EVANS WITHYCOMBE RESIDENTIAL, L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 1997
(AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT FOR APARTMENT DATA, NUMBER OF UNITS OR SHARES AND
PER UNIT AMOUNTS)
(UNAUDITED)
1. ORGANIZATION AND FORMATION OF THE COMPANY
Evans Withycombe Residential, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership") is one of
the largest developers and managers of upscale apartment communities in
Arizona and is expanding its operations into selected sub-markets in Southern
California. The Operating Partnership owns and manages 51 stabilized
multifamily apartment communities containing 14,747 units, of which 44
stabilized multifamily apartment communities are located in Phoenix and
Tucson, Arizona, containing a total of 12,349 units and seven stabilized
multifamily apartment communities are located in the Southern California
market containing a total of 2,398 units. The Operating Partnership is also
in the process of developing or expanding four multifamily apartment
communities comprising 953 units in its Phoenix market. The Operating
Partnership is fully integrated with expertise in development, acquisitions,
construction and management of apartment communities. The Operating
Partnership had approximately 600 employees at September 30, 1997.
The Operating Partnership was formed in June 1994 to develop, acquire, own
and manage upscale multifamily apartment communities for Evans Withycombe
Residential, Inc. On August 17, 1994, Evans Withycombe Residential, Inc.
(the "Company") completed an Initial Public Offering and engaged in various
formation transactions designed to transfer ownership of the communities and
other assets of the predecessor company to the Operating Partnership or Evans
Withycombe Finance Partnership, L.P. (the "Financing Partnership"). The
Operating Partnership owns 99.0 percent of Evans Withycombe Finance, L.P. and
has a 99.0 percent economic interest in Evans Withycombe Management, Inc.
(the "Management Company"). Evans Withycombe Residential, Inc. is the sole
general partner of and owned a 81.9 percent and 79.3 percent interest in the
Operating Partnership at September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
In the second quarter of 1996, the Company completed the Second Public
Offering. The net proceeds of $40,891 from the sale of 2,088,889 shares of
common stock from the Second Public Offering were used to purchase 2,088,889
units in the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership used the
proceeds to repay a portion of the $150 million unsecured Revolving Credit
Facility (Revolving Credit Facility).
In the first quarter of 1997, the Company completed the Third Public
Offering. The net proceeds of $35,415 from the sale of 1,800,000 shares of
common stock from the Third Public Offering were used to purchase 1,800,000
units in the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership use the
proceeds to repay a portion of the Revolving Credit Facility.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Evans Withycombe
Residential, L.P. include the consolidated accounts of the Operating
Partnership, the Financing Partnership and the Management Company.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
presented by the Operating Partnership's management in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information
and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
(SEC). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of normally recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. The results of operations for the nine
month period ended September 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 1997.
Page 7 of 25
<PAGE>
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION (CONTINUED)
These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the Operating Partnership's December 31, 1996 audited consolidated financial
statements and accompanying notes in the Evans Withycombe Residential, L.P.
Annual Report on Form 10 /A.
RECLASSIFICATION
Certain amounts in the consolidated statements of income for 1996 have been
reclassified to conform to the 1997 presentation.
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
REAL ESTATE ASSETS AND DEPRECIATION
The Operating Partnership records its real estate assets in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting for
the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of".
SFAS No. 121 requires that long-lived assets such as real estate assets, be
reviewed whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the book
value of the asset may not be recoverable. If the sum of the estimated
future net cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) from an
asset to be held and used is less than the book value of the asset, an
impairment loss must be recognized in the amount of the difference between
book value and fair value as opposed to the difference between book value and
net realizable value under the previous accounting standard. For long-term
assets like apartment communities, the determination of whether there is an
impairment loss is dependent primarily on the Operating Partnership's
estimates on occupancy, rent and expense increases, which involves numerous
assumptions and judgments as to future events over a period of many years. At
September 30, 1997 the Operating Partnership does not hold any assets that
meet the impairment criteria of SFAS No. 121.
Costs related directly to the acquisition and improvement of real estate are
capitalized. Interest costs incurred during construction of a new property
are capitalized until completion of construction on a building-by-building
basis. Interest capitalized was $509 and $1,479 and $608 and $2,072, for the
three and the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
Ordinary repairs, maintenance and costs incurred in connection with resident
turnover such as unit cleaning, painting, and carpet cleaning are expensed as
incurred; major replacements and betterments are capitalized and depreciated
over their estimated useful lives. Depreciation is computed on a
straight-line basis over the expected useful lives of depreciable property,
which ranges from 10 to 40 years for buildings and improvements and five to
eight years for furnishings and equipment.
The Operating Partnership reports developments and lease-up properties as
construction-in-progress until construction on the apartment community has
been completed and the apartment community has reached stabilized occupancy.
The Operating Partnership also reports land relating to
construction-in-progress as land on its balance sheet. Land associated with
construction-in-progress was $8,272 and $12,060 at September 30, 1997 and
December 31, 1996, respectively.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Rental income attributable to residential leases is recorded when due from
residents. Leases are for periods of up to one year, with rental payments due
monthly.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash and cash equivalents include all cash and cash equivalent investments
with original maturities of three months or less, primarily consisting of
demand deposits in banks.
Page 8 of 25
<PAGE>
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
RESTRICTED CASH
Restricted cash includes restricted deposits held by third party
intermediaries for the purpose of completing an IRS Section 1031 tax free
exchange, sinking fund accounts related to tax exempt bonds, property taxes
and escrow accounts.
DEFERRED COSTS
Costs incurred in obtaining long-term financing are deferred. These costs are
amortized on the effective interest method over the terms of the related debt
agreements.
INCOME TAXES
The Operating Partnership has made an election to be taxed as a Partnership
and accordingly, no federal or state income taxes have been provided in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the
consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
EARNINGS PER UNIT
Earnings per unit has been computed by dividing net income for the three and
the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively, by the
weighted average number of units outstanding during the period.
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.
128, "Earnings per Share" which is required to be adopted on December 31,
1997. At that time, the Operating Partnership will be required to change the
method currently used to compute earnings per unit and to restate all prior
periods presented. Under the new requirements for calculating basic earnings
per unit, the dilutive effect of stock options will be excluded. The impact
of SFAS No. 128 is not expected to be material.
4. MORTGAGE NOTES RECEIVABLE
The Operating Partnership's mortgage notes receivable consists of a $7.2
million mortgage note receivable at a fixed rate of 8.0 percent secured by a
first mortgage lien on The Pines Apartments, matures November 1, 1997. The
mortgage note receivable maturity date can be extended 30 days to December 1,
1997 at the option of the borrower.

On June 13, 1997, the Operating Partnership amended its existing $225 million
Revolving Credit Facility with a bank group to decrease the commitment amount
from $225 million to $150 million and decrease the interest rate from LIBOR
plus 1.50 percent to LIBOR plus 1.15 percent. The Revolving Credit Facility
provides funding for working capital, construction activities and
acquisitions.
The Operating Partnership has three direct pay letters of credit of $17,500,
$22,800 and $24,400 which serve as a credit enhancement for the tax exempt
bonds. The letters of credit are secured by a first mortgage lien on four
apartment communities.
In January 1997, the Operating Partnership extinguished the debt on four
mortgages with unpaid principal balances of approximately $25,000 with
proceeds from the Revolving Credit Facility. As a result, the Operating
Partnership incurred a loss from the early extinguishment of debt of
approximately $1,500.

6. DISTRIBUTIONS
On October 15, 1997, the Operating Partnership paid a distribution of $0.38
per unit ($9,480) to unitholders of record as of September 30, 1997.

The Operating Partnership, through the Management Company, performs
management services for certain unaffiliated communities. Management fees
received from managed communities were $380 and $102 for the three months
ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 and $610 and $1,053 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The nine months ended
September 30, 1997 and 1996 balance includes a one time non-recurring $250

respectively.
8. STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
STOCK OPTION PLAN
The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB 25) and related
interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options because the
alternative fair value accounting provided for under SFAS No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," requires use of option valuation
models that were not developed for use in valuing employee stock options.
Under APB 25, because the exercise price of the Company's employee stock
options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant,
no compensation expense is recognized. Proforma information regarding net
income and earnings per share is required by SFAS No. 123 and is provided by
the Company in its annual report.
Initially 1,830,000 shares of the Company's common stock were reserved for
issuance under the plan. Information with respect to stock options granted
during the nine months ended September 30, 1997 is as follows:
Weighted
Average

------ ---------
Options outstanding at December 31, 1996 908,850 $20.63

Options exercisable:
December 31, 1996 357,700 $19.98
September 30, 1997 601,664 $20.40
Options to purchase 724,738 and 901,650 shares of common stock were available
for grant under the plan at September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996,
respectively.
EXECUTIVE STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
Prior to the Initial Public Offering, the Company's predecessor Evans
Withycombe, Inc. had in place an Executive Incentive Deferred Compensation
Plan (the "Executive Plan"). Pursuant to the Executive Plan, certain
executives of Evans Withycombe, Inc. (the "Participants") were granted an
aggregate of 98,500 shares of restricted stock from the Company one year
following the Initial Public Offering if they remained employees of the
Company during such period. One-third of the shares vest on each of the
second, third and fourth anniversaries of the Initial Public Offering based
on an offering price per share of $20. The expense is being amortized
ratably over the
Page 12 of 25
<PAGE>
periods in which the shares vest and an expense of $35 and $48 and $95 and
$360 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996,
respectively, is included in general and administrative expense. Information
with respect to the executive restricted stock incentive plan is as follows:

Number of shares vested at September 30, 1997 53,325
RESTRICTED STOCK PROGRAM
The Company has awarded 45,220 shares, net of forfeitures, of restricted
stock to certain employees of the Company under its 1994 Stock Incentive
Plan. The restricted stock vests ratably over periods ranging from one to
seven years from the date of the award and are based on the price of the
stock at the award date which ranges from $19.13 to $22.25. The related
expense will be amortized ratably over the periods in which the shares vest
and an expense of $92 and $34 and $168 and $66, for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively, is included in general and
administrative expense.
The Company uses the proceeds from the exercise of stock options and the
issuance of restricted stock to acquire a similar number of units in the
Operating Partnership.

Page 14 of 25
<PAGE>
(1) The Operating Partnership defines property operating and maintenance
expense as property and maintenance, real estate taxes and insurance.
(2) Stabilized properties only.
Rental revenues increased by $4,066 and $14,717 or 16.7 percent and 21.5
percent for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997 as compared to
the similar period in 1996 as a result of increases in the weighted average
number of apartments and the weighted average monthly revenue per occupied
apartment, and a change in economic occupancy. The Operating Partnership
believes that the increase in rental income was largely attributable to the
acquisitions and stabilization of properties developed by the Operating
Partnership in its rental markets.
Third party management fees increased $278 or 269.9 percent for the three
months ended September 30, 1997 as a result of a $250 gain on the sale of a
management contract and decreased $442 or 42.0 percent for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 due to the sale of several properties in the
management portfolio in 1996 including a $500 one time termination fee for
the sale of management contracts received in the second quarter of 1996.
Interest and other income for the three and nine months ended September 30,
1997 increased $765 and $1,182 or 51.5 percent and 25.9 percent as compared
to the similar period in 1996 as a result of an increase in ancillary income
related to the weighted average number of units, additional interest income
from funds held by third party intermediaries, and cable revenue sharing.
Property operating and maintenance expense increased due to the increase in
the weighted average number of apartments for the three and the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 as compared to the same period in 1996, respectively.
Interest expense increased due to an increase in debt resulting from
acquisitions and the increase in weighted average number of units in the
portfolio. The Operating Partnership capitalized $509 and $1,479 of interest
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997 compared to $608 and
$2,072 for the same periods in 1996 due to a decrease in construction
activity. Interest costs incurred during construction of a new property are
capitalized until completion of construction on a building-by-building basis.
"SAME STORE" PORTFOLIO
The Operating Partnership defines same store portfolio as those communities
that reached stabilized occupancy prior to January 1, 1996. Same store
portfolio consists of 38 stabilized properties containing 10,319 apartment
units that were owned by the Operating Partnership for the three months and
nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996. Same store portfolio was
adjusted to reflect the sale of Deer Creek Village, The Pines and Los Arboles
apartment communities.

Rental income for the three months ended September 30, 1997 increased $477
and decreased $319 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 as compared
to the same period in 1996 as a result of a change in the average economic
occupancy. Other income for the three and nine months ended September 30,
1997 increased as a result of higher ancillary income such as redecoration
and application fees, and lease termination fees.
COMMUNITIES STABILIZED LESS THAN TWO YEARS
Communities stabilized less than two years consist of the development of four
new apartment communities and the expansion of four existing apartment
communities by the Operating Partnership, containing an aggregate of 1,444
new apartment units that reached stabilized occupancy during the year ended
December 31, 1996. Increases in the three and nine month periods ended
September 30, 1997 as compared to the three and nine month periods ended
September 30, 1996 are the result of the increase in the weighted average
number of apartments.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
LIQUIDITY
The Operating Partnership's net cash provided by operating activities of
$30.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 decreased to $28.1
million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 as a result of cash
related to the sale of apartment communities being held by a third party
intermediary in order to complete a tax free exchange. Net cash used in
investing activities decreased from $103.4 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996 to $30.0 million for the nine months ended September 30,
1997. The decrease is the result of a reduction in construction activity for
the first nine months of 1997 of $32.5 million as compared to $66 million for
the first nine months of 1996 and a decrease in cash used to fund the
Operating Partnership's acquisition activity from $34.9 million to $17.5
million in the first nine months of 1996 as compared to the first nine months
of 1997 and the proceeds received from the sale of three apartment
communities. Net cash provided by financing activities decreased from $70.6
million for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 to $1.9 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 1997 due to less borrowings under the
Revolving Credit Facility as a result of the reduction in construction and
acquisition activity.
Page 17 of 25
<PAGE>
The Operating Partnership expects to meet its short-term liquidity
requirements, including capital expenditures relating to maintaining
Stabilized Communities, generally through its net cash provided by operations
and borrowings under its credit arrangements and anticipates meeting
long-term liquidity requirements, such as scheduled debt maturities,
financing of construction and development activities and possible
acquisitions through long-term unsecured borrowings, issuance of additional
equity securities of the Operating Partnership or debt securities of the
Operating Partnership, or, possibly in connection with acquisitions of land
or existing properties, issuance of Units of the Operating Partnership. The
Operating Partnership believes that its net cash provided by operations will
be adequate and anticipates that it will continue to be adequate to meet both
operating requirements and payment of dividends by the Operating Partnership
in accordance with the Company's REIT requirements in both the short and the
long term.
The information in the immediately preceding paragraph is forward looking and
involves risks and uncertainties that could significantly impact the
Operating Partnership's expected liquidity requirements in the short and long
term. While it is impossible to itemize the many factors and specific events
that could affect the Operating Partnership's outlook for its liquidity
requirements, such factors would include the actual timing of the Operating
Partnership's planned development of new, and expansion of existing,
communities; acquisitions of existing apartment communities; the actual costs
associated with such developments and acquisitions; the strength of the local
economies in the sub-markets in which the Operating Partnership operates and
the culmination of its pending merger with EROP. The Operating Partnership
is further subject to risks relating to the limited geographic area in which
it operates and its ability to successfully manage its planned expansion into
Southern California, a market in which it did not have any operating history
prior to 1995. Higher than expected costs, delays in development of
communities, a downturn in the local economies and/or the lack of growth of
such economies could reduce the Operating Partnership's revenues and increase
its expenses, resulting in a greater burden on the Operating Partnership's
liquidity than that which the Operating Partnership has described above.
CAPITAL RESOURCES
At September 30, 1997, the Operating Partnership's total debt was
approximately $442.2 million and the Operating Partnership's debt to total
market capitalization (Market Equity plus Debt) was approximately 40.2
percent. The Operating Partnership received an investment grade security
rating of "BBB-" from Standard & Poor's Corporation, "Baa3" from Moody's
Investors Service, Inc., and " BBB-" from Fitch Investors Service, L.P. in
December 1996 with respect to prospective issuances of senior unsecured debt.
A security rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and
may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating
organization, and each rating should be evaluated independently of any other
rating. A rating of (a) BBB- from Standard & Poor's Corporation indicates
that the obligations of the Operating Partnership are in the lower range of
those obligations that exhibit adequate protection parameters, (b) Baa3 from
Moody's Investors Service, Inc. indicates that the obligations of the
Operating Partnership are considered to be in the lower range of medium-grade
obligations, which are not considered to be highly protected or poorly
secured and (c) BBB- from Fitch Investors Service, L.P. indicates that the
obligations of the Operating Partnership are considered to be in the lower
range of obligations considered to be of investment grade and of satisfactory
credit quality and that its ability to pay interest and to repay principal is
considered to be adequate.
CONVENTIONAL MORTGAGE LOANS
Conventional mortgage loans are comprised of one fixed rate loan at September
30, 1997 which is collateralized by a first mortgage lien on an apartment
community included in real estate assets. The mortgage is payable in monthly
installments of principal and interest and matures on August 17, 2004. The
conventional mortgage loan aggregated $18.2 million at September 30, 1997
with an interest rate of 6.5 percent. In January 1997, the Operating
Partnership extinguished the debt on four mortgages with unpaid principal
balances of approximately $25.0 million with proceeds from the Revolving
Credit Facility. As a result, the Operating Partnership incurred a loss from
the early extinguishment of debt of approximately $1.5 million. On July 15,
1997, the Operating Partnership repaid two additional mortgages with unpaid
principal balances of approximately $15.2 million with proceeds from the
Revolving Credit Facility. There were no prepayment penalties associated
with the repayment of these two mortgages.
Page 18 of 25
<PAGE>
In December 1995, the Operating Partnership entered into a ten year $50
million fixed rate loan from an insurance company that bears interest at 7.17
percent, with principal and interest due monthly based on a 25-year
amortization schedule beginning January 1, 1996 through January 1, 2006, and
the remaining unpaid principal balance due January 1, 2006. The loan is
secured by a first deed of trust on five apartment communities. Proceeds
from the loan were used to pay down the outstanding balances on the Revolving
Credit Facility. The outstanding debt was $49.1 million at September 30,
1997. The loan is convertible to unsecured upon the Operating Partnership
achieving an investment grade rating of BBB or better.
MORTGAGE LOAN CERTIFICATES
The Operating Partnership, through the Financing Partnership, borrowed $102.0
million under a securitized loan in August 1994. During January 1995, the
Operating Partnership borrowed the balance of $29.0 million (increasing the
total to $131.0 million). The loan is secured by the first mortgage liens on
21 Communities. The $102.0 million was issued at 99.97 percent of its face
amount and the $29.0 million was issued at 97.9375 percent of its face amount
and will mature on August 1, 2001. Although both amounts bear interest at
7.98 percent, the $29.0 million has an effective interest rate of 8.40
percent due to the discount. The weighted average effective interest rate of
the total $131 million loan is 8.05 percent. The bonds have been rated "AA"
by Standard & Poor's.
In March 1997, the Operating Partnership substituted two apartment
communities, Sonoran and The Heritage, as collateral for the securitized loan
in exchange for releasing the liens on three apartment communities, The Pines
and Deer Creek Village, which were sold in June 1997, and La Valencia.
SENIOR UNSECURED NOTES
On April 2, 1997, the Operating Partnership completed the sale of $75
million senior unsecured notes priced at 99.44 percent of par with a coupon
rate of 7.50 percent due April 15, 2004 and $50 million senior unsecured
notes priced at 99.21 percent of par with a coupon rate of 7.625 percent due
April 15, 2007. Proceeds to the Operating Partnership from the sale of the
notes, net of underwriter's discount and out-of-pocket costs, was
approximately $122.8 million. In anticipation of the Offering, the Operating
Partnership entered into two forward treasury lock agreements on February 25,
1997. The treasury lock agreements were settled concurrently with the
completion of the sale of the senior unsecured notes on April 2, 1997, and
the Operating Partnership received proceeds from the settlement of the
treasury lock agreements of approximately $3 million. The Operating
Partnership is amortizing the gain on the settlement of the treasury lock
transaction as a reduction in interest expense on the notes using the
effective interest rate method. The effective interest rates on the senior
unsecured notes inclusive of the benefit from the settlement of the treasury
lock transaction is 7.18 percent and 7.36 percent, respectively. The
Operating Partnership used the proceeds from the sale of the notes and
settlement of the treasury lock transaction to pay down its Revolving Credit
Facility.
TAX EXEMPT BONDS
Tax exempt bonds were comprised of three floating rate bonds based on the tax
exempt note rate set by the respective remarketing agents (or, at the option
of the Operating Partnership at a fixed rate determined by the remarketing
agents). The bonds are secured by letters of credit which are secured by
first mortgage liens on four apartment communities. The tax exempt bonds
have monthly interest only payments and mature at various dates through 2016.
The tax exempt bonds aggregated $64.0 million at September 30, 1997 with
interest rates ranging from 5.29 percent to 5.61 percent.
REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY
On June 13, 1997, the Operating Partnership amended its existing $225 million
unsecured Revolving Credit Facility with a bank group to decrease the
commitment amount from $225 million to $150 million and decrease the interest
rate from a floating rate of London Inter Bank Offered Rate (LIBOR ) plus 150
basis points (100 basis points equals one percent) to 115 basis points (or,
at the option of the Operating Partnership, at the prime rate announced by
the banks). The Revolving Credit Facility has a term of three years which
expires in September 1999, with an option to extend for one year and provides
for monthly payments of interest only. It will be used to
Page 19 of 25
<PAGE>
finance acquisitions, to fund construction and development and renovation
costs, and for working capital purposes. At September 30, 1997, there was
$56.0 million outstanding on the Revolving Credit Facility, with an effective
interest rate of 6.92 percent. The Revolving Credit Facility contains
customary representations, covenants and events of default, including a
limitation which restricts dividends to 95 percent of Funds From Operations,
as defined. The Operating Partnership does not expect that the covenants
will affect its ability to pay dividends in accordance with its current
dividend policy or the Company's ability to maintain a REIT status.
The table below outlines the Operating Partnership's debt structure as of
September 30, 1997.

The Operating Partnership had 6,164 unencumbered apartment units related to

the Communities Under Construction and in Lease-Up at September 30, 1997.
SUBSEQUENT OFFERINGS
On May 28, 1996, the Company completed the Second Public Offering of
4,500,000 shares of its Common Stock of which 2,000,000 shares were sold by
the Company and an aggregate of 2,500,000 were sold by two institutional
stockholders. On June 25, 1996, the underwriters exercised their
over-allotment option for 200,000 shares and the Company issued an additional
88,889 shares of its Common Stock and the institutional stockholders sold an
additional 111,111 shares pursuant to a partial exercise of the
over-allotment option granted to the underwriters. Net proceeds to the
Company from the Second Public Offering were approximately $40,891,000. The
Company used the proceeds from the sale of Common Stock to purchase 2,088,889
units in the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership used the
proceeds to pay down its Revolving Credit Facility.
In January 1997, the Company filed a shelf registration statement with the
SEC for up to $125 million of common stock, preferred stock and warrants
issuable by the Company and $200 million of debt securities issuable by the
Operating Partnership. The registration statement, which has been declared
effective by the SEC includes $125 million of available securities under the
September 1995 registration statement. These registration statements provide
the Company with the ability to issue and sell a portion of such securities
from time to time.
On February 14, 1997, the Company completed the Third Public Offering of
1,800,000 shares of its Common Stock. Net proceeds to the Company from the
February 1997 Offering were approximately $35,415,000. The Company used the
proceeds from the sale of Common Stock to purchase 1,800,000 units in the
Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership used the proceeds to pay
down its Revolving Credit Facility.

INFLATION
Most of the leases at the communities are for a term of one year or less,
which may enable the Operating Partnership to seek increased rents upon
renewal of existing leases or commencement of new leases. The short-term
nature of the leases generally serves to reduce the risk to the Operating
Partnership of the adverse effects of inflation.
FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS
The Operating Partnership and industry analysts consider Funds from
Operations ("FFO") to be an appropriate measure of the performance of an
equity REIT because it is predicated on cash flow analyses. The Operating
Partnership computes FFO in accordance with standards established by the
National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"). FFO is
defined as net income (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP, excluding
gains (or losses) from debt restructuring and sales of property plus
depreciation and amortization, excluding depreciation on non-real estate
assets and amortization of deferred financing costs. Funds from Operations
should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in
accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of the Operating Partnership's
financial performance or to cash flow from operating activities (determined
in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of the Operating Partnership's needs.
The Operating Partnership believes that in order to facilitate a clear
understanding of the consolidated historical operating results of the
Operating Partnership, FFO should be examined in conjunction with net income,
as presented in the consolidated financial statements and elsewhere in this
document.

CAPITALIZATION OF FIXED ASSETS AND COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENTS.
The Operating Partnership has established a policy of capitalizing those
expenditures relating to acquiring new assets, materially enhancing the value
of an existing asset, or substantially extending the useful life of an
existing asset. All expenditures necessary to maintain a community in
ordinary operating condition are expensed as incurred.

The information set forth in the table above is based upon a number of
estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to business, economic
and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the
Operating Partnership's control. The actual development cost, completion
date and stabilization date of any project will be dependent upon a variety
of factors beyond the control of the Operating Partnership including, for
example, labor and other personnel costs, material costs, weather conditions,
government fees and leasing rates.
DISPOSITION ACTIVITY
During the second quarter of 1997, the Operating Partnership sold two
properties, Deer Creek Village and The Pines, containing 502 apartment units.
The aggregate sales price was approximately $22.4 million resulting in a gain
from the sale of approximately $5.2 million. The Operating Partnership
received cash of approximately $7.3 million and two carryback mortgage notes
of approximately $15.1 million. The $7.9 million mortgage note on Deer Creek
Village was paid off on July 23, 1997. The mortgage note is secured by a
first deed of trust on The Pines property and matures in November 1997. The
buyer may repay the remaining mortgage note at anytime without prepayment
penalties. The mortgage note receivable maturity date can be extended 30 days
to December 1, 1997 at the option of the borrower.

<PAGE>
On September 30, 1997, the Operating Partnership sold Los Arboles Apartments,
a 232 unit apartment community located in Chandler, Arizona. The aggregate
proceeds were approximately $12.5 million resulting in a gain from the sale
of approximately $2.3 million. In connection with the sale, the Operating
Partnership sold the management contract on an adjoining apartment community,
Los Arboles II and received payment of the unpaid principal balance and
accrued interest on the mortgage note on that property.
