     Included in Mortgage  Notes  Payable is the Yasawa Loan  ($6,670,000  as of
     June 30, 1998); included in Other Loans is the Scafholding Loan ($1,730,000
     as of June 30, 1998).  The  Scafholding  Loan is secured by a first lien on
     the Company's  receivables.  The Yasawa Loan is secured by a second lien on
     the Company's  receivables and a mortgage on all of the Company's property.
     As of June 30, 1998,  loans  outstanding to Yasawa and Scafholding  totaled
     $8,400,000.  The terms of repayment of this debt have been  restructured to
     provided  for a monthly  payment of  principal  in the  amount of  $100,000
     payable monthly in cash or with contracts receivable at 100% of face value,
     plus interest payable monthly on the declining  balance of the rate of 9.6%
     per annum in cash or with contracts receivable at 65% of face value.

(d)            COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     Homesite  sales  contracts  provide  for the return of all  monies  paid in
     (including  paid-in  interest)  should  the  Company  be unable to meet its
     contractual  obligations after the use of reasonable diligence. If a refund
     is made, the Company will recover the related  homesite and any improvement
     thereto.

     As a result of the delays in completing  the land  improvements  to certain
     property sold in certain of its Central and North Florida communities,  the
     Company  fell  behind  in  meeting  its  contractual   obligations  to  its
     customers. In connection with these delays, the Company, in February, 1980,
     entered into a Consent Order with the Division which provided a program for
     notifying  affected  customers.  The Consent Order,  which was restated and
     amended,  provided  a  program  for  notifying  affected  customers  of the
     anticipated  delays in the completion of  improvements  (or, in the case of
     purchasers of  unbuildable  lots in certain  areas of the  Company's  Sunny
     Hills  community,  the transfer of  development  obligations to core growth
     areas of the community);  various options which may be selected by affected
     purchasers; a schedule for completing certain improvements;  and a deferral
     of the obligation to install water mains until  requested by the purchaser.
     Under an  agreement  with  Topeka,  Topeka's  utility  companies  agreed to
     furnish  utility   service  to  the  future   residents  of  the  Company's
     communities on substantially  the same basis as such services were provided
     by the Company.  The Consent  Order also required the  establishment  of an
     improvement  escrow  account as assurance for completing  such  improvement
     obligations.

     In June,  1992,  the Company  entered into the 1992 Consent  Order with the
     Division,  which  replaced and superseded  the original  Consent Order,  as
     amended  and  restated.   Among  other  things,   the  1992  Consent  Order
     consolidated  the  Company's  development  obligations  and  provided for a
     reduction  in its  required  monthly  escrow  obligation  to $175,000  from
     September,  1992 through December,  1993. Beginning January, 1994 and until
     development is completed or the 1992 Consent Order is amended,  the Company
     was required to deposit $430,000 per month into the escrow account. As part
     of the assurance  program under the 1992 Consent Order, the Company and its
     lenders had granted the Division a lien on certain  receivables  and future
     receivables. The Company defaulted on its obligation to escrow $430,000 per
     month for the period of January,  1994 through November 1997. In accordance
     with the 1992  Consent  Order,  collections  on Division  receivables  were
     escrowed for the benefit of purchasers from March 1, 1994 through April 30,
     1994. In May, 1994 the Company  implemented a program to have customers who
     had  contracted to purchase  property  which is  undeveloped  exchange such
     property for developed property. As of June 30, 1998,  approximately 85% of
     such  customers  have  opted  to  exchange  or have  had  their  situations
     otherwise resolved.

     On December 30, 1997, the Division approved the formation of a Lot Exchange
     Trust into which the Company  conveyed  sufficient  exchange  inventory  to
     provide  exchanges to customers with undeveloped  lots.  Concurrently,  the
     Division released its lien on the Company's contracts receivable, satisfied
     its mortgage on the  Company's  property  and approved a settlement  of all
     remaining  issues under the 1992 Deltona  Consent  Order.  The 1992 Deltona
     Consent Order was terminated on April 13, 1998.

     As of June 30, 1998, the Company had estimated  development  obligations of
     approximately  $25,000 on sold property,  an estimated liability to provide
     title  insurance  and deeding  costing  $462,000 and an  estimated  cost of
     street  maintenance,  prior  to  assumption  of such  obligations  by local
     governments,  of $349,000,  all of which are included in deferred  revenue.
     The total cost to complete  improvements  at June 30, 1998,  including  the
     previously  mentioned  obligations,   was  estimated  to  be  approximately
     $836,000. The Company's development obligation was substantially reduced in
     1997 by the  consummation of the Agreement  approved by the stockholders on
     November 4, 1997. Approximately $7,400,000 of the development obligation at
     St.  Augustine  Shores was assumed by Swan. In addition,  the creation of a
     Lot Exchange  Trust reduced the  development  obligation at Marion Oaks and
     Sunny Hills by approximately $5,800,000.

     The  Company's  continuing  liquidity  problems  have  precluded the timely
     payment of the full amount of certain real estate  taxes.  Delinquent  real
     estate taxes  aggregated  approximately  $1,707,000 as of June 30, 1998. On
     properties where customers have contractually assumed the obligation to pay
     into a tax escrow  maintained  by the  Company,  the  Company  has and will
     continue to pay  delinquent  real estate taxes as monies are collected from
     customers. Of the $1,707,000 in delinquent real estate taxes, approximately
     $30,000  relates  to sold  lots on  which  the  customer  has  assumed  the
     obligation to pay but has not done so.

     In addition to the matters  discussed  above and in Note 9 to the Company's
     Consolidated  Financial  Statements included in the Company's Annual Report
     on Form 10-K for the year ended  December 31, 1997,  the Company is a party
     to other  litigation  relating  to the  conduct  of its  business  which is
     routine in nature  and, in the  opinion of the  management,  should have no
     material effect upon the Company's operation.

(e)  CAPITALIZED INTEREST

     The  Company   capitalizes   interest  cost  incurred  during  a  project's
     construction  period.  Of the total  interest cost incurred of $420,000 and
     $918,000,  none was  capitalized for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and
     June 30, 1997, respectively.

(f)  EARNINGS OR LOSS PER SHARE

     Basic earnings (loss) per common and common  equivalent share were computed
     by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted  average  number of shares of
     Common Stock and common stock equivalents  outstanding  during each period.
     The  earnings  (loss) and the average  number of shares of Common Stock and
     common stock  equivalents used to calculate  earnings per share for the six
     months ended June 30, 1998 and June 30, 1997 were $(925,000) and $(603,000)
     and 13,544,277 and 6,734,939, respectively.


ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
        CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

On November 4, 1997,  at the 1997 Annual  Meeting,  the  Company's  stockholders
approved  an   Agreement   between  the  Company  and  its  lenders  that  would
substantially reduce the Company's  outstanding debt obligation of $25.3 million
(the "Agreement").  The Agreement,  consummated effective December 30, 1997 upon
approval of the Division of Florida Land Sales,  Condominiums  and Mobile Homes,
resulted in a reduction in the Company's outstanding debt obligation through the
conveyance of all remaining land inventory and  obligations in the Company's St.
Augustine  Shores  Subdivision  and the  issuance of  approximately  6.8 million
shares of Common Stock at $1.00 per share (par value). Additionally, the lenders
purchased  $7.5  million in  contracts  receivable  from the Company to generate
working capital and further reduce the debt obligation. Specifically:

               1. Selex sold its  remaining  debt  ($2,664,736),  including  the
Empire note,  to Yasawa and the Company owes no further  duty or  obligation  to
Selex,  which  provided the Company a release.  The debt purchased by Yasawa was
satisfied  through Yasawa's  purchase of 2,664,736 shares of Common Stock issued
by the Company at a per share conversion  price of One Dollar ($1.00),  which is
equal to par value.

               2. Swan had previously  acquired $5,529,501 of the Company's debt
from Selex.  This $5,529,501 was satisfied  through the Company's  conveyance of
all of the  Company's  remaining  land  inventory  and  obligations  in its  St.
Augustine  Shores  Subdivision to Swan . The price,  based upon appraised value,
was  adjusted to take into  account  the  development  obligations  on sold lots
assumed by Swan.

               3. Scafholding, purchased approximately $7.5 million in contracts
receivable  from the Company at  seventy-five  percent  (75%) of face value with
recourse for non-performing  contracts.  This sale generated  approximately $5.6
million,  $1,982,457 of which was used to reduce outstanding debt to Yasawa. The
balance  (of  which  $1  million  is in  the  form  of a  promissory  note  from
Scafholding  to the Company) will be used by the Company to pay a portion of the
delinquent real estate taxes, to implement its marketing  programs,  to initiate
development   of  TimberWalk   and  to  meet  the  Company's   working   capital
requirements.

               4. A  $4,144,602  portion  of the  Company's  debt to Yasawa  was
satisfied  through Yasawa's  purchase of 4,144,602 shares of Common Stock issued
by the Company at a per share conversion  price of One Dollar ($1.00),  which is
equal to par value.

As of  June  30,  1998,  the  Company's  outstanding  debt  to  Scafholding  was
$1,730,000,  secured by a first lien on the Company's receivables; the Company's
outstanding  debt to  Yasawa  was  $6,670,000  secured  by a second  lien on the
Company's  receivables  and a mortgage on all of the Company's  property.  As of
June 30, 1998, loans outstanding to Yasawa and Scafholding  totaled  $8,400,000.
The  terms of  repayment  of this debt have been  restructured  to  provide  for
monthly  payments of principal in the amount of $100,000 payable monthly in cash
or with  contracts  receivable  at 100% of face  value,  plus  interest  payable
monthly on the  declining  balance at the rate of 9.6% per annum in cash or with
contracts receivable at 65% of face value.

Prior to November 4, 1997 and independent of the Agreement outlined above, Selex
and Yasawa  agreed to forgive  $2,050,818  in accrued  interest on the Company's
debt to them.

Through  Yasawa's  acquisition  of the  6,809,338  shares of Common Stock of the
Company referenced above, Mr. Antony Gram's beneficial  ownership increased from
3,109,703 shares to 9,919,041 shares (73.23% of the outstanding shares of Common
Stock of the Company as of June 30, 1998).

As a consequence of its liquidity position,  the Company has not paid delinquent
real estate taxes which aggregate approximately  $1,707,000 as of June 30, 1998.
Non-payment  of these  delinquent  taxes  may  adversely  affect  the  financial
condition of the Company.

On March 10, 1998, the Company  entered into a related party agreement with Swan
Development Corporation ("Swan") whereby Swan acquired approximately $375,000 in
property in Marion Oaks in exchange for their  obligation to construct an office
building to house the Company's  corporate  office and TimberWalk  sales center.
The sales price will provide rent  credits for  approximately  four and one-half
years to the Company.

As part of the Agreement,  if the Company elects to do so, Scafholding agreed to
purchase contracts  receivable at 65% of face value, with recourse,  to meet the
Company's ongoing capital requirements.  On June 30, 1998, Scafholding purchased
approximately  $200,000  in  contracts  receivable  from the Company to generate
working capital.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------

For the six months ended June 30, 1998 and June 30, 1997.

Revenues
--------

Total  revenues  were  $3,325,000  for the first six months of 1998  compared to
$4,363,000 for the comparable 1997 period.

Gross  land  sales  were  $2,170,000  for the  first six  months of 1998  versus
$3,165,000  for the first six months of 1997.  Net land sales  (gross land sales
less estimated uncollectible  installment sales and contract valuation discount)
decreased to $1,519,000 for the first six months of 1998 from $2,091,000 for the
first six months of 1997.  For the three months  ended June 30,  1998,  net land
sales  decreased to $875,000 from $962,000 for the comparable  1997 period.  The
decrease in sales  reflects  lower sales from the Company's  independent  dealer
network.

There were no bulk land sales for the first six months of 1998 or 1997. In light
of the Company's diminished bulk land sales inventory it is anticipated that the
Company will produce a negligible  volume of bulk land sales. See "Liquidity and
Capital Resources -- Mortgages and Similar Debt".

Housing  revenues  were $661,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared
to  $562,000  for the same  period in 1997.  Revenues  are not  recognized  from
housing sales until the completion of construction and passage of title. Housing
revenues  increased as of result of higher sales from the Company's  independent
dealer  network.  The backlog of houses under  construction  was  $3,815,000 and
$1,502,000  as of June 30,  1998 and June 30,  1997,  respectively.  The Company
recently opened TimberWalk, a new housing community in Ocala, Florida.

  *  New retail land sales contracts  entered into,  including  deposit sales on
     which the Company has  received  less than 20% of the sales  price,  net of
     cancellations,  for the six months  ended June 30,  1998 and June 30,  1997
     were $2,081,000 and $2,856,000, respectively, and $1,312,000 and $1,168,000
     for the second quarters of 1998 and 1997,  respectively.  The Company had a
     backlog of  approximately  $875,000  in  unrecognized  sales as of June 30,
     1998.  Such  contracts  are not  included  in retail  land sales  until the
     applicable  rescission  period has expired  and the  Company  has  received
     payments totaling 20% of the contract sales price.
</FN>
</TABLE>

Improvement  revenues  result from  recognition of revenues  deferred from prior
period sales.  Recognition occurs as development work proceeds on the previously
sold  property  or  customers  are  exchanged  to a developed  lot.  Improvement
revenues  totaled  $684,000 for the first six months of 1998  ($419,000  for the
second  quarter of 1998),  as compared  to $761,000  for the first six months of
1997 ($577,000 for the second quarter 1997).

Interest  income was  $420,000  for the first six months of 1998 as  compared to
$679,000  for the first six  months of 1997.  The  decrease  is the  result of a
decrease  in the  Company's  contracts  receivable,  resulting  from the sale of
$7,500,000 in contracts receivable for the fourth quarter 1997.

Other  revenues  were  $146,000  for the  first six  months of 1998 ($65,000 for
the second quarter of 1998), as compared to $270,000 for the first six months of
1997 ($162,000 for the second quarter of 1997). Other revenues for the first six
months of 1997 included $154,000 of revenue from timbering  operations ($104,000
for the  second  quarter  of  1997).  Other  revenues  are  currently  generated
principally  by  the  Company's  title  insurance  and  real  estate   brokerage
subsidiaries.

Costs and Expenses
------------------

Costs and expenses were $4,250,000 for the first six months of 1998  ($2,250,000
for the second  quarter of 1998),  as compared to  $4,966,000  for the first six
months of 1997  ($2,465,000 for the second quarter of 1997).  Cost of sales were
$1,210,000  for the first six months of 1998 ($713,000 for the second quarter of
1998),  as compared to $1,265,000 for the first six months of 1997 ($636,000 for
the second quarter of 1997).

Commissions,  advertising and other selling expenses totaled  $1,270,000 for the
six months ended June 30, 1998 compared to  $1,250,000  for the six months ended
June 30, 1997  ($661,000 for the second  quarter of 1998 as compared to $601,000
for the second quarter of 1997).  Advertising and promotional expenses increased
to $556,000 for the six month period ended June 30, 1998 versus $349,000 for the
same six month  period  in 1997  ($362,000  for the  second  quarter  of 1998 as
compared  to  $152,000  for the second  quarter of 1997) as a result of start up
costs  incurred  in  preparation  of the  Company's  new  housing  community  in
TimberWalk.

General and  administrative  expenses  were $836,000 for the first six months of
1998 ($412,000 for the second quarter of 1998),  as compared to $891,000 for the
first six months of 1997 ($429,000 for the second quarter of 1997).  General and
administrative expenses have remained constant from period to period.

Real  estate  tax  expenses  were  $514,000  for the  first  six  months of 1998
($257,000 for the second quarter of 1998), as compared to $642,000 for the first
six months of 1997 ($337,000 for the second  quarter of 1997).  Included in real
estate tax expense is interest  and  administrative  fees on  delinquent  taxes,
which accrue interest at 18% per annum.

Interest expense was $420,000 for the first six months of 1998 ($207,000 for the
second  quarter of 1998),  as compared  to $918,000  for the first six months of
1997 ($461,000 for the second quarter of 1997). The decrease in interest expense
is the result of a lower  outstanding  debt  resulting  from the debt  reduction
accomplished in the fourth quarter of 1997.

Net Income (Loss)
-----------------

The  Company  reported a net loss of  $925,000  for the first six months of 1998
($304,000 for the second quarter of 1998), as compared to $603,000 for the first
six months of 1997 ($174,000 for the second quarter of 1997).

Regulatory Developments which may affect Future Operations
----------------------------------------------------------

In Florida,  as in many growth areas,  local governments have sought to limit or
control  population  growth in their  communities  through  restrictive  zoning,
density reduction,  the imposition of impact fees and more stringent development
requirements.  Although the Company has taken such factors into consideration in
its master plans,  the  increased  regulation  has  lengthened  the  development
process and added to development costs.

On a statewide  level,  the Florida  Legislature  adopted  and  implemented  the
Florida  Growth  Management  Act of 1985 (the  "Act")  to aid local  governments
efforts to  discourage  uncontrolled  growth in Florida.  The Act  precludes the
issuance  of  development  orders  or  permits  if  public  facilities  such  as
transportation,  water and sewer services will not be available  concurrent with
development.  Development  orders  have been  issued for,  and  development  has
commenced  in,  the  Company's  existing  communities  (with  development  being
virtually completed in certain of these communities). Thus, such communities are
less  likely to be affected by the new growth  management  policies  than future
communities.  Any future  communities  developed by the Company will be strongly
impacted by new growth management  policies.  Since the Act and its implications
are consistently being re-examined by the State, together with local governments
and various state and local  governmental  agencies,  the Company cannot further
predict  the  timing  or the  effect  of new  growth  management  policies,  but
anticipates  that such  policies  may  increase  the  Company's  permitting  and
development costs.

In addition to Florida,  other  jurisdictions in which the Company's  properties
are  offered  for  sale  have   recently   strengthened,   or  are   considering
strengthening,  their regulation of subdividers and subdivided lands in order to
provide  further  assurances  to the  public,  particularly  given  the  adverse
publicity  surrounding  the  industry  which  existed in 1990.  The  Company has
attempted  to take  appropriate  steps to  modify  its  marketing  programs  and
registration  applications  in the face of such  increased  regulation,  but has
incurred  additional  costs  and  delays  in the  marketing  of  certain  of its
properties  in certain  states and  countries.  For  example,  the  Company  has
complied with  regulations of certain states which require that the Company sell
its  properties  to residents  of those  states  pursuant to a deed and mortgage
transaction,  regardless of the amount of the down payment.  The Company intends
to continue to monitor any  changes in  statutes or  regulations  affecting,  or
anticipated  to  affect,  the sale of its  properties  and  intends  to take all
necessary and  reasonable  action to assure that its properties and its proposed
marketing programs are in compliance with such regulations,  but there can be no
assurance  that the Company  will be able to timely  comply with all  regulatory
changes in all  jurisdictions  in which the Company's  properties  are presently
offered for sale to the public.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
-------------------------------

Mortgages and Similar Debt
--------------------------

Indebtedness   under  a  mortgage  and  loan  agreements  is  collateralized  by
substantially  all  of  the  Company's   assets,   including  stock  of  certain
wholly-owned subsidiaries.

The loan modifications  consummated on December 31, 1997,  satisfied all Company
obligations to Selex and the  outstanding  loans to Scafholding  and Yasawa were
restructured. The following table presents information with respect to mortgages
and similar debt (in thousands):

       CONTRACTS AND MORTGAGES RECEIVABLE SALES

In June, 1992 and February,  1990, the Company  completed sales of contracts and
mortgages receivable totaling $13,500,000 and $17,000,000,  respectively,  which
generated approximately $8,000,000 and $13,900,000 respectively, in net proceeds
to the  Company.  The  anticipated  costs of the  June,  1992  transaction  were
included in the  extraordinary  loss from debt  restructuring for 1991 since the
restructuring was dependent on the sale. The Company recorded a loss of $600,000
on the February,  1990 sale. In conjunction with these sales the Company granted
the purchaser a security interest in certain additional  contracts receivable of
approximately  $2,700,000 and conveyed all of its rights,  title and interest in
the property  underlying  such contracts to a collateral  trustee.  In addition,
these  transactions,  among other  things  require  that the Company  replace or
repurchase any receivable  that becomes 90 days  delinquent  upon the request of
the  purchaser.  Such  requirement  can be satisfied from contracts in which the
purchaser  holds a security  interest  (approximately  $2,505,000 as of June 30,
1998). The purchaser of these receivables  experienced  financial difficulty and
filed in 1994 for protection under Chapter 11 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code. In
November 1995, the purchaser of these  receivables  sold the portfolio to Finova
Capital  Corporation.  The Company is unable to determine  what effect this will
have, if any, on future  cancellations,  since it is unable to determine how the
bankruptcy or the  subsequent  sale of the portfolio  will impact  servicing and
collection procedures and the customers'  determination to continue to pay under
those  contracts.  The Company has fully reserved for the amount of the holdback
account and the estimated future cancellations based on the Company's historical
experience for receivables the Company services. However, due to the uncertainty
noted  above,  the  Company  does not feel there is  sufficient  information  to
estimate  future  cancellations  and is unable to determine  the adequacy of its
reserves to replace or repurchase  receivables that become delinquent.  In 1996,
the Company replaced  $293,000 in delinquent  receivables.  During the first six
months of 1998,  the Company did not replace any delinquent  receivables.  As of
June  30,  1998  and  1997,   $1,298,000  and  $1,271,000  in  receivables  were
delinquent, respectively.

In December, 1992, as described above, the Company sold $10,800,000 of contracts
and mortgages  receivable to an affiliate of Yasawa at face value,  applying the
proceeds therefrom to reduce the Bank Loan acquired by Yasawa.

In March,  1993, the Company  transferred  $1,600,000 in contracts and mortgages
receivable generating approximately $1,059,000 in proceeds to the Company, which
was used for  working  capital  and the  creation  of a holdback  account in the
amount of $150,000.  As of June 30, 1998, the balance of the holdback account as
approximately $122,000.

In December 1997,  Scafholding purchased  approximately  $7,500,000 in contracts
receivable  from the Company at  seventy-five  percent  (75%) of face value with
recourse for non-performing  contracts.  This sale generated  approximately $5.6
million,  $1,982,457 of which was used to reduce outstanding debt to Yasawa. The
balance  (of  which  $1  million  is in  the  form  of a  promissory  note  from
Scafholding to the Company expected to be satisfied by mid-1998) was used by the
Company to pay a portion of the delinquent  real estate taxes,  to implement its
marketing  programs,  to  initiate  development  of  TimberWalk  and to meet the
Company's working capital requirements.

On  June  30,  1998,  the  Company  sold  approximately  $200,000  in  contracts
receivable to Scafholding to general additional working capital.  In the future,
if the Company elects to do so, Yasawa and  Scafholding  have agreed to purchase
contracts receivable at 65% of face value, with recourse,  to meet the Company's
ongoing capital requirements.

The  Company  was  the  guarantor  of  approximately  $12,795,000  of  contracts
receivable  sold  or  transferred  as of June  30,  1998,  for the  transactions
described  above and had $122,000 on deposit with  purchasers of the receivables
as  security to assure  collectibility  as of such date.  A  provision  has been
established for the Company's  obligation under the recourse provisions of which
$3,120,000 remains at June 30, 1998. The Company has been in compliance with all
receivable transactions since the consummation of receivable sales.

       OTHER OBLIGATIONS

As of  June 30, 1998,  the  Company  had  estimated  development  obligations of
approximately  $25,000 on sold property, an estimated liability to provide title
insurance  and  deeding  costing  $462,000  and  an  estimated  cost  of  street
maintenance,  prior to assumption of such obligations by local  governments,  of
$349,000,  all of which are  included  in  deferred  revenue.  The total cost to
complete  improvements  at June  30,  1998  was  estimated  to be  approximately
$836,000. The Company's development obligation was substantially reduced in 1997
by the consummation of the Agreement approved by the stockholders on

                                       12

<PAGE>

November 4, 1997.  Approximately  $7,400,000 of  the  development  obligation at
St.  Augustine  Shores was assumed by Swan.  In addition,  the creation of a Lot
Exchange Trust reduced the development obligation at Marion Oaks and Sunny Hills
by approximately $ 5,800,000.

The Company's continuing liquidity problems have precluded the timely payment of
the  full  amount  of its  real  estate  taxes.  Delinquent  real  estate  taxes
aggregated  approximately  $1,707,000 as of June 30, 1998.  On properties  where
customers  have  contractually  assumed the  obligation to pay into a tax escrow
maintained by the Company,  the Company has and will continue to pay  delinquent
real estate taxes as monies are collected from  customers.  Of the $1,707,000 in
delinquent  real estate  taxes,  approximately  $30,000  relates to sold lots on
which the customer has assumed the obligation to pay but has not done so.

        LIQUIDITY

Retail land sales have  traditionally  produced  negative  cash flow through the
point of sale as a result of the regulatory  requirement to sell fully developed
lots and the additional  requirement to pay marketing and selling expenses prior
to or shortly  after the point of sale. In an effort to offset the negative cash
effects of installment  land sales,  the Company is now attempting to direct its
marketing  efforts  to  selling  homes and lots  together.  The  success of this
direction will be dependent upon the Company's dealer recruiting program and the
availability of funds for an advertising and promotion program.

In December 1997, the Company  announced the start of construction on its newest
housing  development:  TimberWalk.  TimberWalk features a model home center with
models built by three premier central Florida home builders. At TimberWalk, home
buyers  enjoy the  benefits of  Deltona's  newest  design  concept,  "Everything
Included",  with  features  that are often  considered  extra cost  upgrades and
options by other home  builders but are included in  TimberWalk's  basic prices.
Models  range  from one to two  story  homes  with two,  three or four  bedrooms
ranging  in size from 1,200  square  feet to over  2,200  square  feet of living
space.

Due to its  liquidity  problems  over the last five years,  the Company has been
forced to delay payment of certain real estate taxes.  The Company's  ability to
continue retail land sales and re-establish  itself in the housing business will
be substantially dependent on its ability to sell or otherwise finance contracts
receivable and/or secure other financing sources to meet its cash  requirements.
Since  1992,  the  Company has been  largely  dependent  upon Yasawa and related
parties for financing of its operations.  Although  Yasawa and Scafholding  have
committed to provide the Company with financing of its contracts  receivables at
the rate of 65% of face value, with recourse, there can be no guarantee that the
Company will be able to generate  sufficient  receivables  to meet its cash flow
requirements.

        YEAR 2000

The  Company  utilizes  a number of  software  systems in  conjunction  with its
community  development,  contract processing and contract servicing  operations.
The Company has and will  continue to make certain  investments  in its software
systems  and  applications  to ensure the  Company is Year 2000  compliant.  The
financial  impact  of  becoming  Year  2000  compliant  has not  been and is not
expected  to be  material  to the  Company's  financial  position  or results of
operations in a given year.
