 90% limited partnership interest in a Florida limited partnership. The general
partners of the partnership are three individuals and PAC Land Development
Corporation, a Florida real estate development company ("PAC"). The partnership
developed and constructed a 28 acre, 312 unit apartment project in Orlando,
Florida, of which 63 units are eligible for Federal low income housing credits
and the balance of 249 units are market rate apartments. The purchase price for
the partnership interest was $1,600,000. In August, 1999 this partnership sold
the apartment property. As a result of this sale, in 1999 Registrant recognized
ordinary taxable income of $5,627,000 and a tax credit recapture of
approximately $264,000 which was offset by its other tax credits. (See
Management Discussion and Analysis).
D. St. Mary's County, Maryland Project. On November 22, 1989,
Registrant purchased a 79% limited partnership interest in Foxchase Village
Associates Limited Partnership, which has constructed a 134 unit apartment
project in St. Mary's County, Maryland. The project is eligible for Federal low
income housing credits against Federal income tax authorized under Section 42 of
the Code over the first ten years after occupancy. The purchase price for the
partnership interest was $3,200,000. 92% of the apartments were occupied as of
December 31, 2000.
Competition. In each of the areas where Registrant's rental
properties are located, there are buildings which offer similar accommodations
at approximately the same rentals. The rents charged by Registrant for its
apartment properties in the District of Columbia are subject to rent control
regulation.
Management of Rental Properties. Registrant, through a subsidiary,
has contracts to act as managing agent and, in certain cases, leasing agent, for
residential and commercial projects of certain partnerships in which Registrant
is a general partner, and of certain partnerships in which Charles S. Bresler
and Burton J. Reiner, officers, directors, and principal shareholders of
Registrant, have substantial interests and other directors and officers have

for advertising and trading services. The Holiday Inn Express license agreement
will expire in March, 2007.
There are other motels in the immediate vicinity of Registrant's
Holiday Inn property. The motel business in the Washington, D.C. area is highly
competitive.

Hotel, a 5,200 square foot restaurant, leased to an unrelated operator, 7,600
square feet of retail and office space and a 137 parking space garage. Hotel
occupancy averaged 71% in both 2000 and in 1999. The average daily room rate in
2000 was $127.01 as compared to $122.82 in 1999.
7
Pine Club Phase II Limited Partnership, Orlando, Florida. Registrant
held a 64.35% limited partnership interest in Pine Club Phase II, Ltd., a
Florida limited partnership. The general partners of this partnership are three
unaffiliated individuals and PAC, who own with others, in the aggregate, a
35.65% partnership interest.
The partnership constructed 160 residential apartment units on
approximately 14 acres of land in Orlando, Orange County, Florida. This land is
contiguous to Registrant's low-income housing and market rate housing project in
Orlando, Florida previously discussed under "Low Income Housing - Orlando,
Florida Project". In August 1999 this partnership sold the apartment property
and recognized ordinary taxable income of $3,006,000. (See Management Discussion
and Analysis).
Convenience Stores. In June, 1986, Registrant acquired 16 parcels of
real estate, on which Circle K Corporation operated convenience stores. These
properties are located in the southern and southeastern United States. The
aggregate purchase price was $3,390,000. At the time of the purchase all of the
stores were under lease through February, 2000, on a net basis, to Circle K
Corporation. On May 15, 1990, Circle K and certain of its affiliates filed
Petitions under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. One of Circle K's rights
under the Bankruptcy Code was to affirm or reject the rental leases on its
stores. At various times, Circle K rejected a total of twelve of the sixteen
leases owned by Registrant. Circle K has exercised its option to renew these
four leases through February, 2005. As of March 15, 2000, five of these stores
were sold, seven of these stores are leased to unrelated parties, with one under
contract of sale. The remaining four stores have not yet been sold or leased.
Nursing Home. Registrant owns a New Jersey nursing home facility,
Lakeview Manor, which it leases to an unaffiliated operating company.
Lakeview Manor is a 120-bed nursing home facility in Lakewood, New
Jersey. The skilled and intermediate care facility is located on State Road 88,
Ocean County, New Jersey, approximately 60 miles south of New York City. The
one-story building of approximately 37,000 square feet, with brick exterior, is
situated on 11 acres of land.
Registrant has leased the nursing home to an unaffiliated operator
for a term of 10 years, commencing June 1, 1994. The monthly rent was $48,295
for the first five years. The monthly rent has increased to $53,245, effective
June 1, 1999. Tenant has several renewal options for up to 20 additional years.
The lessee pays taxes and other operating expenses, and is responsible for all
structural and nonstructural repairs and replacements. The lessee has a right of
first refusal in the event Registrant seeks to sell the property. The nursing
home operator has filed a petition for reorganization under the Federal
Bankruptcy Act. Registrant is continuing to receive rent in a timely fashion.
The lessee may assign the lease to another experienced nursing home operator,
subject to certain conditions.
There are several other nursing homes in Lakewood, New Jersey. The
Nursing Home business is highly competitive. Nursing homes operate under state
licenses and are subject to extensive governmental regulations. Should Lakeview
Manor not be in compliance with these regulations, it would be subject to
termination of its qualification for federal assistance payment or termination
of its operating license by federal or state regulators.

D. Equipment Leasing and Vending
Registrant previously engaged in personal property leveraged
equipment leasing, both directly and through subsidiaries and general
partnerships.
In December, 1983, Registrant, with others, organized a general
partnership to engage in equipment leasing known as Builders Leasing Company,
and agreed to act as its managing partner with a 20% interest. The initial $2
million capital of the partnership was contributed by each partner, in
proportion to his percentage interest, over five years in semiannual
installments. In addition to the initial capitalization, the partners
contributed $1,150,000 to the capital of the partnership in 1988, 1989 and 1990.
Registrant's capital contribution to date totals $630,000. Certain directors and
officers of Registrant also hold an aggregate of 25% of the partnership
interests, including Charles S. Bresler, Chairman of the Board and principal
shareholder (20%), and Burton J. Reiner, President, director and principal
shareholder (5%).
Builders Leasing Company owns transportation barges and petroleum
transportation vehicles. The partners are personally liable for debt of Builders
Leasing, with a balance at December 31, 2000 of about $1,389,000.
In February 1984 Registrant organized Tech-High Leasing Company, a
general partnership in which it holds a 50% interest. The other 50% is held by a
non-affiliated corporation. Registrant and its partner have each contributed
$1,100,000.
Neither Registrant nor these partnerships are currently entering
into new equipment leases. The lease portfolios have been substantially reduced.
Employment
On March 15, 2001, Registrant and its subsidiaries employed
approximately 111 persons.

Factors That May Affect Our Future Results
(Cautionary Statements Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995)
Certain information included in this report or in other materials we
have filed or will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (as well as
information included in oral statements or other written statements made or to
be made by the Registrant) contains or may contain forward-looking statements
within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. You
can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to
historical or current facts. They contain words like "anticipate," "estimate,"
"expect," "project," "intend," "plan," "believe," "may," "could," "might" and
other words or phrases of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of
future operating or financial performance. Such statements include information
relating to plans for home building activities, other construction activities,
land acquisition and related activities, hotel operations, apartment and
commercial rental activities, management and leasing activities, the renovation
and releting of the commercial space now being leased to the GSA, as well as
capital spending, financing sources and the effects of regulation and
competition. From time to time, forward-looking statements are also included in
the Registrant's other periodic reports on Forms 10-Q and 8-K, in press releases
and in other material released to the public.
9
Any or all of the forward-looking statements included in this report
and in any other reports or public statements of the Registrant may turn out to
be inaccurate. This can occur as a result of incorrect assumptions or as a
consequence of known or unknown risks and uncertainties. Many factors mentioned
in this report or in other reports or public statements of the Registrant, such
as government regulation and the competitive environment, will be important in
determining the Registrant's future performance. Consequently, actual results
may differ materially from those that might be anticipated from forward-looking
statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking
statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
However, any further disclosures made on related subjects in our subsequent
reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K should be consulted. The following
cautionary discussion of risks, uncertainties and possible inaccurate
assumptions relevant to our business includes factors we believe could cause our
actual results to differ materially from expected and historical results. Other
factors beyond those listed below could also adversely affect us. This
discussion is provided as permitted by the Private Securities Litigation Reform
Act of 1995.
We operate in a very competitive environment, which is characterized
by competition from a number of other home builders, commercial property owners
and managers and other hotel and motel properties in each market in which we
operate. Actions or changes in plans by competitors may negatively affect the
Registrant.
Our business can be affected by changes in general economic and
market conditions as well as local economic and market conditions where our
operations are conducted and where our properties are located.
The plans for future development of our residential communities and
the renovation and releting of our commercial properties in southwest
Washington, D.C. can be affected by a number of factors including, for example,
time delays in obtaining necessary governmental permits and approvals.
The sale of homes and lots in our residential communities may be
affected by circumstances beyond our control, including weather interference,
work stoppages, labor disputes, unforeseen engineering, environmental or
geological problems, unanticipated shortages, increases in the cost of materials
and labor and the ability of our customers to finance the purchase of their
homes or lots. Any of these circumstances could give rise to delays in the
completion of or increase the cost of developing one or more of our residential
communities.
We believe that our recorded tax balances are adequate. However, it
is not possible to predict the effects of possible changes in the tax laws or
changes in their interpretation. These changes or interpretations if made, could
have a material negative effect on our operating results.
Claims have been brought against us in various legal proceedings,
which have not had, and are not expected to have material adverse effect on the
business or the financial condition of the Registrant; however, additional legal

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.
Registrant, SEW, Town Center Management Company (a subsidiary of
Registrant), Bresler-Reiner Companies (a subsidiary of Registrant), and Trilon
are defendants in a civil suit case no. 90-CA10594 filed October 12, 1990 in the
Superior Court of the District of Columbia by Joanne Bahura, et. al. (the
"Plaintiffs"). The Plaintiffs are 19 individuals who state they are all present
or former employees of the Environmental Protection Agency, which occupies
certain office space in the Mall Complex. Four spouses of such employees are
also plaintiffs. See "Management and Leasing", "Southwest Washington, D.C. Urban
Renewal Area", "Office Buildings" and "Center" in Item 1 above. The Complaint,
as amended (the "Complaint"), alleges that (i) the defendants are the owners of
the Mall Complex and (ii) certain renovations and reconstruction to the Mall
Complex were done in such a manner as to cause the Plaintiffs multiple
physiological and physical symptoms.
The Complaint seeks damages aggregating $40,000,000 under claims of
negligence, breach of warranty of habitability, breach of contract, strict
liability, loss of consortium and punitive damages. The claims of six plaintiffs
were tried to a jury from October 25 to December 23, 1993, with verdicts for
plaintiffs totaling $948,000. No punitive damages were awarded. The judgments in
favor of four defendants were overturned following trial, reducing the total
award to $232,000. Plaintiffs filed an appeal. The Court of Appeals reversed the
trial judge. The cases of fourteen primary plaintiffs and three loss of
consortium plaintiffs remain to be tried. Management believes the claims are
without merit and intends to continue to contest the case vigorously.
In prior years three "copy cat" suits were filed. Two have been
dismissed with prejudice and the third suit is in discovery. Management believes
this remaining suit is without merit and intends to contest the case vigorously.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Results of Operation
Sales of Homes and Lots
During 2000, Registrant sold 42 homes and 1 lot for $6,243,000 as
compared with 43 homes in 1999 totaling $6,370,000 and 41 homes in 1998 totaling
$5,672,000.
As of March 12, 2001, Registrant owns 43 lots and 6 homes in the
Yorkshire Knolls townhome project which are not under contract of sale. At the
present rate of sales this represents approximately a 1 to 2 year inventory.
Management is considering the possibility of purchasing additional ground for
residential construction, selling this business activity including the remaining
lots, or phasing out the home building business once the present inventory of
lots is sold.
Rental Income - Apartments and Commercial
Apartments. Rental income from apartments in 2000 was $2,646,000, a
5.6% increase from $2,506,000 in 1999. Total units in 2000 were 294, with an
average occupancy of 97.6% and an average monthly income of $768, compared with
a 94% occupancy rate and average monthly income of $751 for 1999 on total units
of 294. Rental income from apartments in 1999 increased insignificantly from
$2,503,000 in 1998. Total units in 1998 were 294, with an average occupancy of
95% and an average monthly rental of $747. Rental expenses in 2000 were
$1,678,000, an 8.75% increase from $1,543,000 in 1999. Rental expenses in 1999
increased 7.9% compared to 1998 expenses of $1,430,000.
Commercial. Rental income from commercial properties in 2000 was
$21,487,000, an increase of 77.10% from $12,133,000 in 1999. Total commercial
square footage is 1,332,954. Average occupancy for 2000 was 99%, with an average
annual rental of $20.49 per square foot. This compares with a 99% occupancy rate
and average annual rental of $20.37 per square foot for 1999. Commercial rental
income in 1999 increased 6.6% from $11,379,000 in 1998. Average occupancy in
1998 was 93%, with an average annual rental of $20.28 per square foot.
The increase in Rental income and Rental expenses reflects the July
1, 2000 distribution to the Registrant by TCE of 49.567966% of its interest in
the Mall Complex, the assignment to the Registrant of the remaining leasehold
interest by TCE and the assignment of its leasehold interest in the Mall Complex
by SEW. Registrant is the sole general partner of SEW and TCE. Immediately
thereafter, the Company consolidated the leasehold interests in the Mall Complex
into a newly formed single entity, BRW. The Company holds a 54% membership
interest in this entity and is the sole managing member. Accordingly, effective
July 1, 2000, Registrant has reported the results of operations of the Mall
Complex on a consolidated basis with elimination of the Minority Interest. In
preparation for the redevelopment, restructuring and possible refinancing, BRW
intends to assign the leasehold interests of the Mall Complex to what will be
the development entity of the project, Waterside Associates LLC ("WALLC").
Registrant is the sole managing member of WALLC.
The GSA Lease and related construction revenue contributed 28% and
26% of Registrant's total revenues in 2000 and 1999, respectively. The GSA Lease
expires September, 2002. Management believes that considerable renovations will
be required in order to attract new tenants. Substantial sums will be required
to make such
14
renovations, provide tenant improvements, pay leasing fees and carry the space
until re-rented. Although the Registrant has been husbanding cash for these
anticipated needs, the cash available may not be sufficient and Registrant may
be required to borrow funds, if available, seek joint venture partners or sell
the property.
Commercial rental income for each year described above also included
(i) rental inocme from Lakeview Manor nursing home of $608,515 in 2000 and
$596,442 in 1999 and $579,538 in 1998, (ii) utility reimbursements from tenants
and property tax refunds of $174,500 in 2000, $305,604 in 1999 and $106,026 in
1998, (iii) maintenance fees of $867,654 in 2000, $322,535 in 1999 and $282,881
in 1998, and (iv) revenues from convenience store properties of $178,598 in
2000, $180,603 in 1999 and $184,963 in 1998.
In addition to the 1 percent general partnership interest held by
the Company in SEW, 37 percent was held by related parties of the Company.
Therefore, of the $5.2 million assigned for SEW's leasehold interest, $1.2
million was considered to be a transfer of assets between entities under common
control and was recorded against retained earnings and not included in the basis
of the assigned assets.
On October 13, 2000 BRW entered into an agreement with K/FCE
Investment, L.L.C. and K/FCE Management, L.L.C. ("K/FCE") a joint venture
between Washington, D.C. based developer, The Kaempfer Company, Inc. and the
national developer, Forest City Enterprises, Inc. Pursuant to the terms of this
agreement, K/FCE Joint Venture, at its expense, will undertake physical and
economic studies and propose a redevelopment plan for the Mall Complex. It is
expected that this will take approximately one year. In the event that K/FCE can
create a feasible plan, the parties will form a joint venture to redevelop the
property following the expiration, in September 2002, of the Government (GSA)
lease. Commencing with the fourth quarter of 2002 and during the ensuing two to
three year period necessary for the redevelopment and re-tenanting of the Mall
Complex, the Company may experience a significant reduction of revenue.
Other Construction
Other construction consists primarily of construction of tenant
improvements in the space leased to GSA. The revenue from this construction
decreased from $765,000 in 1999 as compared to $466,000 in 2000, a decrease of
39%, primarily because of the decreased needs of GSA as a result of the
relocation of the EPA to other facilities. It is anticipated that revenue from
other construction will decrease in the future.
Hotel
Hotel revenues for 2000 were $7,799,000 compared to $7,386,000 for
1999 and $7,224,000 for 1998. Net income from Hotel operations was $2,338,000
for 2000, compared to $2,211,000 for 1999 and $2,083,000 for 1998.
The Holiday Inn revenues increased 8.5% in 2000 over 1999
($2,612,000 compared to $2,406,000). This was the result of increased average
room rates and occupancy. 1999 Holiday Inn revenues increased 11.9% over 1998
revenues of $2,151,000. Net income from the Holiday Inn operations was $497,000
in 2000, $452,000 in 1999 and $262,000 in 1998. Average occupancy was 65%, 62%
and 59% respectively.
The Colonnade revenues increased 4.2% in 2000 from 1999 ($5,187,000
compared to $4,980,000). This was the result of the increase in the average
daily room rate. 1999 Colonnade revenues decreased 1.4% over 1998 revenues of
$5,073,000
15
as the result of decreased occupancy. Net income from Colonnade operations was
$1,841,000 in 2000, $1,758,000 in 1999 and $1,821,000 in 1998. Average occupancy
was 71%, 71% and 75% respectively.
Management Fees, Affiliates
The decrease in Management Fees, Affiliates resulted from the
consolidation of the results of operations of BRW in the second half of 2000.
Leasing Fees, Affiliates
The decrease in Leasing Fees, Affiliates resulted from the
consolidation of the results of operations of BRW in the second half of 2000.
The 1998, 1999 and 2000 results consist of a 5% real estate leasing
fee earned by Registrant resulting from the GSA lease. These fees are recorded
as earned over the life of the lease, as rent is collected. See "Rentals --
Apartments and Commercial".
Interest, Affiliates
Interest affiliates decreased in 2000 as compared to 1999 due to the
payment by SEW of the balance of the deferred profit purchase note on July 1,
2000.
There was an insignificant change of Interest, affiliates in 1999 as
compared to 1998.
Interest - Other
Interest other increased from $1,561,000 in 1998 to $2,003,000 in
1999 and $2,479,000 in 2000. Interest other consists primarily of earnings on
the short term investments of cash and cash equivalents. The increase in 2000 of
$476,000 over 1999 and the increase in 1999 of $442,000 over 1998 resulted from
increased amounts of funds available for short term investment and higher
interest rates.
Gain on Sale of Realty Interests
The increase reflects the deferred profit recognized as the result
of the payment by SEW of the balance of the deferred purchase price of the 1980
sale of this portion of the Mall Complex.
Gain on Sale of Equity Investments
During 1999 a partnership in which the Registrant holds a 90%
interest sold its 312 unit Orlando, Florida apartment complex. Registrant
received $449,000 of cash distribution as a result of this sale. This
transaction resulted in no gain on the income statement, a reduction of
$2,184,000 in deferred tax liability. This sale reduced Registrant's low income
housing tax credit carry forward by $264,000.
During 1999 a partnership in which the Registrant holds a 64.35%
interest, sold its 160 unit Orlando, Florida apartment complex. Registrant
received $3,102,000 of cash distribution as a result of this sale. This
transaction resulted in a gain $3,006,000 on the income statement.
There was no such transaction in the year 2000.
16
Income from Equity Investments
The components of this Item are as follows:
Year Ended December 31 2000 1999 1998
---------- ---------- ----------
Orlando, Florida Apartments -- (a) $ 69,000
TCE $ 500,000(d) $ 935,000 993,000
Tech High Leasing Company 41,000 43,000 468,000(b)
Other 94,000 19,000 91,000(c)
---------- ---------- ----------
Total $ 635,000 $ 997,000 $1,621,000
(a) These properties were sold in 1999. The operating income for the
portion of 1999 prior to the sale is reflected in the gain on sale of equity
investments.
(b) In 1998 Registrant recognized gain upon the sale of equipment under
lease. There were no such transactions in 1999 or 2000.
(c) In accordance with GAAP, distributions in excess of basis from a
partnership of $31,000 were included in 1998 "Other" income.
(d) The decrease from prior years is the result of the assignment of the
leasehold interest, effective July 1, 2000, by TCE to BRW.
Interest Expense
The increase in interest expense from $450,000 in 1999 to $875,000
in 2000 is the result of the mortgage placed on the Fort Hill office building in
September 2000 and the interest on two notes issued July 1, 2000 to affiliated
partnerships upon the assignment by the partnerships to the Company of leasehold
interests in the Mall Complex. (See Notes Payable).
The reduction in interest expense from $868,000 in 1998 to $450,000
in 1999 is due to the 1998 consolidation of the Sudley North loans.
Provision for Loss on Real Estate
In accordance with GAAP, Registrant writes down the costs of
substantially-completed residential construction projects in excess of the
market value of unsold units. The write-down was $582,000 in 1998. There were no
such write-downs in 2000 or 1999.
Expenses - Other
In 2000 and 1999, Registrant expensed cash advances of $503,000 and
$39,000, respectively, to a partnership operating at a loss. No such advances
were made in 1998. In 1998 $350,000 was expensed for tenant renovations.
Provision for Income Taxes
The Registrant's provision for income taxes was 29.0% for 2000,
37.5% for 1999 and 39.2% for 1998. The reduction in the percentage for 2000
results from the over-accrual of income tax for the prior year.
17
Balance Sheet:
Rental Property and Equipment, Net
$18,000,000 of the increase resulted from the assignment to BRW of
two leasehold interests in the Mall Complex on July 1, 2000. In addition,
Registrant purchased the Fort Hill office building in September 2000 for a price
of $6,992,000. Registrant has an 80% interest in the ownership of this building.
Construction in Process
The decrease in construction in process from $4,244,000 to
$1,988,000 is primarily due to the completion in 1999 of two residential housing
projects and the sale of finished townhomes in the Yorkshire Knolls project.
Investments
Investments consist primarily of municipal bonds. The increase from
$19,626,000 in 1998 to $35,806,000 in 1999 and the increase from $35,806,000 in
1999 to $41,535,000 in 2000 principally resulted from the investment of cash
generated from operations.
Investments In and Advances To Joint Ventures and Partnerships
The increase in 2000 of $3,324,000 as compared to 1999 resulted from
earnings of $635,000 and the receipt of $2,689,000.
Mortgage Loans Payable
The 2000 increase reflects the $5,750,000 mortgage placed on the
Fort Hill office building.
Notes Payable
The 2000 increase in Notes Payable reflects Registrant's issuance of
notes payable to two affiliated partnerships upon the assignment of two
leasehold interests in the Mall Complex.
Accrued Expenses
The 2000 increase of $1,221,000 is primarily due to the assignment
to the Company of leasehold interests in the Mall Complex and the formation of
BRW.
Deposits
The 2000 security deposit increase of $328,000 is primarily due to
the assignment to the Company of leasehold interests in the Mall Complex and the
formation of BRW and the purchase of the Fort Hill office building.
Minority Interest
The 2000 increase of $6,381,000 represents the 46% membership
interest of Trilon in BRW.
18
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Registrant continues to fund its obligations out of current cash
flow. There is no assurance that Registrant will be able to meet all of its
needs out of cash flow and liquid assets or that additional funding will be
available to Registrant if needed.
During the year ended December 31, 2000, Registrant generated cash
flow from operating activities of $16,972,000. Cash flow from operating
activities together with distributions from joint ventures and the proceeds from
Mortgages and Notes Payable were used in investing activities of $24,119,000,
which consisted of investments in municipal bonds and other activities of
$17,276,000, plus proceeds of $2,689,000 related to investment in joint
ventures. The remaining cash flow from operating activities was used in
financing activities for the repayment of mortgages payable in the amount of
$110,000 and the purchase of Treasury Stock in the amount of $164,000.
Additionally, cash flow from financing activities was provided by the proceeds
of mortgages payable in the amount of $5,750,000. Overall, cash flow from
operating, investing and financing resulted in a decrease of $1,671,000 in cash
and cash equivalents and cash deposits held in escrow during the year ended
December 31, 2000.
During the year ended December 31, 1999, Registrant generated cash
flow from operating activities of $16,063,000. Cash flow form operating
activities was used in investing activities of $12,740,000, which consisted of
investments in U.S. Treasury instruments, municipal bonds and other activities
of $17,696,000, less proceeds of $4,956,000 related to investment in joint
ventures. The remaining cash flow from operating activities was used in
financing activities for the repayment of notes payable. Overall, cash flow from
operating, investing and financing resulted in an increase of $2,268,000 in cash
and cash equivalents and cash deposits held in escrow during the year ended
December 31, 2000.
During the year ended December 31, 1998, Registrant generated cash
flow from operating activities of $14,504,000. Cash flow from operating
activities was used in investing activities of $4,412,000, which consisted of
investments in U.S. Treasury instruments and other activities of $6,684,000,
less proceeds of $2,272,000 related to investment in joint ventures. The
remaining cash flow from operating activities was used in financing activities
for the repayment of notes payable. Overall, cash flow from operating, investing
and financing resulted in a decrease of $424,000 in cash and cash equivalents
and cash deposits held in escrow during the year ended December 31, 1998.

Bresler & Reiner, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Bresler &
Reiner, Inc. (a Delaware corporation, the Company) and subsidiaries as of
December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the related consolidated statements of income,
changes in shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 2000. These consolidated financial statements are
the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and schedules based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Bresler & Reiner,
Inc., and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 2000, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
consolidated financial statements taken as a whole. The schedules listed in the
index of financial statements are presented for purposes of complying with the
Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and are not a required part of the
basic consolidated financial statements. This information has been subjected to
the auditing procedures applied in our audits of the basic consolidated
financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material
respects in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a
whole.

Notes to consolidated financial statements
December 31, 2000 and 1999
1. Summary of significant accounting policies:
Organization and principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Bresler & Reiner,
Inc., and its wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries (the "Company"). All
significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
On July 1, 2000, two leasehold interests in a shopping-office center located in
southwest Washington, D.C. ("Mall Complex") were assigned to the Company by Town
Center East Investors ("TCE") and SEW Investors ("SEW"). The Company was the 1
percent general partner in SEW and the 49 percent general partner in TCE. In
connection with the assignment of these leasehold interests, the Company issued
notes of $4.9 million and $3.8 million and paid cash of $2.1 million and $1.6
million to TCE and SEW, respectively. The Company assigned these newly acquired
leasehold interests, in addition to one that the Company previously owned, to a
newly formed single entity, B&R Waterfront Properties, LLC ("BRW"). The Company
is the managing member and holds a 54 percent interest in BRW. Effective July 1,
2000, it has reported the results of operations of BRW on a consolidated basis
with elimination of the minority interest.
In addition to the 1 percent partnership interest held by the Company in SEW, 36
percent was held by related parties of the Company. Therefore, of the $5.4
million assigned for SEW's leasehold interest, $1.2 million was considered to be
a transfer of assets between entities under common control and was recorded
against retained earnings and not included in the basis of the assigned assets.
On October 13, 2000, BRW entered into an agreement with K/FCE Investment, L.L.C.
and K/FCE Management, L.L.C., ("K/FCE") a joint venture between Washington, D.C.
based developer, The Kaempfer Company, Inc. and the national developer, Forest
City Enterprises, Inc. Pursuant to the terms of this agreement, K/FCE Joint
Venture, at its expense, will undertake physical and economic studies and
propose a redevelopment plan for the Mall Complex. It is expected that this will
take approximately one year. In the event that K/FCE can create a feasible plan,
the parties will form a joint venture to redevelop the property following the
expiration, in September 2002, of the Government (GSA) lease. Commencing with
the fourth quarter of 2002 and during the ensuing two to three year period
necessary for the redevelopment and re-tenanting of the Mall Complex, the
Company may experience a significant reduction in revenue.
The Company's activities include residential land development and construction,
rental property ownership and management and hotel ownership and management
primarily in Maryland, Virginia, and the District of Columbia.
Investments in and advances to joint ventures and partnerships
The Company includes its share of the earnings or losses of unconsolidated joint
ventures and partnerships under the equity method of accounting.
Revenue recognition
The Company accounts for revenue from sales of homes and condominiums and sales
of real property in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 66, "Accounting for Sales of Real Estate."
Rental, construction, and management service fees are generally recorded when
earned. Leasing fees are recorded as earned over the life of the lease.
The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated statements.
29
Rental property and equipment
Rental property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is recorded using
the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets.
The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not
be recoverable. Recoverability is measured based on net, undiscounted expected
cash flows. Assets are considered to be impaired if the undiscounted expected
cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the assets. Impairment charges
are recorded based upon the difference between the carrying value of the asset
and the fair value. Real estate held for sale is recorded at the lower of cost
or estimated fair value less cost to sell.
Construction in process
When construction commences, costs are transferred to construction in process
where they are accumulated by project. Other project costs included in
construction in process include property taxes, materials, labor, and allocated
overhead. These costs are charged to costs of homes sold on a pro rata basis as
homes are sold, in accordance with SFAS No. 67, "Accounting for Costs and
Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate Projects." The Company generally
finances its home building operations from internal cash flow. The Company
reviews its accumulated costs to ensure that costs in excess of net realizable
value are charged to operations.
Income taxes
Deferred income taxes result principally from temporary differences related to
the timing of the recognition of real estate sales, lease income, interest
expense, and real estate taxes during development and depreciation for tax and
financial reporting purposes.
Earnings per share
The Company has no dilutive securities; therefore, basic and diluted earnings
per share are identical. Earnings per common share are based upon the
weighted-average number of shares outstanding during each year (2,739,769 shares
in 2000, 2,766,429 shares in 1999, and 2,780,528 shares in 1998).
Cash and cash equivalents
For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly
liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less
to be cash equivalents.
Cash deposits held in escrow
Amounts include deposits held in escrow for tenants, deposits on homes held for
sale, and the net of rental receipts and expenses held by the management
companies.
Investments
As of December 31, 2000 and 1999, all investment securities, consisting of
municipal bonds, FHLMC notes, and FNMA notes, are classified as held-to-maturity
and are therefore reported at amortized cost. The fair value of these
instruments approximates carrying value at year-end. There were no unrealized
holding gains or losses. All the instruments mature within one year. There were
no sales of investment securities during 2000 or 1999.
The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated statements.
30
Management's use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain 1999 and 1998 amounts have been reclassified in order to conform to the
2000 presentation.
2. Rental property and equipment, net:

Buildings and improvements and equipment are depreciated over the useful lives
of the related assets, ranging from 5 to 40 years and 3 to 12 years,
respectively.
3. Land held for sale:
Land held for sale represents land intended to be sold on the open market. The
land is recorded at the lower of cost or estimated fair value less cost to sell.
4. Homes held for sale:
Homes held for sale represent homes that have been substantially completed for
over one year and are held for sale on the open market. These homes are recorded

11. Commitments and contingencies:
Financial commitments
In prior years, the Company pledged its interests in the General Services
Administration's (GSA) lease to the lender as security for Trilon Plaza
Company's (an entity affiliated with the Company) mortgages totaling $1.9
million. The mortgage was paid off in entirety during 1999.
At December 31, 2000, the Company had approximately $1,454,000 of outstanding
letters of credit representing performance guarantees for land improvements in
home building and land development operations.
The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated statements.

Litigation
The Company and other related entities are defendants in suits filed by certain
present and former employees of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), which
occupies office space at the Mall Complex (a portion of which is owned by the
Company). The complaint seeks damages aggregating $40,000,000 under claims of
negligence, breach of warranty of habitability, breach of contract, strict
liability, loss of consortium, and punitive damages. The claims of six
plaintiffs were tried by a jury from October 25 to December 23, 1993, with
verdicts for plaintiffs totaling $948,000. No punitive damages were awarded. The
judgments in favor of four defendants were overturned following trial, reducing
the total award to $232,000. Plaintiffs filed an appeal. The Court of Appeals
reversed the trial judge. The cases of 14 primary plaintiffs and 3 loss of
consortium plaintiffs remain to be tried. Management believes that the claims
are without merit and intends to continue to contest the case vigorously.
In prior years, three "copycat" suits were filed. Two have been dismissed with
prejudice and the third suit is in discovery. Management believes that the claim
in discovery is without merit and intends to continue to contest the case
vigorously, but the ultimate outcome of this matter is uncertain.
Also, in the normal course of business, the Company is involved in other types
of litigation. In the opinion of management, based on its assessment and
consultation with outside counsel, the litigation that is currently pending
against the Company will not have a material impact on the financial position or
future operations of the Company as a whole.
Significant lease
The EPA occupies 1.2 million square feet subject to a GSA lease in the Mall
Complex. This complex is owned by BRW, a limited liability company in which the
Company owns a 54 percent interest. The EPA is the GSA's tenant. The lease with
the GSA was for a five-year period beginning September 1992. The lease has been
extended to September 2002.
In aggregate, approximately 28 percent of the Company's 2000 revenues, including
related leasing and management fees and construction income, are from office
space leased by the GSA. As such, a significant portion of the Company's
operations is dependent on the continuation of the lease, and if the lease is
not renewed or replaced by new tenants at similar terms, the Company's financial
position could be adversely affected.
12. Income taxes:
SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," establishes financial accounting
and reporting standards for the effects of income taxes that result from the
Company's activities during the current and preceding years. It requires an
asset and liability approach in accounting for income taxes. Balance sheet
accruals for income taxes are adjusted to reflect changes in tax rates in the
period such changes are enacted.
The Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return.
The provision for income taxes includes the following components:
2000 1999 1998
------------ ----------- ------------
Provision for income taxes
Current tax $ 5,823,000 $ 9,392,000 $ 5,053,000

=========== =========== ===========
Also, included in deferred charges and other assets in the accompanying
consolidated balance sheets are deferred tax credits earned as a result of the
Company's investments in low-income housing projects. As of December 31, 2000,
the Company had no deferred tax credit and as of December 31, 1999, the
Company's deferred tax credit totaled $584,000. The realizability of this credit
is dependent upon the Company's ability to produce taxable income in the future.
13. Operating leases:
As a lessee
At December 31, 2000, the Company was obligated under a land lease, on which the
Company owns commercial properties, with the District of Columbia Redevelopment
Land Agency, with aggregate annual rental payments of approximately $130,000
plus certain expenses. The lease expires in 2058.
Rent expense for the years ended 2000, 1999, and 1998 was approximately $86,000,
$43,000, and $76,000, respectively.
Although certain leases require the Company to pay real estate taxes, insurance,
and certain other operating expenses of the properties, the basic rental payment
for each lease is used in presenting minimum rentals below.
The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated statements.

15. Pension plan:
The Company and certain of its subsidiaries have a noncontributory defined
benefit pension plan (the Plan) covering substantially all full-time employees.
The Plan provides for benefits to be paid to eligible employees at retirement
based primarily upon years of service with the Company and their compensation
rates for the five years preceding retirement. The Company's funding policy is
consistent with the funding requirements of federal law and regulations. Plan
assets consist principally of mortgage notes receivable and cash equivalents.
The net periodic pension costs for 2000, 1999, and 1998 are computed as follows:
2000 1999 1998
--------- --------- ---------
Service cost-benefits earned during the year $ 250,000 $ 236,000 $ 221,000
Interest cost on projected benefit obligation 248,000 238,000 216,000

16. Disclosure about fair value of financial instruments:
In December 1991, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 107,
"Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments." SFAS No. 107 requires
all entities to disclose the fair value of financial instruments, both assets
and liabilities, recognized and not recognized in the statements of financial
condition for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. If estimating fair
value is not practicable, SFAS No. 107 requires disclosure of descriptive
information pertinent to estimating the fair value of a financial instrument.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of
each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that
value:
. Cash and cash equivalents and cash deposits held in escrow
Cash balances represent demand and short-term deposits with depository
institutions as well as short-term liquid investments. The carrying amount
is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
. Investments
The carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short maturity
of these instruments.
. Receivables
The fair value of mortgage receivables is estimated by discounting the
future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be
made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining
maturities. For short-term mortgage receivables, defined as those maturing
or repricing in 90 days or less, the carrying amount is a reasonable
estimate of fair value. Other receivables represent short-term receivables
for which the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
. Notes payable and mortgage loans payable
The fair value of notes payable is estimated by discounting the future cash
flows based on borrowing rates currently available to the Company for
financing on similar terms for borrowers with similar credit ratings. For
short-term notes payable, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of
fair value.
. Accounts payable, trade
The fair value of accounts payable, trade is the carrying amount payable at
the reporting date.
The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated statements.
39
The estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments are as follows:
December 31, 2000 December 31, 1999
------------------------- -------------------------
Carrying Carrying
amount Fair value amount Fair value
----------- ----------- ----------- -----------
Financial assets:
Cash and cash equivalents $ 5,935,000 $ 5,935,000 $ 7,606,000 $ 7,606,000
Cash deposits held in escrow 6,988,000 6,988,000 6,035,000 6,035,000
Investments 41,535,000 41,535,000 35,806,000 35,806,000
Receivables-
Mortgages and notes, affiliates 2,708,000 2,924,000 3,553,000 5,610,000
Mortgages and notes, others 484,000 495,000 385,000 574,000
Other 4,373,000 4,373,000 3,210,000 3,210,000
Financial liabilities:
Notes payable 8,679,000 9,117,000 -- --
Mortgage loans payable 10,694,000 10,525,000 5,054,000 5,084,000
Accounts payable, trade 715,000 715,000 638,000 638,000
Changes in assumptions or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on
these estimated fair values. Management is concerned that reasonable
comparability between companies may not be likely due to the wide range of
permitted valuation techniques and numerous estimates that must be made given
the absence of active secondary markets for many of the financial instruments.
This lack of uniform valuation methodologies also introduces a greater degree of
subjectivity to these estimated fair values.

18. Segment information:
The Company reports segment information for the following categories: Home and
Other Construction, Commercial Rental, Residential Rentals, and Hotel
Operations. Home and Other Construction consists of residential home building as
well as renovation projects. This segment represents 15, 19, and 19 percent of
the Company's total consolidated revenue in years 2000, 1999, and 1998,
respectively. Commercial Rental focuses on providing office and retail space for
various types of
The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated statements.
40
tenants, ranging from retail to governmental agencies. This segment provides 41,
31, and 25 percent of the Company's total consolidated revenue in years 2000,
1999, and 1998, respectively. Residential Rental focuses on providing housing
for low-income families throughout the Washington, D.C., Metropolitan area. This
segment represents 6 percent of the Company's total consolidated revenue in
years 2000 and 1999, and 7 percent of the company's total consolidated revenue
in the year 1998. Hotel Operations focuses on the ownership of two hotel
properties. This segment provides 18, 19, and 21 percent of the Company's total
consolidated revenue in years 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively. Interest and
other revenue is composed of various activities and represents the remaining 20,
25, and 28 percent of the Company's total consolidated revenue in years 2000,
1999, and 1998, respectively. The Company is not involved in any operations in
countries other than the United States.
The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the
summary of significant accounting policies. The Company evaluates performance
based upon gross operating income from the combined properties in each segment.
The Company's reportable segments are a consolidation of related subsidiaries
that offer different products. They are managed separately as each segment
requires different operating, pricing, and leasing strategies. All the
properties have been acquired separately and are incorporated into the
applicable segment.
