                           Cinco Ranch Shopping Center
                   Notes to Historical Summary of Gross Income
                          and Direct Operating Expenses
              for the Period from June 4, 2003 through May 31, 2004


(1)    BUSINESS

       The Cinco Ranch Shopping Center (the Property) is located in Katy, Texas.
       The property consists of approximately 97,297 square feet of gross
       leasable area and was 100% occupied at May 31, 2004. On July 1, 2004,
       AmREIT acquired the property for $15.5 million.

(2)    BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND COMBINATION

       The Historical Summary of Gross Income and Direct Operating Expenses
       (Historical Summary) has been prepared for the purpose of complying with
       Rule 3-14 of the Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X and
       for inclusion in AmREIT's filing on Form 8-K, and is not intended to be a
       complete presentation of the Property's revenues and expenses. The seller
       purchased the Property on June 4, 2003. The Historical Summary has been
       prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. Management of the Property
       is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
       amounts of the revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
       results may differ from those estimates.

 (3)   GROSS INCOME

       The Property leases retail space under various lease agreements with its
       tenants. All leases are accounted for as operating leases. The leases
       include provisions under which the Property is reimbursed for common area
       maintenance, real estate taxes, and insurance costs. Revenue related to
       these reimbursed costs is recognized in the period the applicable costs
       are incurred and billed to tenants pursuant to the lease agreements.
       Certain leases contain renewal options at various periods at various
       rental rates. Certain of the leases contain provisions for contingent
       rentals. No contingent rent was earned during the period from June 4,
       2003 through May 31, 2004.

       Although certain leases may provide for tenant occupancy during periods
       for which no rent is due and/or increases exist in minimum lease payments
       over the term of the lease, rental income is recognized for the full
       period of occupancy on a straight-line basis.

       The weighted average remaining lease term for the project is 14 years.
       Minimum rents to be received from tenants under operating leases,
       exclusive of common area maintenance reimbursements, which were $187
       thousand for the period from June 4, 2003 through May 31, 2004, are as
       follows:

                    2005                    $ 1,218,461
                    2006                      1,207,697
                    2007                      1,081,057
                    2008                      1,064,256
                    2009                      1,013,050
                    Thereafter                8,546,056
                                            -----------
                          Total             $14,130,577
                                            ===========


                                       7


       Adjustments to record rental income on a straight line basis increased
       gross income by $24 thousand during the period from June 4, 2003 through
       May 31, 2004. Additionally, adjustments to rental income increased gross
       income by $6 thousand for such period due to adjustments to reflect
       rental income at market rates related to leases acquired through
       acquisition.

       As of May 31, 2004, 63,373 square feet was leased to one tenant, Kroger,
       under a noncancelable lease that expires June 3, 2023. This tenant
       accounted for approximately 42% of rental revenue during the period from
       June 4, 2003 through May 31, 2004.

(4)    DIRECT OPERATING EXPENSES

       Direct operating expenses include only those costs expected to be
       comparable to the proposed future operations of the Property. Repairs and
       maintenance expenses are charged to operations as incurred. Costs such as
       depreciation and amortization are excluded from the Historical Summary.

(5)    RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

       During the period from June 4, 2003 through May 31, 2004, management fees
       and leasing commissions of $37,340 and $16,380, respectively, were paid
       or incurred. Such amounts were paid or owed to various entities related
       to the owner of the Property either by common ownership or control.
       Payments and amounts due to related parties represent amounts due under
       contracts for different services provided by the related party.

(6)    PROJECT FINANCING

       In June 2003, a $8,720,000 non-recourse note payable was entered into
       with a lender, secured by the Property. The note requires monthly
       installment payments of principal and interest through its maturity on
       July 10, 2013, at the fixed interest rate of 5.6%, based on a 30-year
       amortization. The Property is pledged as security under the terms of the
       note payable. The loan may not be prepaid before July 10, 2008 and
       requires prepayment fees of 5%, 4%, 3%, 2%, and 1% if it is prepaid
       during the sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, or tenth year, respectively. In
       connection with the July 2004 acquisition of the Property by AmREIT, this
       note was assumed.

       Adjustments to record rental income on a straight line basis increased
       gross income by $44 thousand during the period from June 4, 2003 through
       May 31, 2004. Additionally, adjustments to rental income decreased

                                       11


       gross income by $66 thousand for such period due to adjustments to
       reflect rental income at market rates related to leases acquired through
       acquisition at other than market rates.

       As of May 31, 2004, 68,658 square feet was leased to one tenant, Kroger,
       under a noncancelable lease that expires August 31, 2021. This tenant
       accounted for approximately 41% of rental revenue during the period from
       June 4, 2003 through May 31, 2004.

(4)    DIRECT OPERATING EXPENSES

       Direct operating expenses include only those costs expected to be
       comparable to the proposed future operations of the Property. Repairs and
       maintenance expenses are charged to operations as incurred. Costs such as
       depreciation and amortization are excluded from the Historical Summary.

(5)    RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

       During the period from June 4, 2003 through May 31, 2004, management fees
       and leasing commissions of $75,462 and $14,712, respectively, were paid
       or incurred. Such amounts were paid or owed to various entities related
       to the owner of the Property either by common ownership or control.
       Payments and amounts due to related parties represent amounts due under
       contracts for different services provided by the related party.

(6)    PROJECT FINANCING

       In June 2003, a $18,430,000 non-recourse note payable was entered into
       with a lender, secured by the Property. The note requires monthly
       installment payments of principal and interest through its maturity on
       July 10, 2013, at the fixed interest rate of 5.6%, based on a 30-year
       amortization. The Property is pledged as security under the terms of the
       note payable. The loan may not be prepaid before July 10, 2008 and
       requires prepayment fees of 5%, 4%, 3%, 2%, and 1% if it is prepaid
       during the sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, or tenth year, respectively. In
       connection with the July 2004 acquisition of the Property by AmREIT, this
       note was assumed.

The following pro forma financial statements have been prepared to provide pro
forma information with regards to the properties described below (the
"Properties") which AmREIT (the "Company") acquired from an unrelated third
party.

On July 1, 2004, the Company acquired Plaza in the Park Shopping Center, a
129,955 square-foot Kroger anchored shopping center located on approximately
14.3 acres. The property is located in Houston, Texas and is 96.7% occupied.
Also on July 1, 2004, the Company acquired Cinco Ranch Shopping Center, a 97,297
square-foot Kroger anchored shopping center located on approximately 12.8 acres
of land. The property is located in Katy, Texas and is 100% occupied.

The unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet presents the
historical financial information of the Company as of June 30, 2004 as adjusted
for the acquisition of the Properties which are assumed to have occurred on
June 30, 2004.

The unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the
year ended December 31, 2003 and the six months ended June 30, 2004 combine the
historical operations of the Company with the gross income and direct operating
expenses of the Properties and are presented as if the acquisitions of the
Properties occurred on January 1, 2003.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared by the Company's management based upon the historical financial
statements of the Company and of the Properties. These pro forma statements may
not be indicative of the results that actually would have occurred if the
combination had been in effect on the dates indicated or which may be obtained
in the future. In management's opinion, all adjustments necessary to reflect the
effects of the property acquisitions have been made. These unaudited pro forma
condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the historical financial statements included in the Company's previous filings
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

                                   (UNAUDITED)


(1)  Reflects the historical condensed consolidated balance sheet of the Company
     as of June 30, 2004. Please refer to the AmREIT's historical consolidated
     financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Quarterly
     Report on Form 10-QSB for the six months ended June 30, 2004.

(2)  Reflects the acquisition of the Properties. The aggregate purchase price
     was $48.5 million and was allocated among land, buildings, tenant
     improvements, above- and below-market leases and intangible lease costs
     pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, Business
     Combinations (SFAS No. 141). The buildings are depreciated over a period of
     39 years.

(3)  In conjunction with the acquisition of the Properties, the Company assumed
     $26.8 million of secured debt with a fixed rate of 5.6%. Additionally,
     $21.7 million of the acquisition consideration was funded through the
     Company's credit facility (rate of 3.375% on the acquisition date). The
     terms of the debt assumed approximated market on the date of the
     acquisition; accordingly, no adjustments were made to the carrying value of
     the debt in allocating the purchase price of the Properties.
