FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

                     Investment Properties Associates Agrees
                           In Principle to Sell Assets

New York, New York, June 24, 1997...  Investment  Properties  Associates ("IPA")
announced today that, subject to a variety of conditions,  including  additional
due  diligence  by the buyer and  definitive  documentation,  IPA has  agreed in
principle to sell  substantially  all of its  interests  in its office  building
properties  in a cash  transaction  valued at  approximately  $255  million.  If
consummated,  the  proceeds  of the  sale  transaction  would  be used to  repay
indebtedness  and other  obligations of IPA of  approximately  $70 million.  The
balance of the net proceeds would,  after transaction  expenses,  be distributed
approximately  one-half to the general and special  limited  partners of IPA and
approximately   one-half  to  the  holders  of  its  participations  of  limited
partnership interest in accordance with IPA's partnership agreement.

     A  spokesman  for IPA  said  that  there  could be no  assurances  that the
conditions  to the  agreement in  principle  would be satisfied or that the sale
would be consummated.

     IPA is a limited  partnership that owns commercial  office buildings in New
York, Chicago, Texas and Newark.
