                        FORM 10-QSB SEPTEMBER 30, 1997

                        NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   General

     The accompanying financial statements, footnotes and discussions should be
     read in conjunction with the financial statements, related footnotes and
     discussions contained in the Partnership's annual report on Form 10-KSB for
     the year ended December 31, 1996.

     The financial information contained herein is unaudited. In the opinion of
     management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of such
     financial information have been included. All adjustments are of a normal
     recurring nature, except as described in Note 3. The balance sheet at
     December 31, 1996 was derived from audited financial statements at such
     date.

     The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 
     and 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for 
     the full year.

2.   Related Party Transactions

     At September 30, 1997, the outstanding principal and accrued interest to
     First Winthrop was $294,000. The loan bears interest at prime (8.50% at
     September 30, 1997) plus 1%. During 1997, the Partnership repaid $377,000
     of the principal balance and $195,000 of interest (of which $154,000 was
     accrued in prior years). Interest expense related to such borrowings was
     $41,000 and $46,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996,
     respectively.

     Management fees earned by an affiliate of the Managing General Partner
     totaled $10,000 for each of the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and
     1996.

 3.   Gain on Sale of Property from Local Limited Partnership

     During July 1997, the Local Limited Partnership owning the Heritage Hills
     Townhouses sold the property. The Partnership received $500,000 in
     distributions from the sale. The Partnership recognized a $500,000 gain on
     sale, as a result of the Partnership's investment account having a zero
     balance at the date of sale. The Local Limited Partnership is expected to
     terminate during the fourth quarter of 1997.

4.   Subsequent Event

     On October 28, 1997, affiliates of the general partner and Insignia
     Financial Group, Inc. ("Insignia") entered into an agreement pursuant to
     which, among other things, upon approval from the U.S. Department of
     Housing and Urban Development, an affiliate of Insignia will be retained as

     the property manager at the Local Limited Partnership property that is
     currently managed by an affiliate of the Managing General Partner and will
     gain control of the local general partner of the Local Limited Partnership
     through the purchase of Class B Stock in the entity which controls the 
     stock of the local general partner. The new management agreement has the 
     same terms as the existing agreement. In addition, an affiliate of 
     Insignia purchased the loans payable and accrued interest therein to an 
     affiliate of the Managing General Partner.

                        FORM 10-QSB SEPTEMBER 30, 1997

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

             This Item should be read in conjunction with the financial
             statements and other items contained elsewhere in the report.

             Liquidity and Capital Resources

             As of September 30, 1997, the Partnership retained an equity
             interest in seven Local Limited Partnerships. The Local Limited
             Partnership owning the Heritage Hill Townhouses is expected to
             terminate during the fourth quarter of 1997, as a result of the
             sale of the property during July 1997.

             The level of liquidity based on cash and cash equivalents
             experienced a $41,000 decrease for the nine months ended September
             30, 1997, as compared to December 31, 1996. The Partnership's
             $164,000 used in operating activities and $377,000 of repayment of
             loans payable to an affiliate (financing activities) were only
             partially offset by $500,000 of sale proceeds received from the
             Local Limited Partnership owning the Heritage Hills Townhouses
             (investing activities). During July 1997, the Local Limited
             Partnership owning the Heritage Hills Townhouses sold the property
             and distributed $500,000 of sale proceeds to the Partnership. The
             Partnership repaid a portion of the principal balance of the loans
             payable to an affiliate and accrued interest with the sales
             proceeds. The Partnership recognized a $500,000 gain on sale as a
             result of the Partnership's investment account having a zero
             balance at the date of sale. It is expected that a gain of
             approximately $175 per unit will be allocated to the Limited
             Partners due to the recapture of benefits taken in prior years with
             respect to this Local Limited Partnership.

             The Partnership's primary source of income is distributions from
             the Local Limited Partnerships. The Partnership requires cash to
             pay management fees, general and administrative expenses and to
             make capital contributions to any of the Local Limited Partnerships
             which the Managing General Partner deems to be in the Partnership's

             best interest to preserve its ownership interest. To date, all cash
             requirements have been satisfied by interest income, cash
             distributed by the Local Limited Partnerships to the Partnership,
             loans from an affiliate of the Managing General Partner and cash
             reserves.

             At September 30, 1997, the outstanding principal and accrued
             interest on the loans payable to an affiliate of the Managing 
             General Partner was $294,000. The Partnership repaid $377,000 
             of the loans payable to an affiliate and $195,000 of interest 
             (of which $154,000 was accrued in prior years), primarily from 
             sales proceeds received from the Local Limited Partnership owning 
             the Heritage Hills Townhouses. The Partnership will be unable to 
             fully repay this indebtedness until such time as (i) the operating 
             results of any or all of the Local Limited Partnerships improve 
             sufficiently to provide cash distributions to the Partnership, or 
             (ii) any or all of the properties owned by the Local Limited 
             Partnerships can be sold at a price to provide sufficient net 
             sales proceeds to the Partnership. In addition, any future 
             contributions by the Partnership to the Local Limited Partnerships 
             would have to be funded by additional affiliate loans. Neither the 
             Managing General Partner or its affiliates has an obligation to 
             fund any loan amounts required. The Partnership does not expect to 
             make cash distributions to its partners in 1997.

Item 6.      Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation 
             (Continued)

             Liquidity and Capital Resources (Continued)

             At present, the Partnership has no intention of making advances to
             fund future operating deficits incurred by any Local Limited
             Partnership, but retains its right to exercise business judgement
             to reverse this position if circumstances change. Moreover, the
             Partnership is not obligated to provide any additional funds to the
             Local Limited Partnerships to fund operating deficits. If a Local
             Limited Partnership sustains continuing operating deficits and has
             no other sources of funding, it is likely that it will eventually
             default on its mortgage obligations and risk a foreclosure on its
             property by the lender. If a foreclosure were to occur, the Local
             Limited Partnership would lose its investment in the property and
             would incur a tax liability due to the recapture of tax benefits
             taken in prior years. The Partnership, as an owner of the Local
             Limited Partnership, would share these consequences in proportion
             to its ownership interest in the Local Limited Partnership.

             On September 1, 1996, the Local Limited Partnership owning The

             Villas Apartments signed a provisional workout agreement, which
             expired August 31, 1997, with the U.S. Department of Housing and
             Urban Development ("HUD"). The Local Limited Partnership submitted
             a proposal to HUD to extend the term through December 31, 1998 and
             is awaiting approval from HUD. If HUD does not extend such workout
             agreement, the property could be lost through foreclosure. If HUD
             sells the mortgage, the provisional workout agreement may be
             terminated by the new mortgage holder.

             Results of Operations

             Net income increased for the nine months ended September 30, 1997
             by $12,000, as compared to 1996, primarily due to the $500,000 gain
             on sale of property from the Local Partnership owning the Heritage
             Hills Townhouses and a decrease in general and administrative
             expenses of $47,000, which was partially offset by a decrease in
             income from Local Limited Partnership cash distributions of
             $536,000. General and administrative expenses declined due to costs
             associated with the Shadowbrook foreclosure during 1996. In 1996,
             $640,000 was received from three Local Limited Partnerships
             (Shadowbrook $494,000, Lynwood $101,000, and Stonewood $45,000).
             The Shadowbrook and Stonewood Apartment properties were lost
             through foreclosure during 1996 and accordingly, no additional
             distributions will be received from these Local Limited
             Partnerships. For the nine months ended September 30, 1997, $80,000
             was received from the Local Limited Partnership owning the Lynwood
             property and $24,000 from the Local Limited Partnership owning the
             Heritage Hills Townhouses.
