                                  (Unaudited)

NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited financial statements of Century Properties Fund XIV
(the "Partnership") have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial information and with the
instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310(b) of Regulation S-B.  Accordingly,
they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In the
opinion of Fox Capital Management Corporation ("FCMC" or the "Managing General
Partner"), a California corporation, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included. Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended September
30, 1996, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
the fiscal year ending December 31, 1996.  For further information, refer to the
consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the
Partnership's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1995 information to conform to
the 1996 presentation.

NOTE B - TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATED PARTIES

The Partnership has no employees and is dependent on its general partners and
their affiliates for the management and administration of all partnership
activities.  The Partnership Agreement provides for payments to affiliates for
services and as reimbursement of certain expenses incurred by affiliates on
behalf of the Partnership.

The general partners of the Partnership are Fox Realty Investors ("FRI"), a
California general partnership, and FCMC.

Pursuant to a series of transactions which closed during the first half of 1996,
affiliates of Insignia Financial Group, Inc. ("Insignia") acquired (i) control
of NPI Equity Investments II, Inc. ("NPI Equity"), the managing general partner
of FRI, and (ii) all of the issued and outstanding shares of stock of FCMC.  NPI
Equity is a wholly-owned subsidiary of National Property Investors, Inc.
("NPI"). In connection with these transactions, affiliates of Insignia appointed
new officers and directors of NPI Equity and FCMC.

The following transactions with affiliates of Insignia, NPI, and affiliates of
NPI were charged to expense in 1996 and 1995:

</TABLE>

For the period from January 19, 1996, to September 30, 1996, the Partnership
insured its properties under a master policy through an agency and insurer
unaffiliated with the Managing General Partner.  An affiliate of the Managing
General Partner acquired, in the acquisition of a business, certain financial
obligations from an insurance agency which was later acquired by the agent who
placed the current year's master policy.  The current agent assumed the
financial obligations to the affiliate of the Managing General Partner who
received payments on these obligations from the agent.  The amount of the
Partnership's insurance premiums accruing to the benefit of the affiliate of the
Managing General Partner by virtue of the agent's obligations is not
significant.

purposes, the sale resulted in a loss of $36,000.

On September 12, 1995, the Partnership sold Greenbriar Plaza Shopping Center,
located in Duncanville, Texas, for $1,050,000.  After closing expenses of
$70,000, the net proceeds received by the Partnership were $980,000.  For
financial statement purposes, the sale resulted in a loss of $556,000.  An
estimated provision for loss on the sale of Greenbriar Plaza Shopping Center of
$605,000 was recorded during the six months ended June 30, 1995.


ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

The Partnership's remaining investment properties consist of three residential
apartment complexes and one commercial property.  The following table sets forth

The Partnership earned net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1996,
of approximately $2,780,000 compared to $27,000 for the corresponding period of
1995. For the three months ended September 30, 1996, the Partnership earned net
income of approximately $25,000 compared to a net loss of approximately $90,000
for the three months ended September 30, 1995. The increase in net income for
the nine month period is attributable to the gain on the sales of Broadway Trade
Center, University Square Shopping Center, and The Oaks Shopping Center.
Partially offsetting the gain from the property sales was a decrease in rental
revenues due to the Partnership owning fewer properties. The decreases in
operating, interest, and depreciation expenses can also be attributed to the
property sales in 1995 and 1996.  The decrease in other income for the nine
month period is partially attributable to a settlement in 1995 with the City of
Bozeman in connection with a right of way agreement pertaining to the
condemnation of a part of the University Square property, pursuant to which the
Partnership received net proceeds of $150,000. Also included in other income in
1995 were proceeds received for the re-lease of the assignor's guarantee from a
vacating tenant at The Oaks Shopping Center.  General and administrative
expenses increased primarily due to an increase in expense reimbursements. As
noted in "Item 1,  Note B - Transactions with Affiliated Parties," the
Partnership reimburses the Managing General Partner and its affiliates for its
costs involved in the management and administration of all partnership
activities.  While overall expense reimbursements have increased during the nine
month period ended September 30, 1996, the recurring expenses subsequent to the
transition efforts to the new administration are expected to more closely
approximate historical levels.  The increase in expense reimbursements during
the nine month period ended September 30, 1996, is directly attributable to the
combined transition efforts of the Greenville, South Carolina,  and Atlanta,
Georgia, administrative offices during the year-end close, preparation of the
1995 10-K and tax return (including the limited partner K-1's), filing of the
first two quarterly reports and transition of asset management responsibilities
to the new administration.  Also contributing to the increase in general and 
administrative expenses were increases in professional fees and administrative 
costs in 1996.  During the nine months ended September 30, 1996, the Partnership
incurred an extraordinary loss on extinguishment of the Broadway Trade debt.  
The extraordinary loss represents the remaining unamortized mortgage discount of
the Broadway Trade debt at the time of its payoff.

With respect to the remaining properties, rental revenues increased for the nine
months ended September 30, 1996, by $251,000 primarily due to increased rental
rates at St. Charleston Village Apartments, Sun River Apartments and Torrey
Pines Village Apartments and an increase in occupancy at Gateway Park. Operating
expenses at the remaining properties for the nine months ended September 30,
1996, were consistent with the nine months ended September 30, 1995. The
increase in rental revenues at the remaining properties also contributed to the
increase in net income for the three months ended September 30, 1996, compared
to the corresponding period of 1995.

As part of the ongoing business plan of the Partnership, the Managing General
Partner monitors the rental market environment of its investment properties to
assess the feasibility of increasing rents, maintaining or increasing occupancy
levels and protecting the Partnership from increases in expense.  As part of
this plan, the Managing General Partner attempts to protect the Partnership from
the burden of inflation-related increases in expenses by increasing rents and
maintaining a high overall occupancy level.  However, due to changing market
conditions, which can result in the use of rental concessions and rental
reductions to offset softening market conditions, there is no guarantee that the
Managing General Partner will be able to sustain such a plan.

At September 30, 1996, the Partnership had unrestricted cash of $2,015,000
compared to $2,654,000 at September 30, 1995.  Net cash provided by operating
activities decreased primarily as a result of a decrease in rental revenues as a
result of the property sales in 1995 and 1996.  Net cash provided by investing
activities increased due to proceeds from the sale of Broadway Trade Center and
University Square Shopping Center in 1996.  Net cash used in financing
activities increased due to a distribution of proceeds from the sale of Wingren
Plaza in January 1996 and a distribution in July 1996 of proceeds from the sales
of Broadway Trade Center and University Square Shopping Center.  Also
contributing to the increase in cash used in financing activities was the payoff
of the mortgage notes encumbering Broadway Trade Center when the property was
sold in 1996.

An affiliate of the Managing General Partner has made available to the
Partnership a credit line of up to $150,000 per property owned by the
Partnership.  The Partnership has no outstanding amounts due under this line of
credit.  Based on present plans, the Managing General Partner does not
anticipate the need to borrow in the near future.  Other than cash and cash
equivalents, the line of credit is the Partnership's only unused source of
liquidity.

The sufficiency of existing liquid assets to meet future liquidity and capital
expenditure requirements is directly related to the level of capital
expenditures required at the properties to adequately maintain the physical
assets and other operating needs of the Partnership.  Such assets are currently
thought to be sufficient for any near-term needs of the Partnership.  The
remaining mortgage indebtedness of $17,736,000 matures at various times with
balloon payments due at maturity at which time the properties will either be
refinanced or sold.  Future cash distributions will depend on the levels of cash
generated from operations, property sales, and the availability of cash
reserves.  On October 17, 1995, the Partnership distributed $3,001,000 ($46.31
per unit) to the limited partners and $61,000 to the general partners from the
proceeds of the sale of the Greenbriar Plaza Shopping Center and Duck Creek
Shopping Center properties.  On January 11, 1996, the Partnership distributed
$980,000 ($15.12 per unit) to the limited partners and $20,000 to the general
partners from the proceeds received from the sale of the Partnership's Wingren
Plaza property.  On July 3, 1996, the Partnership distributed approximately
$6,617,000 ($102.11 per unit) to the limited partners and approximately $135,000
to the general partners.  This distribution primarily represented proceeds
received from the sales of University Square and Broadway Trade during the first
quarter of 1996.
