                       (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP)

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                 MARCH 31, 2000


NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     GENERAL

     The information contained in the following notes to the financial
     statements is condensed from that which would appear in the annual audited
     financial statements; accordingly, the financial statements included herein
     should be reviewed in conjunction with the financial statements and related
     notes thereto contained in the annual report for the year ended December
     31, 1999 prepared by Real Estate Associates Limited II (the "Partnership").
     Accounting measurements at interim dates inherently involve greater
     reliance on estimates than at year end. The results of operations for the
     interim period presented are not necessarily indicative of the results for
     the entire year.

     In the opinion of the Partnership, the accompanying unaudited financial
     statements contain all adjustments (consisting primarily of normal
     recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position as
     of March 31, 2000 and the results of operations and changes in cash flows
     for the three months then ended.

     The general partners have a 1 percent interest in profits and losses of the
     Partnership. The limited partners have the remaining 99 percent interest
     which is allocated in proportion to their respective individual
     investments. National Partnership Investments Corp. (NAPICO) is the
     corporate general partner of the Partnership. Casden Properties Inc. owns a
     95.25% economic interest in NAPICO, with the balance owned by Casden
     Investment Corporation ("CIC"). CIC, which is wholly owned by Alan I.
     Casden, owns 95% of the voting common stock of NAPICO.

     USE OF ESTIMATES

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
     accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
     assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
     disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
     financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
     the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     METHOD OF ACCOUNTING FOR INVESTMENT IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS

     The investment in limited partnerships is accounted for on the equity
     method. Acquisition fees, selection fees and other costs related to the
     acquisition of the projects were capitalized as part of the investment
     account and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated
     lives of the underlying assets, which is generally 30 years.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

     NET INCOME PER LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INTEREST

     Net income per limited partnership interest was computed by dividing the
     limited partners' share of net income by the number of limited partnership
     interests outstanding during the year. The number of limited partnership
     interests was 10,693 for the periods presented.

     CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

     Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and bank certificates of deposit
     with an original maturity of three months or less. The Partnership has its
     cash and cash equivalents are in excess of the FDIC insurance limit.

     INCOME TAXES

     No provision has been made for income taxes in the accompanying financial
     statements since such taxes, if any, are the liability of the individual
     partners.

     IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

     The Partnership reviews long-lived assets to determine if there has been
     any permanent impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
     indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. If
     the sum of the expected future cash flows is less than the carrying amount
     of the assets, the Partnership recognizes an impairment loss.

NOTE 2 - INVESTMENTS IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS

     As of March 31, 2000, the Partnership holds limited partnership interests
     in 13 limited partnerships. The limited partnerships as of March 31, 2000
     own residential low income rental projects consisting of 1,079 apartment
     units. The mortgage loans of these projects are payable to or insured by
     various governmental agencies.

     The Partnership, as a limited partner, is entitled to between 94 percent
     and 99 percent of the profits and losses of the limited partnerships.

     Equity in losses of limited partnerships is recognized in the financial
     statements until the limited partnership investment account is reduced to a
     zero balance. Losses incurred after the limited partnership investment
     account is reduced to zero are not recognized.

     Distributions from the limited partnerships are accounted for as a return
     of capital until the investment balance is reduced to zero or to a negative
     amount equal to further capital contributions required. Subsequent
     distributions received are recognized as income.

                                       ============           ============

     NAPICO, or one of its affiliates, is the general partner and property
     management agent for certain of the limited partnerships included above.

     Under recent adopted law and policy, the United States Department of
     Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") has determined not to renew the
     Housing Assistance Payment ("HAP") Contracts on a long term basis on the
     existing terms. In connection with renewals of the HAP Contracts under such
     new law and policy, the amount of rental assistance payments under renewed
     HAP Contracts will be based on market rentals instead of above market
     rentals, which was generally the case under existing HAP Contracts. The
     payments under the renewed HAP Contracts are not expected to be in an
     amount that would provide sufficient cash flow to permit owners of
     properties subject to HAP Contracts to meet the debt service requirements
     of existing loans insured by the Federal Housing Administration of HUD
     ("FHA") unless such mortgage loans are restructured. In order to address
     the reduction in payments under HAP Contracts as a result of this new
     policy, the Multi-family Assisted Housing Reform and Affordability Act of
     1997 ( "MAHRAA"), which was adopted in October 1997, provides for the
     restructuring of mortgage loans insured by the FHA with respect to
     properties subject to the Section 8 program. Under MAHRAA, an FHA-insured
     mortgage loan can be restructured into a first mortgage loan which will be
     amortized on a current basis and a low interest second mortgage loan
     payable to FHA which will only be payable on maturity of the

     first mortgage loan. This restructuring results in a reduction in annual
     debt service payable by the owner of the FHA-insured mortgage loan and is
     expected to result in an insurance payment from FHA to the holder of the
     FHA-insured loan due to the reduction in the principal amount. MAHRAA also
     phases out project-based subsidies on selected properties serving families
     not located in rental markets with limited supply, converting such
     subsidies to a tenant-based subsidy.

     On September 11, 1998, HUD issued interim regulations implementing MAHRAA
     and final regulations are expected to be issued in 2000.

     When the HAP Contracts are subject to renewal, there can be no assurance
     that the local limited partnerships in which the Partnership has an
     investment will be permitted to restructure its mortgage indebtedness under
     MAHRAA. In addition, the economic impact on the Partnership of the
     combination of the reduced payments under the HAP Contracts and the
     restructuring of the existing FHA-insured mortgage loans under MAHRAA is
     uncertain.

     On December 30, 1998, after obtaining the consents of the limited partners,
     the Partnership sold its limited partnership interests in 8 local limited
     partnerships to affiliates of Casden Properties Inc. The sale resulted in
     cash proceeds to the Partnership of $5,250,000, which was collected in
     1999. In March 1999, the Partnership made cash distributions of $4,950,000
     to the limited partners and $50,000 to the general partners, primarily
     using proceeds from the sale of the partnership interests.

NOTE 3 - MANAGEMENT FEE AND EXPENSES DUE TO GENERAL PARTNER

     Under the terms of the Restated Certificate and Agreement of Limited
     Partners, the Partnership is liable to NAPICO for an annual management fee
     equal to .4 percent of the original invested assets of the limited
     partnerships. Invested assets are defined as the costs of acquiring project
     interests, including the proportionate amount of the mortgage loans related
     to the Partnership's interests in the capital accounts of the respective
     partnerships. For the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, the fee
     was $43,948 and $66,627, respectively.

     The Partnership reimburses NAPICO for certain expenses. The reimbursement
     paid to NAPICO was approximately $5,848 and $5,835 for the three months
     ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, and is included in
     administrative expenses.

NOTE 4 - CONTINGENCIES

     On August 27, 1998, two investors holding an aggregate of eight units of
     limited partnership interests in Real Estate Associates Limited III (an
     affiliated partnership in which NAPICO is the managing general partner) and
     two investors holding an aggregate of five units of limited partnership
     interest in Real Estate Associates Limited VI (another affiliated
     partnership in which NAPICO is the managing general partner) commenced an
     action in the United States District Court for the Central District of
     California against the Partnership, NAPICO and certain other affiliated
     entities. The

     complaint alleges that the defendants breached their fiduciary duty to the
     limited partners of certain NAPICO managed partnerships and made materially
     false and misleading statements in the consent solicitation statements sent
     to the limited partners of such partnerships relating to approval of the
     transfer of partnership interests in limited partnerships, owning certain
     of the properties, to affiliates of Casden Properties Inc., organized by an
     affiliate of NAPICO. The plaintiffs seek equitable relief, as well as
     compensatory damages and litigation related costs. On August 4, 1999, one
     investor holding one unit of limited partnership interest in Housing
     Programs Limited (another affiliated partnership in which NAPICO is the
     managing general partner) commenced a virtually identical action in the
     United States District Court for the Central District of California against
     the Partnership, NAPICO and certain other affiliated entities. The managing
     general partner of such NAPICO managed partnerships and the other
     defendants believe that the plaintiffs' claims are without merit and intend
     to contest the actions vigorously.

     On December 30, 1998, the Operating Partnership acquired, for value, title
     to New Haven Plaza Associates' property in Far Rockaway, New York.
     Thereafter, NAPICO commenced an action for a declaratory judgment that
     NAPICO had the authority to transfer the property and that the value paid
     by the Operating Partnership for the property was fair. Defendants have
     pled counterclaims alleging that inter alia, NAPICO was not authorized to
     transfer the property and breached its fiduciary duties to the limited
     partners. Defendants also seek an accounting and distributions of surplus
     cash. The parties are in the process of conducting discovery.

     The corporate general partner is involved in various lawsuits arising from
     transactions in the ordinary course of business.

     In the opinion of management and the corporate general partner, the claims
     will not result in any material liability to the Partnership.

NOTE 5 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosure about Fair
     Value of Financial Instruments," requires disclosure of fair value
     information about financial instruments. The carrying amount of assets and
     liabilities reported on the balance sheets that require such disclosure
     approximates fair value due to their short-term maturity.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
         AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Partnership's primary sources of funds include interest income earned
     from investing available cash and distributions from limited partnerships
     in which the Partnership has invested. It is not expected that any of the
     local limited partnerships in which the Partnership has invested will
     generate cash flow sufficient to provide for distributions to limited
     partners in any material amount. The Partnership made a distributions to
     investors in March 12, 1999, previously using proceeds from the disposition
     of its investments in certain limited partnerships.

     RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Partnership revenues consist primarily of interest income earned on
     certificates of deposit and other temporary investment of funds not
     required for investment in local partnerships.

     Operating expenses consist primarily of recurring general and
     administrative expenses and professional fees for services rendered to the
     Partnership. In addition, an annual Partnership management fee in an amount
     equal to .4 percent of invested assets is payable to the corporate general
     partner.

     The Partnership accounts for its investments in the local limited
     partnerships on the equity method, thereby adjusting its investment balance
     by its proportionate share of the income or loss of the local limited
     partnerships. Losses incurred after the limited partnership investment
     account is reduced to zero are not recognized in accordance with the equity
     accounting method.

     Distributions received from limited partnerships are recognized as return
     of capital until the investment balance has been reduced to zero or to a
     negative amount equal to future capital contributions required. Subsequent
     distributions received are recognized as income.

     Except for certificates of deposit and money market funds the Partnership's
     investments are entirely interests in other limited partnerships owning
     government assisted projects. Available cash is invested in these funds
     earning interest income as reflected in the statements of operations. These
     investments can be converted to cash to meet obligations as they arise.

     Under recent adopted law and policy, the United States Department of
     Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") has determined not to renew the
     Housing Assistance Payment ("HAP") Contracts on a long term basis on the
     existing terms. In connection with renewals of the HAP Contracts under such
     new law and policy, the amount of rental assistance payments under renewed
     HAP Contracts will be based on market rentals instead of above market
     rentals, which was generally the case under existing HAP Contracts. The
     payments under the renewed HAP Contracts are not expected to be in an
     amount that would provide sufficient cash flow to permit owners of

     are restructured. In order to address the reduction in payments under HAP
     Contracts as a result of this new policy, the Multi-family Assisted Housing
     Reform and Affordability Act of 1997 ( "MAHRAA"), which was adopted in
     October 1997, provides for the restructuring of mortgage loans insured by
     the FHA with respect to properties subject to the Section 8 program. Under
     MAHRAA, an FHA-insured mortgage loan can be restructured into a first
     mortgage loan which will be amortized on a current basis and a low interest
     second mortgage loan payable to FHA which will only be payable on maturity
     of the first mortgage loan. This restructuring results in a reduction in
     annual debt service payable by the owner of the FHA-insured mortgage loan
     and is expected to result in an insurance payment from FHA to the holder of
     the FHA-insured loan due to the reduction in the principal amount. MAHRAA
     also phases out project-based subsidies on selected properties serving
     families not located in rental markets with limited supply, converting such
     subsidies to a tenant-based subsidy.

     On September 11, 1998, HUD issued interim regulations implementing MAHRAA

     MAHRAA. In addition, the economic impact on the Partnership of the
     combination of the reduced payments under the HAP Contracts and the
     restructuring of the existing FHA-insured mortgage loans under MAHRAA is
     uncertain.

     On December 30, 1998, after obtaining the consents of the limited partners,
     the Partnership sold its limited partnership interests in 7 local limited
     partnerships to affiliates of Casden Properties Inc. The sale resulted in
     cash proceeds to the Partnership of $5,250,000, which was collected in
     1999. In March 1999, the Partnership made cash distributions of $4,950,000
     to the limited partners and $50,000 to the general partners, primarily
     using proceeds from the sale of the partnership interests.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     On August 27, 1998, two investors holding an aggregate of eight units of
     limited partnership interests in Real Estate Associates Limited III (an
     affiliated partnership in which NAPICO is the managing general partner) and
     two investors holding an aggregate of five units of limited partnership
     interest in Real Estate Associates Limited VI (another affiliated
     partnership in which NAPICO is the managing general partner) commenced an
     action in the United States District Court for the Central District of
     California against the Partnership, NAPICO and certain other affiliated
     entities. The complaint alleges that the defendants breached their
     fiduciary duty to the limited partners of certain NAPICO managed
     partnerships and made materially false and misleading statements in the
     consent solicitation statements sent to the limited partners of such
     partnerships relating to approval of the transfer of partnership interests
     in limited partnerships, owning certain of the properties, to affiliates of
     Casden Properties Inc., organized by an affiliate of NAPICO. The plaintiffs
     seek equitable relief, as well as compensatory damages and litigation
     related costs. On August 4, 1999, one investor holding one unit of limited
     partnership interest in Housing Programs Limited (another affiliated
     partnership in which NAPICO is the managing general partner) commenced a
     virtually identical action in the United States District Court for the
     Central District of California against the Partnership, NAPICO and certain
     other affiliated entities. The managing general partner of such NAPICO
     managed partnerships and the other defendants believe that the plaintiffs'
     claims are without merit and intend to contest the actions vigorously.

     On December 30, 1998, the Operating Partnership acquired, for value, title
     to New Haven Plaza Associates' property in Far Rockaway, New York.
     Thereafter, NAPICO commenced an action for a declaratory judgment that
     NAPICO had the authority to transfer the property and that the value paid
     by the Operating Partnership for the property was fair. Defendants have
     pled counterclaims alleging that inter alia, NAPICO was not authorized to
     transfer the property and breached its fiduciary duties to the limited
     partners. Defendants also seek an accounting and distributions of surplus
     cash. The parties are in the process of conducting discovery.

     The corporate general partner is involved in various lawsuits. None of
     these lawsuits are related to the Partnership.
