                               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 and
six months  ended June 30, 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 - Subsequent Event

On July 20,  2000,  The  Pines of  Northwest  Crossing  Apartments,  located  in
Houston,  Texas, was sold to an unaffiliated third party for a gross sales price
of $9,500,000. After closing expenses of approximately $559,000 the net proceeds
realized by the Partnership were approximately $8,941,000.  The Partnership used
a portion  of the  proceeds  from the sale of the  property  to pay off the debt
encumbering the property of approximately $5,028,000.

Note D - Casualty Gain

In March 2000, a fire  occurred at Forest River  Apartments,  which  resulted in
damage to four apartment units.  The property  incurred damages of approximately
$160,000 and estimated lost rents of approximately  $12,000.  Insurance proceeds
of approximately  $154,000 have been received during the three months ended June
30, 2000. The Partnership realized a casualty gain of approximately $50,000 from
this event.

Note E - 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 six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999:

                                                              2000       1999
                                                              (in thousands)

   Property management fees (included in
     operating expenses)                                      $205       $201
   Reimbursement for services of affiliates
     (included in investment properties, operating
      expenses and general and administrative expenses)        138         94

During the six months  ended June 30, 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  $205,000 and $201,000 for the
six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

An  affiliate  of the General  Partner  received  reimbursement  of  accountable
administrative  expenses amounting to approximately $138,000 and $94,000 for the
six  months  ended  June 30,  2000 and  1999,  respectively.  Included  in these
expenses  is  approximately  $43,000  and  $11,000  for  construction  oversight
reimbursements for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

AIMCO and its affiliates  currently own 12,169 limited  partnership units in the
Partnership  representing  60.92% 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  60.92%  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 F - Distributions

During the six months ended June 30, 2000, cash  distributions  of approximately
$682,000  ($675,000  of which was paid to the  limited  partners  or $33.79  per
limited partnership unit) were paid from operations.  No cash distributions were
paid to the partners during the six months ended June 30, 1999.

Note G - 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  properties.  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 and six month periods ended June 30, 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 H - 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,   its  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 of interests in certain general partner
entities by Insignia Financial Group, Inc. and entities which were, at one time,
affiliates of Insignia; past tender offers by the Insignia affiliates to acquire
limited  partnership  units;  the  management  of  partnerships  by the Insignia
affiliates;  and the Insignia  Merger.  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 owned  units as of November 3, 1999.  Preliminary
approval of the settlement  was obtained on November 3, 1999 from the Court,  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 prior lead counsel to enter the settlement.  On
December  14,  1999,  the General  Partner  and its  affiliates  terminated  the
proposed settlement.  In February 2000, counsel for some of the named plaintiffs
filed a motion to disqualify plaintiff's lead and liaison counsel who negotiated
the settlement.  On June 27, 2000, the Court entered an order disqualifying them
from the case. The Court will entertain applications for lead counsel which must
be filed by August 4, 2000. The Court has scheduled a hearing on August 21, 2000
to address the issue of appointing  lead counsel.  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 six
months ended June 30, 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                       96%        96%
        Gadsden, Alabama
      Village Green Apartments                      95%        97%
        Montgomery, Alabama
      Rosemont Crossing Apartments                  94%        93%
        San Antonio, Texas

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 Registrant's net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 was
approximately $154,000 and $180,000,  respectively, as compared to approximately
$47,000  and  $48,000  for the three and six  months  ended June 30,  1999.  The
increase in net income is due to an increase in total  revenues.  Total revenues
increased  primarily  due to  increases  in  other  income,  rental  income  and
recognition of a casualty gain in 2000. Other income increased  primarily due to
an increase in late charges and an increase in  miscellaneous  income at four of
the  Partnership's  investment  properties.  The  increase  in other  income was
partially  offset by a decrease  in lease  cancellation  fees.  The  increase in
rental income is due primarily to an increase in the average rental rates at all
five of the Partnership's  investment properties.  The increase in rental income
was partially offset by a decrease in occupancy at Panorama  Terrace  Apartments
and Village Green  Apartments in addition to an increase in bad debt expense and
concession costs at all properties except Village Green Apartments. The casualty
gain is a result of a March 2000 fire which occurred at Forest River Apartments.
Four  apartment  units  were  damaged  with a cost  of  approximately  $160,000.
Insurance  proceeds  of  approximately  $154,000  were  received  to cover these
damages.  After writing off the  undepreciated  cost of the damaged  units,  the
Partnership recognized a casualty gain of approximately $50,000.

Total expenses remained  relatively  constant for the comparable  periods, as an
increase in depreciation expense and interest expense was offset by decreases in
operating and property tax expenses.  Depreciation expense increased as a result
of  recent  capital  improvements  performed  at all  five of the  Partnership's
investment properties. The decrease in property tax expense is due to the timing
of the receipt of tax bills,  which  affected the tax accruals  recorded for the
respective  periods.  The  decrease in operating  expense is due  primarily to a
decrease  in  maintenance  expense  and,  to a  lesser  extent,  a  decrease  in
advertising  and rental  expense.  The  decrease in  maintenance  expense is due
primarily to decreases in interior building  improvements and painting supplies.
The decrease in maintenance  expense was partially offset by 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.  The decrease in advertising and rental expense is due to a decrease
in referral  fees  incurred in 1999 in an effort to  increase  occupancy  at the
Partnership's investment properties.

General and administrative  expenses remained  relatively constant for the three
months ended June 30, 2000.  General and  administrative  expenses decreased for
the six months ended June 30, 2000,  primarily due to a decrease in legal costs,
which included the Partnership's portion of settlement costs paid during the six
months ended June 30, 1999. The decrease in general and administrative  expenses
was partially offset by an increase in management  reimbursements to the General
Partner  allowed under the Partnership  Agreement.  Also included in general and
administrative  expense at both June 30, 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.

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 June 30, 2000, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of approximately
$803,000 compared to approximately  $1,320,000 at June 30, 1999. The decrease in
cash and cash  equivalents  of  approximately  $510,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 2000, from the Partnership's calendar year end, is due to approximately
$722,000 of cash used in investing activities and approximately $823,000 of cash
used in  financing  activities,  which was  partially  offset  by  approximately
$1,035,000  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 which
were  slightly  offset by the  receipt  of  insurance  proceeds  related  to the
casualty at Forest River Apartments. Cash used in financing activities consisted
of distributions to partners and, to a lesser extent, 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  $114,000  in  capital
expenditures at The Pines of Northwest Crossing  Apartments as of June 30, 2000,
consisting  primarily of floor  covering and  appliance  replacements  and other
building improvements. These improvements were funded primarily from operations.
This property was sold on July 20, 2000 (see subsequent event below).

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
replacements  and major  landscaping.  The Partnership  completed  approximately
$429,000 in capital  expenditures at Panorama Terrace  Apartments as of June 30,
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
$131,000  for capital  improvements,  consisting  primarily  of floor  covering,
appliances,  and  air  conditioning  replacements.   The  Partnership  completed
approximately  $84,000 in capital  expenditures at Forest River Apartments as of
June  30,  2000,   consisting   primarily  of  floor  covering  replacement  and
construction  related  to the  repair  of the  units  damaged  in the  fire,  as
discussed above.  These  improvements  were funded primarily from operations and
replacement  reserves.  In March 2000,  the  property  sustained  damage to four
apartments  that were damaged by fire.  These  improvements  will be funded from
insurance proceeds.

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 $61,000 in capital expenditures at Village
Green  Apartments as of June 30, 2000,  consisting  primarily of floor  covering
replacements,  appliances,  swimming pool  improvements,  and HVAC improvements.
These improvements were funded primarily from replacement reserves.

Rosemont   Crossing   Apartments:   For  2000  the   Partnership   has  budgeted
approximately  $530,000 for capital improvements,  consisting primarily of floor
covering, cabinet replacements,  appliances,  major landscaping and interior and
exterior building improvements.  The Partnership completed approximately $73,000
in capital  expenditures  at Rosemont  Crossing  Apartments as of June 30, 2000,
consisting  primarily of major  landscaping  and floor covering  replacement and
other  building  improvements.  These  improvements  were funded  primarily from
operations and replacement reserves.

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  $19,160,000,  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.

During the six months ended June 30, 2000, cash  distributions  of approximately
$682,000  ($675,000  of which was paid to the  limited  partners  or $33.79  per
limited partnership unit) were paid from operations.  No cash distributions were
paid to the  partners  during the six months  ended June 30,  1999.  Future cash
distributions  will depend on the levels of net cash generated from  operations,
the  availability  of  cash  reserves,   and  the  timing  of  debt  maturities,
refinancings  and/or property sales. The  Partnership's  distribution  policy is
reviewed on a semi-annual  basis. There can be no assurance,  however,  that the
Partnership  will  generate  sufficient  funds from  operations,  after  planned
capital  improvement  expenditures,  to permit  additional  distributions to its
partners during the remainder of 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  $200  per
apartment unit at Forest River Apartments,  Rosemont Crossing Apartments and The
Pines of Northwest Crossing Apartments for a total of approximately $175,000. As
of June 30, 2000 the balance in the reserve account is approximately $265,000.

Subsequent Event

On July 20,  2000,  The  Pines of  Northwest  Crossing  Apartments,  located  in
Houston,  Texas, was sold to an unaffiliated third party for a gross sales price
of $9,500,000. After closing expenses of approximately $559,000 the net proceeds
received by the Partnership were approximately $8,941,000.  The Partnership used
a portion  of the  proceeds  from the sale of the  property  to pay off the debt
encumbering   the  property  of   approximately   $5,028,000.   The  Partnership
anticipates  realizing  a gain of  approximately  $4,570,000  on the sale of the
property and an extraordinary  loss from debt  extinguishment of $323,000 during
the third quarter of 2000.

The following  unaudited  pro-forma  information  reflects the operations of the
Partnership for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000, as if The Pines of
Northwest Crossing  Apartments (which actually sold July 20, 2000) had been sold
January 1, 2000 (in thousands except per unit data)

                           PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.     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,   its  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 of interests in certain general partner
entities by Insignia Financial Group, Inc. and entities which were, at one time,
affiliates of Insignia; past tender offers by the Insignia affiliates to acquire
limited  partnership  units;  the  management  of  partnerships  by the Insignia
affiliates;  and the Insignia  Merger.  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 owned  units as of November 3, 1999.  Preliminary
approval of the settlement  was obtained on November 3, 1999 from the Court,  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 prior lead counsel to enter the settlement.  On
December  14,  1999,  the General  Partner  and its  affiliates  terminated  the
proposed settlement.  In February 2000, counsel for some of the named plaintiffs
filed a motion to disqualify plaintiff's lead and liaison counsel who negotiated
the settlement.  On June 27, 2000, the Court entered an order disqualifying them
from the case. The Court will entertain applications for lead counsel which must
be filed by August 4, 2000. The Court has scheduled a hearing on August 21, 2000
to address the issue of appointing  lead counsel.  The General  Partner does not
anticipate  that  costs  associated  with  this  case  will be  material  to the
Partnership's overall operations.
