Note 5.  Real Estate Held for Sale:
         -------------------------

On September 17, 1996, the Partnership entered into a purchase and sale
agreement for the sale of the Partnership's property in Louisville, Kentucky,
leased to Winn-Dixie Stores, Inc. ("Winn-Dixie") for $1,100,000. less selling
costs, which includes a 5% brokerage commission. Completion of the transaction
is subject to completion of certain due diligence procedures and the ability of
the buyer to obtain financing within 120 days. Accordingly, there can be no
assurance that the sale of the property will be completed. The Winn-Dixie lease
provides annual rentals of $102,000 and is scheduled to expire in December 1999.

On October 17, 1996, Kobacker Stores, Inc. ("Kobacker") exercised options under
the terms of its leases for properties in Eastlake and Cleveland, Ohio to
purchase such properties for stated purchase prices of $165,000 and $200,000,
respectively. After using a portion of the proceeds to make a partial prepayment
on the mortgage loan collateralized by the Kobacker properties, the Partnership
received net proceeds of $215,706. As a result of the sale and the related
mortgage prepayment, Kobacker's annual rent and debt service on the mortgage
loan will decrease by $36,225 and approximately $29,000, respectively.

                Item 2. - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION OF OPERATIONS
                -----------------------------------------------


Results of Operations:
- ---------------------

     Although net income for the nine-month period ended September 30, 1996
reflected a decrease as compared to with the same period ended September 30,
1995, such decrease was due to an extraordinary charge of $255,000 incurred in
connection with paying off a mortgage loan in the second quarter of 1996 and
$161,000 of nonrecurring other income which was earned during the first and
second quarters of 1995. Excluding the effects of these items, income for the
comparable periods would have reflected an increase of $231,000. Net income for
the comparable three-month period ended September 30, 1996 increased by $66,000.

     The increases in income excluding the effect of nonrecurring items, are
primarily attributable to decreases in interest and depreciation expenses. The
decrease in interest expense is due to the continuing amortization of principal
of the Partnership's mortgage loans and the benefit realized from refinancing,
at a lower rate of interest, the limited recourse loan collateralized by the
Partnership's property leased to The Gap, Inc. (the "Gap") in April 1996.
Depreciation decreased due to the full depreciation of certain components as the
Partnership uses component life depreciation methods. Lease revenues for the
comparable periods were stable.

     The extraordinary charge in 1996 was due to prepayment charges incurred in
connection with paying off an existing mortgage on the Gap property. As a result
of refinancing the mortgage loan, annual debt service on the property will
decrease by $143,000. Nonrecurring other income in 1995 consisted of a
concession of $42,000 allowed by a vendor in the first quarter and $119,000
received as a bankruptcy settlement in the second quarter from a claim against
Storage Technology Corporation relating to its lease with the Partnership which
was terminated in 1987 pursuant to an order of the bankruptcy court.


Financial Condition:
- -------------------

     There has been no material change in the Partnership's financial condition
since December 31, 1995. The decrease in the Partnership's cash balances is
directly attributable to the cost of paying off the mortgage loan on the Gap
property. Cash flow from operations was sufficient to fund payments of scheduled
installments of mortgage debt and distributions to partners.

     In the event that the sale of the Partnership's property leased to Winn-
Dixie Stores, Inc. ("Winn-Dixie") is completed, annual cash flow would decrease
by $102,400; however, the anticipated proceeds from such proposed sale, net of
costs, is approximately $1,000,000. Completion of the sale is subject to certain
contingencies, including the ability of the purchaser to obtain financing. As a
result of the sale of two properties leased to Kobacker Stores, Inc.
("Kobacker") in October 1996, the Partnership received approximately $216,000
after a partial prepayment on the loan collateralized by the Kobacker
properties. Annual rent from the Kobacker leases will decrease by $36,000, and
the Partnership's annual debt service obligation will decrease by $29,000.

     One of the Partnership's leases with IMO Industries, Inc. ("IMO") had
originally been scheduled to terminate in March 1996. The lease was extended
through July 1996 to enable IMO to meet its lease obligation to return the
property to the Partnership in suitable condition. Until IMO makes the necessary
repairs or makes some other arrangement acceptable to the Partnership, the
Partnership will require IMO to continue paying rent. All rents from IMO are
current. Annual rentals from this IMO lease are $91,000.

     The General Partners are currently investigating ways to provide liquidity
for limited partners on a tax-effective basis.
