                                  (Unaudited)

NOTE 1.
-------

McNeil Pacific Investors Fund 1972 (the  "Partnership") is a limited partnership
organized  under the laws of the State of California to invest in real property.
The general  partner of the Partnership is McNeil  Partners,  L.P. (the "General
Partner"),  a Delaware limited partnership affiliated with Robert A. McNeil. The
principal place of business for the Partnership and the General Partner is 13760
Noel Road, Suite 700, LB70, Dallas, Texas 75240.

In the opinion of management,  the financial  statements reflect all adjustments
necessary for a fair  presentation of the Partnership's  financial  position and
results  of  operations.  All  adjustments  were of a normal  recurring  nature.
However,  the results of operations  for the six months ended June 30, 1995, are
not  necessarily  indicative  of the results to be expected  for the year ending
December 31, 1995.

NOTE 2.
-------

The  financial  statements  should  be read in  conjunction  with the  financial
statements  contained in the  Partnership's  Annual  Report on Form 10-K for the
year  ended  December  31,  1994,  and the  notes  thereto,  as  filed  with the
Securities and Exchange  Commission,  which is available upon request by writing
to McNeil Pacific Investors Fund 1972, c/o McNeil Real Estate Management,  Inc.,
Investor Services, 13760 Noel Road, Suite 700, LB70, Dallas, Texas 75240.

NOTE 3.
-------

Certain prior period amounts within the accompanying  financial  statements have
been reclassified to conform with current year presentation.

NOTE 4.
-------
The General Partner is entitled to receive a partnership management fee equal to
9.5% of  distributions  of cash from  operations  when  distributable  cash from
operations is distributed  to the limited  partners.  No partnership  management
fees were incurred during the six month periods ended June 30, 1995 and 1994.

The  Partnership  pays property  management fees equal to 6% of the gross rental
receipts of the Partnership's  property to McNeil Real Estate  Management,  Inc.
("McREMI"),  an  affiliate  of  the  General  Partner,  for  providing  property
management  and  leasing  services  for the  Partnership's  property.  Prior  to
December 31, 1994, the Partnership paid property  management fees equal to 5% of
the gross rental receipts of the Partnership's properties.

The  Partnership  reimburses  McREMI  for  its  costs,  including  overhead,  of
administering the Partnership's affairs.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
-------  ---------------------------------------------------------------
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
         ---------------------

Since the sale of  Pacesetter  Apartments  on March 17,  1994,  the focus of the
Partnership's  efforts have been directed to the renovation  program at Palm Bay
Apartments (formerly known as Greentree Apartments).  From the beginning of 1994
through  the second  quarter of 1995,  the  Partnership  has  completed  capital
renovation projects totaling $896,528. To date, occupancy at Palm Bay Apartments
has not recovered as much as was hoped. At June 30, 1995,  occupancy at Palm Bay
Apartments stood at 72% down from 79% at March 31, 1995 and from 82% at December
31,  1994.  As the  capital  renovation  program  winds  down,  the focus of the
Partnership  will turn to leasing the restored  units and  increasing  operating
efficiencies at the property.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------

The  Partnership  reported  a loss of  $87,417  for the first six months of 1995
compared to net income of $496,173 for the first six months of 1994. The results
for the first six months of 1994  included a one-time  gain of $574,701 from the
sale of Pacesetter Apartments.  Rental revenues and operating expenses were both
lower for the six months  ending June 30, 1995  because the 1995  figures do not
include  rental  revenues or expenses of  Pacesetter  Apartments  as do the 1994
figures.

Unlike the year-to-date  figures,  the second quarter figures from both 1995 and
1994 contain only operating  results from Palm Bay Apartments.  The net loss for
the second  quarter of 1995  increased  to $73,724 from the $56,223 loss for the
second quarter of 1994. During the second quarter,  Palm Bay expenses  increased
faster than did revenues from the property.

Revenues:

Rental  revenues  decreased  $75,095  or 9.5% for the first  six  months of 1995
compared to the first six months of 1994. The decrease is entirely  attributable
to the sale of Pacesetter Apartments in March 1994. Rental revenue from Palm Bay
Apartments  increased  $68,021 or 10.7%. For the second quarter,  rental revenue
from Palm Bay Apartments  increased  8.7%. The  Partnership was able to increase
base rental rates due to the major capital  improvements  undertaken at Palm Bay
Apartments. Besides improving the overall condition of the property, the capital
improvements  also restored  approximately 70  out-of-service  units to leasable
condition.  The  increase in base  rental  rates was offset by a decrease in the
occupancy rate. The occupancy rate at June 30, 1995 was 72%.

The  Partnership  has not been able to increase  occupancy  rates or base rental
rates as quickly as was hoped.  Several  apartment  communities in the immediate
area have also  undergone  major  rehabilitation,  and several of the  competing
apartment  communities  are able to offer  their  units at rates  that have been
subsidized by various  government  programs.  The effect of the  competition has
restricted the increase in rental revenue that was otherwise  expected from Palm
Bay  Apartments.  Management is  implementing  various  marketing  strategies to
attempt to improve the revenue growth of the property.

Interest  revenues  increased  to $6,354 for the six months ended June 30, 1995.
The  Partnership  had  substantially  more funds  invested  in  interest-bearing
accounts due to the sale of Pacesetter Apartments in the first quarter of 1994.

Revenues  for  1994  also  include  the  one-time  gain on  sale  of  Pacesetter
Apartments.

Expenses:

Partnership expenses decreased $59,852 or 6.8% for the six months ended June 30,
1995.  However,  after excluding expenses  pertaining to Pacesetter  Apartments,
expenses  increased  $115,952  or 19% for the six months  ended  June 30,  1995.
Second quarter results,  which do not include any expenses related to Pacesetter
Apartments,  show an increase in expenses of 43,837 or 11.5%.  The  increases at
Palm  Bay  Apartments  were   concentrated   in  depreciation   and  repair  and
maintenance.

The largest increase, on both an absolute and percentage basis, was the increase
in depreciation  expense. For the six months and the three months ended June 30,
1995  depreciation  expense at Palm Bay Apartments  increased $71,492 or 78% and
$39,212 or 86%, respectively. The increase in depreciation expense is due to the
continuing investment of Partnership resources into capital improvements. In the
year since June 30,  1994,  the  Partnership  has  invested  $773,795 in capital
improvements.  These capital  improvements are generally being  depreciated over
lives ranging from five to ten years.

Repair and  maintenance  expenses at Palm Bay  Apartments  increased  $20,733 or
15.1% and $7,935 or 9.4%,  respectively,  for the six  months  and three  months
period ended June 30, 1995.  Increases  in repairs and  maintenance  expense are
attributable to costs incurred preparing out-of-service units for rental. Repair
and maintenance expenses will likely remain at a relatively high level until the
occupancy rate at Palm Bay Apartments increases to an acceptable level.

Property management fees for the six months and three months ended June 30, 1995
at Palm Bay Apartments increased $9,263 or 30% and $3,414 or 22%. An increase in
rental  receipts,  upon  which  such  fees are  based,  and an  increase  in the
management  fee  percentage to 6% from 5%  (effective  January 1, 1995) were the
reasons for the increase.

Property  tax expense  decreased  $29,475 for the six month ended June 30, 1995.
Most of the decrease was due to the  elimination of property taxes at Pacesetter
Apartments.  However, property taxes also decreased $10,002 or 14.5% at Palm Bay
Apartments due to tax appeals by the  Partnership to local taxing  jurisdictions
that resulted in lower assessments.

The Partnership incurred reduced interest expense for the second quarter of 1995
compared to the second quarter of 1994. Again, the reason was the elimination of
interest charges pertaining to the Pacesetter mortgage note.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
-------------------------------

Cash flows used in operating  activities by  the  Partnership  was  $15,274  for
the  first  six  months  of  1995,  compared  to $20,275 generated by operations
for  the  first six months  of 1994.  Elimination  of  operations  at Pacesetter
Apartments  immediately  improved the  operating  cash  flow of the  Partnership
during  the second quarter  of  1994.   The  Partnership  anticipates  that  the
capital   renovation  projects  at  Palm  Bay Apartments  will  begin  to  yield
improved  cash  flow  from  operations  as  the restored and  refurbished  units
are leased to new tenants.  However,  cash flow from  Palm Bay  Apartments  will
not be sufficient to fund both operating  expenses and debt service requirements
until  the  occupancy  rate of Palm Bay Apartments improves. For the  balance of
1995, the Partnership will use   its  cash   reserves  to   fund   debt  service
requirements if cash from operations is insufficient.

Cash paid to affiliates in 1995 includes an $81,000 brokerage  commission,  paid
in January, related to the sale of  Pacesetter  Apartments in  1994.  This  item
accounts for the $118,565 increase in  cash paid to  affiliates in 1995 compared
to 1994.

The sale of Pacesetter  Apartments in March 1994, provided the largest change in
the cash flows of the Partnership. Cash generated from the sale, after repayment
of the Pacesetter mortgage note, totaled $1,655,173.  The Partnership used these
proceeds to fund capital  improvements at Palm Bay Apartments and to improve the
Partnership's cash reserves.  Cash expended for capital improvements at Palm Bay
Apartments  increased to $248,758 for the second  quarter of 1995 from  $122,733
for the second quarter of 1994.

The  financing  activities  of  the  Partnership,  aside  from  the  March  1994
retirement of the Pacesetter mortgage note, consist of the repayment of the Palm
Bay mortgage  note through  monthly debt service  payments.  These  payments are
scheduled to gradually increase until June 1997, when the Palm Bay mortgage note
matures.

Short Term Liquidity:

Due to the sale of  Pacesetter  Apartments  on March 17, 1994,  the  Partnership
began 1995 with adequate cash  reserves.  A substantial  portion of the proceeds
from  the  sale  of  Pacesetter   Apartments   have  been  invested  in  capital
improvements  at Palm Bay Apartments.  The Partnership has budgeted  $302,000 of
capital   improvements   for  1995  in  addition  to  the  $678,720  of  capital
improvements  made during 1994 and 1993.  The capital  improvements  at Palm Bay
Apartments  are necessary to allow the property to increase its rental  revenues
and become competitive in the Orlando sub-market where the property is located.

At June 30, 1995, the  Partnership  held $736,635 of cash and cash  equivalents,
down $325,726 from the balance at the end of 1994. The Partnership  will use its
cash reserves,  if necessary to complete the capital renovation projects at Palm
Bay Apartments.  The General Partner considers the  Partnership's  cash reserves
adequate for such uses for the balance of 1995.

Long Term Liquidity:

For the long term,  property operations will remain the primary source of funds.
While the present outlook for the Partnership's  liquidity is favorable,  market
conditions  may change and  property  operations  may  deteriorate.  The General
Partner expects that the capital  improvements at Palm Bay Apartments will yield
improved cash flow from  operations  in 1995.  The  Partnership  has budgeted an
additional  $53,000  of capital  improvements  for the  balance of 1995.  If the
Partnership's cash position deteriorates, the General Partner may elect to defer
certain of the capital improvements, except where such improvements are expected
to increase the competitiveness or marketability of the Partnership's property.

The General  Partner has  established a revolving  credit facility not to exceed
$5,000,000 in the aggregate  which is available on a "first-come,  first-served"
basis to the Partnership and other affiliated partnerships if certain conditions
are met.  However,  there is no  assurance  that the  Partnership  will  receive
additional  funds under the facility because no amounts will be reserved for any
particular  partnership.  As of June 30, 1995, $2,362,004 remained available for
borrowing under the facility;  however,  additional funds could become available
as other partnerships repay borrowings.

As a  additional  source of  liquidity,  the  General  Partner  may  attempt  to
refinance the Palm Bay mortgage note. The General Partner  estimates that such a
refinancing  could  yield  proceeds to the  Partnership  in excess of the amount
needed to retire the current mortgage note.  However,  there can be no guarantee
that the Partnership  will be able to obtain such mortgage  refinancing on terms
or in amounts favorable to the Partnership,  or that the cash proceeds from such
refinancing  could  be  timed  to  coincide  with  the  liquidity  needs  of the
Partnership.

Distributions:

Distributions  to partners have been suspended as part of the General  Partner's
policy of maintaining adequate cash reserves. Distributions to Unit holders will
remain suspended for the foreseeable  future.  The General Partner will continue
to monitor the cash  reserves and working  capital needs of the  Partnership  to
determine when cash flows will support distributions to the Unit holders.
