Unaudited  March 31, 2007 
Notes To Portfolio of Investments   

NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

T. Rowe Price Real Estate Fund, Inc. (the fund), is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The fund seeks to provide long-term growth through a combination of capital appreciation and current income.

The accompanying portfolio of investments was prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require the use of estimates made by fund management. Fund management believes that estimates and security valuations are appropriate; however, actual results may differ from those estimates, and the security valuations reflected in the portfolio of investments may differ from the value the fund receives upon sale of the securities.

Valuation

The fund values its investments and computes its net asset value per share at the close of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4 p.m. ET, each day that the NYSE is open for business. Equity securities listed or regularly traded on a securities exchange or in the over-the-counter (OTC) market are valued at the last quoted sale price or, for certain markets, the official closing price at the time the valuations are made, except for OTC Bulletin Board securities, which are valued at the mean of the latest bid and asked prices. A security that is listed or traded on more than one exchange is valued at the quotation on the exchange determined to be the primary market for such security. Listed securities not traded on a particular day are valued at the mean of the latest bid and asked prices for domestic securities and the last quoted sale price for international securities.

Debt securities are generally traded in the OTC market. Securities with original maturities of one year or more are valued at prices furnished by dealers who make markets in such securities or by an independent pricing service, which considers yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity, and type, as well as prices quoted by dealers who make markets in such securities. Securities with original maturities of less than one year are valued at amortized cost in local currency, which approximates fair value when combined with accrued interest.

Investments in mutual funds are valued at the mutual fund's closing net asset value per share on the day of valuation.

Other investments, including restricted securities, and those for which the above valuation procedures are inappropriate or are deemed not to reflect fair value are stated at fair value as determined in good faith by the T. Rowe Price Valuation Committee, established by the fund's Board of Directors.

Investment Transactions

Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date.

New Accounting Pronouncement

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") released the Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 157 ("FAS 157"), Fair Value Measurements. FAS 157 clarifies the definition of fair value and establishes the framework for measuring fair value, as well as proper disclosure of this methodology in the financial statements. It will be effective for the fund's fiscal year beginning January 1, 2008. Management is evaluating the effects of FAS 157; however, it is not expected to have a material impact on the fund's net assets or results of operations.

NOTE 2 - INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

Consistent with its investment objective, the fund engages in the following practices to manage exposure to certain risks or to enhance performance. The investment objective, policies, program, and risk factors of the fund are described more fully in the fund's prospectus and Statement of Additional Information.

Restricted Securities

The fund may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. Although certain of these securities may be readily sold, for example, under Rule 144A, others may be illiquid, their sale may involve substantial delays and additional costs, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult.

NOTE 3 - FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

At March 31, 2007, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was $2,286,169,000. Net unrealized gain aggregated $599,655,000 at period-end, of which $607,000,000 related to appreciated investments and $7,345,000 related to depreciated investments.

NOTE 4 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The fund may invest in the T. Rowe Price Reserve Investment Fund and the T. Rowe Price Government Reserve Investment Fund (collectively, the T. Rowe Price Reserve Investment Funds), open-end management investment companies managed by Price Associates and affiliates of the fund. The T. Rowe Price Reserve Investment Funds are offered as cash management options to mutual funds, trusts, and other accounts managed by Price Associates and/or its affiliates, and are not available for direct purchase by members of the public. The T. Rowe Price Reserve Investment Funds pay no investment management fees. During the three months ended March 31, 2007, dividend income from the T. Rowe Price Reserve Investment Funds totaled $1,553,000, and the value of shares of the T. Rowe Price Reserve Investment Funds held at March 31, 2007, and December 31, 2006, was $85,553,000 and $77,001,000, respectively.
