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 include a 5% brokerage commission. The sales transaction is
scheduled to occur on August 11, 1997. The Winn-Dixie lease provides annual
rentals of $102,000 and is scheduled to expire in December 1999.

                 Item 2. - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION OF OPERATIONS



Results of Operations:

      Excluding the effect of an extraordinary charge of $255,000 in the second
quarter of 1996, income for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30,
1997 increased by $104,000 and $176,000, respectively, as compared with the
similar periods ended June 30, 1996. The increases were due to decreases in
interest, property and depreciation expenses, and were partially offset by
decreases in lease revenues and, to a lesser extent, increases in general and
administrative expenses.

      The decreases in interest were due to the benefit realized on refinancing
the mortgage loan on The Gap, Inc. property at a lower rate of interest in the
second quarter of 1996 and the continuing amortization of mortgage loans on the
Pre Finish Metals Incorporated and IMO Industries, Inc. properties. The Pre
Finish Metals loan will fully amortize in 1998 and the IMO Industries loan is
amortizing over ten years through 2002. The decreases in depreciation were due
to the full depreciation of certain improvements which utilize component-method
depreciation schedules. The decreases in property expense were due to charges
incurred in 1996 for the writeoff of certain property-related receivables. The
decreases in lease revenues were due to the termination of a lease with IMO
Industries in February 1997 which provided annual rentals of $91,000 and a
reduction in rentals from Kobacker Stores, Inc. subsequent to the sale of two
Kobacker properties in the fourth quarter of 1996.


Financial Condition:

      There has been no material change in the Partnership's condition since
December 31, 1996. Cash flow from operations of $1,427,000 was sufficient to
fund distributions of $712,000 and $715,000 of scheduled principal payment
installments of $838,000. Scheduled amortization of mortgage principal will
decrease substantially beginning in July 1998 when the loan on the Pre Finish
Metals property will be paid off; principal paid on the Pre Finish Metal
mortgage loan during the six-month period ended June 30, 1997 amounted to
$420,000. Accordingly, Management believes that the Partnership can sustain the
current distribution rate even though uses of cash currently exceed cash
generated from operations.

      Annual operating cash flow is expected to decrease by $102,400 when the
sale of the Winn-Dixie Stores, Inc. property in Louisville, Kentucky is
completed. Proceeds from the proposed sale will be approximately $1,100,000,
less selling costs. The sale is scheduled to occur on August 11, 1997.

      The Partnership released IMO Industries from its lease on a 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 repair costs and
construction management fees. Any unused funds will be released to the
Partnership. A second lease with IMO has an initial term which expires in
September 2002.

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