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 90.67% interest in the Sierra Creekside
Partnership, which operates the Sierra Creekside property.

(b)   RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Rental income for the three months ended March 31, 1998 increased $27,000, or
15%, when compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. This increase
was primarily due to the write off of rent receivable in the first quarter of
1997 and due to an increase in occupancy at the Property. Occupancy increased
from 97% at March 31, 1997 to 100% at March 31, 1998.

                                       2
<PAGE>
Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 1998 increased by
$11,000, or 9%, when compared to the same period in the prior year, principally
due to accounting and auditing fees incurred during the quarter. Similar costs
were accrued in the second quarter in the prior year. This increase was
partially offset by a decrease in utilities and maintenance and repair costs.

Depreciation and amortization expenses for the first quarter decreased by
$32,000, or 26%, primarily due to fully depreciated capitalized tenant
improvements.


(c)   LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Partnership is in an illiquid position at March 31, 1998 with cash and
billed rents of $89,000 and current liabilities of $104,000. 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 the construction of
new tenant space. It is anticipated that these requirements 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, 1998, the Partnership's interest in Sierra Creekside Partners was
decreased from 95.04% to 90.67% to reflect 1997 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 March 31, 1998. 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 March 31, 1998 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, 1997.

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.
