ConAm Realty Investors 2 L.P., formerly known as Hutton/ConAm Realty Investors
2 (the "Partnership"), is a California limited partnership formed on October 8,
1992. ConAm Property Services II, Ltd. ("CPS II"), a California limited
partnership, and RI 2 Real Estate Services Inc. ("RI 2"), a Delaware
corporation, were the original co-general partners of the Partnership. On
January 27, 1998, CPS II acquired RI 2's co-general partner interest in the
Partnership, effective July 1, 1997, pursuant to a Purchase Agreement between
CPS II and RI 2 dated August 29, 1997. As a result, CPS II now serves as the
sole general partner (the "General Partner") of the Partnership. In
conjunction with this transaction, the name of the Partnership was changed from
Hutton/ConAm Realty Investors 2 to ConAm Realty Investors 2 L.P.
The Partnership was organized to engage in the business of acquiring, operating
and holding for investment multifamily residential properties. The Partnership
originally invested in four joint ventures and one limited partnership, each of
which was formed to own a specified residential apartment property. As
described below one property has been sold. Funds held as a working capital
reserve are invested in bank certificates of deposit, unaffiliated money market
funds or other highly liquid short-term investments where there is appropriate
safety of principal in accordance with the Partnership's investment objectives
and policies.
The Partnership's principal investment objectives with respect to its interests
in real property are:
(1) capital appreciation;
(2) distributions of Net Cash From Operations attributable to rental
income; and
(3) preservation and protection of capital.
Distribution of net cash from operations is the Partnership's objective during
its operational phase, while preservation and appreciation of capital are the
Partnership's long-term objectives. The attainment of the Partnership's
investment objectives will depend on many factors, including future economic
conditions in the United States as a whole and, in particular, in the
localities in which the Partnership's properties are located, especially with
regard to achievement of capital appreciation.
From time to time the Partnership expects to sell its real property interests
taking into consideration such factors as the amount of appreciation in value,
if any, to be realized and the possible risks of continued ownership. Proceeds
from any future sale, financing or refinancing of properties will not be
reinvested and may be distributed to the Limited Partners and General Partner
(sometimes referred to together herein as the "Partners"), so that the
Partnership will, in effect, be self-liquidating. If deemed necessary, the
Partnership may retain a portion of the proceeds from any sale, financing or
refinancing as capital reserves. As partial payment for properties sold, the
Partnership may receive purchase money obligations secured by mortgages or
deeds of trust. In such cases, the amount of such obligations will not be
included in Net Proceeds From Sale or Refinancing (distributable to the
Partners) until and only to the extent the obligations are realized in cash,
sold or otherwise liquidated.
Originally, the Partnership utilized the net proceeds of its public offering to
acquire five residential apartment complexes (collectively, the "Properties")
through investments in four joint ventures and one limited partnership, as
follows: (1) Creekside Oaks, a 120-unit apartment complex located in
Jacksonville, Florida; (2) Ponte Vedra Beach Village I, a 122-unit apartment
complex located in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida; (3) Rancho Antigua, a 220-unit
apartment complex located in the McCormick Ranch area of Scottsdale, Arizona;
(4) Village at the Foothills I, a 60-unit apartment complex located in Tucson,
Arizona, and; (5) Country Place Village I, an 88-unit apartment complex located
in Clearwater, Florida. On July 20, 1995, Country Place Village I, was sold to
an unaffiliated institutional buyer for $3,665,000.
The Partnership considers itself to be engaged in only one industry segment,
real estate investment.
Competition
The Partnership's real property investments are subject to competition from
similar types of properties in the vicinities in which they are located and
such competition has increased since the Partnership's investment in the
Properties due principally to the addition of newly constructed apartment
complexes offering increased residential and recreational amenities. The
Properties have also been subject to competition from condominiums and
single-family properties especially during periods of low mortgage interest
rates. The Partnership competes with other real estate owners and developers
in the rental and leasing of its Properties by offering competitive rental
rates and, if necessary, leasing incentives. Such competition may affect the
occupancy levels and revenues of the Properties. The occupancy levels at all
four Properties reflect some seasonality, which is typical in the markets in
which they are located. In some cases, Partnership properties may compete with
properties owned by other partnerships affiliated with the General Partner.
For a discussion of current market conditions in the areas where the
Partnership's Properties are located, reference is made to the Partnership's
Annual Report to Unitholders for the year ended December 31, 1997, which is
filed as an exhibit under Item 14.
Employees
The Partnership has no employees. Services are provided by CPS II, ConAm
Management Corporation ("ConAm Management"), an affiliate of CPS II, as well as
Service Data Corporation and First Data Investor Services Group, both
unaffiliated companies. The Partnership has entered into property management
agreements pursuant to which ConAm Management provides management services with
respect to the Properties. First Data Investor Services Group had been
retained by the Partnership to provide all accounting and investor
communication functions, while Service Data Corporation provides transfer agent
services. Effective January 1, 1998, the accounting functions of the
Partnership were transferred to the firm of Brock, Tibbetts, & Snell, an
unaffiliated company located in San Diego, California. See Item 13, "Certain
Relationships and Related Transactions", for a further description of the
service and management agreements between the Partnership and affiliated
entities.
Item 2. Properties
For a description of the Partnership's Properties, a discussion of current
market conditions in the areas where the Properties are located and appraised
values, reference is made to the Partnership's Annual Report to Unitholders for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 1997, which is filed as an exhibit under
Item 14. For information on the purchase of the Properties, reference is made
to Note 4 of the Consolidated Financial Statements, included herein by
reference to the Partnership's Annual Report to Unitholders. Average occupancy
rates at each property are incorporated by reference to Item 7.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
The Partnership is not subject to any material pending legal proceedings.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
During the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended December 31, 1997, no matter
was submitted to a vote of Unitholders through the solicitation of proxies or
otherwise.
PART II
Item 5. Market for the Registrant's Limited Partnership Units and Related
Security Holder Matters
As of December 31, 1997, the number of Unitholders of record was 3,967.
No established public trading market exists for the Units, and it is not
anticipated that such a market will develop in the future.
Distributions of Net Cash From Operations, when made, are paid on a quarterly
basis, with distributions generally occurring approximately 45 days after the
end of each fiscal quarter. Such distributions have been made primarily from
net operating income with respect to the Partnership's investment in the
Properties and from interest on short-term investments, and partially from
excess cash reserves. Information on cash distributions paid by the
Partnership for the past two fiscal years is incorporated by reference to the
Partnership's Annual Report to Unitholders for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 1997, which is filed as an exhibit under Item 14. The level of
future distributions will be evaluated on a quarterly basis and will depend
on the Partnership's operating results and future cash needs.
Item 6. Selected Financial Data
Incorporated by reference to the Partnership's Annual Report to Unitholders for
the year ended December 31, 1997, which is filed as an exhibit under Item 14.
Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At December 31, 1997, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of
$1,109,506, that were invested in unaffiliated money market funds, an increase
from $962,290 at December 31, 1996. The increase is attributable to net cash
provided by operating activities exceeding cash used for distributions,
mortgage principal payments, and additions to investments in real estate. The
Partnership also maintains a restricted cash balance, which totaled $342,282 at
December 31, 1997, an increase from $317,268 at December 31, 1996, representing
escrows for insurance and real estate taxes required under the terms of the
current mortgage loans. The Partnership expects sufficient cash to be
generated from operations to meet its current operating expenses.
Accounts payable and accrued expenses totaled $197,443 at December 31, 1997, an
increase from $127,810 at December 31, 1996. The increase is primarily due to
differences in the timing of payments between the two periods.
Distribution payable decreased from $200,000 at December 31, 1996 to $0 at
December 31, 1997. The decrease reflects the suspension of quarterly
distributions commencing in the first quarter of 1997 in order to fund roof
replacements at Ponte Vedra Beach Village I. In future quarters, the General
Partner will assess the Partnership's ability to reinstate cash distributions
based on the Partnership's operating results and future cash needs.
The Partnership continues to perform various improvements at the Properties,
which include roof replacements at Ponte Vedra Beach Village I. Other repair
work was also performed to prepare vacant units for reoccupancy. Existing
problems with the roofs at Ponte Vedra Beach Village I were aggravated by
severe tropical rain storms late in 1996. The roof replacements were
substantially completed in September 1997 at a cost of approximately $400,000
which was funded from the Partnership's operating cash flow and cash reserves.
The Partnership will evaluate the need for additional improvement work at the
Properties on an ongoing basis.
The General Partner is continuing to evaluate the sale potential of the
remaining properties and other options with respect to the Partnership's
investments. One of these options includes refinancing certain loans secured
by the Properties in order to return capital to the limited partners on a
tax-free basis and lock in favorable fixed interest rates. This would also
potentially enhance the marketability of the Properties, while enabling the
Partnership to take advantage of possible future property appreciation. The
Partnership's ability to sell the properties is dependent upon a variety of
factors, many of which are not within the Partnership's control. There can be
no assurance that any specific property or all the Properties can be sold, that
particular prices will be achieved, or that the Properties can be sold within a
specific time frame.
Results of Operations
1997 versus 1996
Partnership operations for the year ended December 31, 1997 resulted in a net
loss of $202,655 compared with a net loss of $2,600 in 1996. The higher net
loss in 1997 is due primarily to an increase in property operating expenses and
the write-off of the remaining basis of the roofs replaced in 1997. Net cash
provided by operating activities decreased to $979,104 for the year ended
December 31, 1997, from $1,333,646 in 1996. The decrease is primarily due to
the higher net loss in 1997, as discussed above, and a reduction in the amount
of restricted cash released.
Rental income for the year ended December 31, 1997 was $4,327,499, up slightly
from $4,264,370 in 1996, primarily as a result of increases in rental rates at
Rancho Antigua and Creekside Oaks. Interest and other income totaled $56,229
for the year ended December 31, 1997, largely unchanged from $63,467 in 1996.
Property operating expenses increased to $2,329,300 for the year ended December
31, 1997, from $2,222,474 for 1996. The increase is primarily attributable to
higher repairs and maintenance expenses at Ponte Vedra Beach Village I and
Rancho Antigua, and higher landscaping costs at Rancho Antigua. The increase
is also due to higher rental administration costs at both properties.
General and administrative expenses increased from $181,896 for the year ended
December 31, 1996 to $213,441 in 1997. The increase is primarily due to an
increase in expenses for Partnership accounting, tax and other administrative
services. During the 1997 period, certain expenses incurred by RI 2, its
affiliates, and an unaffiliated third party service provider in servicing the
Partnership, which were voluntarily absorbed by affiliates of RI 2 in prior
periods, were reimbursable to RI 2 and its affiliates.
1996 versus 1995
Partnership operations for the year ended December 31, 1996 resulted in a net
loss of $2,600, compared with a net loss of $112,522 in 1995. As a result of
the sale of Country Place Village I in July 1995, the Partnership realized a
gain of $232,402. Excluding this gain, the Partnership incurred a loss from
operations of $344,924 for the year ended December 31, 1995. The decline in net
loss is primarily the result of a decline in property operating expenses and
other expense categories due to the sale of Country Place Village I in July
1995.
Rental income totaled $4,264,370 for the year ended December 31, 1996 compared
with $4,448,549 in 1995. The decrease is primarily due to the sale of Country
Place Village I in July 1995. This was partially offset by increases in rental
income at Creekside Oaks, Rancho Antigua and Ponte Vedra Beach Village I,
primarily reflecting rental rate increases instituted during the year.
Property operating expenses totaled $2,222,474 for the year ended December 31,
1996, compared with $2,515,717 in 1995. The decrease is primarily due to the
sale of Country Place Village I, and lower repairs and maintenance expenses at
Creekside Oaks. This was partially offset by an increase in repairs and
maintenance expenses at Ponte Vedra Beach Village I. Interest expense and
depreciation and amortization expense both decreased from 1995, primarily due
to the sale of Country Place Village I. General and administrative expense
totaled $181,896 for the year ended December 31, 1996 compared with $222,881
for the year ended December 31, 1995. The decrease primarily reflects a
reduction in legal expenses and lower Partnership administrative expenses in
the 1996 period.
The average occupancy levels at each of the properties owned for the full year
during the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995 were as follows:
Twelve Months Ended December 31,
-----------------------------------------------------------
Property 1997 1996 1995
Creekside Oaks 95% 94% 93%
Ponte Vedra Beach Village I 93% 95% 96%
Rancho Antigua 94% 94% 92%
Village at the Foothills I 92% 94% 95%
-----------------------------------------------------------

of Information about Capital Structure," SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
Income," and SFAS No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and
Related Information." These statements, which are effective for fiscal years

position, results of operations or cash flows.

Incorporated by reference to the Partnership's Annual Report to Unitholders for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 1997, which is filed as an exhibit under

that it was changing accounting firms and engaged KPMG Peat Marwick LLP.

ended December 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995 contained no adverse opinion or

accounting principles. There have been no disagreements with Coopers & Lybrand
L.L.P. on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial
statement disclosure, or auditing scope procedure.

General Partners of the Partnership at that time.

Message to Investors
Presented for your review is the 1997 Annual Report for ConAm Realty Investors
2 L.P. (the "Partnership"). In this report we discuss general market
conditions affecting the Partnership's four remaining properties (the
"Properties"). We have also included a performance summary which addresses
operations at each of the properties and financial highlights for the year.
This annual report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. Actual results could differ materially from those
projected in or contemplated by the forward-looking statements as a result of a
number of factors, including those identified herein.
Cash Distributions
- ------------------
As previously reported, the Partnership suspended quarterly cash distributions
beginning in the first quarter of 1997 in order to fund roof replacements at
Ponte Vedra Beach Village I. The replacements were completed in September 1997
at a cost of approximately $400,000. Since inception, the Partnership has paid
distributions totaling $337.19 per original $500 Unit, including $220.00 in
return of capital payments. In future quarters, the General Partner will
assess the Partnership's ability to reinstate cash distributions based on the
Partnership's operating results and future cash needs.
Operations Overview
- -------------------
In 1997, operations at the Partnership's properties continued to be impacted to
varying degrees by strong competition for tenants in the markets where the
properties are located. Although population and job growth remained strong in
Arizona and Florida, the addition of newly constructed complexes, especially in
the Jacksonville market, limited rental rate increases and caused overall
vacancy rates to rise. In Tucson, where Village at the Foothills I is located,
many high-end renters opted to purchase homes due to low interest rates. In
Scottsdale, where Rancho Antigua is located, the market again experienced slow
growth during the year as a result of increased construction. Despite these
trends, strong economic growth in all three areas helped strengthen
multi-family housing, and the Properties sustained a collective average
occupancy of 93.5% in 1997 compared with 94.3% in 1996. In addition, the
appraised values of the Properties increased by 4.1% in total when compared to
the prior year.
The General Partner is continuing to evaluate the sale potential of the
remaining properties and other options with respect to the Partnership's
investments. One of these options includes refinancing certain loans secured
by the Properties in order to return capital to the limited partners on a
tax-free basis and lock in favorable fixed interest rates. This would also
potentially enhance the future marketability of the Properties, while enabling
the Partnership to take advantage of possible future property appreciation. The
Partnership's ability to sell the Properties is dependent upon a variety of
factors, many of which are not within the Partnership's control. There can be
no assurance that any specific property or all the properties can be sold, that
particular prices will be achieved, or that the Properties can be sold within a
specific time frame. We will keep you apprised of our sales efforts in future
correspondence.
Summary
- -------
We will continue to monitor market conditions at the Properties, and evaluate
the potential refinancing of the Partnership's mortgage obligations. In the
interim, we intend to maximize the performance of the Properties and further
improve their appearance and condition. We will keep you apprised of
significant developments affecting your investment in future reports.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Daniel J. Epstein

Performance Summary
Creekside Oaks - Jacksonville, Florida
- --------------------------------------
Creekside Oaks is a 120-unit apartment community situated in the
Baymeadows-Deerwood neighborhood of southeast Jacksonville. The property
reported average occupancy of 95% in 1997, up slightly from 94% in 1996, and a
3% increase in rental income. In 1997, the Jacksonville market experienced a
significant increase in new construction and the issuance of new construction
permits, partially due to its 1996 ranking as one of the fastest growing labor
markets in the country. This new construction is expected to soften the market
by outpacing population and job growth and will continue to affect the region
for the next several months, as new units become available. While vacancy
rates remained low in 1997, the use of rental concessions in the marketplace
has recently increased to attract and retain tenants in anticipation of the new
competition.
Ponte Vedra Beach Village I - Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida
- --------------------------------------------------------
Ponte Vedra Beach Village I is a 122-unit luxury apartment complex located in
an oceanside residential area to the southeast of Jacksonville. The property
reported an average occupancy level of 93% in 1997, down slightly from 95% in
1996. Property improvements for the year included extensive roof replacements,
carpet replacement and other improvements to increase the appearance of the
property. Favorable market conditions in the Jacksonville area have led to an
increase in new multifamily construction, with new construction permits issued
for approximately 3,831 new apartment units throughout the year. Although
population and job growth in the Jacksonville area remains high, continuing
construction at this pace could lead to softness in the market in the future.
Rancho Antigua - Scottsdale, Arizona
- ------------------------------------
Rancho Antigua is a 220-unit apartment community located eight miles northeast
of Phoenix in southwest Scottsdale. The property reported average occupancy of
94% in 1997, unchanged from 94% in 1996, and an increase in rental income due
to an increase in rental rates. The Scottsdale apartment market experienced
continued strong competition during 1997, reflecting high levels of
construction and notable competition from condominiums and single family
houses, as affordable prices and low mortgage rates enticed renters to buy.
Although vacancy rates in Phoenix and the Scottsdale submarket remained low in
1997, occupancy levels are expected to decline due to the significant new
construction. The Scottsdale market is experiencing strong job and population
growth with over 70,000 new jobs created in the first six months of 1997 and
over 100,000 new residents added to the market during the year. This economic
growth should favorably impact the market, and ease competition until the pace
of new construction subsides.
Village at the Foothills I - Tucson, Arizona
- --------------------------------------------
Village at the Foothills I is a 60 unit apartment community located in the
northwest area of Tucson. The property maintained an average occupancy rate of
92% during 1997, compared to 94% in 1996. Apartment vacancy rates remain high
in this market, but significant population growth in Tucson over the last few
years is slowly reducing the number of available units. Low interest rates and
affordable home prices have also increased competition by luring many renters
to purchase homes. This competition has led to the reemergence of rental
incentives and other concessions in the marketplace to attract tenants. Strong
competition for tenants is likely to continue as the addition of new properties
puts further pressure on occupancies.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995
1. Organization
ConAm Realty Investors 2 L.P. (formerly Hutton/ConAm Realty Investors 2) (the
"Partnership") was organized as a limited partnership under the laws of the
State of California pursuant to a Certificate and Agreement of Limited
Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement") dated December 17, 1981, as amended
and restated October 8, 1982. The Partnership was formed for the purpose of
acquiring and operating certain types of residential real estate. The original
co-General Partners of the Partnership were RI 2 Real Estate Services Inc.
("RI-2"), an affiliate of Lehman Brothers Inc., and ConAm Property Services II,
Ltd. ("CPS II"), an affiliate of Continental American Properties, Ltd. (the
"General Partners"). On January 27, 1998, CPS II acquired RI-2's co-general
partner interest in the Partnership effective July 1, 1997, pursuant to a
purchase agreement between CPS II and RI-2 dated August 29, 1997. As a result,
CPS II now serves as the sole general partner of the Partnership. The
Partnership will continue until December 31, 2010 unless sooner terminated
pursuant to the terms of the Partnership Agreement.
2. Significant Accounting Policies and Practices
Financial Statements The consolidated financial statements are prepared on the
accrual basis of accounting and include the accounts of the Partnership and its
affiliated ventures when the Partnership has a controlling interest in the
ventures. The effect of transactions between the Partnership and its ventures
have been eliminated in consolidation.
Investments in Real Estate Investments in real estate are recorded at cost
less accumulated depreciation and include the initial purchase price of the
property, legal fees, acquisition and closing costs.
Revenue is recognized when earned and expenses (including depreciation) are
recognized when incurred in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. Leases are generally for terms of one year or less.
Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method based upon the
estimated useful lives of the properties (25 years). Maintenance and repairs
are charged to operations as incurred. Costs incurred for significant
betterments and improvements are capitalized and depreciated over their
estimated useful lives.
For assets sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated
depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is
reflected in net income (loss) for the period.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to be Disposed Of" ("FAS 121"), requires the Partnership to assess its
real estate investments for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the real estate may not be
recoverable. Recoverability of real estate to be held and used is measured by
a comparison of the carrying amount of the real estate to future net cash flows
(undiscounted and without interest) expected to be generated by the real
estate. If the real estate is considered to be impaired, the impairment to be
recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the real
estate exceeds the fair value of the real estate.
Other Assets Included in other assets are costs incurred in connection with
obtaining financing for the Partnership's properties. Such costs are amortized
over the initial term of the mortgages payable on a method which approximates
the effective-interest method.
Income Taxes No provision for income taxes has been made in the financial
statements as the liability for such taxes is that of the partners rather than
the Partnership.
Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid
short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less.
Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments which potentially subject
the Partnership to a concentration of credit risk principally consist of cash
and cash equivalents and restricted cash in excess of the financial
institution's federally insured limits. The Partnership invests its cash and
cash equivalents and restricted cash with high credit quality federally insured
financial institutions.
Restricted Cash Restricted cash consists of escrows for real estate taxes and
insurance as required by the first mortgage lender.
Use of Estimates Management of the Partnership has made a number of estimates
and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities, the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the
reporting period to prepare these financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
3. The Partnership Agreement
The Partnership Agreement provides that net cash from operations, as defined,
is to be distributed quarterly, 90% to the limited partners and 10% to the
General Partners.
Net loss is to be allocated 99% to the limited partners and 1% to the General
Partners. Net income is to be generally allocated in accordance with the
distribution of net cash from operations.
Net proceeds from sales or refinancing are to be distributed 99% to the limited
partners and 1% to the General Partners until each limited partner has received
an amount equal to his adjusted capital value (as defined) and an annual,
non-compounded cumulative 7% return thereon. The balance, if any, is to be
distributed 85% to the limited partners and 15% to the General Partners. Gain
from sales is to be allocated to each partner having a negative capital account
balance, pro-rata, to the extent of such negative balance. Thereafter, such
gain is to be allocated in accordance with the distribution of net proceeds
from sale or refinancing, with the balance allocated to the limited partners.
4. Investments in Real Estate
The Partnership owns four residential apartment complexes that were acquired
either directly or through investments in joint ventures as follows:
Apartment Date Purchase
Property Name Units Location Acquired Price
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Creekside Oaks 120 Jacksonville, FL 11/18/83 $6,254,953
Ponte Vedra Beach
Village I 122 Ponte Vedra Beach, FL 2/10/84 7,196,318
Rancho Antigua 220 Scottsdale, AZ 3/8/84 11,465,844
Village at the
Foothills I 60 Tucson, AZ 2/27/85 3,804,103
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On July 20, 1995, the Partnership sold Country Place Village I to an
institutional buyer (the "Buyer"), which was unaffiliated with the Partnership.
The selling price was determined by arm's length negotiations between the
Partnership and the Buyer. Country Place Village I was sold for $3,665,000,
which includes the assumption of the mortgage payable on Country Place Village
I by the Buyer in the amount of $2,051,078. The Partnership received net
proceeds of $1,522,242. On August 17, 1995, the Partnership paid a special
distribution of $1,600,000 to the partners. The special distribution was
comprised of net proceeds from the sale of Country Place Village I and
Partnership cash reserves. The transaction resulted in a gain on sale of
$232,402. The gain was allocated in accordance with the Partnership Agreement.
The joint venture agreement of Rancho Antigua substantially provides that:
a. Net cash from operations is to be distributed 100% to the
Partnership until it has received an annual, noncumulative
12% return on its adjusted capital contribution. Any
remaining balance is to be distributed 60% to the Partnership
and 40% to the co-venturer.
b. Net income of the joint venture and gain from sale is to be
allocated basically in accordance with the distribution of
net cash from operations, as defined, and net proceeds from
sales, respectively. All net losses are to be allocated 98%
to 100% to the Partnership depending on the joint venture
agreement.
c. Net proceeds from a sale or refinancing is to be distributed
100% to the Partnership until it has received an amount equal
to 120% of its adjusted capital contribution and an annual,
cumulative 12% return on its adjusted capital contribution.
Thereafter, the Partnership is to receive approximately 50%
to 75% of the balance depending on the joint venture
agreement.
The joint venture agreements and limited partnership agreements of Country
Place Village I, Creekside Oaks, Ponte Vedra Beach Village I and Village at
the Foothills I substantially provide that:
a. Available cash from operations is to be distributed 100% to
the Partnership until it has received an annual, non-
cumulative preferred return, as defined. Any remaining
balance is to be distributed 99% to the Partnership and 1% to
the General Partners.
b. Net income is to be allocated first, proportionately to
partners with negative capital accounts, as defined, until
such capital accounts, as defined, have been increased to
zero then, to the Partnership up to the amount of any
payments made on account of its preferred return; thereafter,
99% to the Partnership and 1% to the General Partners. All
losses are to be allocated first, to the partners with
positive capital accounts, as defined, until such accounts
have been reduced to zero then 99% to the Partnership and 1%
to the General Partners.
c. Income from a sale is to be allocated first, to the
Partnership until the Partnership's capital accounts, as
defined, are equal to the fair market value of the ventures'
assets at the date of the amendments then, any remaining
balance will be allocated 99% to the Partnership and 1% to
the General Partners. Net proceeds from a sale or
refinancing are to be distributed first to the partners with
a positive capital account balance, as defined; thereafter,
99% to the Partnership and 1% to the General Partners.
5. Mortgages Payable
On October 28, 1993, the Partnership obtained replacement financing on its
Creekside Oaks, Ponte Vedra Beach I, Rancho Antigua and Country Place Village I
properties totaling $14,450,000. The loans are secured by the respective
properties and an assignment of rents and leases and bear interest at an annual
rate of 7.75%. Each of the loans is a non-recourse loan with monthly payments
of principal and interest of $93,283 based on a twenty-five year amortization
schedule and a seven year term with the balance of the principal due on
November 1, 2000. On July 20, 1995, County Place Village I was sold and the
underlying mortgage, in the amount of $2,051,078, was assumed by the Buyer.
Mortgages payable at December 31, 1997, consist of the following first mortgage
loans:
Property Principal
---------------------------------------------------
Creekside Oaks $ 2,479,399
Ponte Vedra Beach Village I 3,742,489
Rancho Antigua 5,333,047
---------------------------------------------------
Annual maturities of mortgage principal at December 31, 1997 are as follows:
Year Amount
---------------------------------
1998 $232,016
1999 250,650
2000 11,072,269
---------------------------------
Total $11,554,935
---------------------------------
6. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair
Value of Financial Instruments," requires that the fair values be disclosed for
the Partnership's financial instruments. The carrying amount of cash and cash
equivalents, restricted cash, distribution payable, accounts payable and
accrued expenses, due to affiliates and security deposits are reasonable
estimates of their fair values due to the short-term nature of those
instruments.
The carrying amount of the mortgages payable is a reasonable estimate of fair
value based on management's belief that the interest rates and terms of the
debt are comparable to those commercially available to the Partnership in the
marketplace for similar instruments.

(1) This represents the December 31, 1997 Appraised Values which were
determined by an independent property appraisal firm.
(2) The Partnership Net Asset Value assumes a hypothetical sale at
December 31, 1997 of all the Partnership's properties at a price based
upon their value as a rental property as determined by an independent
property appraisal firm, and the distribution of the proceeds of such
sale, combined with the Partnership's cash after liquidation of the
Partnership's assets and liabilities, to the partners.
Limited Partners should note that appraisals are only estimates of current
value and actual values realizable upon sale may be significantly different. A
significant factor in establishing an appraised value is the actual selling
price for properties which the appraiser believes are comparable. In addition,
the appraised value does not reflect the actual costs which would be incurred
in selling the properties. As a result of these factors and the illiquid
nature of an investment in Units of the Partnership, the variation between the
appraised value of the Partnership's properties and the price at which Units of
the Partnership could be sold may be significant. Fiduciaries of Limited
Partners which are subject to ERISA or other provisions of law requiring
valuations of Units should consider all relevant factors, including, but not
limited to Net Asset Value per Unit, in determining the fair market value of
the investment in the Partnership for such purposes.
