ITEM 4.  CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT

         Effective July 1, 2003, the Board of Directors of Income Opportunity
Realty Investors, Inc. ("IOT") engaged the Plano, Texas firm of Farmer, Fuqua
and Huff, P.C. as the independent accountant to audit IOT's financial
statements. During the Registrant's two most recent fiscal years, and any
subsequent interim period, IOT did not consult with Farmer, Fuqua and Huff, P.C.
or any of its members about the application of accounting principles to any
specified transaction or any other matter. The decision to change accountants
was approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of IOT consisting
of Messrs. Ted P. Stokley, Earl D. Cecil and Martin L. White.

         The engagement effective July 1, 2003, of Farmer, Fuqua and Huff, P.C.
as a new independent accountant for IOT necessarily results in the termination
or dismissal of the principal accountant which audited IOT's financial
statements in the past two fiscal years ended December 31, 2001 and 2002, BDO
Seidman, LLP. BDO Seidman, LLP made a fee proposal estimate to IOT for 2003
which was greater than the fee proposal of Farmer, Fuqua & Huff, P.C. for the
same work. During the Registrant's two most recent fiscal years and the
subsequent interim period through July 1, 2003, there were no disagreements
between the Registrant and BDO Seidman, LLP concerning any matter of accounting
principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or
procedure which disagreements, if not resolved to BDO Seidman, LLP's
satisfaction, would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter of
the disagreement in connection with their report; there were no reportable
events as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

         BDO Seidman, LLP's reports dated March 11, 2002 and March 21, 2003 on
IOT's financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2002 did
not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they
qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.
Each report did contain an "emphasis" paragraph highlighting that management has
indicated its intent to both sell income producing properties and refinance or
extend debt secured by real estate, to meet its liquidity needs.

         IOT provided BDO Seidman, LLP with a copy of the foregoing disclosures
and requested from BDO Seidman, LLP a letter addressed to the Commission stating
whether BDO Seidman, LLP agrees with the statements made by IOT in response to
Item 304(a) of Regulation S-K and if not; stating the respects in which it does
not agree. BDO Seidman, LLP's letter is attached as an exhibit to this report as
Exhibit 16.1.

ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS AND REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE

         Effective June 30, 2003, that certain Advisory Agreement dated as of
October 15, 1998 between IOT and Basic Capital Management, Inc. ("BCM") was
terminated by mutual agreement. BCM had served as IOT's advisor since March
1989. BCM is a Nevada corporation in which Messrs. Mark W. Branigan (Executive
Vice President - Residential), Louis J. Corna (Executive Vice President - Tax)
and Ronald E. Kimbrough (acting Principal Executive Officer, Executive Vice
President and Chief Financial Officer) are executive officers.

         On July 1, 2003, IOT entered into an Advisory Agreement with Syntek
West, Inc. ("SWI"), the owner and holder of approximately 54.3% of the



                                       2


shares of Common Stock of IOT presently outstanding. All of the issued and
outstanding Common Stock of SWI is owned by Gene E. Phillips. The Advisory
Agreement dated July 1, 2003 (the "Advisory Agreement") between IOT and SWI
contains the same terms as the prior Advisory Agreement with BCM. A copy of the
Advisory Agreement dated July 1, 2003 between IOT and SWI is attached as an
exhibit. There has been no change in the officers or directors (except Henry A.
Butler) of IOT who continue in the same capacities under the Advisory Agreement.

         The directors and principal officers of SWI are:

             Gene E. Phillips      Director, Chief Executive Officer and
                                   President

             Ken L. Joines         Director, Vice President, Treasurer and
                                   Secretary

         On July 1, 2003, Henry A. Butler, a director since December 2001,
resigned as a member of the Board of Directors. Mr. Butler continues as a
broker-land sales of BCM. Mr. Butler has not furnished IOT with any letter
describing any disagreement or requesting that any disclosure be made.

         Also on July 1, 2003, the remaining directors, Earl D. Cecil, Ted P.
Stokley and Martin L. White elected Ken L. Joines as a director of IOT to fill
the vacancy created by the resignation of Henry A. Butler. Ken L. Joines is a
Director, Vice President and Secretary of SWI. Mr. Joines is also a Director and
Secretary of First Equity Properties, Inc., a Nevada corporation, which has a
class of equity securities registered pursuant to Section 12(g) under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
