ITEM 2.     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
            CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

(a)   OVERVIEW

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Partnership's
Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this
Form 10-Q.

The Partnership currently owns a 95.04% interest in the Sierra Creekside
Partnership, which operates the Sierra Creekside property.


(b)   RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Rental income for the first six months decreased by $18,000, or 5%, when
compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. This decrease was
primarily the result of billing credits given to tenants in May 1997 due to
common area maintenance fees being lower than anticipated in the prior year. In
addition, occupancy decreased from 100% at June 30, 1996 to 97% at June 30,
1997. Rental income for the three months ended June 30, 1997 decreased by
$20,000, or 10%, primarily due to the billing credits given on the common area
maintenance fees.

                                       2
<PAGE>
Operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1997 decreased by $8,000,
or 3%, principally due to lower utilities and from a decrease in accounting and
auditing costs incurred during the period. Operating expenses for the three
months ended June 30, 1997 decreased by $19,000, or 13%, due primarily to lower
utilities and maintenance and repair costs incurred for the quarter. In
addition, administrative expenses decreased during the period as a result of
cost cutting measures implemented by management. This decrease was partially
offset by an increase in maintenance and repair costs for the same period.

Depreciation and amortization expenses for the second quarter decreased by
$15,000, or 13%, primarily due to fully depreciated capitalized tenant
improvements.

(c)   LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Partnership is in an illiquid position at June 30, 1997 with cash and billed
rents of $67,000 and current liabilities of $96,000. A source of cash is
available through advances from the minority owner of the Property, Sierra Mira
Mesa Partners.

The Partnership's primary capital requirements will be for construction of new
tenant space and compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act ("ADA") or
other yet unknown changes in building codes. The majority of the work required
to comply with ADA has been completed at June 30, 1997. The cost of the
remaining work needed to comply with this act will be funded from the operations
of the Property.

                             (A LIMITED PARTNERSHIP)

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.    ORGANIZATION

In February 1994, the Partnership created a general partnership (Sierra
Creekside Partners) with Sierra Mira Mesa Partners ("SMMP") to facilitate cash
contributions by SMMP for the continued development and operation of the Sierra
Creekside property. The Partnership Agreement of Sierra Creekside Partners (the
"Agreement") was amended effective January 1, 1995 to consider both
contributions and distributions when calculating each partners' percentage
interest at January 1 of each year as called for by the Agreement. Accordingly,
on January 1, 1997, the Partnership's interest in Sierra Creekside Partners was
increased from 81.13% to 95.04% to reflect 1996 contributions and distributions.

2.    BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements include
the accounts of the Partnership and Sierra Creekside Partners, a majority owned
joint venture at June 30, 1997. All significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

In the opinion of the Partnership's management, these unaudited financial
statements reflect all adjustments which are necessary for a fair presentation
of its financial position at June 30, 1997 and results of operations and cash
flows for the periods presented. All adjustments included in these statements
are of a normal and recurring nature. These financial statements should be read
in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained in the
Annual Report of the Partnership for the year ended December 31, 1996.

3.    RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In 1994, all of the common stock of TCP, Inc. was purchased by Finance Factors,
Inc. from Carlsberg Management Company ("CMC"). TCP, Inc. owns all of the common
stock of S-P Properties, Inc., the General Partner of the Partnership. CMC
continued to manage the affairs of the Partnership through March 31, 1995.
