NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited financial statements 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 Angeles Realty Corporation (the "General Partner"), all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the three months
ended March 31, 1997, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1997.  For further information,
refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in Angeles
Partners VII's (the "Partnership") annual report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 1996.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1996 information to conform to
the 1997 presentation.


NOTE B - TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

The Partnership has no employees and is dependent on the General Partner and its
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.


                                                Three Months Ended

Reimbursement for services of affiliates          15          15

The Partnership insures its property under a master policy through an agency and
insurer unaffiliated with the General Partner.  An affiliate of the 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 of the affiliate of the General Partner who receives
payments on these obligations from the agent. The amount of the Partnership's
insurance premiums accruing to the benefit of the affiliate of the General
Partner by virtue of the agent's obligations is not significant.

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

The Partnership's investment property consists of one apartment complex.  The
following table sets forth the average occupancy of the property for the three
months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996:



                                                    Average
                                                   Occupancy
Property                                         1997       1996

Cedarwood Apartments
  Gretna, Louisiana                               96%        97%

The Partnership reported net income of $21,000 for the three months ended March
31, 1997, versus net income of $12,000 for the three months ended March 31,
1996. The increase in net income for the three months ended March 31, 1997, is
attributable to an increase in rental income, which is slightly offset by an
increase in depreciation expense and maintenance expense.  Rental income
increased as a result of an increase in average rental rates, despite a 1%
decrease in occupancy at Cedarwood Apartments.  The increase in depreciation
expense was due to the completion of property improvements in 1996 in an effort
to upgrade the interior of the units.  This interior upgrading project has
continued from fourth quarter 1996 into 1997 and, as a result, has lead to an
increase in maintenance expense for the three months ended March 31, 1997.

Included in maintenance expense for the period ended March 31, 1996, is $17,000
of major repairs and maintenance mainly comprised of interior building
improvements.

The General Partner continues to monitor the rental market environment at its
apartment property to assess the feasibility of increasing rents, to maintain or
increase the occupancy level and to protect the Partnership from increases in
expense.  The General Partner expects to be able, at a minimum, to continue
protecting the Partnership from  the burden of inflation-related increases in
expenses by increasing rents and maintaining a high overall occupancy level.
However, rental concessions and rental rate reductions needed to offset
softening market conditions could affect the ability to sustain this plan.

As of March 31, 1997, the Partnership had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents
of $282,000 versus $232,000 at March 31, 1996.  Net cash provided by operating
activities increased due to the increase in net income as mentioned above, a
decrease in accounts receivable and a lesser decrease in accounts payable.
These increases were partially offset by a decrease in other liabilities.  Net
cash used in investing and financing activities for the period ending March 31,
1997, remained relatively consistent with the period ending March 31, 1996.

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 property to adequately maintain the physical assets
and other operating needs of the Partnership.  Such assets are currently thought
to be sufficient for any short-term needs of the Partnership.  The mortgage
indebtedness of $2,424,000 is being amortized over 28 years with a maturity date
of May 2007, at which time the property will be refinanced or sold.  No cash
distributions were made during the three months ended March 31, 1997. Future
distributions will depend on the levels of net cash generated from operations,
refinancings, property sale and the availability of cash reserves.
