Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

Venture Pointe I, Duluth, Georgia

On December 27, 2001, we purchased an existing shopping center known as Venture Pointe I located on approximately 39 acres and containing 334,620 gross leasable square feet. The center is located at I-85 & Steve Reynolds Blvd., Duluth, Georgia.

We purchased Venture Pointe I Shopping Center from Thomas Enterprises, Inc., an unaffiliated third party. Our total acquisition cost, including expenses, was approximately $26,315,000. This amount may increase by additional costs, which have not yet been finally determined. We expect any additional costs to be insignificant. Our acquisition cost is approximately $79 per square foot of leasable space.

We purchased this property with our own funds and the proceeds of an assumed loan from Columbus Bank and Trust. The loan, in the principal amount of $13,333,000, requires interest only payments at a rate of prime plus 1/4 point. The loan matures June 27, 2002. We intent to refinance the loan with more permanent financing before the maturity date.

In evaluating this property as a potential acquisition and determining the appropriate amount of consideration to be paid for the property, we considered a variety of factors including overall valuation of net rental income, location, demographics, tenant mix, quality of tenants, length of leases, price per square foot, occupancy and the fact that overall rental rates at the shopping center are comparable to market rates. We believe that this property is well located, has acceptable roadway access, attracts high-quality tenants, is well maintained and has been professionally managed. This property will be subject to competition from similar shopping centers within its market area, and its economic performance could be affected by changes in local economic conditions. We did not consider any other factors materially relevant to the decision to acquire this property.

We do not intend to make significant repairs and improvements to this property over the next few years. However, if we were to make any repairs or improvements, the tenants would be obligated to pay a substantial portion of any monies spent pursuant to the provisions of their respective leases.

Venture Pointe I Shopping Center was built in 1996. The property is comprised of five single story, multi-tenant buildings and two single-user buildings. As of January 2, 2002, this property was 100% leased.

Four tenants, Kohl's (a discount department store), Babies R Us (a clothing and accessories store for babies), Goody's Family Clothing (a family clothing store), Hobby Lobby (a retail craft supply store) and Ashley's (a discount department store), each lease more than 10% of the total gross leasable area of the property. The leases with these tenants require the tenant to pay base annual rent on a monthly basis as follows:

We received a letter appraisal, which states that it was prepared in conformity with the Uniform Standards of Professional Practice of the Appraisal Institute by an independent appraiser who is a member of the Appraisal Institute. The appraisal reported an "as is" market value for Venture Pointe, as of November 29, 2001, of $22,900,000 and an "as stabilized" value, as of April 1, 2002, of $26,500,000. The "as stabilized" value reflects the market value when all tenants currently leased have taken occupancy. Appraisals are estimates of value and should not be relied on as a measure of true worth or realizable value.

Douglasville Pavilion, Douglasville, Georgia

On December 21, 2001, a limited liability company ("llc") we formed purchased an existing shopping center known as Douglasville Pavilion located on approximately 26 acres and containing 267,764 gross leasable square feet. The center is located at Douglas Blvd. and Chapel Hill Rd , off I-20, Douglasville, Georgia.

We purchased Douglasville Pavilion Shopping Center from Thomas Enterprises, Inc., an unaffiliated third party. Our total acquisition cost, including expenses, was approximately $27,160,000. This amount may increase by additional costs, which have not yet been finally determined. We expect any additional costs to be insignificant. Our acquisition cost is approximately $101 per square foot of leasable space.

We purchased this property with our own funds and the proceeds of an assumed loan from South Trust Bank. We formed the llc with Inland Real Estate Investment Corporation ("IREIC"), an affiliate of our Advisor. South Trust Bank required that IREIC hold a controlling interest in the llc. IREIC holds a 51% interest in the llc and we hold a 49% interest. The llc acquired the property, while we retain all economic burdens and benefits of ownership of the property. IREIC will guaranty this loan. As consideration for IREIC's guaranty of the loan, we will pay IREIC an annual fee equal to 1/8% of the outstanding loan balance, to be paid monthly. The loan, in the principal amount of $20,000,000, requires interest only payments at a rate of 185 points over LIBOR for the first six months. The loan matures on June 21, 2002. The loan may be extended for an additional six months at a rate of 175 points over LIBOR. We intent to refinance the loan with more permanent financing before the initial maturity date. This structure provided us with the ability to close the transaction quickly and provided us with a lower cost of capital than we might have otherwise obtained for the transaction.

In evaluating this property as a potential acquisition and determining the appropriate amount of consideration to be paid for the property, we considered a variety of factors including overall valuation of net rental income, location, demographics, tenant mix, quality of tenants, length of leases, price per square foot, occupancy and the fact that overall rental rates at the shopping center are comparable to market rates. We believe that this property is well located, has acceptable roadway access, attracts high-quality tenants, is well maintained and has been professionally managed. This property will be subject to competition from similar shopping centers within its market area, and its economic performance could be affected by changes in local economic conditions. We did not consider any other factors materially relevant to the decision to acquire this property.

We do not intend to make significant repairs and improvements to this property over the next few years. However, if we were to make any repairs or improvements, the tenants would be obligated to pay a substantial portion of any monies spent pursuant to the provisions of their respective leases.

Douglasville Pavilion Shopping Center was built in 1998. The property is comprised of two single-story, multi-tenant buildings and a ground lease for an outlot building. As of January 2, 2002, this property was 100% leased.

Four tenants, Marshall's (a discount department store), Goody's (a family clothing store), Ross (a discount retail apparel and home accessories store) and Media Play (a books, music, video, computer software store) each lease more than 10% of the total gross leasable area of the property.

Southlake Pavilion Company, Morrow, Georgia

On December 31, 2001, a llc we formed purchased an existing shopping center known as Southlake Pavilion Company located on approximately 51 acres and containing 525,162 gross leasable square feet. The center is located at 1900 Mt. Zion Road, Morrow, Georgia.

We purchased Southlake Pavilion Shopping Center (Phases III, IV and V) from Thomas Enterprises, Inc., an unaffiliated third party. Our current acquisition cost, including expenses, was approximately $56,236,000. The purchase price was adjusted at the time of closing for spaces not leased or occupied with the tenant paying full rent. We will pay the balance of the purchase price of approximately $9,535,000 as tenants begin paying rent. The seller has eighteen months from the date of closing to lease the vacant space at closing and receive the balance of the purchase price. This amount may also increase by additional costs, which have not yet been finally determined. We expect any additional costs to be insignificant. Our total acquisition cost is expected to be approximately $126 per square foot of leasable space.

We purchased this property with our own funds and the proceeds from two assumed loans. We formed the llc with IREIC, an affiliate of our Advisor. South Trust Bank required that IREIC hold a controlling interest in the llc. IREIC holds a 51% interest in the llc and we hold a 49% interest. The llc acquired the property, while we retain all economic burdens and benefits of ownership of the property. IREIC will guaranty the loan. As consideration for IREIC's guaranty of the loan, we will pay IREIC an annual fee equal to 1/8% of the outstanding loan balance, to be paid monthly. The llc obtained a $10,000,000 loan from Columbus Bank and Trust secured by a first mortgage on Southlake III. The loan requires interest only payments at an annual rate of prime plus1/4 points. The loan matures June 30, 2002. We intent to refinance the loan with more permanent financing before the maturity date. Because of to the purchase price adjustment, the loan was not borrowed in full at the time of closing. At closing, we borrowed $8,500,000 of the total available loan. The balance of the loan will be borrowed as we pay the balance of the purchase price. The llc also obtained a loan from South Trust Bank. This loan is secured by a first mortgage on Southlake IV and V and is in the principal amount of $36,780,000. The loan requires interest only payments at a rate of 185 points over LIBOR. The loan matures on June 30, 2002. The loan may be extended for an additional six months at a rate of 175 points over LIBOR. We intend to refinance the loan with more permanent financing before the initial maturity date. Because of the purchase price adjustment, this loan was not borrowed in full at the time of closing. At closing we borrowed $31,240,000 of the total available loan. The balance of the loan will be borrowed as we pay the balance of the purchase price. This structure provided us with the ability to close the transaction quickly and provided us with a lower cost of capital than we might have otherwise obtained for the transaction.

In evaluating this property as a potential acquisition and determining the appropriate amount of consideration to be paid for the property, we considered a variety of factors including overall valuation of net rental income, location, demographics, tenant mix, quality of tenants, length of leases, price per square foot, occupancy and the fact that overall rental rates at the shopping center are comparable to market rates. We believe that this property is well located, has acceptable roadway access, attracts high-quality tenants, is well maintained and has been professionally managed. This property will be subject to competition from similar shopping centers within its market area, and its economic performance could be affected by changes in local economic conditions. We did not consider any other factors materially relevant to the decision to acquire this property.

We do not intend to make significant repairs and improvements to this property over the next few years. However, if we were to make any repairs or improvements, the tenants would be obligated to pay a substantial portion of any monies spent pursuant to the provisions of their respective leases.

Southlake Pavilion Shopping Center was built in phases. Phase III was completed in 1998. Phases IV and V were begun in 2001 and will be completed in 2002. The property consists of five multi-tenant, single story buildings and seven single tenant, single story buildings. As of January 2, 2002, this property was approximately 99% leased.

One tenant, Ashley's (a discount department store) will lease more than 10% of the total gross leasable area of the property. The lease with this tenant requires the tenant to pay base annual rent on a monthly basis as follows:

We received a letter appraisal, which states that it was prepared in conformity with the Uniform Standards of Professional Practice of the Appraisal Institute by an independent appraiser who is a member of the Appraisal Institute. The appraisal reported an "as is" market value for Fayetteville Pavilion, as of December 9, 2001, of $28,600,000 and an "as stabilized" value, as of April 1, 2002, of $29,000,000. The "as stabilized" value reflects the market value when all tenants currently leased have taken occupancy. Appraisals are estimates of value and should not be relied on as a measure of true worth or realizable value.

Fayetteville Pavilion, Phases I & II, Fayetteville, North Carolina

On December 31, 2001, a llc we formed we purchased an existing shopping center known as Fayetteville Pavilion containing 272,385 gross leasable square feet. The center is located at US 401/Skibo Road and Richwood Court, Fayetteville, North Carolina.

We purchased Fayetteville Pavilion Shopping Center from Thomas Enterprises, Inc., an unaffiliated third party. Our current acquisition cost, including expenses, was approximately $26,865,000. The purchase price was adjusted at the time of closing for spaces not leased or occupied with the tenant paying full rent. We will pay the balance of the purchase price of approximately $2,196,000 as tenants begin paying rent. The seller has eighteen months from the date of closing to lease the vacant space at closing and receive the balance of the purchase price. This amount may increase by additional costs, which have not yet been finally determined. We expect any additional costs to be insignificant. Our total acquisition cost is expected to be approximately $107 per square foot of leasable space.

We purchased this property with our own funds and the proceeds of an assumed loan from South Trust Bank. We formed the llc with IREIC, an affiliate of our Advisor. South Trust Bank required that IREIC hold a controlling interest in the llc. IREIC holds a 51% interest in the LLC and we hold a 49% interest. The LLC acquired the property, while we retain all economic burdens and benefits of ownership of the property. IREIC will guaranty the loan. As consideration for IREIC's guaranty of the loan, we will pay IREIC an annual fee equal to 1/8% of the outstanding loan balance, to be paid monthly. The total loan available in the principal amount of $21,700,000, requires interest only payments at a rate of 185 points over LIBOR on the outstanding balance. Because of the purchase price adjustment, the loan was not borrowed in full at the time of closing. At closing we borrowed $21,133,000 of the total available loan. The balance of the loan will be borrowed as we pay the balance of the purchase price. The loan matures on June 21, 2002. The loan may be extended for an additional six months at a rate of 175 points over LIBOR. We intent to refinance the loan with more permanent financing before the initial maturity date. This structure provided us with the ability to close the transaction quickly and provided us with a lower cost of capital than we might have otherwise obtained for the transaction.

In evaluating this property as a potential acquisition and determining the appropriate amount of consideration to be paid for the property, we considered a variety of factors including overall valuation of net rental income, location, demographics, tenant mix, quality of tenants, length of leases, price per square foot, occupancy and the fact that overall rental rates at the shopping center are comparable to market rates. We believe that this property is well located, has acceptable roadway access, attracts high-quality tenants, is well maintained and has been professionally managed. This property will be subject to competition from similar shopping centers within its market area, and its economic performance could be affected by changes in local economic conditions. We did not consider any other factors materially relevant to the decision to acquire this property.

We do not intend to make significant repairs and improvements to this property over the next few years. However, if we were to make any repairs or improvements, the tenants would be obligated to pay a substantial portion of any monies spent pursuant to the provisions of their respective leases.

Fayetteville Pavilion Shopping Center was built in two phases. Phase I was completed in 1998 and Phase II was completed in 2001. The property is comprised of four single-story multi-tenant buildings. As of January 2, 2002, this property was approximately 97% leased.

Four tenants, Food Lion (a grocery store), Dicks (a sporting goods store), Linens N Things (a store specializing in home textiles, housewares and decorative accessories), and Marshall's (a discount clothing store), each leases more than 10% of the total gross leasable area of the property. The leases with these tenants require the tenants to pay base annual rent on a monthly basis as follows:

Abernathy Square, Atlanta, Georgia

On December 14, 2001 purchased an existing shopping center known as Abernathy Square located on approximately 15 acres and containing 131,649 gross leasable square feet. The center is located at the southeast corner of the intersection of Abernathy Road and Roswell Road in north Fulton County, Atlanta, Georgia.

We purchased Abernathy Square Shopping Center from an unaffiliated third party. Our total acquisition cost, including expenses, was approximately $24,000,000, net of a $350,000 credit at closing for roof repairs and tenant improvements. This amount may increase by additional costs, which have not yet been finally determined. We expect any additional costs to be insignificant. Our acquisition cost is expected to be approximately $185 per square foot of leasable space.

We purchased this property with our own funds. However, we expect to place financing on the property at a later date.

In evaluating this property as a potential acquisition and determining the appropriate amount of consideration to be paid for the property, we considered a variety of factors including overall valuation of net rental income, location, demographics, tenant mix, quality of tenants, length of leases, price per square foot, occupancy and the fact that overall rental rates at the shopping center are comparable to market rates. We believe that this property is well located, has acceptable roadway access, attracts high-quality tenants, is well maintained and has been professionally managed. This property will be subject to competition from similar shopping centers within its market area, and its economic performance could be affected by changes in local economic conditions. Based on environmental reports, we obtained a $10,000,000 insurance policy for ten years to cover potential claims relating to environmental issues as a result of dry cleaning chemicals used by a tenant at the center. We did not consider any other factors materially relevant to the decision to acquire this property.

We will receive a $350,000 credit at closing for roof repairs and tenant improvements. We do not intend to make any additional significant repairs and improvements to this property over the next few years. However, if we were to make any repairs or improvements, the tenants would be obligated to pay a substantial portion of any monies spent pursuant to the provisions of their respective leases.

Abernathy Square Shopping Center was built in 1983 and renovated and expanded in 1994. The property consists of five single-story multi-tenant buildings. As of December 1, 2001, this property was approximately 92% leased.

One tenant, Publix (a grocery store), leases more than 10% of the total gross leasable area of the property. The lease with this tenant requires the tenant to pay base annual rent on a monthly basis as follows:

In general, each tenant pays its proportionate share of real estate taxes, insurance and common area maintenance costs, although the leases with some tenants provide that the tenant's liability for such expenses is limited in some way, usually so that their liability for such expenses does not exceed a specified amount.

The following tables sets forth lease expirations for this property for the next ten years, assuming that no renewal options are exercised:

For purposes of the above table, the "total annual base rent" column represents annualized base rent. For purposes of this column, we made no assumptions regarding the re-leasing of expiring leases. Therefore, as each lease expires, no amount is included in this column for any subsequent year for that lease. In view of the assumption made with regard to total annual base rent, the percent of annual base rent represented by expiring leases may not be reflective of the expected actual percentages. This is not indicative of or a prediction of future actual results. It is the opinion of our management that the space for expiring leases will be re-leased at market rates existing at the time of the expiration of those leases.
