&amp; Steers Total Return Realty Fund, Inc. and its subsidiary (the &#8220;Fund&#8221;) as
of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, in </font><font face=Georgia lang=EN-GB style="font-size:10.0pt;line-height:12.0pt;">accordance with the
standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States)
(PCAOB), we considered the Fund&#8217;s internal control over financial reporting,
including controls over safeguarding securities, as a basis for designing our
auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the
consolidated financial statements and to comply with the requirements of Form
N-CEN, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of
the Fund&#8217;s internal control over financial reporting.&#160; Accordingly, we do not
express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund's internal control over
financial reporting.</font></p>

<p style="margin-bottom:12.0pt;margin-left:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-top:0in;"><font face=Georgia lang=EN-GB style="font-size:10.0pt;line-height:12.0pt;">The management of the Fund is responsible
for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial
reporting. In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments by
management are required to assess the expected benefits and related costs of
controls. A company&#8217;s internal control over financial reporting is a process
designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial
reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company&#8217;s internal
control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that
(1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail,
accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets
of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded
as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles,
and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in
accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and
(3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of
unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of a company&#8217;s assets that could
have a material effect on the financial statements.</font></p>

<p style="margin-bottom:12.0pt;margin-left:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-top:0in;"><font face=Georgia lang=EN-GB style="font-size:10.0pt;line-height:12.0pt;">Because of its inherent limitations,
internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.
Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are
subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in
conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures
may deteriorate.</font></p>

<p style="margin-bottom:12.0pt;margin-left:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-top:0in;"><font face=Georgia lang=EN-GB style="font-size:10.0pt;line-height:12.0pt;">A deficiency in internal control over
financial reporting exists when the design or operation of a control does not
allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their
assigned functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. A
material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in
internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable
possibility that a material misstatement of the company&#8217;s annual or interim
financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.&#160; </font></p>

of the Fund&#8217;s internal control over financial reporting was for the limited
purpose described in the first paragraph and would not necessarily disclose all
deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that might be
material weaknesses under standards established by the PCAOB. However, we noted
