ITEM 2.  ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS

         On August 26, 1999, Equity One, Inc. (the "Company"), through a
wholly-owned subsidiary, acquired a supermarket anchored shopping center known
as Pine Island Plaza, and an adjacent shopping center known as Ridge Plaza from
Pine Island Commons, Ltd., an unrelated third party, for an aggregate purchase
price of approximately $32.4 million. Pine Island Plaza consists of
approximately 24.5 acres of land with approximately 255,000 square feet of gross
leasable area, and is anchored by a Publix supermarket and Home Depot Expo.
Ridge Plaza consists of approximately 16.3 acres of land with approximately
155,000 square feet of gross leasable area, and is anchored by an AMC Theaters
and the administrative offices of Republic Security Bank. Pine Island Plaza and
Ridge Plaza are located on Pine Island Road and Interstate 595 in Davie, Broward
County, Florida. As of the date of the acquisition, Pine Island Plaza and Ridge
Plaza were 93.8% leased.

         The purchase price consisted of (i) a cash deposit in the amount of
$500,000, (ii) a cash payment of approximately $5.7 million and (iii) the
assumption of a first mortgage in favor of Banc One Mortgage Capital Markets
LLC, now known as Orix Capital, in the amount of $26.2 million. The Company
funded the cash portion of the consideration through borrowings under its
acquisition line of credit. The assumed mortgage bears interest at an annual
rate of 6.91%, and matures in June 2009. Pursuant to the terms of the mortgage,
the Company is required to maintain a $1.4 million letter of credit to guarantee
certain maintenance and repair obligations at the two properties.

         Reference is made to the Agreement for Purchase and Sale, a copy of
which is filed as an exhibit hereto, for additional information concerning the
terms and conditions of the Company's purchase of the properties.
