ITEM 1.  BUSINESS 

(a) GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND OBJECTIVES

ConAm Realty Investors 81 L.P., formerly known as Hutton/ConAm Realty 
Investors 81 (the "Partnership"), is a California limited partnership formed 
on April 30, 1981.  ConAm Property Services, Ltd. ("CPS"), a California 
limited partnership, and RI-81 Real Estate Services Inc. ("RI-81"), a 
Delaware corporation, were the original co-general partners of the 
Partnership.  On October 8, 1997, CPS acquired RI-81's co-general partner 
interest in the Partnership, effective July 1, 1997, pursuant to a Purchase 
Agreement between CPS and RI-81 dated August 29, 1997.  As a result, CPS now 
serves as the sole general partner (the "General Partner") of the 
Partnership.  In conjunction with this transaction, the name of the 
Partnership was changed from Hutton/ConAm Realty Investors 81 to ConAm Realty 
Investors 81 L.P.

The Partnership was organized to engage in the business of acquiring, 
operating and holding for investment multi-family residential properties.  
The Partnership originally invested in two joint ventures and three limited 
partnerships, each of which was formed to own a specified property.  As 
described below, prior to December 31, 1998, three of the properties were 
sold and cash distributions representing substantially all of the net 
proceeds from sale were distributed to the Unitholders.  As of January 29, 
1999, all of the Partnership's remaining investments in the properties were 
sold and in February 1999, cash distributions representing substantially all 
of the net proceeds from sale and cash from operations, less an amount for 
the costs to be incurred in liquidating the Partnership,  were distributed to 
the Unitholders.  The General Partner anticipates that the final liquidation 
of the Partnership will be completed in mid-1999.

The Partnership's principal investment objectives with respect to its 
interests in real property were:

(1)  capital appreciation;

(2)  distribution of net cash from operations attributable to rental income; 
     and 

(3)  preservation and protection of capital.

Distribution of net cash from operations was the Partnership's objective 
during its operational phase, while preservation and appreciation of capital 
were the Partnership's long-term objectives.  The attainment of the 
Partnership's investment objectives was dependent on many factors, including 
economic conditions in the United States as a whole and, in particular, in 
the localities in which the Partnership's properties were located, especially 
with regard to achievement of capital appreciation.  

The Partnership utilized the net proceeds of its public offering to acquire 
five residential apartment complexes either directly or through investments 
in joint ventures, as follows:  (1) Las Colinas Apartments I & II, a 
300-unit apartment complex located in Scottsdale, Arizona; (2) Tierra 
Catalina, a 120-unit apartment complex located in Tucson, Arizona; (3) Ridge 
Park, a 100-unit apartment complex located in Tulsa, Oklahoma; (4) Cedar Bay 
Village, a 42-unit apartment complex located in Altamonte Springs, Florida; 
and (5) Kingston Village, a 120-unit complex located in Altamonte Springs, 
Florida.  On July 20, 1995, Cedar Bay Village and Kingston Village were sold 
to an unaffiliated institutional buyer for $1,410,622 and $5,370,000, 
respectively.  On November 27, 1996, Ridge Park was sold to an unaffiliated 
buyer for $3,385,000.

During its year ended December 31, 1998, following consideration of various 
alternatives available to the Partnership, the General Partner concluded that 
a sale of the Partnership's two remaining properties, Las Colinas I & II and 
Tierra Catalina (collectively the "Properties"), would be in the best 
interests of the Partnership and the Unitholders.  Throughout much of 1998, 
the General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, negotiated the terms of a 
sale of the Properties with Lend Lease Real Estate Investments, Inc. ("Lend 
Lease"), on behalf of two pension funds which are unaffiliated with the 
General Partner. Once the terms were negotiated, as required by the 
Partnership's Amended and Restated Certificate and Agreement of Limited 
Partnership ("Agreement of Limited Partnership"), the General Partner 
solicited the consent of a majority in interest of the Unitholders to the 
sale pursuant to a Consent Solicitation Statement dated December 16, 1998.  
The requisite consent was obtained on January 15, 1999, and on January 29, 
1999, the Partnership consummated the sale of the Properties to DOC 
Investors, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (the "Purchaser"), 
for a sales price of $22,250,000 (before selling costs and prorations).  The 
members of the Purchaser are two pension funds advised by Lend Lease, which 
own an aggregate 91% interest in the Purchaser, and ConAm DOC Affiliates LLC, 
an affiliate of the General Partner ("ConAm DOC"), which owns a 9% interest 
in the Purchaser. ConAm DOC has the potential to receive up to an additional 
18% of the profits of the Purchaser after certain priority returns are paid 
to the members of the Purchaser. 

                                       1

<PAGE>

The Partnership received approximately $12,371,000 of cash proceeds from the 
sale, net of closing costs of approximately $1,000 and repayment of 
indebtedness of approximately $9,878,000.  All net cash proceeds from the 
sale and previously undistributed cash from operations, less an amount the 
General Partner determined to set aside for contingencies, were distributed 
to the Limited Partners on February 26, 1999.

The Partnership considers itself to have been engaged in only one industry 
segment, real estate investment.

COMPETITION

The Partnership's real property investments were subject to competition from 
similar types of properties in the vicinities in which they were located.  
Such former competition increased during the Partnership's period of 
ownership of the Properties due principally to the addition of newly 
constructed apartment complexes offering increased residential and 
recreational amenities.  The Properties were also subject to competition from 
condominiums and single-family properties, especially as potential renters 
chose to buy homes during periods of low mortgage interest rates.  The 
Partnership competed with other real estate owners and developers in the 
rental and leasing of its Properties by offering competitive rental rates 
and, if necessary, leasing incentives.  Such competition affected the 
occupancy levels and revenues of the Properties.  The occupancy level at the 
Properties reflects some seasonality, which is typical in these markets.  In 
some cases, the Properties competed with properties owned by partnerships 
affiliated with the General Partner.

For a discussion of market conditions in the areas where the Properties were 
located, reference is made to the Partnership's Annual Report to Unitholders 
for the year ended December 31, 1998, which is filed as an exhibit under Item 
14.

EMPLOYEES

The Partnership has no employees.  Services are provided by CPS and ConAm 
Management Corporation ("ConAm Management"), an affiliate of CPS.  Pursuant 
to property management agreements with the Partnership, ConAm Management 
provided property management services with respect to the Properties.  In 
addition, the Partnership retains Brock, Tibbitts & Snell, an accountancy 
corporation, an unaffiliated company located in San Diego, California, to 
provide accounting and investor communication functions.  During 1998, 
Service Data Corporation, an unaffiliated company, provided transfer agent 
services for the Partnership.  In February 1999, pursuant to the terms of a 
sale of its contracts, Service Data Corporation assigned the transfer agent 
functions of the company to MAVRICC Management Systems, Inc., an unaffiliated 
company located in Troy, Michigan. See Item 13, "Certain Relationships and 
Related Transactions," for a further description of the service and 
management agreements between the Partnership and affiliated entities.

ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES

For a description of the Properties owned and operated by the Partnership 
during 1998 and discussion of market conditions in the areas where the 
Properties were located, reference is made to the Partnership's Annual Report 
to Unitholders for the year ended December 31, 1998, which is filed as an 
exhibit under Item 14. For information on the Partnership's purchase of the 
Properties, reference is made to Note 4 of the Consolidated Financial 
Statements, included herein by reference to the Partnership's Annual Report 
to Unitholders.  For information on the sale of the Properties by the 
Partnership in January 1999, reference is made to Item 1 and Note 10 of the 
Consolidated Financial Statements, included herein by reference to the 
Partnership's Annual Report to Unitholders.  Average occupancy rates at each 
property are incorporated by reference to Item 7.

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Partnership is not subject to any material pending legal proceedings. 

ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

On December 16, 1998, pursuant to a Consent Solicitation Statement, the 
Unitholders were asked to approve a sale of the Partnership's remaining 

                                       2

<PAGE>

Properties and the related amendment to the Agreement of Limited Partnership. 
A majority in interest of the Unitholders approved the sale and the related 
amendment and the sale was completed on January 29, 1999.  During the fourth 
quarter of the year ended December 31, 1998, no other matters were submitted 
to a vote of Unitholders through the solicitation of proxies or otherwise.

                                      PART II

ITEM 5.  MARKET FOR THE PARTNERSHIP'S LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS AND 
         RELATED SECURITY HOLDER MATTERS

As of December 31, 1998, the number of Unitholders of record was 3,405.

No established public trading market exists for the Units, and it is not 
anticipated that such a market will develop in the future.

Distributions of Net Cash From Operations, when made, are determined by the 
General Partner on a quarterly basis, with distributions generally occurring 
approximately 45 days after the end of each quarter.  Such distributions to 
the Unitholders have been made from net operating income with respect to the 
Partnership's investment in the Properties and from interest on short-term 
investments.  Information on cash distributions paid by the Partnership for 
the past two years is incorporated by reference to the Partnership's Annual 
Report to Unitholders for the year ended December 31, 1998, which is filed as 
an exhibit under Item 14. No distribution was made for the fourth quarter of 
the year ended December 31, 1998 because the General Partner decided to 
suspend distributions pending the outcome of the solicitation of the consent 
of the Unitholders to the sale of the Properties.

Because of the sale of the Partnership's remaining Properties, no further 
quarterly distributions of Net Cash From Operations will be made.  The 
Partnership distributed $13,505,025 to the Unitholders ($172.50 per Unit) and 
$142,072 to the General Partner on February 26, 1999, which amounts are equal 
to substantially all of the net proceeds from the sale of the Properties, 
together with other available cash of the Partnership, less an amount for 
costs associated with the sale of the properties, the  liquidation of the 
Partnership and other contingencies of approximately $475,128, net of 
expected cash provided by operations through the date of sale.  The final 
liquidation of the Partnership is expected to occur in mid-1999, and the 
remaining funds, if any, will be distributed to the Unitholders at that time.

ITEM 6.   SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

Incorporated by reference to the Partnership's Annual Report to Unitholders 
for the year ended December 31, 1998, which is filed as an exhibit under Item 
14.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At December 31, 1998, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of 
$1,578,924 which were invested in unaffiliated money market funds, compared 
with $1,388,845 at December 31, 1997.  The increase in cash and cash 
equivalents reflects the cash provided from operations exceeding mortgage 
principal payments and cash distributions to Partners during the year ended 
December 31, 1998.  The Partnership also maintains a restricted cash balance 
that totaled $410,262 at December 31, 1998, largely unchanged from $430,849 
at December 31, 1997.  The increase in other assets in 1998 is primarily 
attributed to an increase in prepaid costs related to the sale of the 
Properties.

Distribution payable decreased to $0 at December 31, 1998, compared to 
$160,929 at December 31, 1997.  The decrease is attributable to the decision 
of the General Partner to suspend distributions pending the outcome of the 
solicitation of the consent of the Unitholders to the sale of the remaining 
Properties.

Accounts payable and accrued expenses totaled $307,101 at December 31, 1998, 
compared to $202,484 at December 31, 1997.  The increase is primarily due to 
the accrued and unpaid costs associated with the sale of the Properties.

                                       3

<PAGE>

Interest payable increased to $68,837 at December 31, 1998 from $0 at 
December 31, 1997 as the debt service payment due on January 1, 1999 was paid 
in January 1999 rather than in December as was the case the prior year. 

Security deposits decreased to $68,378 at December 31, 1998, compared to 
$78,834 at December 31, 1997.  This decrease occurred while occupancy 
increased during that same period.  This decrease in security deposits 
occurred primarily because strong competition has reduced the ability of 
property owners to collect refundable security deposits from their tenants.

As a result of the Partnership's sale of the Properties on January 29, 1999, 
all of the Partnership's assets have been converted to cash and cash 
equivalents. Pending distribution to the Unitholders as described in Item 5 
above, the Partnership's funds have been invested in the Pacific Horizon 
Money Market Funds, Prime Fund.  The General Partner retained from the 
initial distribution an amount it believes is sufficient to provide for 
contingencies, and to cover the expenses of operating the Partnership until 
final liquidation of the Partnership, including legal and accounting fees.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

1998 VERSUS 1997
Partnership operations for the year ended December 31, 1998 
resulted in net income of $193,423 compared with a net loss of $8,210 in 
1997.  The improvement is primarily due to increased rental rates at both of 
the properties and improved occupancy at Tierra Catalina, and slightly lower 
property operating and general and administrative expenses.

Rental income for the year ended December 31, 1998 was $3,402,923 compared 
with $3,196,975 in 1997.  The increase is primarily due to improved occupancy 
at Tierra Catalina and improved rental rates at both of the properties.  
Interest and other income was $59,998 for the year ended December 31, 1998 
compared to $102,512 in 1997.  The decrease is primarily due to the 
Partnership maintaining lower average cash balances in 1998 than in 1997 and 
the cash proceeds held from the sale of Ridge Park during the first quarter 
of 1997 before distribution to the Unitholders.

Property operating expenses decreased slightly to $1,497,797 for the year 
ended December 31, 1998, as compared  with $1,520,450 in 1997.  The decrease 
is primarily due to lower repairs and maintenance expenses, partially offset 
by higher real estate tax expenses for both properties.

1997 VERSUS 1996
Partnership operations for the year ended December 31, 1997 resulted in a net
loss of $8,210 compared with net income of $1,285,707 in 1996.  The change from
net income in 1996 to a net loss in 1997 is attributable to the gain of
$1,410,622 recognized on the sale of Ridge Park during 1996.  Excluding the
gain, the Partnership generated a net loss from operations of $124,915 in 1996. 

Rental income for the year ended December 31, 1997, was $3,196,975 compared 
with $3,622,403 for 1996.  The decrease reflects the sale of Ridge Park in 
November 1996.  Partially offsetting the decrease was an increase in rental 
income at Las Colinas and Tierra Catalina due to an increase in rental rates 
at both properties and an increase in occupancy at Tierra Catalina.  Interest 
and other income totaled $102,512 in 1997 compared with $91,282 in 1996.  The 
increase is attributable to the Partnership maintaining a higher average cash 
balance in 1997.

Total expenses for the year ended December 31, 1997 were $3,307,697 compared 
with $3,838,600 in 1996.  Property operating expenses decreased from 
$1,817,928 in 1996 to $1,520,450 in 1997, reflecting the decline in operating 
expenses primarily resulting from the sale of Ridge Park.  Interest expense 
and depreciation and amortization also decreased from 1996 to 1997 primarily 
due to the sale of Ridge Park.

General and administrative expenses increased from 1996 to 1997 due primarily 
to a change in the billing method for certain Partnership administrative 
services and an increase in professional consulting fees.

YEAR 2000 

Due to the consummation of the sale of the Properties in January 1999, the 
Partnership is no longer engaged in the operation of real properties or any 
other business.  As a result of the foregoing, and in view of the General 
Partner's plan to complete the full liquidation of the Partnership prior to 
January 1, 2000, the Partnership has no exposure to Year 2000 issues.

ITEM 7A.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Since the Partnership sold its remaining Properties on January 29, 1999 and 
its mortgage indebtedness was repaid, the Partnership has no exposure to 
interest rate risk.  In addition, the Partnership is expected to be 
liquidated during 1999.

ITEM 8.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

Incorporated by reference to the Partnership's Annual Report to Unitholders 
for the year ended December 31, 1998, which is filed as an exhibit under Item 
14. Supplementary Data is incorporated by reference to F-1 and F-2 of this 
report. 

ITEM 9.  CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND 
FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

Effective December 1, 1997, the Partnership advised Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P. 
(now a part of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP) that it was changing accounting 
firms and engaged KPMG LLP.

Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P.'s report on the consolidated financial statements 
for the year ended December 31, 1996 contained no adverse opinion or 
disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified as to uncertainty, audit scope or 
accounting principles. There had been no disagreements with Coopers & Lybrand 
L.L.P. on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial 
statement disclosure, or auditing scope procedure.

The decision to change accountants was approved by CPS and RI-81, the General 
Partners of the Partnership at that time.

                                   PART III

ITEM 10.  DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE PARTNERSHIP

The Partnership has no officers or directors. CPS, as the General Partner of 
the Partnership, manages and controls the affairs of the Partnership and has 
general responsibility and authority in all matters affecting its business.

CPS is a California limited partnership organized on April 30, 1981.  The

                              MESSAGE TO INVESTORS
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Presented for your review is the 1998 Annual Report for ConAm Realty 
Investors 81 L.P. (the "Partnership"). In this report we have included a 
performance summary which addresses operations at each of the properties (the 
"Properties") and the financial highlights for the year.

We are pleased to announce that the proposed sale of the Partnership's two 
remaining Properties to DOC Investors, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability 
company, was approved by a majority in interest of the Unitholders as of 
January 15, 1999 and that the sale was completed on January 29, 1999. 
Following the close of the sale of the Properties, a distribution of $172.50 
per Unit, representing the majority of the net proceeds from the sale and 
other cash from operations, was paid to Unitholders on February 26, 1999. 
This distribution included the net proceeds from the sale of the 
Partnership's Properties in January 1999 of $156.17 per Unit, and cash from 
operations of $16.33 per Unit.

CASH DISTRIBUTIONS
The Partnership paid quarterly cash distributions of operating cash flow
totaling $6.00 per Unit for the year ended December 31, 1998. The General
Partner elected not to make a fourth quarter distribution pending the outcome of
the solicitation of the consent of the Unitholders to the sale of the
Partnership's Properties. Including the distribution of sale proceeds and cash
from operations made on February 26, 1999, since inception, the Partnership has
paid distributions totaling $628.05 per original $500 Unit. 

OPERATIONS OVERVIEW
In 1998, operations at the Partnership's Properties continued to be impacted to
varying degrees by strong competition for residents. In the Scottsdale and
Tucson areas where the Properties are located, many renters opted to purchase
homes due to low interest rates. Despite this trend, strong economic growth
nonetheless helped strengthen multifamily housing, and the Properties were able
to sustain average occupancy levels at or above 95% in 1998 while increasing
rental rates at both Properties, in part due to the use of rental concessions.
The Tucson market also improved from its overbuilt situation of two years ago,
contributing to the increased occupancy at Tierra Catalina. Although rental
occupancy and rental rates have improved, rental concessions were required to
maintain occupancy levels.


SUMMARY 
The sale of the Properties on January 29, 1999 and the initial distribution 
of net sales proceeds and cash from operations on February 26, 1999 
represented a major step toward the liquidation of the Partnership that 
is expected to be completed in August 1999. A final distribution of remaining 
Partnership cash, if any, will be made shortly thereafter.

Very truly yours,

                               PERFORMANCE SUMMARY
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

LAS COLINAS I & II  SCOTTSDALE, ARIZONA

Las Colinas I & II is a 300-unit apartment community located in Scottsdale 
eight miles northeast of Phoenix. Las Colinas I & II reported average 
occupancy of 97% in 1998, up from 96% in 1997, and an increase in rental 
rates. The Scottsdale apartment market experienced continued strong 
competition during 1998 and 1997, reflecting high levels of construction and 
notable competition from condominiums and single family houses, as affordable 
prices and low mortgage rates enticed renters to buy. The Scottsdale market 
is experiencing strong job and population growth.

TIERRA CATALINA TUCSON, ARIZONA

Tierra Catalina is a 120-unit apartment community located near the Foothills 
region of Tucson. The property maintained an average occupancy rate of 95% 
during 1998, an increase from 92% for 1997, in part due to the use of rental 
incentives and other concessions in the marketplace to attract residents. The 
increase in occupancy as well as an increase in rental rates led to a 7.5% 
rise in the property's rental income in 1998. Apartment vacancy rates 
generally remain high in this market, but significant population growth in 
Tucson over the last few years is slowly reducing the number of available 
units. Low interest rates and affordable home prices have also increased 
competition for residents by encouraging many renters to purchase homes.

CONAM REALTY INVESTORS 81 L.P.
AND CONSOLIDATED VENTURES

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
DECEMBER 31, 1998, 1997 AND 1996

1. ORGANIZATION

ConAm Realty Investors 81 L.P. (formerly Hutton/ConAm Realty Investors 81) 
(the "Partnership") was organized as a Limited Partnership under the laws of 
the State of California pursuant to a Certificate and Agreement of Limited 
Partnership (as subsequently amended, the "Partnership Agreement") dated 
April 30, 1981, as amended and restated August 31, 1981. The Partnership was 
formed for the purpose of acquiring and operating multi-family residential 
real estate. The general partners of the Partnership were RI-81 Real Estate 
Services Inc. ("RI-81"), an affiliate of Lehman Brothers, Inc., and ConAm 
Property Services, Ltd. ("CPS"), an affiliate of Continental American 
Properties, Ltd. (the "General Partners"). On October 8, 1997, CPS acquired 
RI-81's co-general partner interest in the Partnership, effective July 1, 
1997, pursuant to a purchase agreement between CPS and RI-81 dated August 29, 
1997. As a result, CPS now serves as the sole general partner (the "General 
Partner") of the Partnership. In conjunction with this transaction, the name 
of the Partnership was changed from Hutton/ConAm Realty Investors 81 to ConAm 
Realty Investors 81 L.P. On January 15, 1999, a majority in interest of 
Unitholders agreed to sell the Partnership's remaining properties and 
liquidate the Partnership. The Partnership sold its properties on January 
29,1999 (Note 10) and expects to liquidate during 1999.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND PRACTICES

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The consolidated financial statements are prepared on 
the accrual basis of accounting and include the accounts of the Partnership 
and its affiliated ventures when the Partnership has a controlling interest 
in the ventures. The effect of transactions between the Partnership and its 
ventures have been eliminated in consolidation.

INVESTMENTS IN REAL ESTATE Investments in real estate are recorded at cost 
less accumulated depreciation and include the initial purchase price of the 
property, legal fees, acquisition and closing costs.

Revenue is recognized when earned and expenses (including depreciation) are 
recognized when incurred in accordance with generally accepted accounting 
principles. Leases are generally for terms of one year or less.

Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method based upon the 
estimated useful lives of the properties (25 years). Maintenance and repairs 
are charged to operations as incurred. Costs incurred for significant 
betterments and improvements are capitalized and depreciated over their 
estimated useful lives.

For assets sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated 
depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is 
reflected in net income for the period.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS The Partnership assesses its real estate 
investments for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances 
indicate that the carrying amount of the real estate may not be recoverable. 
Recoverability of real estate to be held and used is measured by a comparison 
of the carrying amount of the real estate to future net cash flows 
(undiscounted and without interest) expected to be generated by the real 
estate. If the real estate is considered to be impaired, the impairment to be 
recognized is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the real 
estate exceeds the fair value of the real estate. At December 31, 1998, the 
Partnership's properties were assets to be held and used as the Partnership 
did not have the ability to sell the properties without the approval of a 
majority of the Unitholders.

AND CONSOLIDATED VENTURES

MORTGAGE FEES Mortgage fees are costs incurred in connection with obtaining 
financing for the Partnership's properties. Such costs are amortized over the 
initial term of the loan on a method which approximates the 
effective-interest method.

INCOME TAXES No provision for income taxes has been made in the financial 
statements as the liability for such taxes is that of the partners rather 
than the Partnership.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid 
short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less.

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK Financial instruments which potentially subject 
the Partnership to a concentration of credit risk principally consist of cash 
and cash equivalents and restricted cash in excess of the financial 
institution's federally insured limits. The Partnership invests its cash and 
cash equivalents and restricted cash with high credit quality federally 
insured financial institutions or treasury based money market funds.

RESTRICTED CASH Restricted cash consists of escrow deposits for real estate 
taxes and casualty insurance as required by the first mortgage lender.

USE OF ESTIMATES Management of the Partnership has made a number of estimates 
and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities, the 
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial 
statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the 
reporting period to prepare these financial statements in conformity with 
generally accepted accounting principles. Actual results could differ from 
those estimates.

3. THE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT

The Partnership Agreement provides that net cash from operations, as defined, 
is to be distributed quarterly, 90% to the limited partners and 10% to the 
General Partner.

Net loss for any fiscal year is to be allocated 99% to the limited partners 
and 1% to General Partner. Net income for any fiscal year will generally be 
allocated 90% to the limited partners and 10% to the General Partner.

Net proceeds from sales or refinancing are to be distributed 99% to the 
limited partners and 1% to the General Partner until each limited partner has 
received an amount equal to its adjusted capital value (as defined) and an 
annual, non-compounded cumulative 7% return thereon. The balance, if any, is 
to be distributed 85% to the limited partners and 15% to the General Partner. 
Gain from sales resulting from mortgage debt in excess of basis is to be 
allocated to each partner having a negative capital account balance, pro 
rata, to the extent of such negative balance. Thereafter, such gain is to be 
allocated in accordance with the distribution of net proceeds from sale or 
refinancing, with the balance allocated to the limited partners.

Effective July 1, 1997, all general partner allocations were made solely to 
CPS.

4. INVESTMENTS IN REAL ESTATE

The Partnership's two remaining properties at December 31, 1998 were as

CONAM REALTY INVESTORS 81 L.P.
AND CONSOLIDATED VENTURES

Since inception, the Partnership acquired five residential apartment complexes
either directly or through investments in joint ventures. On July 20, 1995, the
Partnership sold Kingston Village and Cedar Bay Village to an institutional
buyer (the "Buyer"), which was unaffiliated with the Partnership. The selling
price was determined by arm's length negotiations between the Partnership and
the Buyer. Kingston Village and Cedar Bay Village were sold for $5,370,000 and
$1,410,000, respectively. The Partnership received aggregate net proceeds of
$6,555,332 from the sales of which $3,541,400, representing outstanding
principal and interest, was used to fully satisfy the Partnership's mortgage
obligations on Kingston Village and Cedar Bay Village. The sales resulted in a
gain on sale of $1,485,121 which included the recognition of mortgage prepayment
penalties of $120,926 and a $101,146 write-off of the unamortized portion of
mortgage fees. The gain was allocated in accordance with the Partnership
Agreement. On August 17, 1995, the Partnership paid a special distribution of
$3,170,745 or $40.50 per Unit to the limited partners. The special distribution
was comprised of the net proceeds from the sale of Kingston Village and Cedar
Bay Village and Partnership cash reserves.

On November 27, 1996, the Partnership sold Ridge Park to Ridge Park Limited
Partnership, an Oklahoma limited partnership ("Ridge Park L.P."), which is
unaffiliated with the Partnership. The selling price was determined by arm's
length negotiations between the Partnership and Ridge Park L.P. Ridge Park was
sold for $3,385,000. The Partnership received net proceeds of $3,196,264 from
the transaction of which $1,902,666, representing outstanding principal and
interest, was used to fully satisfy the Partnership's mortgage obligation on
Ridge Park. The transaction resulted in a gain on sale of $1,410,622 which
included the recognition of mortgage prepayment penalties of $36,843, and a
$33,154 write-off of the unamortized portion of mortgage fees. The gain was
allocated in accordance with the Partnership Agreement. On February 27, 1997,
the Partnership paid a special distribution of $1,291,785 ($16.50 per unit) to
the limited partners, representing the net proceeds from the sale of Ridge Park.

Cedar Bay Village, Ridge Park, Kingston Village and Tierra Catalina were
originally acquired through joint ventures with unaffiliated developers. To each
venture, the Partnership contributed the apartment projects as its initial
capital contribution. On March 30, 1984, the co-venturer's interest with respect
to Tierra Catalina was acquired for $400,000.

The limited partnership agreements for Ridge Park Associates, Tierra Catalina
and Las Colinas substantially provide that:

a. Available cash from operations is to be distributed 100% to the Partnership
until it has received an annual, non-cumulative preferred return, as defined.
Any remaining balance is to be distributed 99% to the Partnership and 1% to the
General Partner.

b. Net income is to be allocated first, proportionately to partners with
negative capital accounts, as defined, until such capital accounts have been
increased to zero then, to the Partnership up to the amount of any payments made
on account of its preferred return and thereafter, 99% to the Partnership and 1%
to the General Partner. All losses are to be allocated first, to the partners
with positive capital accounts, as defined, until such accounts have been
reduced to zero and then, 99% to the Partnership and 1% to the General Partner.

c. Income from a sale is to be allocated first, to the Partnership until the
Partnership's capital accounts, as defined, are equal to the fair market value
of the Partnerships' assets at the date of the amendments. Then, any remaining
balance is to be allocated 99% to the Partnership and 1% to the General Partner.
Net proceeds from a sale or refinancing are to be distributed first, to the
partners with the positive capital account balance, as defined; thereafter, 99%
to the Partnership and 1% to the General Partner. Upon dissolution or
termination of the Partnerships, the General Partner is to be required to
contribute an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the excess of 1.01% of the
capital account, as defined, of the Partnership as of the date of the
dissolution or termination over any capital contributions made by the General

5. MORTGAGE PAYABLE

On August 27, 1992, the Partnership obtained first mortgage loans on Las 
Colinas I and II, Tierra Catalina, Kingston Village, Cedar Bay Village, and 
Ridge Park properties totaling $15,900,000. The loans, secured by the 
respective properties and an assignment of rents and leases, bear interest at 
an annual rate of 8.5%. Each of the loans is a non-recourse loan with monthly 
payments of principal and interest based on a thirty year amortization 
schedule and a seven year term with the balance of the principal due on 
September 1, 1999. The loans require monthly insurance, real estate tax and 
property replacement and repair reserve escrow fundings.

On July 20, 1995, Kingston Village and Cedar Bay Village were sold. A portion 
of the sales proceeds, in the amount of $3,662,325, representing outstanding 
principal, interest and pre-payment penalties, was used to fully satisfy the 
Partnership's mortgage obligations on the Properties.

On November 27, 1996, Ridge Park was sold. A portion of the sales proceeds, 
in the amount of $1,939,509 representing outstanding principal, interest and 
pre-payment penalties, was used to fully satisfy the Partnership's mortgage 
obligation on the Property.

Mortgages payable for Las Colinas I & II and Tierra Catalina at December 31, 
1998 are $6,182,567 and $3,535,581, respectively. These mortgages contain 
provisions for prepayment penalties if the mortgages are repaid prior to 
their maturity date of September 1, 1999. The loans were repaid in full in 
conjunction with the sale of Las Colinas I & II and Tierra Catalina on 
January 29, 1999 (note 10).

6. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair 
Value of Financial Instruments," requires that the fair values be disclosed 
for the Partnership's financial instruments. The carrying amount of cash and 
cash equivalents, restricted cash, distribution payable, accounts payable and 
accrued expenses, due to general partner and affiliates, interest payable, 
and security deposits are reasonable estimates of their fair values due to 
the short-term nature of those instruments.

The carrying amount of the mortgage payable is a reasonable estimate of fair 
value based on management's belief that the interest rates and terms of the 
debt are comparable to those commercially available to the Partnership in the 
marketplace for similar instruments.

The General Partner
ConAm Realty Investors 81 L.P.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of ConAm Realty 
Investors 81 L.P. (a California limited partnership) and consolidated 
ventures (the Partnership), as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the related 
consolidated statements of operations, partners' capital, and cash flows for 
the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the 
responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to 
express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our 
audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to 
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free 
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, 
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. 
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and 
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall 
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a 
reasonable basis for our opinion.

As further discussed in Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements, the 
Partnership sold substantially all of its assets on January 29, 1999.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above 
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ConAm 
Realty Investors 81 L.P. and consolidated ventures as of December 31, 1998 
and 1997, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the 
years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

NET ASSET VALUE PER UNIT  (78,290 UNITS OUTSTANDING)                                                        172.50

</TABLE>
(1)  Represents the Partnership's share of the fair market value of the
     properties as reflected in the purchase and sale agreements pursuant to
     which the properties were sold on January 29, 1999. The purchase prices
     contained in such agreements were negotiated and agreed to in December
     1998.
(2)  Includes an amount for estimated future costs related to the sale of the 
     properties and liquidation of the Partnership and an amount the General 
     Partner determined to set aside for contingencies.
(3)  The Partnership Net Asset Value assumes a sale at December 31, 1998 of all
     the Partnership's properties at prices equal to the sales prices set forth
     in the purchase and sale agreements described in Note (1) above, payment of
     all Partnership liabilities, and the distribution of the net proceeds of
     such sale and other Partnership cash to the Partners.

Since the Partnership sold all of its real property assets in January 1999, 
is in dissolution, and is in the process of winding up and liquidating, the 
foregoing Partnership Net Asset Value is intended to approximate the 
liquidation value of the Partnership and the Net Asset Value Per Unit is 
intended to approximate the per Unit amount which is expected to be 
distributed to the Limited Partners in connection with the Partnership's 
liquidation. The Net Asset Valuation does not take into account the illiquid 
nature of an investment in the Units or the fact that at December 31, 1998 a 
holder of Units would likely not have been able to sell their Units for the 
Net Asset Value Per Unit set forth above. Fiduciaries of Limited Partners 
which are subject to ERISA or other provisions of law requiring valuation of 
Units should consider all relevant factors, including but not limited to Net 
Asset Value Per Unit, in determining the fair market value of the investment 
in the Partnership for such purposes.

The General Partner
ConAm Realty Investors  81 L.P.:


Under date of March 12, 1999, we reported on the consolidated balance sheets 
of ConAm Realty Investors 81 L.P. (a California limited partnership) and 
consolidated ventures (the Partnership) as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and 
the related consolidated statements of operations, partners' capital, and 
cash flows for the years then ended, as contained in the 1998 annual report 
to Unitholders. These consolidated financial statements and our report 
thereon are incorporated by reference in the 1998 annual report on Form 10-K. 
In connection with our audits of the aforementioned consolidated financial 
statements, we also have audited the related consolidated financial statement

express an opinion on this consolidated financial statement schedule based on

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statement schedule, when
