                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At March 31, 1996, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of $996,485
which will be used for working capital requirements of the Partnership and its
properties. It is anticipated that the Partnership will be able to meet current
obligations and commitments from cash on hand and from cash generated from
operations during 1996.

Distributions to partners were made during the first quarter of 1996 in the
amount of $132.50 per limited partnership unit to holders of units on December
31, 1995. Distributions were made in April following the close of the first
quarter of 1996 in the amount of $75.00 per limited Partnership unit to holders
of units on March 31, 1996.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The General Partner, after reasonable inquiry, is not aware of any material
factors relating to any of the Partnership's properties or the operations of the
Partnership that would cause the financial information of the Partnership not to
be indicative of future operating results or of future financial conditions,
other than those discussed below and in the footnotes to the Partnership
financial statements filed with Form 10K.

Gross rental income was $1,358,405 and $1,290,213 for the first quarter of 1996
and 1995 respectively. This is an increase of $68,192 or 5.3% in the average
apartment rental rates for the properties. Vacancy was $43,073 or 3.2% and
$30,747 or 2.4% for the first quarter of 1996 and 1995 respectively. Although
there was an increase in vacancy, this was more than offset by increased rental
rates resulting in a $55,866 increase in rental income. The decrease in
occupancy is a result of two factors. The first, and most significant factor, is
the residents' purchases of homes. Over the course of the last two years, market
rental rates have been rising while mortgage interest rates have been falling.
This combination has made home ownership a viable and attractive option for
residents that have the ability to make a down payment. The second, and less
significant factor, is the construction of new multifamily housing. Interest
rates have begun to rise which may limit home purchases. We expect those
residents that could afford to buy homes to have now done so.

Operating expenses were $686,654 and $675,468 for the first quarter of 1996 and
1995 respectively. The increase of just $11,186 was due to an increase in real
estate taxes.

Net operating income was $152,917 and $112,632 in the first quarter of 1996 and
1995 respectively. The increase of $40,285 was due mainly to rising revenue
which was a result of increased rental rates.

Candleridge and Villas of Partricia Park Apartments are being marketed for sale.
Neither property is currently under any formal purchase contract.

                                OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

                 On September 20, 1995 Everest Investors, LLC ("Everest") filed
         a lawsuit against Investment Associates ("General Partner"), the
         general partner of Griffin Real Estate Fund-II, A Limited Partnership
         ("Partnership"). The lawsuit alleged that the General Partner had
         wrongfully denied Everest access to the books and records of the
         Partnership. The court granted, in part, Everest's request for access
         to the books and records and ordered the General Partner to provide
         Everest access to these records. The General Partner complied with this
         court order. Everest continued to seek access to additional books and
         records of the Partnership beyond the scope of the court order. The
         General Partner vigorously defended the Partnership's right to keep its
         proprietary records from being reviewed by Everest, who is not a
         limited partner of the Partnership. The General Partner filed for a
         dismissal of the matter. The court heard arguments on September 29,
         1995, October 26, 1995 and November 17, 1995. On November 27, 1995 the
         court dismissed Everest's lawsuit. Everest appealed the dismissal on
         March 12, 1996 and a decision is pending.

                 On February 9, 1996 Everest filed a proxy solicitation with the
         Securities and Exchange Commission. It was revised and re-filed on
         April 2, 1996.
