ITEM 1.    BUSINESS.
           -------- 

     The registrant, De Anza Properties-XII, Ltd. (the "Partnership")/(1)/ is a
limited partnership formed on December 2, 1980 under the California Uniform
Limited Partnership Act to acquire, develop, maintain and operate income-
producing residential real estate properties, including apartment complexes and
mobile home parks, and to engage in general business activities related thereto.

     The Partnership considers its business to represent one industry segment,
investment in real property, specifically mobile home parks and apartment
complexes.

     As December 31, 1997, the Partnership owned an apartment complex, and one
space in a mobile home park previously owned by the Partnership (the
"Properties").  A description of the Properties is set forth in Item 2 hereof
and is incorporated herein by reference.

     The Partnership's apartment complex is located in an upscale urban area.
The project attracts primarily young professionals and business people due in
part to the Property's convenient location near major office centers.  The
Property contains recreational facilities and services that offer its residents
a quality lifestyle.  The apartment project competes with approximately five
other apartment properties consisting of approximately 2,500 rental units.  Some
of these properties are newer.  Competition is a significant factor affecting
the occupancy and results of operations of the Partnership's apartment project.

     A description of the general development of the business of the Partnership
since the beginning of the year for which this report is being filed is set
forth in Item 7(3), Results of Operations, and is incorporated herein by
reference.

     Information regarding the Partnership's revenues, profitability and
identifiable assets attributable to each of the Partnership's geographic areas
is set forth in Item 8, Note 10 to the Financial Statements, in the Schedules of
Projects' Operations attached thereto, and in the description of the Properties
set forth in Item 2 hereof, which are incorporated herein by reference.

     The Partnership has no real estate investments which are located outside of
the United States.
     
     As of December 31, 1997, the Partnership employed a total of 7 persons.

ITEM 2.    PROPERTIES.
           ---------- 

     The Partnership purchased three Properties using the capital raised.
Following is a description of each Property; for each Property which has been
sold, the description is as of the time of sale.

- -------------------
(1)  A Registration Statement (File No. 2-71144) was filed on behalf of the
     Partnership by its general partners (the "General Partners"), and the 
     securities offered and sold thereunder were units of limited partnership 
     interests.

          SAN LUIS BAY MOBILE ESTATES.  "San Luis Bay" is an 88-acre retirement
community in Avila Beach, California, midway between Los Angeles and San
Francisco.  The 162 homesites are built into hillsides on winding private roads,
providing valley or ocean views to many residents, most of whom are young
retirees from Southern California.  San Luis Bay is part of a larger planned
community of single-family detached homes, townhomes, condominiums, a time-share
resort with an 18-hole golf course, a tennis club and acres of beautiful
landscaping.  The golf course and tennis courts are available for use by the
residents.  Large homes with cedar-shake roofs, decks and wood or wood-like
siding, and planted flowering shrubs on the slopes below characterize this
community.  San Luis Bay also features a clubhouse used principally for parties,
banquets and special events.  High on a hillside overlooking the valley is an
outdoor pool, an indoor whirlpool spa, and a pool house with shower, locker
facilities and saunas.  An area reserved for parking recreational vehicles and
boats is located on the Property.

          Pursuant to an agreement dated May 2, 1989, to sell the community to
an association representing the residents, the community was subdivided into
condominium units, and the residents elected to purchase the individual
homesites for an aggregate purchase price of $8,850,000, which could be paid, if
an individual buyer so elected, partly in cash, with the remainder represented
by purchase money financing provided by the Partnership.  The residents who
purchased their homesites for all cash received a 10% discount off their
purchase price.

          During 1997, 1994, 1993, 1992 and 1991, one, two, three, three and 152
homesites (0.6%, 1.2%, 1.9%, 1.9% and 93.8% of the Property) were sold,
respectively.  The homesite which has not been purchased is leased under a
seven-year non-transferable lease which expires in 1998.  The Partnership
intends to sell the homesite in 1998 to facilitate the Partnership's
dissolution.  See Item 8, Note 3 to the Financial Statements, which is
incorporated herein by reference.

          WARNER OAKS APARTMENTS.  "Warner Oaks" is a 227-unit, 7-acre mixed-
aged apartment complex located in the Warner Center area of Woodland Hills, a
Los Angeles, California suburban community.  Warner Center is a planned
development of owner-occupied residences, apartment properties, high-rise office
buildings, first-class hotels and two major shopping malls.  The community
offers private tennis courts, an outdoor swimming pool and spa, and a complete
fitness center with a full circuit of Nautilus equipment, a video aerobics
studio and a tanning bed.  Warner Oaks is a fully enclosed, gated community,
most of the residents of which are professionals and white-collar workers who
work in the immediate area.  The Property offers twelve-month leases.  Rental
rates include water and sewer service; residents are billed separately for
electricity and gas.  The Partnership sold the Property on January 14, 1998 and
distributed the net proceeds to the limited partners.  See Item 8, Note 9 to the
financial statements which is incorporated herein by reference.

          THE MARK.  "The Mark" was sold on August 18, 1994.  The Mark is a 58-
acre mixed-aged community in Mesa, Arizona, principally serving young families
with children who occupy the 411 homesites as primary residences.  The
community's central recreational facility contains a large clubhouse

                                      -3-
<PAGE>
 
and swimming pool. A separate smaller building with a fitness center and second
swimming pool serves adults only. A grassy park with play equipment is located
at one end of the community, and at the other end is a seven acre area
containing a softball diamond, a volleyball court and a basketball court.
Football, soccer and other sports can be played there as well. Also available
for resident use is a car wash facility and a do-it-yourself auto repair area
with two covered repair bays. The entire community is surrounded by a 6-foot
masonry wall and has a computerized access gated entrance. The Mark offered one-
to-four-year leases. Rental rates included sewer service; residents were billed
separately for water, electricity and gas.

          For a description of the terms of encumbrances relating to the
Properties, see the information set forth in Item 8, Note 5 to the Financial
Statements, which is incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 5.  MARKET FOR THE PARTNERSHIP'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER
         ------------------------------------------------------------------
         MATTERS.
         ------- 


    (a)  Market Information.
         ------------------ 
         There is no public market for the Units of Limited Partnership
Interests and it is not anticipated that a public market for them will develop.
Accordingly, accurate information as to the market value of a Unit at any given
date is not available.  The estimated aggregate market price shown on the cover
page of this report is simply the original capital contributed by the Limited
Partners and should not be relied upon as indicative of any bid or ask
quotations or transactions in the Limited Partnership Interests.  Units are
transferable only on the books and records of the Partnership and are subject to
certain limitations.

 
    (b)  Holders.
         ------- 
         As of December 31, 1997, the approximate number of Unit holders is
1,631.

    (c)  Dividends.
         --------- 
         The Partnership is a limited partnership and, accordingly, does not
pay dividends.  It does, however, make distributions from operations determined
by the Operating General Partner on a quarterly basis.  During 1997 and 1996,
$750,000 and $700,000 ($33.01 and $30.81 per interest held), respectively, was
distributed to the Limited Partners from operations.

         During 1996, 1994, 1992 and 1991, $135,000, $370,540, $180,000 and
$3,450,000 ($5.94, $16.31, $7.92 and $151.86 per interest held), respectively,
was distributed to the Limited Partners from the sale proceeds of San Luis Bay.
No distributions from sale proceeds of San Luis Bay were made in 1995.  In
addition, during 1996, 1995 and 1994, $29,000, $42,000 and $1,116,460 ($1.28,
$1.85 and $49.14 per interest held), respectively, was distributed to the
Limited Partners from sale proceeds of The Mark.

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


   (1)    Liquidity.
          --------- 

          The Partnership's quick ratios were 3.9:1 and 2.4:1 including
unrestricted cash balances of $876,533 and $472,502 at December 31, 1997 and
1996, respectively.  The unrestricted cash balance increased as a result of
notes receivable prepayments and the release of restricted reserves, both of
which also increased the quick ratio.  The Partnership's cash balance is its
immediate source of liquidity.

          On a long-term basis, the Partnership's liquidity is sustained
primarily from cash flows from operations, which during 1997 was approximately
$1,055,000. Cash flow from operations improved substantially following the 1994
sale of The Mark, as described in Item 8, Note 3 to the financial statements.
The Partnership reinstated regular operating distributions to its Limited
Partners in 1995 though management fees continue to be deferred in accordance
with the Partnership Agreement.

          As a consequence of the sale of The Mark, three reserve accounts were
established as follows:

          1)  The MHC Reserve in the amount of $42,000 was established as a
requirement of the Amended Acquisition Agreement by and between MHC and the
Partnership.  The funds were released in 1995 in full and distributed to the
Limited Partners.

          2)  The General Reserve was maintained in a separate interest bearing
trust account, pursuant to the terms of a trust agreement between the
Partnership, as the beneficiary, and Mr. Gelfand as trustee, with an all cash
fund in the amount of $130,094.  Pursuant to the terms of a contribution
agreement entered into among all of the partnerships and/or liquidating trusts,
whose properties were acquired in the MHC transaction described above, funds in
the General Reserve may have been used to discharge or satisfy the Partnership's
pro rata portion of any contingent liabilities of any of the liquidating trusts
or partnerships, and to discharge or satisfy any liabilities of Mr. Gelfand and
his affiliates.  In August 1997, all funds remaining in the General Reserve were
released to the Partnership.

          3)  The amount of the Independent Committee Reserve for the
Partnership was initially $58,003.  The funds held in the Independent Committee
Reserve were invested in an interest bearing account (but not in derivative
securities) pursuant to the terms of the Independent Committee Trust Agreement,
between the Partnership as beneficiary, and Citicorp Trust N.A. as trustee, for
the benefit of the Partnership's Independent Committee.  Pursuant to the terms
of a contribution agreement among all of the partnerships/liquidating trusts,
each partnership/liquidating trust (including the Partnership) would contribute
a pro rata portion of any claim for indemnification made by the Independent
Committee regardless of which specific partnership or partnerships, if less than
all, a claim relates to. In August 1996, $29,001 of the reserve was released to
the Partnership from the Independent Committee Reserve and the remainder was
released in 1997.

                                      -7-
<PAGE>
 
          The Partnership operated Warner Oaks through January 14, 1998 along
with one space at San Luis Bay which operations are managed by Terra Vista
Management, Inc. ("Terra Vista").  Terra Vista is wholly owned by Mr. Michael D.
Gelfand, the president of the Operating General Partner. The Partnership sold
Warner Oaks on January 14, 1998; see Item 8, Note 9 to the Financial Statements,
which is incorporated herein by reference.  The sale and distribution of the
proceeds leaves the Partnership with only one space at San Luis Bay, notes
receivable and reserves as assets.  In 1998, the Partnership intends to sell the
space and collect the notes receivable (all of which mature in 1998), distribute
the proceeds and any remaining reserves and then terminate by year end.  As of
December 31, 1997, the amount of the notes receivable outstanding was
approximately $217,000.

          Other than as described elsewhere, there are no known trends, demands,
commitments, events or uncertainties which are reasonably likely to materially
affect the Partnership's liquidity.

   (2)    Capital Resources.
          ----------------- 

          As described above, the Partnership sold Warner Oaks on January 14,
1998 and intends to wind-up its remaining business and terminate in 1998.
However, no assurance can be given that such termination will occur.

   (3)    Results of Operations.
          --------------------- 
          Rental income increased 1.6% in 1997 due to increased occupancy
although it was the same in 1996 as in 1995.  Average occupancy for the last
three years is as follows:


                           Average Occupancy
                           -----------------

Warner Oaks            95%         93%         93%
</TABLE>

The recent recession in Southern California held down rents at Warner Oaks,
although occupancy remained high.

          Other income increased in 1997 due to receipt of a litigation
settlement.  Interest income decreased in 1997 over 1996 and in 1996 over 1995
due to declining reserve balances.  Additionally, gains on the sale of The Mark
fluctuated in 1997, 1996 and 1995 as reserves from the 1994 sale were released.

          Expenses during 1997 decreased 63% over 1996 due to two special
accounting occurrences.  First, management and condominium conversion fees
expensed prior to 1996 but payment of which was deferred, were reversed in 1997
when the Partnership determined payment of such fees would not occur following
the pending Warner Oaks sale.  Second, as allowed under then-current accounting
and tax standards, Warner Oaks' 1982 purchase was depreciated on an accelerated
basis which depreciation was completed in 1996 and reduced the 1997 expense.  A
third special accounting treatment slightly offset

                                      -8-
<PAGE>
 
the expense reductions above; specifically, in 1996, an adjustment was made to
reduce previous earthquake losses to actual costs, which expense reduction did
not recur in 1997.

          Excluding these special accounting occurrences, expenses decreased
2.4% in 1997 over 1996.  Other expense and professional fees declined as costs
incurred in responding to multiple tender offers for the Partnership's limited
partner units in prior years were not repeated to the same extent in 1997.
Also, interest on Warner Oaks' variable rate loan decreased with declining
interest rates and insurance expense continued decreasing with a more
competitive market for earthquake and other coverage.  Partly offsetting these
expense decreases, utilities increased with increasing occupancy at Warner Oaks
and increased utility rates.

          Expenses during 1996 decreased 8.1% over 1995.  The Partnership ceased
accruing management fees in 1996 due to the unlikelihood that they will be paid
(prior years' fees were accrued but not paid) according to their subordination
to limited partner Priority Return distributions.  Also in 1996, an adjustment
was made to reduce previous earthquake losses to actual costs.  Real estate
taxes increased due to earthquake related reductions in 1995 not repeated in
1996.  Payroll taxes and employee benefits increased because of higher workers'
compensation insurance rates and adjustments of prior years' costs.  Lastly,
insurance premiums decreased with a more competitive market for earthquake and
other coverage.

          As described above, Warner Oaks was sold on January 14, 1998 and the
Partnership intends to wind-up its business and terminate in 1998, although no
assurance can be given that such termination will occur.

Partnership during the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995.  There was

Partnership exceeding $100,000 each during the years ended December 31, 1997,
1996 and 1995.

          Information contained in Item 13 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K is
incorporated herein by reference.


COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS.

          The Partnership does not have directors.  De Anza Corporation, the
Operating General Partner, has directors, none of whom received compensation for
the year ended December 31, 1997, from the Partnership.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION.

          There is no compensation committee for the Partnership or the
Operating General Partner.  The President of the Operating General Partner
participates in deliberations regarding executive officer compensation.
Payments of compensation by the Partnership are governed by the Partnership
Agreement and described in the Prospectus under the heading "Compensation and
Fees of General Partners", page 12, which is incorporated herein by reference.

EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS, TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT AND CHANGE IN CONTROL
AGREEMENTS.

          In the event a General Partner (other than the Operating General
Partner) withdraws as a General Partner of the Partnership, such individual may
either (i) upon payment of $1,000 to the Partnership, continue as a Limited
Partner (but without the right to vote as a Limited Partner), and thereafter
receive all profits, losses and cash distributions to which he would have been
entitled as a General Partner, or (ii) sell his interest to the Partnership or
the remaining General Partners at a price and on such terms agreed upon by the
withdrawing General Partner and De Anza Corporation, the Partnership's Operating
General Partner.  In the event the withdrawing General Partner elects to sell
his interest in the Partnership, he must first offer to sell such interest to
the Partnership.  If such offer is not accepted by a majority in interest of the
Partnership's Limited Partners within 30 days after the Partnership's receipt of
the 

                                     -13-
<PAGE>
 
notice of withdrawal, then the withdrawing General Partner shall offer his
interest for sale to the remaining General Partners, who shall have the right to
accept such offer for a period of 30 days.

          In the event a General Partner is removed as a General Partner by vote
of a majority in interest of the Limited Partners, such General Partner shall
automatically become a Limited Partner and if the vote of a majority in interest
of the Limited Partners so requires, sell his interest to the Limited Partners
who shall purchase such interest on behalf of the Partnership.  If a removed
General Partner is required by the Limited Partners to sell his interest in the
Partnership, the amount to be paid for such interest shall be computed as of the
date of the consummation of the purchase and in accordance with Section 15 of
the Partnership's Partnership Agreement, which is incorporated herein by
reference.

To the Partners
De Anza Properties - XII, Ltd.
Beverly Hills, California


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of De Anza Properties - XII,
Ltd., a Limited Partnership (the Partnership), as of December 31, 1997 and 1996,
and the related statements of income, changes in partners' capital (deficit) and
cash flows for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these 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.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of the Partnership as of December
31, 1997 and 1996, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the
years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplementary Schedules
I and II are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a
required part of the basic financial statements. Such information has been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic
financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material
respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

                         Notes to Financial Statements

             For the Years Ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

The Partnership invests its cash not needed for working capital in highly liquid
short-term investments consisting primarily of money market funds and
certificates of deposit, with original maturities generally ranging from one to
three months. The Partnership considers all such items to be cash equivalents.
Restricted cash at December 31, 1996 is comprised of the cash reserves
established in connection with the sale of certain property described in Note 3.
The Partnership maintains some of its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at
times, may exceed the federally insured limits. No losses have been experienced
to date related to such accounts. The Partnership places its cash and cash
equivalents with quality financial institutions and believes it is not exposed
to any significant concentrations of credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

In 1996, the Partnership adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 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. Assets to be disposed of are reported at
the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.

Depreciation is computed using both the straight-line and declining-balance
methods, based on estimated useful lives as follows:

<TABLE> 
<S>                                         <C> 
Land improvements                           10 - 15
Buildings and improvements                  25 - 30
Furniture                                    3 - 5
Mobile homes                                   5
</TABLE> 

Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.

LOAN COSTS

The costs incurred in obtaining financing are capitalized and amortized over the
term of the loan.

See accompanying report of independent auditors.

                                                                               8

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The carrying amount reported in the balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents,
accounts receivable and accounts payable at December 31, 1997, approximates fair
value due to the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying value of the
note payable approximates fair value at December 31, 1997, based on the current
borrowing rates for similar obligations.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at December 31, 1997 and
1996 and revenues and expenses for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and
1995. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

INCOME TAXES

Since the Partnership's income or loss is allocated to the partners and not the
Partnership, there is no provision or benefit for income taxes reflected in the
accompanying financial statements. The amount of income for federal tax purposes
for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995 was $1,741,479, $231,550,
and $3,588, respectively. The income for federal tax purposes was calculated as
follows:

2. PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT

The Partnership was formed on December 2, 1980 to acquire, develop and operate
income-producing residential real properties. The Partnership owns and operates
Warner Oaks Apartments (Warner Oaks), a 227-unit apartment complex in Woodland
Hills, California. The Partnership owned and operated two mobile home
communities: San Luis Bay Mobile Estates, a 162-space community in Avila Beach,
California, and Mark Mobile Home Park (the Mark), a 411-space community in Mesa,
Arizona. Prior to 1995, management converted the San Luis Bay Mobile Estates to
a common-interest subdivision of the type referred to as a condominium and sold
most of the homesites by the end of 1995 (see Note 3). The Mark was sold in 1994
(see Note 3).

The Partnership Agreement provides that distributable cash, as defined, will be
distributed to the limited partners, up to a sum equivalent to 6% per annum of
their adjusted capital contributions, as defined therein, through November 20,
1983, and 7% per annum thereafter. Cash is then distributed to the general
partners, up to a sum equivalent to 2% per annum of the adjusted capital
contributions of the limited partners, through November 20, 1983, and 2-1/3% per
annum thereafter. Any additional cash is

distributed 75% to the limited partners and 25% to the general partners. Net
income is allocated in the same proportion as cash distributions; however, the
general partners receive a minimum 1% allocation. If no distributions are made,
net income is allocated 85% to the limited partners and 15% to the general
partners. Losses are allocated 85% to the limited partners and 15% to the
general partners. Profits upon dissolution are allocated to the partners first
according to their negative capital account after distribution of sales
proceeds, any additional profits are allocated 75% to the limited partners and
25% to the general partners.

3. SALE OF PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

SAN LUIS BAY

On May 2, 1989, the Partnership entered into an agreement to sell San Luis Bay
Mobile Estates (the 162-space mobile home community in Avila Beach, California)
to the residents for an aggregate sales price of $8,850,000 and, pursuant to
that agreement, subdivided the property into condominium units in 1991. The
Partnership provided purchase money financing for up to 80% of the individual
homesite price, payable in monthly installments, including interest at 10%,
based on a loan amortization schedule of 30 years, with a balloon payment of
unpaid principal and interest due in 1998. Those residents who purchased their
homesites for cash received a 10% discount off their purchase price. At December
31, 1997 and 1996, respectively, the outstanding amounts due totaled $217,248
and $301,958.

The Partnership sold 160 homesites prior to 1995. In 1997, it sold one site for
$100,000. The remaining unsold unit is leased to a tenant.

The Partnership released reserves from San Luis Bay sales and distributed
$135,000 to the limited partners in 1996. This distribution represents a return
of original capital.

THE MARK

On August 18, 1994, the Partnership sold the Mark to MHC Operating Limited
Partnership (MHC). From the sale proceeds, $230,097 was retained by the
Partnership.

See accompanying report of independent auditors.

                                                                              11

3. SALE OF PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT (CONTINUED)

THE MARK (CONTINUED)

The $230,097 was used to establish the following cash reserves:

<TABLE> 
<S>                                                           <C> 
MHC Reserve                                                   $  42,000
General Reserve                                                 130,094
Independent Committee Reserve                                    58,003
</TABLE> 

The MHC Reserve was required by the Amended Acquisition Agreement. The General
Reserve and Independent Committee Reserve were established to fund contingent
liabilities that may arise out of the MHC transaction. During 1996 and 1995,
$29,001 of the Independent Committee Reserve and the $42,000 MHC Reserve,
respectively, were released and distributed to the limited partners as a return
of original capital. During 1997, the balance of the reserves, $159,096, was
released.

Pursuant to the guidelines of Financial Accounting Standards No. 66, "Accounting
for Sales of Real Estate," the Partnership deferred in 1994 the recognition of
gain on that portion of the sales proceeds represented by the MHC Reserve,
General Reserve and Independent Committee Reserve, totaling $230,097. During the
years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, the Partnership recognized as income
$29,001 attributable to the Independent Committee Reserve released and $42,000
attributable to the MHC Reserve released, respectively. During 1997, the
Partnership recognized as income $29,001 and $130,094 attributable to the
Independent Committee Reserve released and the General Reserve released,
respectively.

WARNER OAKS

In March 1997, the Partnership began actively marketing the Warner Oaks
Apartment complex. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 121, the Partnership ceased depreciating the assets' carrying
value at that time (see Note 9).

4. TENANT LEASES

Apartment units are leased for a period of one year or on a month-to-month
basis, while the remaining mobile home space at San Luis Bay is leased through
June 1998. The Partnership accounts for all leases as operating leases. Rental
revenue is reported ratably over the lease terms. The annual rents from
noncancelable operating leases from tenants, as of December 31, 1997, are as
follows:

          1998                                                     $ 303,952

6. TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

Pursuant to a former management agreement dated October 1, 1985, as amended, De
Anza Assets, Inc., a former affiliate of the operating general partner, was paid
a management fee in the amount of 5% of the annual gross receipts from the
operations of the Partnership's properties. The payment of this fee is
subordinated to the priority distribution to the limited partners of 7% of their
adjusted capital contributions each year and is noncumulative, except in the
case of a sale, refinancing or other disposition of the Partnership's
properties. In that case, the difference between the management fee actually
paid and the management fee that would have been paid if it were not
subordinated is payable out of proceeds of the sale, refinancing or other
disposition after payment of the limited partners' priority return and capital
contribution and the general partners' incentive interest. However, management
fees payable, subsequent to a consummated refinancing, are not subordinated to
the limited partners' priority return to the extent the subordination would have
been caused by increased debt service charges. At December 31, 1996, cumulative
accrued fees of $565,022 were subordinated and included in management and
condominium conversion fees payable to affiliate or related party. Shortly
before the sale to MHC, De Anza Assets, Inc. assigned its rights to receipt of
these fees to the Gelfand Family Trust. During 1997, this payable was written
off when it became apparent that it would not be paid from proceeds from the
pending sale of Warner Oaks Apartments under the terms of the Partnership
Agreement.

See accompanying report of independent auditors.

                                                                              13

6. TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES (CONTINUED)

On August 18, 1994, subsequent to the sale of the Mark and the property
management business of DAG, as discussed in Note 3, the property management of
Warner Oaks and remaining spaces at San Luis Bay was assumed by Terra Vista
Management, Inc. (Terra Vista). Terra Vista is wholly owned by Michael D.
Gelfand, the son of Herbert M. Gelfand. Herbert M. Gelfand is the sole
shareholder of the Operating General Partner and an individual general partner.
Management fees of $113,748 were accrued but not paid to Terra Vista for the
year ended December 31, 1995. Management fees in the amounts of $116,215 and
$114,386 were not accrued for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996,
respectively,  because the Partnership has determined that it is not probable
based on the anticipated cash flows to be generated from the disposition or the
refinancing of the property and under the terms of the Partnership Agreement
that the fees would be paid. At December 31, 1996, cumulative accrued fees of
$153,500, were subordinated and included in management and condominium
conversion fees payable to affiliate or related party. The Gelfand Family Trust
agreed to share equally any payment to be made to the Gelfand Family Trust for
deferred management fees with Terra Vista until Terra Vista has been paid all
outstanding deferred management fees. During 1997, this payable was written off
when it became apparent that these fees would not be paid from proceeds from the
pending sale of Warner Oaks Apartments under the terms of the Partnership
Agreement.

Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, a condominium conversion fee equal to 1%
of the sales price of the San Luis Bay homesites is due to DAG (see Note 3).
Payment of this fee was deferred pursuant to the partnership agreement
requirement regarding subordination to payment of the limited partners' priority
return and capital contribution, the general partners' incentive interest and
deferred management fees. Subordinated cumulative accrued fees of $77,809 were
included in management and condominium conversion fees payable to affiliate at
December 31, 1996. Shortly before the sale to MHC, DAG assigned its right to
receipt of this fee to the Gelfand Family Trust. During 1997, this payable was
written off when it became apparent that this fee would not be paid under the
terms of the Partnership Agreement.

As described earlier in this Note, management fees payable in the amounts of
$565,022 and $153,500 due to Gelfand Family Trust and Terra Vista Management,
Inc., respectively, were written off in 1997. Additionally, condominium
conversion fees payable to Gelfand Family Trust in the amount of $77,809 were
written off in 1997. Based on the contract sale price of Warner Oaks (see Note
9) and the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership will not have to
pay these subordinated amounts.

See accompanying report of independent auditors.

6. TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES (CONTINUED)

The total, $796,331, was written off as a credit to management fee expense and
is included in the determination of net income for the year ended December 31,
1997.

Terra Vista was paid in the aggregate $80,037, $85,138, and $104,365 for the
years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively, for performing
bookkeeping, legal, regional management, disposition, computer and investor
relations services necessary for the operation of the Partnership and its
properties.

7. INCOME PER 1% GENERAL PARTNER INTEREST AND
   LIMITED PARTNERSHIP UNIT

Income per 1% general partner interest was computed based on the general
partners' share of net income as reflected in the statement of changes in
partners' capital (deficit). Income per limited partnership unit was computed
based on the limited partners' share of income as reflected in the statement of
changes in partners' capital (deficit) and the number of limited partnership
units outstanding (22,719 units in each year).

8. LOSS ON EARTHQUAKE DAMAGE

On January 17, 1994, the Warner Oaks Apartment complex suffered property damage
from an earthquake. The Partnership estimated total costs of $1,989,000 and
received insurance proceeds of $1,414,000. A portion of the costs had been
capitalized and the balance of $156,496, representing estimated noncapitalized
costs, net of insurance proceeds, was expensed at December 31, 1994. Additional
insurance proceeds of $308,000 received for loss of income were included in
rental income for the year ended December 31, 1995. The excess of the estimated
accrued costs over the actual costs incurred by the Partnership totaling $73,259
is recorded as a reduction to operating expenses in 1996. As of December 31,
1996, all of the repairs were completed.

See accompanying report of independent auditors.

9. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On October 15, 1997, the Partnership entered into a contract to sell Warner Oaks
Apartments to Bay Apartment Communities, Inc., a Maryland Corporation,
unaffiliated with the Partnership, for an all-cash price of $20,000,000. The
sale closed on January 14, 1998. After payment of mortgage debt of $4,170,474,
broker's commission of $300,000, transfer taxes of $112,000 and estimated sales
costs of approximately $88,000, the Partnership will net proceeds of
$15,329,526. On February 19, 1998, the net proceeds of $15,329,526 were
distributed to the limited partners as a combination of gain distributions and
return of original capital. The Partnership ceased operations, will sell or
collect its remaining assets, settle outstanding liabilities and terminate upon
release and distribution of remaining cash reserves.

                            (A Limited Partnership)

     Schedule of Distributable Income, Partners' Distributions and Reserves
                                  (Continued)

(1)  Cash available for distribution represents amounts as defined by the
     Partnership Agreement.

(2)  The operating general partner has exercised its discretion in reserving
     these amounts for operations, additions to property and equipment, and
     future distribution.

(3)  Proceeds from sales of properties available for distribution or reserves
     represent actual cash payments less cash disbursements for expenses
     incurred in connection with the sale.

     In 1995, the Partnership collected $11,041 in principal payments on the
     purchase money notes. Additionally, the Partnership distributed $42,000 to
     the limited partners from the sale proceeds of the Mark upon release of the
     MHC Reserve. This amount represents a return of original capital
     contributed and reduces the adjusted capital contributions as defined in
     the Partnership Agreement.

     In 1996, the Partnership collected $175,027 in principal payments on the
     purchase money notes.  The Partnership distributed $135,000 of these San
     Luis Bay sale proceeds to the limited partners along with $29,000 from the
     sale proceeds of the Mark upon partial release of the Independent Committee
     Reserve.  These distributions represent a return of original capital
     contributions as defined in the Partnership Agreement.

     In 1997, the Partnership sold one of the then remaining two spaces of San
     Luis Bay for $100,000 in cash. After paying sale and closing costs of
     $8,823, including $6,000 broker's commission, the Partnership netted
     proceeds of $91,177. Additionally, the Partnership collected $84,710 in
     principal payments on the purchase money notes.

(4)  Included in the reserves from sales of properties are $159,096 and $188,097
     at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively, in specific reserves
     established to fund contingent liabilities that might have arisen from the
     MHC transaction.

                             financial statements.
