INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of
Wells Core Office Income REIT, Inc.
Atlanta, Georgia

We have audited the accompanying statement of revenues over certain operating expenses of the Westway II Building (the “Building”) for the year ended December 31, 2010. This statement is the responsibility of the Building's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this statement based on our audit.

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

The accompanying statement of revenues over certain operating expenses was prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, as described in Note 2, and is not intended to be a complete presentation of the Building's revenues and expenses.

In our opinion, the statement of revenues over certain operating expenses referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the revenues over certain operating expenses described in Note 2 of the Building for the year ended December 31, 2010 in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Westway II Building
Notes to Statements of Revenues Over Certain Operating Expenses
For the year ended December 31, 2010 (audited)
and the six months ended June 30, 2011 (unaudited)


1. Description of Real Estate Property Acquired

On September 28, 2011, Wells Core Office Income REIT, Inc. (the “Registrant”), through a wholly-owned subsidiary, acquired a fee-simple interest in a ten-story office building (the "Westway II Building"). The Westway II Building contains approximately 242,000 rentable square feet and is located on approximately 4.74 acres of land in Houston, Texas. The Westway II Building was purchased from Dienna Nelson Augustine Company. Total consideration for the acquisition was approximately $70.3 million, exclusive of closing costs and net of $4.2 million of adjustments. The Registrant is a Maryland corporation that engages in the acquisition and ownership of commercial real estate properties throughout the United States. The Registrant was incorporated on July 3, 2007 and has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust for federal income tax purposes.

2. Basis of Accounting

The accompanying statements of revenues over certain operating expenses is presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and in accordance with the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for real estate properties acquired. Accordingly, the statements exclude certain historical expenses that are not comparable to the proposed future operations of the property such as certain ancillary income, amortization, depreciation, interest, and corporate expenses. Therefore, the statements will not be comparable to the statements of operations of the Westway II Building after its acquisition by the Registrant.

3. Significant Accounting Policies    

Revenues

Rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related leases. The excess of rental income recognized over the amounts due pursuant to the lease terms is recorded as straight-line rent receivable. The adjustment to straight-line rent receivable increased rental revenue by approximately $39,544 for the year ended December 31, 2010 and approximately $65,880 for the six months ended June 30, 2011.

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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

4. Description of Leasing Arrangements

The Westway II Building is currently 100% leased to four tenants and anchored by GE Oil & Gas, Inc. (“GE Oil & Gas”), a subsidiary of GE Energy. The Westway II Building is the world headquarters of GE Oil & Gas, which leases approximately 76% of the building. GE Oil & Gas contributed 79% of the rental income for the year ended December 31, 2010 and 77% of the rental income for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Vallourec & Mannesmann Tubes Corporation ("Vallourec") leases approximately 18% of the building and contributed 21% of the rental income for the year ended December 31, 2010 and 21% of the rental income for the six months ended June 30, 2011.

5. Future Minimum Rental Commitments

At December 31, 2010, future minimum rental commitments for the years ended December 31 are as follows:

2011

3,837,389

2012
4,565,932

2013

Thereafter

$
47,001,808


Subsequent to December 31, 2010, GE Oil & Gas and Vallourec will contribute approximately 77% and 17%, respectively, of the future minimum rental income from the leases in place at that date.

6. Interim Unaudited Financial Information

The statement of revenues over certain operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2011 is unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal, recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair presentation of the financial statement for the interim period have been included. The results of the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for a full fiscal year.
