Attention: Mr. John K. Powell, Jr. - First Vice President
Gentlemen:
In accordance with your request, we are pleased to submit our opinion of the
Value of a Limited Partnership Interest in:
Balcor Pension Investors - III
(An Illinois Limited Partnership)
as of March 31, 1996.
The term "Value" is defined as follows:
The amount, in dollars, which a Limited Partnership Interest in Balcor
Pension Investors - III is worth to an investor who owns the Interest with
the intention of holding it to maturity, who fully understands the
complexities of the investment, and has an interest in the potential
interest income and capital appreciation of the Limited Partnership
Interest. The valuation does not represent the amount that would be
received by a holder of a Limited Partnership Interest should he/she
decide to liquidate the Interest prior to the maturity of the Partnership.
The value is subject to the terms and limiting conditions set forth in
this report.
At present it is anticipated that Balcor Pension Investors - III will close by
the end of 1998.
Based on our analyses and conclusions set forth in this report, the estimated
Value of a Limited Partnership Interest in Balcor Pension Investors - III, as
of March 31, 1996, was in the rounded amount of:
$196.00
=======
Adjusted Original Capital per Limited Partnership Interest, as of March 31,
1996, was $282.92.
-------
For the quarter ended June 30, 1995, the value of a Limited Partnership
Interest was reduced $23.00, mainly the result of a distribution of $25.00 per
Limited Partnership Interest as a Return of Capital in April 1995.
<PAGE>
For the quarter ended September 30, 1995, the value of a Limited Partnership
Interest decreased $29.00 as a result of a distribution of $31.94 per Limited
Partnership Interest as a Return of Capital in July 1995, an increase of $1.2
million in the allocated value of Perimeter 400 asset, an increase of $1.5
million in the value of the Woods asset, and a decrease of $2.3 million in the
value of the Seafirst Financial Center mortgage loan.
For the quarter ended December 31, 1995, the value of a Limited Partnership
Interest decreased $56.00 mainly due to a distribution in October, 1995 of
$52.18 per Limited Partnership Interest as a Return of Capital and a
distribution of $11.00 per Limited Partnership Interest vs. a normal
distribution of $4.00 per Limited Partnership Interest as a Return on Capital,
as of September 30, 1995. The value of the assets remained substantially the
same.
For the quarter ended March 31, 1996, the value of a Limited Partnership
Interest decreased $24.00 due mainly to a distribution of $22.96 per Limited
Partnership Interest as a Return of Capital.
It is noted that this is prior to any distributions to the Limited Partners
under the Early Investment Incentive Fund. The present value of a Unit of the
Early Investment Incentive Fund, as of March 31, 1996, was in the rounded
amount of:
(1) Early Investors on or before September 30, 1982 $17.00
======
(2) Early Investors purchasing units between
October 1, 1982 and December 31, 1982 $17.00
------
Some of the funds received from prepayments and/or excess funds have been
invested in first mortgage loans vis-a-vis wrap-around mortgage loans. The cash
flows from these first mortgage loans are discounted at a risk rate somewhat
less than the rate used for wrap-around mortgage loans to compensate for the
lower risk.
The variable components in the total Value of a Limited Partnership Interest
and their values, as estimated by Valuation Counselors Group, Inc./Darby &
Associates Joint Venture (Schedule E), are as follows:
Net Investment in Loans Receivable $16,253,952
Unamortized Portion of the Offering Expenses 1,582,230
Real Estate Owned 25,198,063

The stated objectives of Balcor Pension Investors - III are as follows:
1.Preservation and protection of Limited Partners' capital;
2.Provide the Limited Partners with regular quarterly cash
distributions;
3.Provide the Limited Partners with additional cash distributions
through the receipt of deferred interest; and
<PAGE>
4.Maximize cash distributions over the life of the Partnership estimated
to be 12 to 15 years) through the receipt of additional interest in the form of
equity participations.
In the wrap-around mortgage portion of the portfolio, the intent is to generate
a higher total return on investment through the "equity buildup" portion of a
wrap-around mortgage whereby there is a spread in the principal reduction
between the wrap-around mortgage and the underlying mortgage loans. Although
there is a mathematical buildup of this equity during the life of the loan, the
material benefit of the equity buildup normally is not realized until the
maturity of the wrap-around loan - which usually occurs in a period of from ten
to fifteen years from the initial funding of the loan. In addition, there are
potential additional earnings available from a participation in the future
gross income as well as a participation in the appreciated value on which
Balcor Pension Investors - III has made mortgage loans to date. These potential
earnings are commonly known as "kickers."

The Partnership Agreement provides that the General Partner will receive
mortgage placement fees (points) and standby loan commitment fees paid by
borrowers, subject to certain limitations, when the Partnership funds mortgage
loans or issues commitments to fund mortgage loans. The General Partner will
service the Partnership's mortgages and will receive a mortgage servicing fee,
payable not more frequently than monthly, at an annual rate equal to 1/4 of 1%
of the amounts advanced by the Partnership and outstanding from time to time.
The General Partner is also reimbursed for certain expenses incurred in the day
to day operations of the Partnership.
All profits and losses of the Partnership are allocated 99% to the capital
accounts of the Limited Partners and 1% to the capital accounts of the General
Partner. To the extent that cash flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement)
is distributed, distributions will be made as follows: (i) 90% of such cash
flow will be distributed to the Limited Partners, (ii) 7.5% of such cash flow
will be distributed to the General Partner, and (iii) 2.5% of such cash flow
will be set aside in the Early Investment Incentive Fund, described as follows:
Early Investment Incentive Fund:
Twenty-five per cent of the General Partner's share shall be set aside in
the Early Investment Incentive Fund hereinafter described for payment to
Early Investors if necessary for them to receive on dissolution of the
Partnership a return of their Original Capital plus a Cumulative Return
determined as follows: (i) for Interests purchased on or before September
30, 1982, the greater of 20% per year, subject to increase from time to
time in the sole discretion of the General Partner, or 4% per year above
the Average Composite AA Bond Yield as measured by Standard & Poor's ("AA
Bond Yield") in effect as of December 31, 1982; and (ii) for Interests
purchased between October 1, 1982, and December 31, 1982, the greater of
18% per year, subject to increase from time to time in the sole discretion
of the General Partner, or 2% per year above the AA Bond Yield in effect
as of December 31, 1982. The AA Bond Yield was 13.99% as of August 12,
1982, and is published periodically in various Standard and Poor's
publications. After Early Investors have received such return the amount
remaining in the Early Investors Incentive Fund will be distributed 90% to
all Limited Partners and 10% to the General Partner. In the event that on
dissolution of the Partnership, cash available for distribution and the
amount in the Early Investment Incentive Fund are not sufficient to return
to Early Investors their Original Capital plus the Cumulative Return, the
amount of any funds in the Early Investment Incentive fund will be
distributed first to all Early Investors until they shall have received a
Cumulative Return to equal to the rate described in period (ii) above, and
then to those Early Investors who purchased Interests in period (i) above.
<PAGE>
As noted above, 25% of the General Partner's share of Cash Flow shall be
set aside in the Early Investment Incentive Fund when and as distributions
in Cash Flow are made to the Limited Partners and the General Partner.
The amounts in the Early Investment Incentive Fund will be kept separate
and apart from other Partnership funds and may be utilized to repurchase
Interests from Limited Partners as set forth under "Description of the
Partnership Agreement - Repurchase of Interest." To the extent that the
amounts in the Early Investment Incentive Fund are not so utilized, it is
intended that such amounts shall, pending their distribution to Early
Investors, Limited Partners and the General Partners as described above,
be temporarily invested in United States government securities, securities
issued or guaranteed by United States government agencies, certificates of
deposit and time or demand deposits in state or national bankers'
acceptances, savings and loan association deposits or deposits in members
of the Federal Home Loan Bank System, commercial paper, securities of
mutual funds which invest exclusively in "money market" instruments with
maturities generally not exceeding one year, and other similar
investments.

VALUATION OF A LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INTEREST
The methodology used in estimating the Value of a Limited Partnership Interest
in Balcor Pension Investors - III is based upon substituting the estimated
value of the mortgage loan portfolio in place of the "Net Investment in Loans
Receivable" as shown on the March 31, 1996, Balance Sheet of Balcor Pension
Investors - III. In addition, the unamortized portion of the Offering Expenses
is added to the Assets on the same Balance Sheet. The amortization is
calculated by reducing the total Offering Expenses, as set forth in the
financial statements, on a straight line basis, quarterly, to the expiration
date of the loan portfolio. For financial reporting purposes, Balcor Pension
Investors - III initially deducted the total Offering Expenses from the
proceeds of the Limited Partnership Interest. Where equities exist, they are
included in the Balance Sheet (Schedule E) at their market value based on
independent real estate appraisals or estimates based on the cash flows of the
properties. Schedules D-1 and D-2 summarize the calculations of Partnership
Asset Values for the Real Estate Acquired Through Foreclosure.
Future General Partner fees and related expenses are not present valued as an
expense because of their unpredictability but rather are taken as a charge in
the quarter incurred.
Valuation Counselors Group, Inc./Darby & Associates Joint Venture has been
retained by Balcor Mortgage Advisors - III to estimate the Value of a Limited
Partnership Interest in Balcor Pension Investors - III on a quarterly basis.
In order to accomplish this, we valued the "Net Investment in Loans Receivable"
as well as calculated the "Unamortized Portion of the Offering Expenses."
Cash and Investments in Certificates of Deposit and Marketable Securities are
considered short term investments since eventually all but a working capital
reserve will be funded in real estate loans and real estate owned or returned
to the investor. Consequently, they remain in the valuation at face value in
both Schedules B-1 and E.
A simplified version of the Balance Sheet of Balcor Pension Investors - III,
prepared by Balcor Mortgage Advisors - III, before the aforementioned
adjustments, is on the following Schedule B-1. Schedules B-2 and B-3 are
Statements of Income and Expense.

VALUATION OF "THE NET INVESTMENT IN LOANS RECEIVABLE"
The value of the "Net Investment in Loans Receivable" (the loan portfolio) is
equal to the present value of the various income and equity components of the
loan portfolio, discounted at current market rates of interest, commensurate
with the risks, as of March 31, 1996.
The income and equity components of the loan portfolio are as follows:
(1) The present value of the average annual rate of return on funds
advanced (cash received) over the life of the loans,
(2) The present value of the funds advanced, due at maturity,
(3) The present value of the equity buildup for wrap-around mortgage
loans and accrued interest, and
(4) The present value of the "kicker" income, i.e., a share in the future
gross income, and the appreciated value, "equity kicker," in certain
properties.
(1) Discussion of Risk Rates
The discount rate applied to the cash flow mathematically expresses risk. Risk
represents the uncertainty related to achievement of the prospective cash
flows. The primary components of risk exposure in fixed income securities are
interest rate risk, inflation risk, market risk, liquidity risk and risk of
default. As previously discussed, the valuation of the assets in question have
been predicated upon the present valuing of the components of the loan
portfolio. Therefore, determination of an appropriate risk rate is essential in
the valuation of the net investment in loans receivable.
Financial theory dictates the necessity of incremental return resulting from
incremental risk. Accordingly, the typical risk/return tradeoff indicates that
investors should demand greater rates of return as the perceived riskiness of
the asset or security increases. In examining an investment situation, a
hypothetical investor would weigh the perceived level of risk against the
return expected from the subject investment. In determining the required rate
of return or discount rate on a particular asset or investment, the
hypothetical investor would also consider returns available from alternative
investment opportunities such as government securities, corporate bonds,
mortgages, real estate and common stock, if applicable.
The subject assets consist of a self-liquidating real estate investment fund
with investments in both real estate loans with varying maturities and real
estate assets. Accordingly, in determining an appropriate risk rate associated
with the subject assets, we have considered alternative and comparable rates of
return in the lending and real estate marketplace as indicated by such sources
as the Wall Street Journal, Real Estate Research Corporation Real Estate
Report, Investment Dealers Digest, Corporate Financing Week, American Council
of Life Insurance Investment Bulletin and the National Association of Real
Estate Investment Trusts.
The following table presents yield rates associated with various types of
government and corporate securities as indicated by the March 29,1996 and
January 3, 1996 Wall Street Journals.

Ba, C 9.8% 9.7%
Collateralized Mortgage
Obligations
10 Year 7.90% 6.94%
20 year 8.05% 7.17%
Additionally, information from Moody's Corporate Bond Survey and the Investment
Dealer's Digest indicates the corporate original issue Real Estate Mortgage
Investment Conduit (REMIC) yields from 1988 to 1995 ranged from 7% to 11.3% for
obligations with terms in excess of ten years. A yield difference of one to
three points was exhibited within multiple class REMIC issues where accrued
interest payments did not commence on the (higher yielding) security until
senior class notes were paid in full. A short-term issuance collateralized by
elderly living properties exhibited a four point yield differential between
classes.
According to information from the Mortgage-Based Securities Letter, REMIC
issuances in 1994 have decreased substantially from the levels exhibited during
1992 and 1993. Reportedly, many REMIC underwriters and investors incurred
losses due to price corrections in the derivative mortgage securities market.
The price decline was believed to be attributable to several factors including
rising interest rates, increased volatility, average-life extension and lack of
liquidity. According to the Wall Street Journal, new issues of mortgage-backed
securities were down 57% in 1994 as compared to the prior year.
In addition to the previously noted yields on various market securities, we
have also considered mortgage rates associated with various types of commercial
real estate properties. This data is relevant in that it provides an indication
of rates of return associated with similar types of investments. These
statistics have been extracted from the December 29, 1995 and October 1, 1995
editions of the Investment Bulletin published by the American Council of Life
Insurance, is as follows:

Our discount rates have been selected based upon the returns exhibited on

Risk Measurement in Real Estate
As previously discussed, the primary components of risk exposure for fixed
income securities include interest rate risk, inflation risk, market risk,
liquidity risk and default risk. For real estate, these risks are similar and
can be segmented into two categories. The first is systematic risk which
includes all risks external to the property. The remaining risks can be
categorized as nonsystematic risk and includes all risks directly related to
the property. Generally, systematic risk affects the overall market as a whole
and is often referred to as market risk. However, nonsystematic risk is
generally more attributable to the property specifics. Nonsystematic risk can
be further broken down into risk relative to the immediate neighborhood or
local market with the residual risks being unique to the property.
<PAGE>
When viewing an investment in a single property, the systematic overall market
risk, the nonsystematic local market risk and the nonsystematic unique property
risks must be weighed in the derivation of an appropriate risk rate (discount
rate) to be applied to anticipated cash flows. The overall market risks would
include such factors which effect the market as a whole. Among these factors
would be the level of interest rates, the economic condition of the nation,
federal tax incentives related to real estate and the expected inflation rate.
Each of these factors can have a direct effect on real estate throughout the
nation.
Nonsystematic local market risks are those that effect a regional area or
neighborhood and are not part of the overall market risk. There are many types
of possible local market risks. Some examples of local market risk include
fluctuations in the local economy, changes in transportation systems, local
crime rates and over building. These local market risks may be severe enough to
override the effects of the overall market risk.
Property unique risks are those which effect the subject property in a manner
more specific than the local market risks. Many of the property unique risks
are similar to the local market risks but are more significant for the subject
property. Some examples of property specific risks would include dependence on
single industries or tenants, crime frequency on the property, changes in
immediate traffic patterns, changes in adjacent zoning or adjacent property
conditions and unanticipated capital improvement requirements. These property
specific risks may have a material impact on the property but may not be
reflected in the local market risks.
Investments in individual property would reflect three groups of risks
including the systematic overall market risks, the nonsystematic local market
risks and the nonsystematic property unique risks. However, modern portfolio
theory recognizes that through investment diversification, the nonsystematic
risks associated with the local market and the unique attributes of the
property can be reduced. Furthermore, with sufficient diversification, a
portfolio can virtually eliminate nonsystematic risk.
The benefits of portfolio diversification are reflected in the improvement of
the portfolio's return-risk ratio. The return-risk ratio measures the return of
the investment relative to the volatility of the return. Generally, the
volatility of return is measured by the standard deviation of the return over a
period of time. Therefore, the return-risk ratio is simply the return of the
investment divided by the standard deviation of the return.
As an example of the application of this ratio, assume that portfolio A invests
in only one type of property in one local market and experiences an average
annual return of 13% over fifteen years with a standard deviation of return of
17%. The return-risk ratio is computed to be 0.76 (13% divided by 17%).
Portfolio A's risk-return ratio can then be compared to the ratio of other
portfolios to evaluate the level of return relative to the risk taken.
To illustrate, assume portfolio B invests in a wide variety of property types
in a numerous geographical regions and only generated an annual return of 12%
over fifteen years. However, the standard deviation of return was only 13%.
The return-risk ratio is computed to be 0.86 (12% divided by 13%). Even though
portfolio A's return exceeded portfolio B's return, the superior return was not
enough to offset the increase in risk. Therefore, an investor would likely
prefer an investment in Portfolio B.
<PAGE>
It should be noted, however, that with the reduction in the volatility of
returns, modern portfolio theory also recognizes that there is a reduction in
the level of potential return. This is because that volatility generally
provides the opportunity for added returns. This is the basis for the axiom
that greater risk equals greater reward. However, an investor generally
requires that the increase in risk is offset by an increase in potential
return. Conversely, if an investor is looking for a lower risk, the investor
would expect lower returns.
In the instant case, the discount rates selected for the appraisal of
individual properties which are expected to be sold in the near future reflect
all the systematic and nonsystematic risks associated with each individual
property. The discount rates are derived considering overall market factors,
local market factors and property unique factors. However, for those properties
which are valued as real estate investments on the basis of their cash flows,
the discount rate applied reflects the benefits of reduced nonsystematic risks
through portfolio diversification. These benefits include the offsetting of
local market risks and property unique risks of each property with the local
market risks and property unique risks of the other properties in the
portfolio. As a result, the volatility of returns for each property is offset
by the volatility of returns of the other properties in the portfolio. The
discount rates applied to the latter category of properties are derived from
market data on portfolio returns, which reflect the dichotomies described
above.

(2) The Present Value of the Return on Funds Advanced and the Return of
Principal
Schedule C lists the five mortgage loans funded as of December 31, 1995, with
total funds advanced of $14,824,865.
In order to determine the present value of the return on funds advanced, the
interest due in each loan in each year to maturity was calculated on the basis
of the average annual rate of return on funds advanced. This interest was
discounted to a current present value at a market rate of interest. After
reviewing various market rates in effect as of March 31, 1996, including those
set forth in (1) Discussion of Risk Rates, as well as others, and recognizing
the present rates of similar new mortgage loans, we have concluded that a rate
of 10.25% is commensurate for the risk of the first mortgage loans in this Fund
and 11.00% for second mortgage loans and wrap-around mortgage loans.
The present value of the funds advanced is the present value of the principal
of each loan at maturity, discounted to a present value at 10.25% and 11.00% as
indicated. This information is summarized in Schedule C, which follows a later
section of this report.
The total present value of the principal and interest on the mortgage loans in
this Partnership, as of March 31, 1996, is:
$14,743,155
===========
<PAGE>
(3) The Present Value of the Equity Buildup and Accrued Interest
The value of the equity buildup for the wrap-around mortgage loans and accrued
interest is the present value of a known contract amount of monies to be
received at a specific future date. As the loans begin to mature, there is an
increasing amount of equity buildup and accrued interest actually earned and
less equity buildup and accrued interest still to be earned in the future. The
area of judgment in valuing the equity buildup and accrued interest is in the
selection of the discount rates commensurate with the risks. Because equity
buildup and accrued interest are contract amounts to be received the same as
cash interest received and repayment of principal, the same discount rate
applies to all mortgage loans, i.e., 11.00% on wrap-around mortgage loans and
11.00% and 10.25% on accrued interest where indicated.
Schedule C, which follows, includes summaries of the present value of the
equity buildup and accrued interest, by loan, as of March 31, 1996. They
indicated the total amount of funds advanced for each loan, the equity buildup
of the wrap-around mortgage loans and accrued interest discounted at 11.00% and
10.25%. In addition any adjustments to the value of specific mortgage loans
are indicated on Schedule C.
In certain loans the accrued interest payment is effected by the income kicker
wherein the loan agreement calls for the kicker income first to be applied
against accrued interest. The net effect is an increase in the present value of
the accrued interest of the loan as a result of the accelerated payment of the
accrued interest instead of payment at maturity.
The totals are summarized as follows:
Present Value of the Equity Buildup $1,201,153
Present Value of the Accrued Interest 309,644
----------
Total $1,510,797
==========
<PAGE>
(4) The Present Value of the Income and Equity Kickers
On most of the loans Balcor Mortgage Advisors - II initially negotiated
kickers, or additional payments to Balcor Pension Investors - III, contingent
upon the achievement of certain levels of gross income and/or market value. In
some cases Balcor Pension Investors - III is to receive a percent of the gross
income over a specified amount of gross income to be achieved in the future.
There is no assurance that the achievement levels will be attained, nor is
there any assurance that the payments due will be received in whole and on a
timely basis. In other more predictable cases, the percentage share of gross
income may be collected on next year's revenues. Other kickers include
situations where Balcor Pension Investors - III is to receive a percentage of
the proceeds in a sale or refinancing of the property over a stated market or
appraised value.
In estimating the present value of the income kickers where they exist we have
taken the estimated 1991 gross income for each loan subject to an income kicker
and projected the gross income at a compound rate of 4% to the maturity date of
the mortgage loan unless a particular set of circumstances on a mortgage loan
dictate a lower growth rate. The annual projected gross income was compared
with the terms and conditions of the income kicker provision of each loan and,
where payments were due in future years, that amounts were discounted at 15.00%
on first mortgage loans and 18.00% on wrap-around mortgage loans to a present
value. The risk rates of 15.00% on first mortgage loans and 18.00% on
wrap-around mortgage loans are commensurate with the ability of the properties
to achieve their income goals and for Balcor Pension Investors - III to receive
payment.
A different valuation methodology was used to determine the present value of
the equity kickers where they exist. Income was increased at 4% on the
properties unless a particular set of circumstances on a mortgage loan dictate
a lower growth rate. Taxes, insurance, utilities and other expenses were
increased at 4%. To compute the value of the property the resultant net cash
flow from each property was capitalized at 10.25%. The resultant values were
discounted at 15.00% and 18.00% to a present value. This risk rate represents
the degree of risk of the properties to achieve their projected market values
and for Balcor Pension Investors - III to receive payment.
The value of many of the kickers originally included in the mortgage loans have
been deleted on the problem loans and those valued at funds advanced. As of
March 31, 1996, no value was ascribed to the kickers.
<PAGE>
(5) The Present Value of the Notes Receivable
On August 31, 1983 the Greentree Village Apartments property was sold by Green
Tree Associates, Ltd. to T.M. Partners, Ltd. As a result of the sale, Balcor
received $1,291,000 of Sale Interest Proceeds. A Promissory Note in the amount
of $1,291,000 was signed for the Sale Interest to be paid as follows:
a) $433,000 due March 1, 1985 (Paid)
b) Balance of $858,000 due at April 1, 1995 (Maturity)
The Note is in default and we have elected not to assign any value to the Note.
As part of the sale of Elmwood Plantations, Balcor received a Note in the
amount of $400,000, payable as follows:
$100,000 October 31, 1986 (unpaid)
150,000 October 31, 1987 (unpaid)
150,000 October 31, 1988 (unpaid)
The Note maker filed for bankruptcy and, consequently, there is no value to the
Note.

VALUATION OF THE "REAL ESTATE ACQUIRED THROUGH FORECLOSURE"
Balcor Pension Investors - III began in 1982 as a Limited Partnership with an
investment objective to make mortgage loans. Because of the general decline in
the real estate market over the past several years, it was necessary for the
Partnership to acquire a number of the assets, secured by the mortgage loans,
through foreclosure or accepting the deed in lieu of foreclosure. As of March
31, 1996, the Partnership owned two Real Estate Assets Acquired Through
Foreclosure and two investments in joint ventures with an affiliate. Several
have been sold or liquidated prior to this date. On September 20, 1993, the
Riverview Office Building was sold for $1,900,000 and on November 22, 1993, the
Villa Verdi Apartments were sold for $5,425,000. On January 30, 1995, the
Crossings Shopping Center was sold for $776,490 of net proceeds to the
Partnership. On August 23, 1995, the Candlewyck Apartments were sold for net
proceeds of $6,072,257.
In arriving t an estimate of the value of each asset a number of factors were
considered. Important to the analysis was the Partnership's policy on the
assets as to whether an asset would be retained until the maturity of the
Partnership or sold in the near-term. The decision to sell in the near-term
might be on the basis that there is no long-term potential for the asset to
materially increase in value or that substantial dollars might be necessary to
renovate and repair the asset. Also, the Partnership may have received an offer
to purchase the property for a price that would be difficult to refuse, based
on the factors known at this time. The decision to hold until the maturity of
the Partnership indicates it is to be considered as an investment and the
assumption that the asset will grow in value.
Schedule D-1 lists the four Real Estate Assets in Balcor Pension Investors -
III presently owned by the Partnership. The first column indicates the Asset
Present Value without regard to potential payments to the General Partner. The
remaining columns set forth the calculations to determine if their is Excess
Value, and, if so, what is due the General Partner. The last column is the
Partnership Asset Value, which is equal to the Asset Present Value minus the
General Partner Share of Excess. The Partnership Asset Value includes the
Underlying Mortgage, where applicable, since the underlying mortgage is
deducted later in Schedule E - Liabilities.
Schedule D-2 is a summary of the calculations of the Asset Present Value for
each real estate asset in Balcor Pension Investors - III. Perimeter 400 Center
and Stemmons Center, which are also held by several affiliated Partnerships,
have been valued on the basis of 1996 projected cash flows. Orchards Center and
The Woods Apts. have been valued on the basis of their latest appraised value.
This was done because it is expected that this Partnership will be closed in
1998 because of the mortgage loan maturities, so it is not reasonable to assume
that the real estate assets will be held beyond that period for long term
investment value. Since the affiliated Partnerships holdings of portions of
Perimeter 400 Center will close later than Balcor Pension Investors - III, it
is assumed that Balcor Pension Investors - III's portion may be sold to an
affiliated Partnership in order to preserve its long term value.

CALCULATION OF THE INTERESTS IN THE

As described in an earlier section of this report, the Partnership Agreement
provides that, under certain terms and conditions, 2.5% of the cash flow
