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 nine months ended September 30, 1998 increased by
$148,000, or 27%, when compared to the corresponding period in the prior year.
This increase was primarily the result of a lease buy-out negotiated in May
1998. The majority of the vacated space was re-leased in the second quarter at a
higher rental rate. Rental income for the three months ended September 30, 1998
increased by $13,000, or 6%, principally due to the higher rental rates. The
Property was 96% occupied at September 30, 1998.

                                       2
<PAGE>
Operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 decreased by
$20,000, or 5%, when compared to the same period in the prior year, principally
due to a decrease in maintenance and repair costs. This decrease was partially
offset by higher utility expenses incurred during the period. Operating expenses
for the three months ended September 30, 1998 decreased by $6,000, or 5%,
primarily due to the decrease in maintenance and repair costs.

Depreciation and amortization expenses for the nine months ended September 30,
1998 decreased by $37,000, or 12%, primarily due to fully depreciated tenant
improvements. Depreciation and amortization expenses for the three months ended
September 30, 1998 increased by $7,000, or 8%, principally due to amortization
expenses associated with additional leasing costs.


(c)         LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Partnership is in an illiquid position at September 30, 1998 with cash of
$71,000 and current liabilities of $100,000. 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.

                  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 September 30, 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 September 30, 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.
