ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS

On May 16, 1996, Bay Apartment Communities, Inc. (the "Company")
purchased from C. Gemma Hwang and K. Philip Hwang a 208 apartment home community
located in Union City, California ("Park Centre Apartments") for approximately
$11.4 million. The Company plans to invest approximately $2.9 million in a major
redevelopment program which will include exterior repairs (such as a new roof,
entry gate and exterior painting) and upgrades of apartment interiors (including
new appliances, plumbing fixtures, cabinet faces and floor and wall coverings).
In addition, the Company intends to add a new fitness center and upgrade the
community's leasing office, landscaping and lighting. The occupancy rate of Park
Centre Apartments was approximately 94% as of May 16, 1996.

On May 16, 1996, the Company purchased from TCR #706 Parkside,
Limited, a Texas limited partnership, a 192 apartment home community located in
Sunnyvale, California ("Parkside Commons") for approximately $25.5 million. The
occupancy rate of Parkside Commons was approximately 100% as of May 16, 1996.

On May 23, 1996, the Company purchased from Consolidated Sunset
Limited Partnership a 243 apartment home community located in San Francisco,
California ("Sunset Towers") for approximately $24.3 million. The Company plans
to invest approximately $2 million in a major redevelopment program which will
include upgrading of apartment interiors, community lobbies and hallways, the
replacement of some mechanical systems and the repair and improvement of the
structure's exterior. The occupancy rate of Sunset Towers was approximately
99% as of May 23, 1996.

The Company financed the acquisitions of Park Centre Apartments,
Parkside Commons and Sunset Towers through draws in the aggregate of
approximately $61.2 million from the Company's $150 million unsecured line of
credit (the "UBS Acquisition Loan") provided by Union Bank of Switzerland for
acquisition and construction purposes. The UBS Acquisition Loan is for a term
of three years and bears interest at the rate of 1.55% over LIBOR.

The Company has entered into contracts to acquire two apartment home
communities, Countrybrook in San Jose, CA and Villa Marguerite in Mission
Viejo, CA. Countrybrook has 360 apartment homes and Villa Marguerite has 166
apartment homes. There can be no assurance that the Company will acquire these
communities.

_______________

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

The pro forma financial statements of Bay Apartment Communities (the
"Company"), which are unaudited, have been prepared based on the
historical financial statements of the Company. The pro forma
consolidated balance sheet has been prepared as if the acquisition of
the three apartment communities in May, 1996 (the "1996 Acquired
Communities"), the closing of the three probable acquisitions (the
"Acquisition Communities"), the acquisition of a land parcel (the
"Land Parcel"), the Company's private placement offering in May, 1996
(the "May 1996 Offering"), borrowings under the $150 million unsecured
line of credit (the "1996 Credit Facility"), and the retirement of the
$80 million and $47 million lines of credit (the "Acquisition Loans")
had occurred on March 31, 1996. The pro forma consolidated statements
of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1996, and the year
ended December 31, 1995, have been prepared as if the above mentioned
events had occurred on January 1, 1995. In management's opinion, all
adjustments necessary to reflect the effects of these transactions
have been made. The pro forma financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the historical financial statements of the Company.

The pro forma financial statements are not necessarily indicative of
what the actual results of operations of the Company would have been
for the three months ended March 31, 1996 or for the year ended
December 31, 1995 had the 1996 Acquired Communities, the Acquisition
Communities, the May 1996 Offering, and the borrowings under the 1996
Credit Facility and corresponding retirement of the Acquisition Loans
occurred on January 1, 1995, nor do they purport to represent the
results of operations for future periods.

2. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS:

A. Additional real estate assets are attributable to the 1996 Acquired
Communities, the Acquisition Communities, and the Land Parcel. The
1996 Acquired Communities consists of the $11.4 million acquisition of
the Park Centre Apartments, the $25.5 acquisition of Parkside
Apartments, and the $24.3 acquisition of Sunset Apartments. The
Acquisition Communities consists of the probable acquisitions of
Martinique Gardens for approximately $7.5 million, Countrybrook
Apartments for approximately $28.8 million, and Villa Marguerite
Apartments for approximately $10.1 million. The Land Parcel was
purchased in May, 1996 for approximately $20.7 million.

B. Decrease in cash and cash equivalents is attributable to cash used to
acquire the 1996 Acquired Communities, the Acquisition Communities,
and the Land Parcel.

2. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS, continued:

C. Increase in other assets, net is attributable to prepaid property
taxes from the 1996 Acquired Communities.

D. Increase in notes payable is attributable to the $90 million draw on
the 1996 Credit Line and the $28 million increase in tax exempt debt
from the acquisition of the 1996 Acquired Communities, the Acquisition
Communities, and the Land Parcel. Two of the communities in the
Acquisition Communities are encumbered by first deeds of trust which
collateralize housing bond issues, totaling $28 million in aggregate.

E. Increase in other liabilities is attributable to resident deposits
from the 1996 Acquired Communities and the Acquisition Communities.

F. Increase due to partnership units issued to seller in acquisition of
Countrybrook Apartments.

G. Increase in cash and cash equivalents is attributable to $49.5 million
in net proceeds from the May, 1996 Offering offset by the $41.5
million retirement of the Acquisition Loans.

H. Decrease in other assets, net and corresponding increase in dividends
in excess of accumulated earnings is attributable to write-off of
capitalized loan fees related to the retirement of the Acquisition
Loans.

I. Decrease in notes payable is attributable to the retirement of the
Acquisition Loans.

J. Increase in preferred and common stock is attributable to the issuance
of shares from the May, 1996 Offering.

K. Additional paid in capital is attributable to the net proceeds from
the May 1996 Offering.

L. Additional rental and other revenue is attributable to the 1996
Acquired Communities and the Acquisition Communities.

M. Additional property operating expense is attributable to the 1996
Acquired Communities and the Acquisition Communities.

N. Additional property taxes expense is attributable to the 1996 Acquired
Communities, the Acquisition Communities, and the Land Parcel.

2. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS, continued:

O. General and administrative expense is adjusted to reflect an increase
in staff at the corporate level as well as additional expense at the
1996 Acquired Communities and the Acquisition Communities.

P. Additional interest expense relating to the debt incurred in
connection with the acquisition of the 1996 Acquired Communities, the
Acquisition Communities, and the Land Parcel has been computed based
upon the 30-day London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus a 1.55%
margin on the $90 million aggregate draw on the Company's 1996 Credit
Facility.

Q. Depreciation expense attributable to the 1996 Acquired Communities and
the Acquisition Communities has been computed using the straight-line
method of cost recovery over 30 years for buildings and 7 years for
furniture, fixtures and equipment.

R. Decrease in interest expense reflects the reduction in historical
interest from the assumed retirement of the Acquisition Loans.
