                      NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF
           THE PRUDENTIAL VARIABLE CONTRACT REAL PROPERTY PARTNERSHIP
                                  June 30, 2000
                                   (Unaudited)

NOTE 1:  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying unaudited financial statements included herein have been
prepared in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial
information. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2000 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended
December 31, 2000. For further information, refer to the financial statements
and notes thereto included in each Partner's December 31, 1999 Annual Report on
Form 10K.


NOTE 2:  COMMITMENT FROM PARTNER

In 1986, Prudential committed to fund up to $100 million to enable the
Partnership to acquire real estate investments. Contributions to the Partnership
under this commitment were utilized for property acquisitions, and returned to
Prudential on an ongoing basis from the contract owners' net contributions and
other available cash. The amount of the commitment is reduced by $10 million for
every $100 million in current value net assets of the Partnership. Thus, with
$209 million in net assets, the commitment has been automatically reduced to $80
million. As of June 30, 2000, Prudential's equity interest in the Partnership,
on a cost basis, under this commitment was $44 million. Prudential does not
intend to make contributions during the 2000 fiscal year and will begin to phase
out this commitment over the next several years.


NOTE 3:  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Pursuant to an investment management agreement, Prudential charges the
Partnership a daily investment management fee at an annual rate of 1.25% of the
average daily gross asset valuation of the Partnership. For the six months ended
June 30, 2000 and 1999 management fees incurred by the Partnership were
$1,348,173 and $1,345,663 respectively.

The Partnership also reimburses Prudential for certain administrative services
rendered by Prudential. The amounts incurred for the six months ended June 30,
2000 and 1999 were $58,315 and $58,148 respectively, and are classified as
administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.


NOTE 4:  INVESTMENT IN REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST (REIT)

On March 30, 1999, the Partnership exchanged 506,894 shares of Meridian REIT for
557,583 shares of ProLogis REIT, fair value of $10,942,566, and receivable of
$1,013,796 (or total fair value of $11,956,362) as a result of ProLogis'
acquisition of Meridian. Management continued applying a 3% discount to the
market value of the ProLogis REIT shares through June 29, 1999 because of the
restriction which limits the number of shares that can be publicly traded during
any six month period to 30% of the total shares originally acquired. The
application of the 3% discount was discontinued on June 30, 1999 because this
restriction no longer applied.

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

All of the assets of the Real Property Account (the "Account") are invested in
the Prudential Variable Contract Real Property Partnership (the "Partnership").
Correspondingly, the liquidity, capital resources and results of operations for
the Real Property Account are contingent upon the Partnership. Therefore, all of
management's discussion of these items is at the Partnership level. The Partners
in the Partnership are The Prudential Insurance Company of America, Pruco Life
Insurance Company, and Pruco Life Insurance Company of New Jersey (collectively,
the "Partners").

The following analysis of the liquidity and capital resources and results of
operations of the Partnership should be read in conjunction with the Financial
Statements and the related Notes to the Financial Statements included elsewhere
herein.

(a) LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of June 30, 2000, the Partnership's liquid assets consisting of cash, cash
equivalents and marketable securities were $20.7 million, an increase of $4.0
million from December 31, 1999. This increase was primarily due to the sale of
REIT shares and operations of the Partnership's properties which were offset by
a distribution to a Partner of $8.0 million on June 28, 2000. Sources of
liquidity include net cash flow from property operations, interest from
short-term investments, and dividends from REIT shares.

The Partnership's investment policy allows up to 30% investment in cash and
short-term obligations, although the Partnership generally holds approximately
10% of its assets in cash or liquid instruments. At June 30, 2000, 9% of the
Partnership's assets consisted of cash and cash equivalents. There were no
marketable securities held at June 30, 2000.

In 1986, Prudential committed to fund up to $100 million to enable the
Partnership to acquire real estate investments. Contributions to the Partnership
under this commitment have been utilized for property acquisitions, and returned
to Prudential on an ongoing basis from contract owners' net contributions and
other available cash. The amount of the commitment is reduced by $10 million for
every $100 million in current value net assets of the Partnership. Thus, with
$209 million in net assets, the commitment has been automatically reduced to $80
million. As of June 30, 2000, Prudential's equity interest in the Partnership,
on a cost basis, under this commitment was $44 million. Prudential does not
intend to make any contributions during the 2000 fiscal year and will begin to
phase out this commitment over the next several years.

On June 28, 2000, the Partnership made an $8 million distribution to a partner,
while on February 2, 1999 a distribution of $30 million was made to the
Partners. Additional distributions may be made to the Partners during 2000,
taking into consideration anticipated cash needs of the Partnership including
potential property acquisitions, property dispositions and capital expenditures.
Management anticipates that its current liquid assets and ongoing cash flow from
operations will satisfy the Partnership's needs over the next twelve months and
the foreseeable future.

During the first six months of 2000, the Partnership spent approximately $2.3
million in capital expenditures. Approximately $1.3 million was associated with
the renovation of the apartment complex located in Jacksonville, FL. The balance
was primarily associated with leasing activity at one of the office properties
located in Brentwood, TN and another located in Morristown, NJ.

The Partnership's net investment income for the six months ended June 30, 2000
was $6.7 million, an increase of $0.4 million from net investment income of $6.3
million in the corresponding period in 1999. The Partnership's net investment
income for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 was $3.2 million, a decrease of $1.3
million from net investment income of $4.5 million in the corresponding period
in 1999.

Revenue from real estate properties was $11.5 million for the six months ended
June, 30 2000, an increase of $1.0 million, or 9.4%, from $10.5 million in the
corresponding period in 1999. This increase was primarily due to the
Partnership's acquisition of a controlling interest in an apartment complex
located in Jacksonville, FL.

Revenue from real estate properties was $5.6 million for the second quarter of
2000, a decrease of $1.3 million, or 18.3%, from $6.9 million in the
corresponding quarter in 1999. This decrease was primarily due to a $940,000
lease


                                       17
<PAGE>

termination fee collected during the second quarter of 1999 from a tenant at the
office property located in Oakbrook Terrace, IL coupled with a corresponding
decrease in occupancy from 100% to 55% at this same office complex.

Equity in income from real estate partnership increased $320,176 during the
first six months of 2000, and $150,963 during the second quarter of 2000, as a
result of the acquisition of the Partnership's equity investment interest in the
retail portfolio located in the Kansas City, MO area. This interest was not
acquired until October 1999.

Dividend income from real estate investment trusts was $779,915 for the first
six months of 2000, an increase of $342,846 or 78% from the corresponding period
in 1999. Dividend income from real estate investment trusts amounted to $426,164
for the quarter ended June 30, 2000, an increase of $156,370, or 58.0%, compared
to the corresponding quarter in 1999. These increases were primarily due to
higher amounts invested in real estate investment trusts. A significant increase
in the Partnership's investment in REIT shares took place in the latter part of
the second quarter 1999. Therefore, dividend income for the first six months of
2000 represents a full six months of dividend income activity on the increased
investment, while the first six months of 1999 only include approximately 1 1/2
months dividend income from the increased investment.

Interest on short-term investments decreased approximately $0.5 million or 49.5%
for the six months ended June 30, 2000 due primarily to a significantly lower
average cash balance. Cash and cash equivalents during the first six months of
2000 averaged approximately $17.5 million compared to approximately $42.3
million for the first six months of 1999.

Interest on short-term investments decreased approximately $0.1 million or 33.4%
from $0.4 million during the second quarter of 1999 to $0.3 million during the
second quarter of 2000 also as a result of a significantly lower average cash
balance.

Real estate taxes decreased $0.2 million or 14.1% to $1.3 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2000, when compared to the corresponding period in 1999.
Real estate tax expense decreased $0.3 million from $0.9 million for the second
quarter of 1999 to $0.6 million for the second quarter of 2000. These decreases
were primarily due to decreased real estate taxes by the industrial property
located in Aurora, CO, the apartment complex located in Atlanta, GA, and the
apartment complex located in Farmington Hills, MI. Offsetting these decreases in
real estate tax expense was the acquisition of a controlling interest in an
apartment complex located in Jacksonville, FL.

Administrative expenses increased $0.3 million, or 24.4%, for the first six
months of 2000 over the corresponding period in 1999. Administrative expenses
for the second quarter of 2000 increased $0.1 million or 18.4% to $0.7 million
when compared to the second quarter of 1999. These increases were primarily due
to the acquisition of a controlling interest in an apartment complex located in
Jacksonville, FL.

Operating expenses increased $0.3 million or 18.7% to $2.1 million during the
first six months of 2000 when compared to the corresponding period in 1999.
Operating expenses increased $0.3 million or 35.6% to $1.1 million when compared
to the second quarter of 1999. These increases were primarily a result of the
Partnership's acquisition of a controlling interest in the apartment complex
located in Jacksonville, FL.

Interest expense increased $353,707 during the first six months of 2000,
and $177,600 during the second quarter of 2000, when compared to the
corresponding periods in 1999. These increases were a result of the
Partnership's acquisition of a controlling interest in the apartment complex
located in Jacksonville, FL, which was acquired subject to $10.2 million in
debt.

Minority interest in consolidated partnership decreased $33,746 during the first
six months of 2000, and $45,531 during the second quarter of 2000. These
decreases were a result of the Partnership's controlling joint venture
investment in the apartment complex located in Jacksonville, FL.

OFFICE PROPERTIES

Net investment income from property operations for the office sector decreased
approximately $0.8 million or


                                       18
<PAGE>

22.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2000 when compared to the corresponding
period in 1999. Net investment income from property operations for the office
sector decreased approximately $1.3 million or 50.3% during the second quarter
of 2000 when compared to the corresponding period in 1999. These decreases were
primarily due to lower revenue levels experienced by the Oakbrook Terrace, IL
office complex during 2000 as a result of the lease termination fee received
from one of the tenants during 1999 coupled with a corresponding decrease in
occupancy at this same office property discussed previously. A 44% decrease in
occupancy at one of the Brentwood, TN office properties also contributed to the
decrease.

The six office properties owned by the Partnership experienced a net unrealized
loss of approximately $2.3 million during the first six months of 2000 compared
to a net unrealized loss of $3.9 million in the corresponding period in 1999.
The largest share (50%) of the net unrealized loss experienced during 2000 was
primarily due to the office property located in Oakbrook Terrace, IL. This
approximate $1.2 million value decrease was due to a lease termination
associated with 45% of the space and weaker market conditions. The Morristown,
NJ office property also experienced a net unrealized loss of approximately $0.8
million primarily due to capital expenditures on the property that were not
reflected as an increase in market value. The majority of the $3.9 million net
unrealized loss during the first six months of 1999 was attributable to the
office complex located in Oakbrook Terrace, IL. This $2.3 million (14%) value
decrease was due to costs associated with re-leasing and expected vacancy
resulting from the upcoming lease termination exercised by a tenant.

The office properties experienced a net unrealized loss of approximately $0.2
million during the second quarter of 2000 compared to a net unrealized loss of
$2.6 million in the corresponding period in 1999. The loss for the second
quarter of 2000 consisted of $1.2 million at the Oakbrook Terrace, IL property
and $0.1 million at the Morristown, NJ office complex for the reasons discussed
above. In addition, one of the Brentwood, TN office complexes experienced a net
unrealized loss of $0.1 million due to a decrease in occupancy since the
beginning of the year. Offsetting these net unrealized losses was a net
unrealized gain of $1.2 million experienced by the office complex located in
Beaverton, OR primarily as a result of increased occupancy at the property at
higher rental rates than previously forecasted.

Occupancy at the Morristown, NJ property increased from 85% at June 30, 1999 to
100% at June 30, 2000, while occupancy at the Lisle, IL office property
decreased from 89% at June 30, 1999 to 82% at June 30, 2000. Occupancy at one of
the Brentwood, TN office complexes decreased from 100% to 56% from June 30, 1999
to June 30, 2000, while occupancy at the other Brentwood, TN office property
remained unchanged at 100%. Occupancy at the Oakbrook Terrace, IL office complex
decreased from 100% at June 30, 1999 to 55% at June 30, 2000, while occupancy at
the Beaverton, OR office complex decreased from 100% at June 30, 1999 to 61% at
June 30, 2000. The Beaverton, OR vacancy has been re-leased. As of June 30, 2000
all vacant spaces were being marketed.


APARTMENT COMPLEXES

Net investment income from property operations for the apartment sector was $1.7
million for the first six months of 2000, an increase of $0.8 million or 85.4%
compared with the corresponding period in 1999. Net investment income from
property operations for the apartment complexes was $0.8 million for the second
quarter of 2000, an increase of $0.3 million or 47.9% compared with the
corresponding period in 1999. These increases were primarily due to the
acquisition of the controlling interest in the apartment complex located in
Jacksonville, FL,

The apartment complexes owned by the Partnership experienced a net unrealized
gain of $518,075 and $425,925 for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999
respectively. The apartments experienced a net unrealized gain of $438,423 and
$491,295 for the quarters ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 respectively.

The occupancy at the Atlanta, GA complex increased from 97% at June 30, 1999 to
98% at June 30, 2000. Occupancy at the apartment complex in Raleigh, NC
decreased from 95% at June 30, 1999 to 88% at June 30, 2000. Occupancy at the
Jacksonville, FL apartment complex was 85% at June 30, 2000. This vacancy is
largely a result of


                                       19

renovations at the project. As apartments are renovated, they are then re-leased
at higher rates. As of June 30, 2000, all available vacant units were being
marketed.

RETAIL PROPERTIES

Net investment income for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 for the
Partnership's retail property located in Roswell, GA was approximately $1.4
million for both periods. Net investment income for the second quarter of 2000
and 1999 was approximately $0.7 million for both periods.

The retail property experienced a net unrealized loss of $45,620 and a net
unrealized gain of $331,740 for the first six months of 2000 and 1999,
respectively. The unrealized loss experienced by the property in 2000 was due to
capital expenditures which did not increase the market value of the property.
The increase in value for 1999 was attributable to improved occupancy and market
conditions.

The retail property experienced a net unrealized loss of $5,991 and a net
unrealized gain of $480,916 for the second quarter of 2000 and 1999,
respectively. The net unrealized gain and loss are attributable to the
aforementioned reasons.

On September 30, 1999, the Partnership invested in an equity joint venture of
retail centers located in the Kansas City, MO area. During the six months ended
June 30, 2000, income from this investment amounted to $320,176, while income
for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 was $150,963. This investment experienced a
net unrealized gain during the first six months of 2000 of $265,777, and a net
unrealized gain for the second quarter 2000 of $185,211, primarily due to
increased leasing and higher rental rates.

Occupancy at the shopping center located in Roswell, GA decreased from 98% at
June 30, 1999 to 97% at June 30, 2000. The retail portfolio located in the
Kansas City, MO area had an average occupancy of 93% at June 30, 2000. As of
June 30, 2000, all vacant spaces were being marketed.

INDUSTRIAL PROPERTIES

Net investment income from property operations for the industrial properties
increased from $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 to $0.8
million for the corresponding period in 2000. Net investment income from
property operations for the industrial properties increased from $0.1 million
for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 to $0.4 million for the corresponding
quarter in 2000. The majority of these increases was a result of increased
occupancy at the property located in Aurora, CO.

The three industrial properties owned by the Partnership experienced a net
unrealized loss of approximately $1.1 million and $0.2 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The majority of the decrease
was attributable to the Aurora, CO industrial property, which had a loss of
approximately $0.7 million due to more conservative assumptions regarding rental
rates, lease-up time and terminal capitalization rates used by the appraiser. In
addition, capital expenditures were made on the property that were not reflected
as an increase in market value. The industrial property located in Bolingbrook,
IL experienced an unrealized loss of $0.4 million during the six months of 2000.
This loss was due to softening market conditions. The majority of the $0.1
million decrease for 1999 was attributable to the Aurora, CO industrial property
due to capital expenditures on the property that were not reflected as an
increase in market value.

The three industrial properties owned by the Partnership experienced a net
unrealized loss of approximately $11,000 and $5,000 for the quarters ended June
30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

The occupancy at the Bolingbrook, IL property was 100% at June 30, 2000 and
1999. The occupancy at the Salt Lake City, Utah property remained unchanged at
34% from June 30, 1999 to June 30, 2000. The Aurora, CO property's occupancy
rate increased to 75% at June 30, 2000 from 67% at June 30, 1999. As of June 30,
2000, all vacant spaces were being marketed.

REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUSTS

The Partnership recognized a net realized gain from real estate investment
trusts of $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000 primarily as a
result of the sale of the Partnership's remaining investment in 386,208 ProLogis
REIT shares.

During the first six months of 1999, the Partnership recognized a realized gain
of $401,713 from the exchange of 506,894 shares of Meridian REIT for 557,583
shares of ProLogis REIT which was offset by a realized loss of $187,715
primarily as a result of the sale of 171,375 ProLogis REIT shares.

The Partnership's investment in REIT shares experienced an unrealized gain of
$0.7 million and an unrealized loss of $0.3 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. During the quarters ended June 30, 2000
and June 30, 1999, the Partnership's investment in REIT shares experienced an
unrealized gain of $1.8 million and an unrealized loss of $0.8 million,
respectively. These changes in unrealized gain and loss reflect changes in the
market value of REIT shares held by the Partnership.

Management applied a 3% discount to the market value of the ProLogis REIT shares
through June 29, 1999 because of a restriction which limited the number of
shares that could be publicly traded during any six month period. This discount
was discontinued on June 30, 1999 because this restriction no longer applied.


OTHER

Other net investment income decreased $0.8 million during the six months ended
June 30, 2000 compared to the corresponding period last year. Other net
investment income decreased $0.9 million during the second quarter of 2000
compared to the corresponding quarter last year. Other net investment income
includes interest income from short -term investments, investment management
fees, and expenses not related to property activities. Interest income on
short-term investments decreased primarily as a result of a the Partnership
maintaining a significantly lower cash balance when compared to the
corresponding periods last year as mentioned previously. In addition, expenses
not related to property activities increased when compared to the same periods
last year.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Account and the Partnership are not subject to significant exposure to
market rate risk for changes in interest rates because the Partnership's
financial instruments consist primarily of short-term fixed rate commercial
paper and neither the Account nor the Partnership use derivative financial
instruments. Further, by policy, the Partnership places its investments with
high quality debt security issuers, limits the amount of credit exposure to any
one issuer, limits duration by restricting the term, and holds investments to
maturity except under rare circumstances.
