                     WINDSOR REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST 8
                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1.  THE TRUST

Windsor Real Estate Investment Trust 8, an unincorporated California business
trust (the Trust), was formed in November 1991 for the purpose of acquiring,
managing and selling existing manufactured home communities. The Advisor of the
Trust is The Windsor Corporation ("TWC"), a California corporation. In September
1997, Chateau Communities, Inc ("Chateau"), a publicly held real estate
investment trust, purchased 100% of the shares of The Windsor Corporation.

The Trust was organized to invest in existing, substantially developed and
occupied manufactured home communities. Its investment objectives are to provide
to its shareholders (i) preservation, protection, and eventual return of the
shareholder's investment; (ii) quarterly dividends of cash from operations, some
of which may be a return of capital for tax purposes rather than taxable income;
(iii) realization of long-term appreciation in value of the properties acquired
by the Trust; and (iv) a hedge against inflation.

The Trust operates so as to qualify as a real estate investment trust (a REIT)
under Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. As a
REIT, the Trust distributes to its shareholders substantially all of its cash
flow from operations and, in any event, at least 95% of its real estate
investment trust taxable income.

The Trust was funded through a public offering of common and preferred shares
which commenced in April 1992 and terminated in April 1993. The Declaration of
Trust provides for the Trust's termination not later than December 2006.

In an effort to enhance shareholder value, the Trustees in the first quarter of
1998 authorized the Advisor to attempt to identify additional opportunities for
the Trust. The Advisor located a number of potential acquisitions and in March
of 1998, the Trust entered into an agreement to acquire a 627-site manufactured
home community in Montgomery, Alabama, for $5.5 million (the "Montgomery
Acquisition"). In order to enable the Trust to complete the acquisition, Chateau
offered to make an investment in the Trust. The Trustees accepted such offer
and, on March 30, 1998, the Trust entered into an agreement with Chateau,
pursuant to which Chateau invested $5.5 million in the Trust (the "Chateau
Investment") in exchange for the issuance within 90 days of such investment of
(i) such number of Common Shares (at a price of $25 per share) as the Trustees
may determine; and (ii) promissory notes in a principal amount of the balance of
the investment (the "Promissory Notes"). In connection with the Chateau
Investment, on May 11, 1998, the Trust issued to Chateau (i) 19,139 Common
Shares (at a price of $25 per share); and (ii) two Promissory Notes with an
aggregate principal amount of $5,001,525.

On May 14, 1998 the Trust filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"Commission") a Preliminary Proxy Statement seeking the approval of the Trust's
shareholders of (i) the amendment of the Declaration of Trust of the Trust (the
"Existing Declaration of Trust") through the approval and adoption of the form,
terms and provisions of an Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust (the
"Amended Declaration"); and (ii) the adoption of By-laws of the Trust, through
the approval of the form, terms and provisions of a proposed form of By-laws
(the "By-laws") for the Trust.




                                       7
<PAGE>   8


The principal purposes of the proposal are to convert the Trust from a
finite-life to an infinite-life entity, and to remove various restrictions and
limitations and other requirements contained in the Existing Declaration of
Trust which are not typically found in the more modern organizational documents
of leading real estate investment trusts. These include provisions that (i)
restrict the types and amounts of equity and debt securities that the Trust may
issue; (ii) limit the nature and types of investments that the Trust may make;
and (iii) mandate that proceeds from sales or refinancings of properties be
distributed to shareholders, and not reinvested in assets. The Amended
Declaration also provides for changing the name of the Trust to "N' Tandem
Trust."

If the proposal is approved by the Trust's shareholders, it is expected that the
Trust will also engage in the following transactions and effect the following
changes: (i) Chateau is expected to purchase at least an additional 130,000
Common shares, or Preferred Shares, or a combination thereof (the "Additional
Investment") (which would give Chateau an approximate 45% ownership in the
trust), for a purchase price equal to the aggregate fair market value of such
shares, as determined by the independent trustees of the Trust (but not below
$25 per share); (ii) the Trust will form an operating partnership subsidiary,
and contribute substantially all of its assets to such subsidiary, in order to
facilitate tax-free and / or tax-deferred acquisitions of additional properties;
(iii) the Trust will begin implementing a growth-oriented business plan (the
"Business Plan") intended to cause the Trust to attain greater size and asset
diversity; and (iv) if successful in the implementation of the Business Plan,
the Trust anticipates that it will, within two to four years after approval of
the proposal, seek to list the Common Shares on a national securities exchange
or NASDAQ, and if deemed appropriate, raise additional capital through an
underwritten public offering of the Common Shares, or other securities of the
Trust. There can be no assurance, however, that the Trust will be successful in
listing the Common Shares, or effecting such public offering.

NOTE 2.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The balance sheet at June 30, 1998 and the related statements of operations for
the three and six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 and the statements of cash
flows for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 are unaudited. However, in
the opinion of the Advisor, they contain all adjustments, of a normal recurring
nature, necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements. Interim
results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

The financial statements and notes are presented as permitted by Form 10-QSB and
do not contain certain information included in the Trust's annual financial
statements and notes on form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1997.

NOTE 4.  EQUITY TRANSACTIONS

The number of common shares issued and outstanding include 19,139 shares issued
to Chateau Communities, Inc. which was completed May 11, 1998.

NOTE 5.  BASIC AND DILUTIVE LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

Basic and dilutive loss per common share is calculated and based on the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during the period and income or loss
available to the common shareholders. The weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during the three and six months ended June 30, 1998 was
99,897 and during the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 the weighted
average was 90,169.

In 1997, the Trust adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128
(SFAS 128), "Earnings Per Share." This accounting standard specifies new
computation, presentation, and disclosure requirements for earnings per share to
be applied retroactively. Among other things, SFAS 128 requires presentation of
basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the income statement. The
adoption of SFAS 128 resulted in the restatement of the per share results
previously reported increasing the loss per share by $0.47 and $0.91 for the
three and six months ended June 30, 1997, respectively.

NOTE 7.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Advisory fee expense represents a fee payable to the Advisor for management of
the Trust's business. The fee is computed based on invested and uninvested asset
levels and is subject to certain subordination provisions. Advisory fee expense
for the three and six months ended June 30, 1998 was $39,000 and $63,800,

Chateau and/or its predecessor has been providing property management services
to the Partnership since 1992. For this service, Chateau is paid a property
management fee, which is based on a percentage of actual gross receipts of the
properties. The total management fees paid to Chateau were $21,600 and $32,700
for the three and six months ended June 30, 1998, respectively, and $11,000 and
$25,700 for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997, respectively. In
addition certain direct expenses are paid by Chateau on behalf of the
Partnership and then reimbursed by the Partnership. These amounts were $7,600
and $11,400 for the three and six months ended June 30, 1998, respectively, and

                     WINDSOR REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST 8
                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                       CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Three months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to three months ended June 30, 1997

Results of Operations

The results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 are
not directly comparable due to the sale of the Griffwood manufactured home
community in April 1997 and due to the Montgomery acquisition in March 1998. The
Trust incurred a net loss of $98,000 and $10,900 for the three months ended June
30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The net loss per common share was $1.35 in 1998
compared to a net loss of $0.53 in 1997.

Rent and utility revenues increased from $220,200 in 1997 to $459,300 in 1998
due primarily to the Montgomery Acquisition.

Equity in earnings of joint ventures and limited partnerships represents the
Trust's share of the net income (loss) of three joint venture and limited
partnership properties. Equity in earnings or share of losses of joint ventures
and limited partnerships decreased slightly from a loss of $10,000 in 1997 to a
$9,400 loss in 1998.

Interest income decreased from $1,800 in 1997 to $200 in 1998, due mainly to
lower cash balances maintained by the Trust.

Property operating expenses increased from $99,900 in 1997 to $210,800 in 1998
due to the Montgomery Acquisition.

Interest expense increased from $53,800 in 1997 to $175,000 in 1998, due to the
issuance of the Promissory Notes, in connection with the Montgomery Acquisition.

Depreciation expense increased from $40,800 in 1997 to $109,500 in 1998 due to
the Montgomery Acquisition.

Advisory fee expense represents a fee payable to the Advisor for management of
the Trust's business. The fee is computed based on invested and uninvested asset
levels and is subject to certain subordination provisions. Advisory fee expense
increased from $8,700 to $39,900 for the three months ended June 30, 1997 and
1998, respectively. The increase is due to the invested assets levels which
increased with the Montgomery Acquisition.

General and administrative expenses decreased from $22,100 in 1997 to $19,000 in
1998 due to lower employee charges charged to the General Partners.

Results of Operations

The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 are
not directly comparable due to the sale of the Griffwood manufactured home
community in April 1997 and due to the Montgomery acquisition. The Trust
incurred a net loss of $101,000 and $16,900 for the six months ended June 30,
1998 and 1997, respectively. The net loss per common share was $1.75 in 1998
compared to a net loss of $1.00 in 1997.

due primarily to the Montgomery Acquisition.

Equity in earnings of joint ventures and limited partnerships represents the
Trust's share of the net income (loss) of three joint venture and limited
partnership properties. Equity in earnings or share of losses of joint ventures
and limited partnerships increased from a loss of $13,800 in 1997 to a $16,900
loss in 1998, due to the losses incurred at Apache East and Denali Park
communities.

Interest income decreased from $2,900 in 1997 to $800 in 1998, due mainly to
lower cash balances maintained by the Trust.

Property operating expenses increased from $244,500 in 1997 to $301,700 in 1998
due to the Montgomery Acquisition offset by the sale of Griffwood.

Interest expense increased from $131,900 in 1997 to $223,200 in 1998, due to the
issuance of the Promissory Notes, in connection with the Montgomery Acquisition.

the Montgomery Acquisition.

Advisory fee expense represents a fee payable to the Advisor for management of
the Trust's business. The fee is computed based on invested and uninvested asset
levels and is subject to certain subordination provisions. Advisory fee expense
increased from $28,800 to $63,800 for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and
1998, respectively. The increase is due to the invested asset levels which
increased with the Montgomery Acquisition.

General and administrative expenses decreased from $39,400 in 1997 to $33,700 in
1998 due to lower employee charges charged to the General Partners.

Changes in Financial Condition

The Trust's primary sources of cash during the six months ended June 30, 1998
were from the operations of its investment properties, and the Chateau
Investment. The primary uses of cash during the same period were for the
purchase of a manufactured home community, cash dividends, and debt service.

On March 31, 1998, the Trust completed the Montgomery Acquisition for a purchase
price of approximately $5.5 million. The purchase was financed through the
Chateau Investment, which is made up of two loans totaling $5,001,525. These
loans bear interest at 100 basis points over prime. The equity contribution by
Chateau includes 19,139 shares issued which was completed May 11, 1998.

At June 30, 1998, the Trust's total mortgage debt, including its proportionate
share of joint venture and limited partnership debt, was $8,344,500, consisting
entirely of variable rate debt. The average rate of interest on the variable
rate debt was 9.1% at June 30, 1998.

The future sources of cash for the Trust in the near term will be provided from
property operations, cash reserves, and ultimately from the sale of property.
The future uses of such cash will be for property and Trust operations, debt
service and cash dividends to shareholders. The Advisor believes that these
sources of cash are sufficient to meet the working capital requirements of the
Trust for the foreseeable future.

On May 14, 1998 the Trust filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"Commission") a Preliminary Proxy Statement seeking the approval of the Trust's
shareholders of (i) the amendment of the Declaration of Trust of the Trust (the
"Existing Declaration of Trust") through the approval and adoption of the form,
terms and provisions of an Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust (the
"Amended Declaration"); and (ii) the adoption of By-laws of the Trust, through
the approval of the form, terms and provisions of a proposed form of By-laws
(the "By-laws") for the Trust.

The principal purposes of the proposal are to convert the Trust from a
finite-life to an infinite-life entity, and to remove various restrictions and
limitations and other requirements contained in the Existing Declaration of
Trust which are not typically found in the more modern organizational documents
of leading real estate investment trusts. These include provisions that (i)
restrict the types and amounts of equity and debt securities that the Trust may
issue; (ii) limit the nature and types of investments that the Trust may make;
and (iii) mandate that proceeds from sales or refinancing of properties be
distributed to shareholders, and not reinvested in assets. The Amended
Declaration also provides for changing the name of the Trust to "N' Tandem
Trust."

In 1997, the Trust adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128
(SFAS 128), "Earnings Per Share." This accounting standard specifies new
computation, presentation, and disclosure requirements for earnings per share to
be applied retroactively. Among other things, SFAS 128 requires presentation of
basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the income statement. The
adoption of SFAS 128 resulted in the restatement of the per share results
previously reported increasing the loss per share by $0.47 and $0.91 for the
three and six months ended June 30, 1997, respectively.
