                               ANGELES PARTNERS IX

                     NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)

Note A - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Angeles Partners
IX (the  "Partnership"  or  "Registrant")  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" or "ARC"),
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, 2000, are not necessarily  indicative of the results that
may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2000. For further  information,
refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in
the  Partnership's  Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31,
1999.

Principles of Consolidation

The financial  statements include all of the accounts of the Partnership and its
99% owned  partnership.  The general partner of the consolidated  partnership is
Angeles Realty  Corporation.  Angeles Realty  Corporation  may be removed as the
general partner of the  consolidated  partnership by the Registrant;  therefore,
the  consolidated  Partnership is controlled and consolidated by the Registrant.
All significant interpartnership balances have been eliminated.

Note B - Transfer of Control

Pursuant  to a series  of  transactions  which  closed  on  October  1, 1998 and
February 26, 1999,  Insignia Financial Group, Inc. and Insignia Properties Trust
merged into Apartment  Investment and Management Company  ("AIMCO"),  a publicly
traded real estate investment trust, with AIMCO being the surviving  corporation
(the "Insignia Merger").  As a result, AIMCO acquired 100% ownership interest in
the General Partner.  The General Partner does not believe that this transaction
has had or will have a material  effect on the  affairs  and  operations  of the
Partnership.

Note C - Transactions with Affiliated Parties

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 (i) certain  payments to affiliates for
services and (ii)  reimbursement of certain  expenses  incurred by affiliates on
behalf of the Partnership.

The following  amounts were paid to the General  Partner and its  affiliates for
the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999:

                                                              2000       1999
                                                              (in thousands)

   Property management fees (included in
     operating expenses)                                      $101       $ 99
   Reimbursement for services of affiliates
     (included in investment properties, operating
      expenses and general and administrative expenses)         64         55

During the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, affiliates of the General
Partner  were  entitled  to  receive  5% of  gross  receipts  from  all  of  the
Registrant's   properties  for  providing  property  management  services.   The
Registrant  paid to such affiliates  approximately  $101,000 and $99,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

An  affiliate  of the General  Partner  received  reimbursement  of  accountable
administrative  expenses amounting to approximately  $64,000 and $55,000 for the
three  months  ended  March 31, 2000 and 1999,  respectively.  Included in these
expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2000, is approximately $23,000 for
construction oversight reimbursements. No such costs were incurred for the three
months ended March 31, 1999.

AIMCO and its affiliates  currently own 11,986 limited  partnership units in the
Partnership  representing  60.005% of the  outstanding  units. A number of these
units were acquired  pursuant to tender offers made by AIMCO or its  affiliates.
It is possible  that AIMCO or its  affiliates  will make one or more  additional
offers to acquire  additional limited  partnership  interests in the Partnership
for cash or in exchange for units in the operating  partnership of AIMCO.  Under
the  Partnership  Agreement,  unitholders  holding a  majority  of the Units are
entitled to take action with respect to a variety of matters. As a result of its
ownership  of  60.005%  of the  outstanding  units,  AIMCO is in a  position  to
influence all voting  decisions with respect to the  Registrant.  When voting on
matters,  AIMCO would in all  likelihood  vote the Units it acquired in a manner
favorable to the interest of the General  Partner  because of their  affiliation
with the General Partner.

Note D - Segment Information

Description  of the types of products  and  services  from which the  reportable
segment derives its revenue:

The  Partnership  has  one  reportable  segment:   residential   property.   The
Partnership's  residential property segment consists of five apartment complexes
located in Texas (2) and Alabama (3). The  Partnership  rents apartment units to
tenants for terms that are typically twelve months or less.

Measurement of segment profit or loss:

The  Partnership  evaluates  performance  based on segment  profit (loss) before
depreciation.  The accounting policies of the reportable segment are the same as
those of the Partnership as described in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form
10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1999.

Factors management used to identify the enterprise's reportable segment:

The  Partnership's  reportable  segment  consists of investment  properties that
offer similar products and services.  Although each of the investment properties
is  managed  separately,  they have been  aggregated  into one  segment  as they
provide services with similar types of products and customers.

Segment information for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, is shown
in the tables below.  The "Other"  column  includes  partnership  administration
related items and income and expense not allocated to the reportable segment.

Note E - Legal Proceedings

In March 1998, several putative unit holders of limited partnership units of the
Partnership  commenced an action  entitled  Rosalie  Nuanes,  et al. v. Insignia
Financial  Group,  Inc., et al. in the Superior Court of the State of California
for the County of San Mateo. The plaintiffs  named as defendants,  among others,
the   Partnership,   the  General  Partner  and  several  of  their   affiliated
partnerships  and corporate  entities.  The action  purports to assert claims on
behalf of a class of limited  partners and derivatively on behalf of a number of
limited  partnerships  (including  the  Partnership)  which are named as nominal
defendants,  challenging  the  acquisition  by Insignia  Financial  Group,  Inc.
("Insignia")  and  entities  which  were,  at one time,  affiliates  of Insignia
("Insignia  Affiliates") of interests in certain general partner entities,  past
tender offers by Insignia  Affiliates to acquire limited  partnership units, the
management of partnerships  by Insignia  Affiliates and the Insignia Merger (see
"Note B - Transfer  of  Control").  The  plaintiffs  seek  monetary  damages and
equitable relief, including judicial dissolution of the Partnership. On June 25,
1998,  the General  Partner filed a motion seeking  dismissal of the action.  In
lieu  of  responding  to the  motion,  the  plaintiffs  have  filed  an  amended
complaint.  The General Partner filed  demurrers to the amended  complaint which
were heard  February  1999.  Pending  the ruling on such  demurrers,  settlement
negotiations  commenced.  On November 2, 1999, the parties  executed and filed a
Stipulation of Settlement,  settling claims, subject to final court approval, on
behalf of the Partnership and all limited  partners who own units as of November
3, 1999. Preliminary approval of the settlement was obtained on November 3, 1999
from the  Superior  Court of the State of  California,  County of San Mateo,  at
which time the Court set a final approval  hearing for December 10, 1999.  Prior
to the December 10, 1999 hearing the Court  received  various  objections to the
settlement, including a challenge to the Court's preliminary approval based upon
the  alleged  lack of  authority  of class  plaintiffs'  counsel  to  enter  the
settlement.  On  December  14,  1999,  the General  Partner  and its  affiliates
terminated the proposed  settlement.  Certain  plaintiffs have filed a motion to
disqualify  some of the plaintiffs'  counsel in the action.  The General Partner
does not anticipate that costs associated with this case will be material to the
Partnership's overall operations.

The  Partnership is unaware of any other pending or outstanding  litigation that
is not of a routine nature arising in the ordinary course of business.

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

The  matters  discussed  in this Form  10-QSB  contain  certain  forward-looking
statements  and  involve  risks and  uncertainties  (including  changing  market
conditions,   competitive  and  regulatory   matters,   etc.)  detailed  in  the
disclosures  contained  in this  Form  10-QSB  and the  other  filings  with the
Securities and Exchange Commission made by the Registrant from time to time. The
discussions of the  Registrant's  business and results of operations,  including
forward-looking  statements  pertaining  to such  matters,  does not  take  into
account the effects of any changes to the  Registrant's  business and results of
operations.  Accordingly,  actual  results  could differ  materially  from those
projected in the forward-looking  statements as a result of a number of factors,
including those identified herein.

The Partnership's investment properties consist of five apartment complexes. The
following table sets forth the average occupancy of the properties for the three
months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999:

                                                   Average Occupancy

      Property                                      2000       1999

      Pines of Northwest Crossing Apartments        97%        97%
        Houston, Texas
      Panorama Terrace Apartments                   94%        97%
        Birmingham, Alabama
      Forest River Apartments                       98%        95%
        Gadsden, Alabama
      Village Green Apartments                      95%        96%
        Montgomery, Alabama
      Rosemont Crossing Apartments                  95%        93%
        San Antonio, Texas

The General  Partner  attributes  the  increase  in  occupancy  at Forest  River
Apartments,  to  management's  aggressive  marketing  campaign  to  attract  new
tenants.  The General  Partner  attributes the decrease in occupancy at Panorama
Terrace  Apartments to the competitive  market of the apartment  industry in the
Birmingham area.

Results of Operations

The  Partnership's net income for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999
was approximately $26,000 and $1,000,  respectively.  The increase in net income
is due to an increase in total revenues.  Total revenues increased primarily due
to an increase in rental income.  The increase in rental income is due primarily
to  increases  in the  average  rental  rates at all  five of the  Partnership's
investment  properties  and an increase in occupancy at Forest River  Apartments
and  Rosemont  Crossing  Apartments  which  more than  offset  the  decrease  in
occupancy at Panorama Terrace Apartments and Village Green Apartments.

The decreases in interest, property tax and general and administrative expenses,
were  partially  offset by an increase in operating  expense  which  resulted in
total expenses remaining relatively  constant.  The decrease in interest expense
is due to  scheduled  principal  payments  made  on  the  properties  respective
mortgages.  General and  administrative  expenses  decreased  primarily due to a
decrease in management  reimbursements  to the General Partner allowed under the
Partnership  Agreement and, to a lesser extent, a decrease in legal costs, which
included the  Partnership's  portion of settlement  costs  disclosed in previous
quarters.  Included in general and administrative expense at both March 31, 2000
and 1999 are costs associated with the quarterly and annual  communications with
investors  and  regulatory  agencies  and  the  annual  audit  required  by  the
Partnership Agreement are also included.

The  increase  in  operating  expenses  is  due  primarily  to  an  increase  in
maintenance  expense.  The increase in  maintenance  expense is due primarily to
insurance proceeds received during 1999 that exceeded the expenses relating to a
casualty  at The  Pines of  Northwest  Crossing  Apartments  and fire  damage at
Panorama Terrace Apartments.  Depreciation expense and interest expense remained
relatively constant for the comparable periods.

As part of the ongoing  business plan of the  Partnership,  the 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 expenses. As part of this plan,
the  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 General Partner will
be able to sustain such a plan.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At  March  31,  2000,  the  Partnership   had  cash  and  cash   equivalents  of
approximately $1,126,000 compared to approximately $1,133,000 at March 31, 1999.
The  decrease in cash and cash  equivalents  of  approximately  $187,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 2000, from the Partnership's  calendar year end, is
due  to  approximately  $810,000  of  cash  used  in  investing  activities  and
approximately $72,000 of cash used in financing activities,  which was partially
offset by approximately $695,000 of cash provided by operating activities.  Cash
used in investing activities consisted of property improvements and replacements
and to a lesser  extent  net  deposits  to  escrow  accounts  maintained  by the
mortgage  lender.  Cash used in  financing  activities  consisted of payments of
principal made on the mortgages  encumbering the  Registrant's  properties.  The
Partnership invests its working capital reserves in money market accounts.

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 various  properties  to  adequately  maintain  the
physical  assets and other operating needs of the Partnership and to comply with
Federal,   state,  and  local,  legal  and  regulatory   requirements.   Capital
improvements  planned  for each of the  Partnership's  properties  are  detailed
below.

Pines of Northwest  Crossing  Apartments:  For 2000 the Partnership has budgeted
approximately  $144,000  for  capital  improvements,   consisting  primarily  of
plumbing  improvements,  and floor covering,  appliances,  and air  conditioning
replacements.   The  Partnership  completed  approximately  $50,000  in  capital
expenditures at The Pines of Northwest Crossing Apartments as of March 31, 2000,
consisting  primarily  of  floor  covering  and  appliance  replacements.  These
improvements were funded primarily from operations.

Panorama Terrace Apartments: For 2000 the Partnership has budgeted approximately
$477,000 for capital  improvements,  consisting  primarily of exterior painting,
parking lot  improvements,  floor  covering  and  appliance  replacements,  roof
impairments  and major  landscaping.  The  Partnership  completed  approximately
$398,000 in capital  expenditures at Panorama Terrace Apartments as of March 31,
2000,  consisting  primarily of roof improvements,  major landscaping,  exterior
painting and parking lot upgrades. These improvements were funded primarily from
operations.

Forest River  Apartments:  For 2000 the Partnership  has budgeted  approximately
$99,000  for  capital  improvements,  consisting  primarily  of floor  covering,
appliances,  and  air  conditioning  replacements.   The  Partnership  completed
approximately  $24,000 in capital  expenditures at Forest River Apartments as of
March  31,  2000,   consisting   primarily  of  floor   covering  and  appliance
replacements.  These  improvements  were funded  primarily  from  operations and
replacement reserves.

Village Green  Apartments:  For 2000 the Partnership has budgeted  approximately
$134,000  for capital  improvements,  consisting  primarily  of floor  covering,
appliances  and air  conditioning  replacement  and plumbing  improvements.  The
Partnership  completed  approximately $36,000 in capital expenditures at Village
Green  Apartments as of March 31, 2000,  consisting  primarily of floor covering
replacements,  appliances, and HVAC improvements. These improvements were funded
primarily from operations.

Rosemont   Crossing   Apartments:   For  2000  the   Partnership   has  budgeted
approximately  $530,000 for capital improvements,  consisting primarily of floor
covering,  cabinet  replacements,  appliances and interior and exterior building
improvements.   The  Partnership  completed  approximately  $43,000  in  capital
expenditures at Rosemont  Crossing  Apartments as of March 31, 2000,  consisting
primarily of major  landscaping.  These  improvements were funded primarily from
operations.

The additional  capital  expenditures will be incurred only if cash is available
from  operations  and  Partnership  reserves.  To the extent that such  budgeted
capital improvements are completed,  the Partnership's  distributable cash flow,
if any, may be adversely affected at least in the short term.

The Partnership's  current assets are thought to be sufficient for any near-term
needs  (exclusive  of capital  improvements)  of the  Partnership.  The mortgage
indebtedness of approximately  $19,225,000,  net of discounts, is amortized over
periods ranging from  approximately  29 to 30 years with balloon payments due in
2002 and 2003. The General  Partner may attempt to refinance  such  indebtedness
and/or sell the  properties  prior to such  maturity  dates.  If the  properties
cannot be refinanced or sold for a sufficient  amount, the Partnership will risk
losing such properties through foreclosure.

No cash  distributions  were paid to the partners  during the three months ended
March 31, 2000 and 1999. The Partnership's  distribution policy is reviewed on a
semi-annual  basis.  Future cash  distributions will depend on the levels of net
cash generated  from  operations,  the  availability  of cash reserves,  and the
timing of the debt maturities, property sales and/or refinancings.  There can be
no assurance,  however, that the Partnership will generate sufficient funds from
operations  after  required   capital   improvement   expenditures,   to  permit
distributions to its partners in 2000 or subsequent  periods.  In addition,  the
Partnership  may be restricted  from making  distributions  if the amount in the
reserve  account  maintained  by the  mortgage  lender  is less  than  $400  per
apartment unit at Forest River Apartments,  Rosemont Crossing Apartments and The
Pines of Northwest Crossing Apartments for a total of approximately $351,000. As
of March 31, 2000 the balance in the reserve account is approximately $177,000.
