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 by May 15, 1997.  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.



Note 6.  Property Leased to IMO Industries, Inc.:
         --------------------------------------- 

One of the Partnership's leases with IMO Industries, Inc. ("IMO") had been
scheduled to terminate in March 1996.  The Partnership granted IMO an extension
of three months to enable IMO to meet its lease obligation to return the
property in suitable condition.  As IMO did not satisfy such obligation, the
Partnership refused to release IMO from the lease and continued to collect
monthly rental payments from IMO.  On February 12, 1997, the Partnership and IMO
entered into an agreement which released IMO from the lease.  Under the
agreement, IMO returned the property in "as is" condition to the Partnership,
and paid $485,766, representing estimated maintenance and repair costs and
construction management fees, into an escrow account held by an affiliate for
the Partnership.  Funds in escrow will only be released under certain conditions
including, but not limited to, the payment for repairs and maintenance on the
property.  Any excess funds will be released to the Partnership.

Rents from the terminated IMO lease contributed annual revenues of approximately
$91,000.  The Partnership's lease with IMO for an adjacent property currently
provides for annual rent of $687,750 and has a lease term through 2002.

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



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

   Net income for the three months ended March 31, 1997 increased $72,000 as
compared to net income for the three months ended March 31, 1996.  The increase
was primarily due to a decrease in interest expense.  The decrease in interest
expense was due to refinancing the limited recourse mortgage loan collateralized
by the property leased to The Gap, Inc. in April 1996 at a lower interest rate
and the effect of a $100,000 mortgage loan prepayment in the fourth quarter of
1996 on one of the IMO Industries, Inc. properties.    Such prepayment was paid
with funds which were released from an escrow account and assigned to the IMO
mortgage lender.  Lease revenues for the three month periods were stable.  The
slight decrease in revenues was due to lower rentals from Kobacker Stores, Inc.
as a result of selling two Kobacker properties to the lessee in 1996 and the
termination of the lease on one of the IMO properties in February 1997.  The
decrease in annual cash flow (rent less debt service) from the Kobacker
properties is approximately $3,000 as a reduction in debt service resulting from
using proceeds from the sale to prepay a portion of the Kobacker mortgage loan
offset most of the decrease in Kobacker in cash flow resulting from lower rent
from Kobacker.  Annual cash flow from the IMO property was approximately
$91,000.


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

   There has been no material change in the Partnership's financial condition
since December 31, 1996.  Cash flow from operations of $724,000 was sufficient
to fund distributions of $356,000 and $368,000 of total scheduled mortgage
principal payments of $437,000.

   In the event that the sale of the Partnership's property leased to Winn-Dixie
Stores, Inc. is completed, annual cash flow would decrease by $102,400.
Anticipated sale proceeds from such proposed sale is approximately $1,100,000,
less selling costs.  Completion of the sale is subject to the ability of the
purchaser to obtain financing.  Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the
sale of the property will be completed.

   The Partnership released IMO from its lease on one property in February 1997
and in exchange, IMO returned the property in an "as is" condition and paid
$486,000 into an escrow account held by an affiliate of the Partnership.  The
escrow account is being used to fund maintenance and repair costs and
construction management fees.  Any unused funds will be released to the
Partnership.

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