Independent Auditor’s Report

To the Board of Trustees of Investors Real Estate Trust

     We have audited the accompanying Consolidated Historical Summary of Gross Income and Direct Operating Expenses of T. F. James Company and Subsidiary (“Historical Summary”) for the year ended September 30, 2002. This Consolidated Historical Summary is the responsibility of the management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Historical Summary based on our audit.

     We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Consolidated Historical Summary is free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the Consolidated Historical Summary. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the Consolidated Historical Summary. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

     The accompanying Consolidated Historical Summary was prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission as described in Note 3, and is not intended to be a complete presentation of T. F. James Company and Subsidiary revenue and expenses.

     In our opinion, the Consolidated Historical Summary referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the gross income and direct operating expenses described in Note 3 of T. F. James Company and Subsidiary for the year ended September 30, 2002, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

T. F. James Company and Subsidiary Notes to Consolidated Historical Summary of Gross Income and Direct Operating Expenses for the Year Ended September 30, 2002

     
Note 1.   Nature of Business
    T. F. James Company is a privately held Iowa corporation primarily engaged in the development and ownership of retail and commercial real estate in Minnesota and surrounding states. The company office is located at 21500 Highway 7, Greenwood, Minnesota. The company owns and manages approximately 52 retail and commercial real estate properties containing approximately 807,154 square feet of rentable space as well as eight underdeveloped or primarily vacant parcels of real estate. IRET-Westlake, Inc., formerly known as Westlake Liquor, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary, is engaged in retail sales of offsale liquors. On February 1, 2003, the T. F. James Company and Subsidiary merged into IRET, Inc., the wholly owned subsidiary of Investors Real Estate Trust
     
Note 2.   Principles of Consolidation
    The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation
     
Note 3.   Basis of Presentation
    IRET, Inc., purchased T. F. James Company February 1, 2003. The historical summary has been prepared for the purpose of complying with Regulation S-X, Rule 3-14 of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), which requires certain information with respect to real estate operations acquired to be included with certain filings with the SEC. This historical summary includes the historical gross income and direct operating expenses of T. F. James Company, exclusive of the following expenses, which may not be comparable to the proposed future operations:
     
    (a) depreciation of property and equipment
    (b) professional expenses
    (c) certain salary and benefits
    (d) revenues and expenses of property not acquired
    (e) trustee fees
    (f) various administrative expenses
     
Note 4.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
    Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates
     
    Capitalization Policy — Expenditures for renewals and improvements that significantly add to the productive capacity or extend the useful life of an asset are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs, which do not add to the value or extend useful lives, are charged to expense as incurred
     
    Revenue Recognition — Rental revenue is recognized on the straight-line basis, which averages minimum rents over the terms of the leases. All leases are classified as operating leases and expire at various dates prior to April 4, 2027. The following is a schedule by years of future actual minimum rents receivable on non-cancelable operating leases in effect as of September 30, 2002.
