                                    PART I

Item 1.  Description of Business

Consolidated Capital Properties III (the "Partnership") was organized on May
22, 1980, as a limited partnership under the California Uniform Limited
Partnership Act.  On November 25, 1980, the Partnership registered with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the Securities Act of
1933 (File No. 2-68018) and commenced a public offering for sale of $60
million of Units, with the General Partner's right to increase the offering to
$120 million.  The Units represent equity interests in the Partnership and
entitle the holders thereof to participate in certain allocations and
distributions of the Partnership.  The Partnership subsequently filed a Form
8-A Registration Statement with the SEC and registered its units under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (File No. 0-10273) in March 1982.  The sale of
Limited Partnership Units closed on December 17, 1981, with 158,945 Units sold
at $500 each, or gross proceeds of $79.5 million to the Partnership.  At the
request of certain Limited Partners and in accordance with its Partnership
Agreement (herein so called), the Partnership has retired a total of 309
Units.  The Partnership gave no consideration for these units.

By the end of fiscal 1985, approximately 71% of the monies raised had been
invested in twenty-eight properties.  Of the remaining 29%, 11% was required
for organizational and offering expenses, sales commissions and acquisition
fees, and 18% was retained in Partnership reserves for project improvements
and working capital as required by the Partnership Agreement.

The General Partner of the Partnership is ConCap Equities, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "General Partner" or "CEI").  The principal place of business
for the Partnership and for the General Partner is One Insignia Financial
Plaza, Greenville, South Carolina  29602.

The Partnership's primary business and only industry segment is real estate
related operations.  The Partnership was formed to acquire, own, operate and
ultimately dispose of income-producing real properties for the benefit of its
partners.  At December 31, 1995, the Partnership owns five properties as
described in "Item 2 - Description of Property".  Prior to 1995, the
Partnership disposed of twenty-five (25) properties, two  of which were
reacquired through foreclosure.  

On September 25, 1995, the General Partner proxied the Limited Partners to
modify the  Partnership Agreement to eliminate the minimum working capital
reserve requirement whereby reserves had been required to be greater than the
5% of Net Invested Capital.  On October 31, 1995, the proposals were adopted
with a majority of the outstanding units approving the proposals.  See "Item 4
- - Submission of Matters To A Vote of Security Holders" and "Item 6 -
Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operations", for a discussion
of Partnership liquidity and capital resources.    

The real estate business is highly competitive.  The Registrant's real
property investments are subject to competition from similar types of
properties in the vicinities in which they are located and the Partnership is
not a significant factor in its industry.  In addition, various limited
partnerships have been formed by related parties to engage in business which
may be competitive with the Registrant.

The Registrant has no employees.  Management and administrative services are
performed by affiliates of Insignia Financial Group, Inc. ("Insignia"), an
affiliate of the General Partner.  The property manager is responsible for the
day-to-day operations of each property.  The General Partner has also selected
affiliates of Insignia to provide real estate advisory and asset management
services to the Partnership.  As advisor, such affiliates provide all
partnership accounting and administrative services, investment management, and
supervisory services over property management and leasing.  For a further
discussion of property and partnership management, see "Item 12".

Upon the Partnership's formation in 1980, Consolidated Capital Equities
Corporation ("CCEC"), a Colorado corporation, was the corporate general
partner.  In 1988, through a series of transactions, Southmark Corporation
("Southmark") acquired controlling interest in CCEC.  In December 1988, CCEC
filed for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy
Code.  In 1990, as part of CCEC's reorganization plan, CEI acquired CCEC's
general partner interests in the Partnership and in 15 other affiliated public
limited partnerships (the "Affiliated Partnerships") and CEI replaced CCEC as
managing general partner in all 16 partnerships.  The selection of CEI as the
sole managing general partner was approved by a majority of the Limited
Partners in the Partnership and in each of the Affiliated Partnerships
pursuant to a solicitation of the Limited Partners dated August 10, 1990.  As
part of this solicitation, the Limited Partners also approved an amendment to
the Partnership Agreement to limit changes of control of the Partnership.

All of CEI's outstanding stock is owned by GII Realty, Inc.  In December 1994,
the parent of GII Realty, Inc., entered into a transaction (the "Insignia
Transaction") in which among other things, MAE-ICC, Inc., a wholly owned
subsidiary of Metropolitan Asset Enhancement, L.P., ("MAE"), and an affiliate
of Insignia acquired an option (exercisable in whole or in part from time to
time) to purchase all of the stock of GII Realty, Inc. and, pursuant to a
partial exercise of such option, acquired 50.5% of that stock.  As a part of
the Insignia Transaction, MAE-ICC, Inc. also acquired all of the outstanding
stock of Partnership Services, Inc., an asset management entity, and Insignia
acquired all of the outstanding stock of Coventry Properties, Inc., a property
management entity.  In addition, confidentiality, non-competition, and
standstill  arrangements were entered into between certain of the parties. 
Those arrangements, among other things, prohibit GII Realty's former sole
shareholder from purchasing Partnership Units for a period of three years.  On
October 24, 1995, MAE-ICC, Inc. exercised the remaining portion of its option
to purchase all of the remaining outstanding capital stock of GII Realty, Inc. 
 

Item 2.  Description of Property

The Partnership originally acquired twenty-eight properties, of which twenty-
five were disposed of in years prior to 1995, and subsequently reacquired two
of these properties through foreclosure on notes receivable.  At December 31,
1995, the Partnership held five income-producing properties, including one
office building and four apartment complexes.

The rate is per unit for the apartment properties.

As noted under "Item 1. Description of Business," the real estate industry is
highly competitive.  The Partnership's properties are subject to competition
from other properties in their area.  The Managing General Partner believes
that the Partnership's properties are adequately insured.

The decrease in occupancy at the Mountain Plaza Apartments is due to the
decline in the El Paso market resulting from military spending cuts.  The
increase in occupancy at the Ventura Landing Apartments is due to the improved
image of the property resulting from upgrading the tenant population.

Item 3.  Legal Proceedings

In November 1994, Robert Lewis filed an alleged class action in the United
States District Court for the Northern District of California seeking
declaratory and injunctive relief, but not monetary damages in connection with
a tender offer by LP 4 Acceptance Corporation for limited partnership units of
the Partnership.  The complaint named ConCap Equities, Inc., the general
partner of the Partnership, LP 4 Acceptance Corporation and one other party as
defendants.  The tender offer was terminated in December 1994.  In January
1995, the Plaintiff amended the complaint to add Insignia, MAE, and MAE-ICC,
Inc. as additional defendants in connection with a new tender offer commenced
by Insignia CCP III Acquisition L.L.C. but the added defendants were not
properly served.  The tender offer closed on January 20, 1995, and the offeror
purchased the tendered units.  Plaintiff Lewis filed a Stipulation for
Dismissal of Case Without Prejudice in June of 1995 which requested the Court
to dismiss the above action without prejudice and without costs to any party. 
The Court approved the stipulation on July 21, 1995.

In November of 1994, C.E. and Berniece Patterson, each of whom is a limited
partner of the Partnership, filed an action in the United States District Court
for the Northern District of California seeking declaratory and injunctive
relief, but not monetary damages, alleging, among other things, that a tender
offer by LP 4 Acceptance Corporation for limited partnership units of the
Partnership violated the federal securities laws and the partnership agreements
and breached the general partner's fiduciary duties.  The complaint named
ConCap Equities, Inc., the general partner of the Partnership and others as
defendants.  These actions were filed by the Pattersons as individuals and were
not class actions.  The tender offer was terminated in December 1994.  In
December 1994, the complaint in this action was amended to include Insignia,
MAE and MAE-ICC, Inc. and others as defendants in connection with a tender
offer commenced in December 1994 by Insignia CCP III Acquisition, L.L.C. for
limited partnership units of the Partnership.  On January 20, 1995, the
District Court denied Plaintiffs' motion for a preliminary injunction to enjoin
the tender offer.  The tender offer closed on January 20, 1995, and the offeror
purchased the tendered units.  C.E. and Berniece Patterson had also initiated
other causes of action against two affiliated entities, which held limited
partnership units in Consolidated Capital Properties IV and Consolidated
Capital Properties VI regarding other tender offers.  On March 31, 1995, the
parties to the above referenced actions entered into a settlement agreement and
a standstill agreement for all actions pursuant to which (i) Plaintiffs filed a
notice of dismissal with respect to the first amended complaints in the
actions; (ii) Plaintiffs and defendants released each other from all claims
which were or could have been asserted in connection with the first amended
complaints in the actions; (iii) Plaintiffs and MacKenzie Patterson, Inc.
("MacKenzie) will refrain from certain activities relating to the acquisition
of limited partnership units in any partnership of which Insignia or any of its
affiliates is a general partner; (iv) Plaintiffs and their affiliates granted
to a subsidiary of Insignia a right of first refusal in connection with the
sale of limited partnership interests in the Partnership by plaintiffs; and (v)
Plaintiffs and their affiliates will assign to a subsidiary of Insignia
irrevocable proxies to vote any limited partnership interests in Consolidated
Capital Properties VI acquired by MacKenzie as a result of the tender offer by
MacKenzie and affiliates to acquire limited partnership interests in
Consolidated Capital Properties VI or thereafter.

The Partnership is a defendant in a lawsuit filed on March 4, 1994 by an
employee of the previous property management company alleging wrongful
termination.  The defendants are vigorously contesting the case.  Based on the
current status of the litigation, no determination can be made regarding the
outcome or any possible estimates of losses, if any.

The Partnership is not a party to, nor are any of the Partnership's properties
the subject of, any material pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary
litigation routine to the Partnership's business (the "Proposals").


Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

On September 25, 1995, the General Partner proxied the Limited Partners to
modify the Partnership Agreement.

The General Partner formulated the Proposals as a means of increasing
operational flexibility and improving Partnership operations.  The Proposals
seek to achieve these goals by amending the Partnership Agreement to modify
certain existing capital reserve and property disposition limitations. 
Proposal 1 provides the General Partner with additional flexibility in
establishing the timing and amount of distributions by eliminating the
requirements that the Partnership maintain reserves equal to at least 5% of
Invested Capital and distribute any net economic gains realized upon the sale
of any Partnership assets within 90 days of the close of the fiscal year in
which such gains are realized.  Proposal 2 provides the General Partner with
the authority to take advantage of certain property disposition opportunities
by authorizing the General Partner to sell multiple properties that represent
less than 50% of the net book value of all of the Partnership's properties as
of the end of the most recently completed calendar quarter to the same
purchaser or its affiliates in any six-month period or any single Partnership
property, without obtaining Limited Partner approval. Importantly, Proposal 2
did not seek to modify the Partnership Agreement provision prohibiting
Partnership property sales to the General Partner or its affiliates.

This matter was open until October 25, 1995.  In regards to Proposal 1, the
unitholders voted 51% in favor of the matter, 9% opposed or abstained and 40%
did not respond.  In regards to Proposal 2, the unitholders voted 51% in favor
of the matter, 9% opposed or abstained and 40% did not respond.  Accordingly,
the proposals were adopted with a majority of the outstanding units approving
the proposals.


                                    PART II


Item 5. Market for the Registrant's Units of Limited Partnership and Related
        Security Holder Matters

(A)     No established public trading market for the Partnership's Units exists
        nor is one expected to develop.

(B)     Title of Class                    Number of Unit Holders of Record

        Limited Partnership Units         7,641 as of December 31, 1995


(C)     There were no distributions to the Limited Partners during 1994.  In
        January 1995, the Partnership declared distributions, representing
        return of capital, totalling approximately $1,428,000 to the Partners. 
        In December 1995, the Partnership declared and paid distributions,
        representing a return of capital, totalling approximately $905,000 to
        the Partners.  Additionally, the Partnership declared and paid
        distributions in December of 1995, attributable to cash flow from
        operations, totalling approximately $640,000 to the Partners.  See also
        "Item 6 - Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operations".

(D)     On January 20, 1995, an affiliate of the General Partner, Insignia CCP
        III Acquisition, L.L.C., closed an offer to purchase Units (the "Tender
        Offer") for a cash price of $50.00 per Unit to Limited Partners of
        record as of December 15, 1994.  Approximately 2,260 Limited Partners
        holding 36,951 Units (23.29% of total Units) accepted the Tender Offer
        and sold their Units to Insignia CCP III Acquisition, L.L.C. effective
        January 20, 1995, for an aggregate sales price of approximately $1.8
        million.


Item 6.  Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operations

Results of Operations

The Partnership realized a net loss from operations of $775,000 for the year
ended December 31, 1995, compared to a net loss from operations of $1,443,000
for the year ended December 31, 1994.  The decreased net loss is  due primarily
to the sale of the Cascadian and Mission Village Apartment properties and the
foreclosure of the Sturbridge Square Apartment property in the second quarter
of 1994.

Rental income decreased for the year ended December 31, 1995,  compared to the
year ended December 31, 1994, due primarily to the property sales and
foreclosure noted above.  Lost revenues from foreclosed and sold properties
represented 97% of the total change in rental income for the year ended
December 31, 1995, partially offset by rental increases at the Partnership's
properties.  Interest and other income decreased for 1995, compared to 1994 due
to decreased interest income from the Columns of Castleton note receivable,
which was collected in March of 1995 (See "Note F" in the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements).  In 1994, the Partnership realized other income due to
the receipt of the Partnership's prorata share of the claims filed in
Southmark's Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceeding (See "Note C" in the Notes to the
Consolidated Financial Statements).  

Property operations, depreciation and amortization and interest expense
decreased for the year ended December 31, 1995, compared to the year ended
December 31, 1994, due primarily to the disposition of Cascadian, Mission
Village and Sturbridge Square in the second quarter of 1994.  The decrease in
interest expense was also impacted by the retirement of notes payable secured
by the Professional Plaza Office Building and the Village Green Apartments in
August 1995 (See "Note I" in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial
Statements).  Administrative expenses increased for the year ended December 31,
1995, compared to the year ended December 31, 1994, due to increased legal,
printing and postage costs associated with the Partnership's required responses
to various tender offers (See "Item 3. Legal Proceedings") and increased
expense reimbursements related to the combined efforts of the Dallas and
Greenville partnership administration staffs during the transition period in
the first and second quarters of 1995.  The reimbursements for the Dallas
office amounted to approximately $142,000 during the year ended December 31,
1995.   

The increased costs related to the transition efforts were incurred to minimize
any disruption in the year-end reporting function including the financial
reporting and K-1 preparation and distribution.  The General Partner expects
recurring administrative expenses to be reduced now that the management
transition is complete.

At December 31, 1994, the Partnership was obligated under two mortgage notes
payable aggregating $963,000, net of a $119,000 mortgage discount, secured by
the Professional Plaza Office Building.  The $734,000 first-lien note, with an
original maturity of April 1996, and the $301,000 second-lien note, with an
original maturity of November 2000, were paid off in August 1995, to retire
debt with interest rates higher than the current market rate.  The Partnership
realized a loss of $110,000 on the transactions, resulting from $99,000 of non-
cash expenses to amortize the remaining mortgage discounts associated with the
retired notes and $11,000 of prepayment penalties paid on the early
extinguishment of the debt.


At December 31, 1994, the Partnership was obligated under a mortgage note
payable in the amount of $615,000 secured by the Village Green Apartments.  The
$557,000 first lien note, with an original maturity of May 1997, was paid off
in August 1995, to retire debt with interest rates higher than the current
market rate.  The Partnership realized a loss of $6,000 on the transaction
resulting from prepayment penalties paid on the early extinguishment of the
debt.

In June of 1994, the Cascadian Apartments was sold for net sales proceeds of
approximately $2,722,000 after repayment of $4,282,000 of related mortgage
debt, which resulted in a gain of $5,229,000 for the year ended December 31,
1994 (See "Note G" in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in
"Item 1").  Also in June of 1994, HUD foreclosed upon the Sturbridge Square
Apartments which resulted in a gain of $6,964,000 on the disposition of the
real estate and an extraordinary gain of $1,769,000 on the extinguishment of
the related debt (See "Note H" in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial
Statements).

At December 31, 1993, the Partnership was obligated under a $1.3 million
wraparound mortgage note secured by the Mission Village Apartments.  The
$758,000 underlying first- lien was repaid in July 1994.  In August 1994, the
Partnership sold Mission Village for net sales proceeds of approximately $1.6
million after closing costs and repayment of approximately $485,000 of related
mortgage debt.  The Partnership recognized a gain of approximately $1.4 million
on the sale during the third quarter of 1994 (See "Note G" in the Notes to the
Consolidated Financial Statements).  

As part of the ongoing business plan of the Partnership, the General Partner
monitors the rental market environment of each 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

As of December 31, 1995, the Partnership held cash and cash equivalents of
$2,854,000 compared to $2,090,000 at December 31, 1994.   Net cash provided by
operating activities increased primarily due to the absence of negative cash
flows from the properties disposed of in 1994, as discussed above.  Net cash
provided by investing activities increased due to increased sales proceeds from
securities and the collection of the Columns of Castleton note receivable in
March of 1995 (See "Note F" in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial
Statements).  The current year increase in cash provided by investing
activities was partially offset by the receipt of non-recurring proceeds from
the sale of Cascadian Apartments and Mission Village Apartments in 1994 (See
"Note G" in Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements).  Net cash used in
financing activities increased due to the Partners' distributions in January
and December of 1995. 

The Partnership modified its Partnership Agreement in the fourth quarter of
1995 to eliminate the requirement that the Partnership maintain reserves equal
to at least 5% of invested capital (See "Item 4 - Submission of Matters to a
Vote of Security Holders").  Reserves, including cash and cash equivalents and
securities available for sale totalling approximately $3 million at December
31, 1995, were deemed to be sufficient by the General Partner to fund the
Partnership's liquidity requirements in 1995.

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 meet other operating needs of the partnership.  Such assets are
currently thought to be sufficient for any near-term needs of the Partnership. 
The mortgage indebtedness of approximately $3.5 million secured by the Mountain
Plaza Apartments matures in September of 2000 with a balloon payment due at
maturity, at which time the property will either be refinanced or sold.  The
mortgage indebtedness of approximately $3.2 million secured by the Ventura
Landing Apartments matures in May of 1996 with a balloon payment due at
maturity.  The Partnership is currently attempting to refinance this debt. 
Future cash distributions will depend on the levels of net cash generated from
operations, capital expenditure requirements, property sales and the
availability of cash reserves.  During 1995, distributions in the amount of
$2,973,000 were declared and paid.  No cash distributions were made in 1994.

On January 20, 1995, an affiliate of the General Partner, Insignia CCP III
Acquisition, L.L.C., closed an offer to purchase Units (the "Tender Offer") for
a cash price of $50.00 per Unit from Limited Partners of record as of December
15, 1994.  Approximately 2,260 Limited Partners holding 36,951 Units (23.29% of
total Units) accepted the Tender Offer and sold their Units to Insignia CCP III
Acquisition, L.L.C. effective January 20, 1995, for an aggregate sales price of
approximately $1.8 million.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                               December 31, 1995


Note A - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization

Consolidated Capital Properties III, a California limited partnership (the
"Partnership"), was formed on May 22, 1980, to acquire and operate commercial
and residential properties.  As of December 31, 1995, the Partnership owns four
residential properties and one commercial property located in or near major
urban areas in the United States.  

At the time of the Partnership's formation, Consolidated Capital Equities
Corporation ("CCEC"), a Colorado corporation, was the corporate general partner
and Consolidated Capital Management Company ("CCMC"), a California general
partnership, was the non-corporate general partner.  In 1988, through a series
of transactions, Southmark Corporation ("Southmark") acquired controlling
interest in CCEC.  In December 1988, CCEC filed for reorganization under
Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code.  As part of CCEC's
reorganization plan, ConCap Equities, Inc. (the "General Partner" or "CEI")
acquired CCEC's general partner interests in the Partnership and in 15 other
affiliated public limited partnerships (the "Affiliated Partnerships") and CEI
replaced CCEC as managing general partner in all 16 partnerships.  As part of
the solicitation for approval of CEI as general partner, the limited partners
also approved the conversion of CCMC from a general partner to a limited
partner, thereby leaving CEI as the sole general partner of the Partnership.

All of CEI's outstanding stock is owned by GII Realty, Inc.  In December 1994,
the parent of GII Realty, Inc., entered into a transaction (the "Insignia
Transaction") in which among other things, MAE-ICC, Inc., a wholly owned
subsidiary of Metropolitan Asset Enhancement, L.P., ("MAE") and an affiliate of
Insignia acquired an option (exercisable in whole or in part from time to time)
to purchase all of the stock of GII Realty, Inc. and, pursuant to a partial
exercise of such option, acquired 50.5% of that stock.  As part of the Insignia
Transaction, MAE-ICC, Inc. also acquired all of the outstanding stock of
Partnership Services, Inc., an asset management entity, and Insignia acquired
all of the outstanding stock of Coventry Properties, Inc., a property
management entity.  In addition, confidentiality, non-competition, and
standstill  arrangements were entered into between certain of the parties. 
Those arrangements, among other things, prohibit GII Realty's former sole
shareholder from purchasing Partnership Units for a period of three years.  On
October 24, 1995, MAE-ICC, Inc. exercised the remaining portion of its option
to purchase all of the remaining outstanding stock of GII Realty, Inc.

Consolidation

The Partnership's financial statements include the accounts of Sturbridge
Partners, Ltd. (1994 only), ConCap Mountain Plaza Associates, Ltd., CCP III
Associates, Ltd. and ConCap Village Green Associates, Ltd., four wholly-owned
limited partnerships.  All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

Investment Properties

Prior to 1995, investment properties were carried at the lower of cost or
estimated fair value, which was determined using the higher of the property's
non-recourse debt amount, when applicable, or the net operating income of the
investment property capitalized at a rate deemed reasonable for the type of
property.  During 1995, the Partnership adopted FASB Statement No. 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets
to Be Disposed Of", which requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-
lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and
the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less
than the assets' carrying amount.  The impairment loss is measured by comparing
the fair value of the asset to its carrying amount.  The effect of adoption was
not material.

Depreciation

Buildings and improvements are depreciated on the straight-line basis over an
estimated useful life of 3 to 19 years.  Tenant improvements are depreciated
over the term of the lease.  

Cash:
     Unrestricted - Unrestricted cash includes cash on hand, demand deposits,
money market funds, and U.S. Treasury Bills with original maturities of three
months or less.  At certain times the amount of cash deposited at a bank may
exceed the limit on insured deposits.

     Restricted cash - tenant security deposits - The Partnership requires
security deposits from new lessees for the duration of the lease with such
deposits being considered restricted cash. Deposits are refunded when the
tenant vacates, provided the tenant has not damaged its space and is current on
its rental payments.

Reclassification

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1994 information to conform to
the 1995 presentation.

Fair Value

In 1995, the Partnership implemented Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 107, "Disclosure about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,"
which requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments
for which it is practicable to estimate that value.  The carrying amount of the
Partnership's cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value due to short-
term maturities.  The Partnership estimates the fair value of its fixed rate
mortgages by discounted cash flow analysis, based on estimated borrowing rates
currently available to the Partnership.  

Note A - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Lease Commissions

Lease commissions are capitalized and amortized using the straight-line method
over the life of the applicable lease and are included in prepaid expenses and
other assets.

Loan Costs

Loan costs are capitalized and amortized by the straight-line method over the
lives of the related notes.  The unamortized balance of the loan costs is
included in prepaid expenses and other assets.

Rental Income

The Partnership leases its residential property under short-term operating
leases.  Lease terms are generally one year or less in duration.  The
Partnership expects that in the normal course of business these leases will be
renewed or replaced by other leases.  Commercial property leases vary from one
to six years.

Income Taxes

No provision has been made in the financial statements for Federal income
taxes.  Under current law, no Federal income taxes are paid directly by the
Partnership, however, the Partners are responsible for their respective shares
of Partnership net income or loss.  The Partnership reports certain
transactions differently for tax than for financial statement purposes.

The tax basis of the Partnership's assets and liabilities is approximately
$12.8 million  greater than the assets and liabilities as reported in the
financial statements.

Allocation of Net Income and Net Loss

The Partnership Agreement provides for net income and net losses for both
financial and tax reporting purposes to be allocated 96% to the Limited
Partners and 4% to the General Partner.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs of $75,000 in 1995, and $131,000 in 1994 are charged to
expenses as incurred and are included in operating expenses.

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 amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying
notes.  Actual results could differ from those estimates. 

Note B - Related Party Transactions

The Partnership has paid the property management fees noted below based upon
collected gross rental revenues ("Rental Revenues") for property management
services for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.  For the
year ended December 31, 1994, a portion of such property management fees equal
to 4% of Rental Revenues was paid to the property management companies
performing day-to-day property management services and a portion equal to 1% of
Rental Revenues was paid to Partnership Services, Inc. ("PSI") for advisory
services related to day-to-day operations.  Prior to July 1993, day-to-day
property management services were provided to the Partnership properties by
unaffiliated management companies.  In July 1993, Coventry Properties, Inc.
("Coventry"), an affiliate of the General Partner, assumed day-to-day property
management responsibilities for two of the Partnership's properties under the
same management fee arrangement as the unaffiliated management companies. 
Coventry assumed day-to-day property management responsibilities for one
additional Partnership property in January 1994.  An affiliate of the General
Partner assumed day-to-day property management responsibilities for the
remaining two properties in December 1994.  In late December 1994, an affiliate
of Insignia assumed day-to-day property management responsibilities for all of
the Partnership's properties.  Fees paid to Insignia and affiliates for the
year ended December 31, 1995, and fees paid to PSI and Coventry for the year
ended December 31, 1994, have been reflected below as compensation to related
parties in the applicable periods:
                                                                              
                                                 Years Ended December 31,  
                                                  1995              1994 
                                                     (in thousands)   
      Property management fees                    $220              $172 
                                                     
                                                                       
The Limited Partnership Agreement ("Partnership Agreement") provides for a
special management fee equal to 9% of the total distributions made to the
limited partners to be paid to the General Partner for executive and
administrative management services.  The Partnership paid $55,000 to affiliates
of the General Partner during 1995 under  this provision of the Partnership
Agreement.  No such fees were paid or accrued in 1994.            

The Partnership Agreement also provides for reimbursement to the General
Partner and its affiliates for costs incurred in connection with the
administration of Partnership activities.  The General Partner and its
affiliates, which includes Coventry for the year ended December 31, 1994,
received reimbursements as reflected below:

                                                 Years Ended December 31,  
                                                  1995              1994 
                                                     (in thousands)   
      Reimbursement for services of affiliates    $279              $232 



Note B - Related Party Transactions (continued)

In 1995, the Partnership also paid fees of $24,000 to an affiliate of Insignia
for leasing commissions on the lease of its commercial building.  Of these
costs, $4,000 was expensed and $20,000 was capitalized and will be amortized
over the terms of the respective leases.

On January 20, 1995, an affiliate of the General Partner, Insignia CCP III
Acquisition, L.L.C., closed an offer to purchase Units (the "Tender Offer") for
a cash price of $50.00 per Unit to Limited Partners of record as of December
15, 1994.  Approximately 2,260 Limited Partners holding 36,951 Units (23.29% of
total Units) accepted the Tender Offer and sold their Units to Insignia CCP III
Acquisition, L.L.C. effective January 20, 1995, for an aggregate sales price of
approximately $1.8 million.

In July 1995, the Partnership began insuring its properties 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 to the affiliate of the General Partner, who
receives payment 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.

Note C - Other Income

In 1991, the Partnership (and simultaneously other affiliated partnerships)
entered claims in Southmark Corporation's Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceeding. 
These claims related to Southmark Corporation's activities while it exercised
control (directly or indirectly through its affiliates) over the Partnership. 
The Bankruptcy Court set the Partnership's and the other affiliated
partnerships' allowed claim at an aggregate $11 million.  In March 1994, the
Partnership received 1,168 shares of Southmark Corporation Redeemable Series A
Preferred Stock and 8,545 shares of Southmark Corporation New Common Stock with
an aggregate market value on the date of receipt of approximately $9,000 and
$64,000 in cash representing the Partnership's share of the recovery, based on
its pro rata share of the claims filed.

Note D - Commitment

The Partnership modified its Partnership Agreement in the fourth quarter of
1995 to eliminate the requirement that the Partnership maintain reserves equal
to at least 5% of invested capital as defined in the Partnership Agreement. 
Reserves, including cash and cash equivalents and securities available for sale
totalling approximately $3 million at December 31, 1995, were deemed to be
sufficient by the General Partner to fund the Partnership's liquidity
requirements in 1995.

Note E - Distributions

In January of 1995, the General Partner declared and paid distributions,
representing a return of capital, as defined in the partnership agreement of
approximately $1,428,000.  In December 1995, the General Partner declared and
paid distributions, representing a return of capital, totalling approximately
$905,000 to the Partners.  Additionally, the Partnership declared and paid
distributions in December 1995, attributable to cash flow from operations,
totalling approximately $640,000 to the Partners.

Note F - Collection of Note Receivable

In October of 1988, the Partnership accepted a $2.1 million note receivable in
connection with the sale of the Columns of Castleton Apartments.  In March of
1995, the Partnership collected the outstanding balance of approximately $2.3
million, which represented the original principal balance, plus unpaid
interest, in payment of the borrower's liability under the note agreement.

Note G - Sale of Real Estate

In August 1994, the Partnership sold the Mission Village Apartments for net
sales proceeds of approximately $1.6 million, after closing costs and repayment
of approximately $485,000 of related mortgage debt.  The Partnership realized a
gain of approximately $1.4 million on the sale during the third quarter of
1994.

In June 1994, the Cascadian Apartments was sold for net sales proceeds of
approximately $2.7 million after repayment of $4.3 million of related mortgage
debt.  The Partnership recognized a gain of approximately $5.2 million on the
sale.  

Note G - Sale of Real Estate (continued)

The two sales transactions are summarized as follows (amounts in thousands):

     (a)  Amount is net of unamortized mortgage discount.
     (b)  Real estate at cost, net of accumulated depreciation of approximately
          $6.1 million.


Note H - Disposition of Real Estate

In November 1989, the Partnership ceased making debt service payments on the
U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") financed loan secured
by the Sturbridge Square Apartments because cash flow from property operations
did not support these scheduled payments, and in the General Partner's opinion,
the property was leveraged in excess of its economic value.  The General
Partner informed HUD that it would cooperate with HUD's planned sale of the
property, and in June 1994, the property was foreclosed upon by HUD.  The
Partnership recognized a gain of approximately $7 million on the disposition of
the real estate and an extraordinary gain of approximately $1.8 million on
extinguishment of the related debt.  

Note H - Disposition of Real Estate (continued)

The following noncash investing and financing amounts (in thousands) were
recorded in the consolidated financial statements at December 31, 1994:

          (a)   Amount is net of accumulated depreciation of approximately $6.6
                million.
          (b)   Amount includes accrued interest.
          (c)   The gain on disposition of real estate represents the difference
                between the carrying value of the real estate and the estimated
                fair value of the property at disposition.  The gain is included
                in "Gain on disposition of real estate" in the accompanying
                consolidated financial statements.
          (d)   The gain on extinguishment of debt represents the difference
                between the estimated fair value of the property at foreclosure
                and the amount of debt, including accrued interest,
                extinguished.  The gain is reflected as an extraordinary item in
                the accompanying consolidated financial statements.


Note I - Repayment of Notes Payable

At December 31, 1994, the Partnership was obligated under two mortgage notes
payable aggregating $963,000, net of a $119,000 mortgage discount, secured by
the Professional Plaza Office Building.  The $734,000 first lien-note, with an
original maturity of April 1996, and the $301,000 second-lien note, with an
original maturity of November 2000, were paid off in August 1995, to retire
debt with interest rates higher than the current market rate.  The Partnership
realized a loss of $110,000 on the transactions, resulting from $99,000 of non-
cash expenses to amortize the remaining mortgage discounts associated with the
retired notes and $11,000 of prepayment penalties paid on the early
extinguishment of the debt.

Note I - Repayment of Notes Payable (continued)

At December 31, 1994, the Partnership was obligated under a mortgage note
payable in the amount of $615,000 secured by the Village Green Apartments.  The
$557,000 first-lien note, with an original maturity of May 1997, was paid off
in August 1995, to retire debt with interest rates higher than the current
market rate.  The Partnership realized a loss of $6,000 on the transaction
resulting from prepayment penalties paid on the early extinguishment of the
debt.  

At December 31, 1993, the Partnership was obligated under a $1.3 million
wraparound mortgage note secured by the Mission Village Apartments.  The
$758,000 underlying first- lien note, originally maturing in July 1993, was
extended for 12 months in exchange for a principal payment of $100,000, and was
repaid in conjunction with the sale of the property noted in "Note G".  The
Partnership realized a loss of $222,000 on the note pay-off resulting from a
non-cash expense to amortize the remaining mortgage discount associated with
that portion of the retired debt.

At December 31, 1993, the Partnership was obligated under two mortgage notes
payable aggregating $2.5 million secured by The Village Green Apartments.  One
of the notes, a $1.8 million second-lien, was paid at par value at its maturity
in August 1994.  No gain or loss was realized on the transaction.

Note K - Operating Leases
(dollar amounts in thousands)

The Partnership leases its residential properties under short-term operating
leases.  Lease terms are generally one year or less in duration.  The
Partnership expects that in the normal course of business these leases will be
renewed or replaced by other leases.  Commercial office property leases vary
from one to six years.  The future minimum rental payments at the Partnership's
commercial property to be received under operating leases that have initial or
remaining noncancellable lease terms in excess of one year as of December 31,
1995 are as follows:

For leases with scheduled rental increases, rental income is recognized on a
straight-line basis over the life of the applicable leases.  There is no
assurance that this income will continue at the same level when the leases
expire.

The aggregate cost of the real estate for Federal income tax purposes at
December 31, 1995 and 1994 is approximately $23,792,000 and $23,409,000.  The
accumulated depreciation taken for Federal income tax purposes at December 31,
1995 and 1994, is approximately $14,041,000 and $13,123,000, respectively.

Note M - Abandoned Limited Partnership Units

For the year ended December 31, 1994, the number of Limited Partnership Units
decreased by 154 units, due to limited partners abandoning their units.  In
abandoning Limited Partnership Units, a limited partner relinquishes all right,
title and interest in the Partnership as of the date of abandonment. 

Note N - Contingency

The Partnership is a defendant in a lawsuit filed on March 4, 1994 by an
employee of the previous property management company alleging wrongful
termination.  The defendants are vigorously contesting the case.  Based on the
current status of the litigation, no determination can be made regarding the
outcome or any possible estimates of losses, if any.

          Financial Disclosure
