TO THE LIMITED PARTNERS OF
MCNEIL REAL ESTATE FUND V, LTD.
(THE "PARTNERSHIP")
August 9, 1996
Dear Limited Partner:
Enclosed is information concerning the Meeting of Limited Partners which
will be held on September 10, 1996. Details of the time and place of the
meeting are set forth in the accompanying Notice of Meeting.
McNeil Partners, L.P., the general partner of the Partnership (the "General
Partner"), has approved the proposals described below and recommends that the
Limited Partners vote in favor of such proposals because they are believed to be
in the best interests of the Limited Partners. Enclosed is a Proxy Statement
for your approval of a proposal (i) to authorize McNeil Partners, L.P. (the
"General Partner") of the Partnership to sell the Sycamore Valley Apartments
located in Fountain Valley, California (the "Property"), which Property
constitutes substantially all of the assets of the Partnership, to BRE
Properties, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("BRE"); and (ii) if the sale is
consummated, to approve the dissolution and termination of the Partnership and
to authorize the General Partner to liquidate the Partnership. The purchase
agreement between the Partnership and BRE provides that the gross value of the
consideration for the Property will be approximately $23,085,000, subject to
certain downward adjustments as set forth in the purchase agreement, and based
upon current estimates, (i) the net amount retained by the Partnership from the
sale will be approximately $11.3 million, after approximately $11.8 million of
indebtedness secured by the Property and certain other debts and obligations are
repaid, and (ii) the amount available for distribution to the Limited Partners
will be approximately $11.9 million, or $643.07 per Unit. In addition, on or
about September 1, 1996, the General Partner intends to make a distribution of
$570,000, or approximately $31.28 per Unit, to Limited Partners of record as of
August 1, 1996. We currently anticipate that the proposed sale by the
Partnership will be consummated as soon as practicable after the approval
thereof by the Limited Partners. However, the General Partner has not
determined the precise timing and amount of distributions to the Limited
Partners that would occur after the proposed sale and in connection with the
liquidation of the Partnership due to certain ongoing litigation and potential
indemnification obligations pursuant to such purchase agreement. As described
more fully in the attached Proxy Statement, the General Partner will receive
certain fees in connection with the liquidation of the Partnership.
WE URGE YOU TO READ THE ENCLOSED DOCUMENTS CAREFULLY AND TO RETURN YOUR
SIGNED PROXY AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE. FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE A SELF-ADDRESSED
POSTAGE-PAID RETURN ENVELOPE HAS BEEN INCLUDED.
If you have any questions about the enclosed material, please call the
Investor Operations at (800) 576-7907 or (214) 448-5800.
Very truly yours,
McNEIL PARTNERS, L.P.

PROXY STATEMENT
MEETING OF
LIMITED PARTNERS
TO BE HELD SEPTEMBER 10, 1996
INTRODUCTION
This Proxy Statement is being furnished to Limited Partners of McNeil Real
Estate Fund V, Ltd., a California limited partnership (the "Partnership"), in
connection with the solicitation of proxies by McNeil Partners, L.P., a Delaware
limited partnership (the "General Partner"), to be voted at the Meeting of
Limited Partners to be held on September 10, 1996, at 1:00 p.m., Central Time,
at the Diamond Room on the second floor of the Dallas Parkway Hilton, 4801 LBJ
Freeway, Dallas, Texas 75244, and at any adjournment or postponement thereof
(the "Meeting"). This Proxy Statement and the enclosed form of proxy are first
being mailed to Limited Partners on or about August 9, 1996. The principal
executive offices of the Partnership are located at 13760 Noel Road, Suite 700,
Dallas, Texas 75240, and the telephone number at that location is (214) 448-
5800.
Capitalized terms used in this Proxy Statement which are not otherwise
defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Partnership
Agreement of the Partnership dated as of September 12, 1974, as amended and
restated as of January 31, 1975, as amended by the Amendment to Amended and
Restated Partnership Agreement dated as of March 26, 1992 (the "Partnership
Agreement").
MATTERS TO BE CONSIDERED AT MEETING
At the Meeting, Limited Partners will be asked to vote on two proposals
(the "Proposals") which will involve the following, as more fully described in
this Proxy Statement: (i) to authorize the General Partner to sell (the
"Proposed Sale") the Sycamore Valley Apartments located in Fountain Valley,
California (the "Property"), which Property constitutes substantially all of the
assets of the Partnership, to BRE Properties, Inc. ("BRE") on the terms set
forth herein; and (ii) if the Proposed Sale of the Property is consummated, to
approve the dissolution and termination of the Partnership and to authorize the
General Partner to liquidate the Partnership.
THE EFFECTIVENESS OF EACH OF PROPOSAL (I) AND PROPOSAL (II) IS CONTINGENT
ON THE APPROVAL OF BOTH PROPOSAL (I) AND PROPOSAL (II). UNLESS PROPOSAL (I) AND
PROPOSAL (II) ARE APPROVED BY THE LIMITED PARTNERS AT THE MEETING, NEITHER
PROPOSAL WILL BE EFFECTED BY THE GENERAL PARTNER. THE APPROVAL OF THE PROPOSALS
REQUIRES THE AFFIRMATIVE VOTE OF THE LIMITED PARTNERS WHO ARE THE HOLDERS OF A
MAJORITY OF THE UNITS AND WHO ARE ENTITLED TO VOTE ON THE PROPOSALS. THEREFORE,
THE FAILURE TO VOTE IS THE EQUIVALENT OF A VOTE AGAINST APPROVAL.
Representatives of the Partnership's principal accountants Arthur Andersen
LLP are expected to be present at the Meeting and are expected to be available
to respond to appropriate questions of the Limited Partners.
Matters incidental to the conduct of the Meeting which are properly brought
before the Meeting, including consideration of any adjournment or postponement
thereof, may also be voted upon at the Meeting.
<PAGE>
The General Partner does not intend to bring any matters before the Meeting
other than those set forth in the Notice of Meeting and does not know of any
matters to be brought before the Meeting by others. If any matter should come
before the Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying
proxy to vote the units of limited partnership interest ("Units") represented by
the proxy in accordance with the judgment of the General Partner.
THE TRANSFER OF THE PARTNERSHIP'S PROPERTY MAY HAVE POTENTIALLY SUBSTANTIAL
TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THE LIMITED PARTNERS. SEE "FEDERAL INCOME TAX
CONSEQUENCES." LIMITED PARTNERS ARE STRONGLY URGED TO OBTAIN INDEPENDENT TAX
ADVICE IN CONNECTION WITH THEIR DECISION ON HOW TO VOTE AND TO READ THE "FEDERAL
INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES" SECTION OF THIS PROXY STATEMENT CLOSELY.
SUMMARY
The General Partner recommends that the Limited Partners vote in favor of
the Proposals because they are in the best interests of the Limited Partners.
The General Partner believes that the Proposed Sale and the subsequent
dissolution, liquidation and termination of the Partnership are in the best
interests of the Limited Partners. The Property is the only remaining property
of the Partnership. In October 1995, the General Partner received an offer from
BRE to purchase the Property, which resulted in the negotiation and execution of
a purchase agreement relating thereto. Pursuant to this agreement, as amended,
the Partnership agreed to sell the Property to BRE for $23,085,000 cash, subject
to certain downward adjustments as set forth in such agreement, if certain
conditions are met, including obtaining the requisite approval of the Limited
Partners. The General Partner believes that at this time the $23,085,000
purchase price fairly reflects the value of the Property, as more particularly
described below. See "Proposal No. 1 -- Background and Reasons for the Proposed
Sale."
The Proposed Sale, if consummated, will result in the disposition of
substantially all of the assets of the Partnership. After the distribution of
sales proceeds and the final accounting and administration, the General Partner
will liquidate and terminate the Partnership. The General Partner estimates
that following the consummation of the Proposed Sale and the payment of the
debts and liabilities of the Partnership, including the payment of an aggregate
of approximately $1.4 million in fees to the General Partner, the Partnership
estimates that it will have approximately $11.9 million, or $643.07 per Unit,
available for distribution to the Limited Partners. However, due to ongoing
litigation and certain contractual indemnification obligations of the
Partnership pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (defined below), the precise
timing and amount of distributions to the Limited Partners has not yet been
determined. See "Proposal No. 2" below. In addition, on or about September 1,
1996, the General Partner intends to make a distribution of $570,000, or
approximately $31.28 per Unit, to Limited Partners of record as of August 1,
1996.

PROPOSAL NO. 1
THE PURCHASE AGREEMENT
General
The Partnership has entered into a Purchase Agreement, dated January 23,
1996, as amended by the First Amendment to Purchase Agreement dated as of May
14, 1996 (the "Purchase Agreement"), with BRE, which is unaffiliated with the
Partnership or the General Partner. The Purchase Agreement was arrived at after
extensive arms length negotiation. The address of BRE is One Montgomery Street,
Suite 2500, San Francisco, California 94104. BRE is a publicly held real estate
investment trust.
The Purchase Agreement provides for the sale to BRE of all of the
Partnership's right, title and interest in the Property, the buildings and
improvements thereon, certain personal property, rental agreements and service
agreements relating to the Property, and all marks, names and trade names used
in connection with the Property. The Property comprises substantially all of
the assets of the Partnership. BRE will not assume any of the Partnership's
liabilities except only those arising after the Proposed Sale under ongoing
rental agreements and service agreements and those relating to pro-rated taxes
which BRE has agreed to pay pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.
Purchase Price
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Partnership will sell the Property
to BRE for $23,085,000; provided that the Partnership and BRE may adjust the
purchase price to reflect reasonable repairs and related expenses prior to
Closing (as defined below). BRE has already paid $200,000 as earnest money, and
the balance of the purchase price will be paid in cash at Closing. The Purchase
Agreement also provides that a brokerage commission of one percent of the
purchase price ($230,850) will be payable by BRE to Joel Berlinsky and Reid
Bogert, neither of whom is affiliated with the Partnership or the General
Partner.
Inspection
BRE has completed an inspection of the Property and of certain documents
and certain other materials provided by the Partnership.
Representations and Warranties
Partnership Representations and Warranties. Except to the extent expressly
stated in the Purchase Agreement, the Partnership will sell the Property to BRE
pursuant to the Purchase Agreement on an "AS IS, WHERE IS" basis, with all
faults, and without warranty or representation, express or implied, as to
merchantability or fitness for any particular use or purpose. In the Purchase
Agreement, the Partnership made representations and warranties to BRE customary
for a transaction similar to that of the Proposed Sale, including
representations and warranties as to the following matters: (i) authority and
due execution of the Purchase Agreement; (ii) title to the Property, free and
clear of liens; (iii) utilities for the use of the Property; and (iv) full
disclosure of material facts relating to the Property. In addition, the
Partnership made representations and warranties, to the best of the
Partnership's current actual knowledge, to BRE as to the following matters: (i)
compliance with law; (ii) no condemnation proceedings; (iii) no litigation that
affects the Property; (iv) no bankruptcy or receivership; (v) material
contracts; and (vi) leasing commissions. Finally, the Partnership made the
following representations and warranties, to the best of the Partnership's
current actual knowledge, to BRE as to the following environmental matters: (i)
the Partnership has not received any written notices regarding hazardous
materials on, under or affecting the Property or requiring the removal of any
hazardous materials from the Property; (ii) no property within two thousand feet
of the Property has been the site of a significant disposal of hazardous
materials or has been designated a hazardous waste or border zone property,
except as disclosed to BRE in the Purchase Agreement; (iii) there are and have
been no hazardous materials installed, exposed or stored in or otherwise
existing at, on, in or under the Property except as disclosed to BRE in the
Purchase Agreement.

<PAGE>
BRE Representations and Warranties. BRE made representations and warranties
to the Partnership as to the following matters: (i) authority and due execution
of the Purchase Agreement; (ii) due organization; and (iii) no bankruptcy or
receivership.
Indemnification
The Partnership and BRE agreed to indemnify each other and hold each other
harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, costs and
damages, including without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, resulting
from any misrepresentations or breach of warranty or covenant made by such party
in the Purchase Agreement or in any document, certificate, or exhibit given or
delivered to the other party pursuant to or in connection with the Purchase
Agreement. The Partnership further agreed to indemnify BRE and hold BRE
harmless from and against any claims, demands, liabilities, costs and damages
asserted against or suffered by BRE and resulting from or arising out of the
ownership, use or construction of the Property prior to the conveyance of the
Property to BRE, including, without limitation, claims arising from the
presence, prior to Closing, of any hazardous materials on the Property and
reimbursement of cleanup or remedial action costs under any law or regulation
regarding the generation, use, storage, or disposal of such hazardous materials.
The Partnership's liability for such indemnification is limited to an
aggregate sum of $250,000. Moreover, the Partnership's indemnification will
expire December 31, 1996 unless and only to the extent that before such date BRE
has given the Partnership written notice of any such claim, demand, liability,
costs or damages covered by the Partnership's indemnification.
Concurrently with the Partnership's purchase of the land underlying the
Property from BRE, BRE and the Partnership entered into an Environmental Release
and Indemnity Agreement dated December 29, 1992, whereby the Partnership agreed
to indemnify BRE for certain environmental claims caused by or at the direction
of Robert McNeil and certain related parties and whereby BRE agreed to indemnify
Mr. McNeil and certain related parties for certain environmental claims caused
by or at the direction of BRE and certain related parties. Pursuant to the
Purchase Agreement, BRE agreed that the Partnership shall have no liability
under said agreement for any environmental contamination occurring on or after
Closing of the Purchase Agreement.
Conditions
The obligations of the parties to consummate the Proposed Sale are subject
to the fulfillment of certain conditions on or before the date of Closing. The
conditions to the Partnership's obligations to consummate the Proposed Sale
include the affirmative vote, pursuant to this Proxy Statement, in favor of the
Proposed Sale of the Limited Partners holding a majority of the Limited Partner
interests.
No approval of any federal or state regulatory agency is required in
connection with the Proposed Sale.
Closing and Closing Expenses; Termination Fee
If the Partnership satisfies or BRE waives the conditions in the Purchase
Agreement, the consummation of the Proposed Sale (the "Closing") will take place
pursuant to the Purchase Agreement within five (5) business days of the
Partnership's written notice to BRE that the Limited Partners have approved the
Proposed Sale. If the Limited Partners have not approved the Proposed Sale by
September 30, 1996, BRE may terminate the Purchase Agreement, require the
Partnership to refund the earnest money deposit and require the Partnership to
pay BRE one-half of its due diligence costs and legal fees, up to a maximum of
$25,000. Further, if (i) the Partnership receives a competing offer for the
sale of the Property, (ii) the Limited Partners do not approve the sale of the
Property pursuant to this Proxy Statement, (iii) the Partnership enters into a
contract before March 1, 1997 with a purchaser whose offer was received by the
Partnership before the Limited Partners' disapproval of the sale of the Property
to BRE, and (iv) the Partnership thereafter receives proceeds for the sale of
the Property in excess of those under the Purchase Agreement, then the
Partnership must pay BRE a termination fee of $500,000.

<PAGE>
The Partnership will be responsible for its share of Closing expenses.
These expenses include the Partnership's share of the premium for the title
policy, one-half of the escrow fees, Closing costs and all expenses incurred by
the Partnership in connection with the review, negotiation, preparation and
consummation of the Proposed Sale, including costs associated with the
preparation of this Proxy Statement and the solicitation of proxies. BRE will be
responsible for its share of Closing expenses. These expenses include BRE's
share of the premium for the title policy, the recordation fees, one-half of the
escrow fees and Closing costs.
EXISTING DEBT
The Property is subject to a lien securing a loan payable to World Savings
and Loan Association, which had a principal balance as of May 25, 1996 of
approximately $11.3 million (the "Existing Debt"). At Closing, the Partnership
will repay all sums due on Existing Debt and any accrued interest thereon. See
"Proposal No. 2 -- Sources and Uses of Proceeds from Proposed Sale."
BACKGROUND AND REASONS FOR THE PROPOSED SALE
General
The Partnership was formed in 1974 to engage in the business of owning,
operating and managing residential real estate. The original principal
objectives of the Partnership were to provide capital appreciation and tax-
deferred income to its partners. The Partnership originally acquired the
buildings and improvements on the Property in 1975 for a purchase price of
approximately $6.4 million. Since then, the Partnership has expended
approximately $2.8 million for capital improvements on the Property. In
December 1992, the Partnership exercised its option to acquire the land
underlying the Property from BRE for a purchase price of approximately $11
million. On March 28, 1994, McNeil announced that he had suspended discussions,
originally announced October 29, 1993, regarding obtaining financing for the
possible cash acquisition by McNeil of all or a portion of the limited
partnership interests in 17 publicly-held real estate partnerships for which the
General Partner serves as general partner, including the Partnership. Based on
the reasons discussed below, the General Partner has concluded that the Proposed
Sale of the Property is in the best interests of the Partnership and the Limited
Partners. As discussed below, the General Partner has examined alternatives to
the Proposed Sale, including the continued operation of the Property.
Icahn Tender Offer
In August 1995, High River Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited
partnership controlled by Carl C. Icahn ("High River") made an unsolicited
tender offer (the "HR Offer") to purchase from Holders of Units up to
approximately 45% of the outstanding Units of the Partnership for a purchase
price of $400 per Unit. In addition, High River made unsolicited tender offers
for certain other partnerships controlled by the General Partner. The
Partnership recommended that the Limited Partners reject the HR Offer made with
respect to the Partnership and not tender their Units pursuant to the HR Offer.
The HR Offer terminated, after numerous extensions, on October 6, 1995. The
General Partner believes that as of January 1, 1996, High River has purchased
approximately 2% of the outstanding Units pursuant to the HR Offer. In
addition, all litigation filed by High River, Mr. Icahn and his affiliates in
connection with the HR Offer has been dismissed without prejudice.
The Partnership reached the conclusion to recommend rejection of the HR
Offer after considering a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the
following: (i) the price per Unit offered by High River did not adequately
reflect the value inherent in the Units; (ii) the General Partner was
contemplating tender offers for the Units at a higher price than the offer made
by High River; (iii) Mr. Icahn's intentions were to take control of the
Partnership; and (iv) Mr. Icahn's suitability and intentions could not be fully
evaluated by the General Partner. Although the General Partner contemplated
making tender offers for the Units at a higher price than the High River offer,
the General Partner has not made any tender offers for the Units and is not
presently considering making a tender offer for the Units.

<PAGE>
Negotiations with Mr. Icahn
Following the commencement of the HR Offer and certain litigation relating
thereto, the General Partner and Mr. Icahn engaged in negotiations and
discussions regarding possible transactions between the parties and their
affiliates, which transactions, if consummated, would have resulted in Mr. Icahn
gaining control of the General Partner, and, in turn, the Partnership. After
numerous discussions and extensions of the HR Offer, the General Partner and Mr.
Icahn terminated discussions on September 19, 1995 due to an inability to reach
any resolution on the terms of the proposed transaction.
Other Negotiations
After the announcement of the HR Offer, the Partnership, and certain other
related partnerships, received from a number of parties inquiries regarding
possible alternative transactions involving the Partnership and certain other
related partnerships. In addition, following the commencement of the HR Offer,
the Partnership's management actively considered various possible alternatives
to the HR Offer, including (i) a tender offer for or other acquisition of Units
of the Partnership or (ii) distributions in respect of the Units of the
Partnership. The General Partner engaged in discussions with other parties
which were considering joining with the General Partner or its affiliates in
making tender offers for less than all of the Units at prices per Unit in excess
of the respective prices offered by High River. These inquiries did not result
in any agreement on a transaction regarding the Partnership or any related
partnership. The persons making such inquiries did not express an interest in
acquiring limited partnership interests in only the Units and were principally
interested in acquiring numerous related partnerships, including the
Partnership, in connection with acquiring control of the general partner of
such partnerships and certain of its affiliates.
Following termination of the discussions with Mr. Icahn and other parties,
the General Partner determined to continue to explore potential avenues to
enhance the value of the Limited Partners' Units in the Partnership, which
included asset sales and refinancings of the Partnership's Property followed by
distributions or tender offers for Units of the Partnership. The General
Partner did not, however, solicit any offers for the sale of the Property or,
prior to receipt of the offer from BRE, take any other steps to implement such
potential avenues.
Offer from BRE
In October 1995, the Partnership received a letter from Mr. Joel Berlinsky,
on behalf of BRE, regarding an unsolicited offer to purchase the Property. As
mentioned above, BRE owned the land underlying the Property prior to the
Partnership's purchase of such land in 1992. On October 30, 1995, the
Partnership and BRE executed a Confidentiality Agreement. During November and
December, the Partnership and BRE negotiated the sale price for the Proposed
Sale. On December 22, 1995, the Partnership and BRE executed a Letter of Intent
and commenced preparation and negotiation of the Purchase Agreement. The
Partnership and BRE executed the Purchase Agreement on February 5, 1996.
On or about April 13, 1996, the parties began negotiating an amendment to
the Purchase Agreement to, among other things, extend the April 15 termination
date. The Partnership and BRE entered into the First Amendment to Purchase
Agreement as of May 14, 1996. This amendment (i) extended the date on which BRE
could terminate the Purchase Agreement from April 15, 1996 to August 15, 1996,
(ii) reduced the purchase price from $23,300,000 to $23,085,000 as a result of
negotiations concerning the payment of certain repairs of and improvements to
the Property, (iii) added a termination fee of $500,000 as described above under
"The Purchase Agreement -- Closing and Closing Expenses," and (iv) clarified
that the Partnership's obligation to close is subject to the Limited Partners'
approval of both the Proposed Sale and the dissolution and termination of the
Partnership.
On or about August 7, 1996, the parties entered into an amendment to the
Purchase Agreement to extend the date on which BRE could terminate the Purchase
Agreement from August 15, 1996 to September 30, 1996.

<PAGE>
The General Partner believes that the $23,085,000 purchase price in the
Purchase Agreement fairly reflects the value of the Property and that the
Proposed Sale is in the best interest of the Limited Partners. In making this
determination, the General Partner took into account the recent estimates of
values of the Units it undertook following the commencement of the HR Offer as
described below.
In response to the commencement of the HR Offer, the General Partner
prepared an estimate of the Partnership's net asset value per Unit for 1994 and
set forth such information in Amendment No. 6 to Schedule 14D-9 dated September
29, 1995. The estimate did not purport to be an estimate of fair market value of
the Units and did not purport to reflect the amounts the Limited Partners might
actually receive upon a liquidation of the Partnership because they did not take
into account transactional costs incurred on a sale of the Partnership's
Property or costs associated with winding up the Partnership. The estimate was
based on the General Partner's own estimates of the value of the Partnership's
Property and not on the basis of third party appraisals. The General Partner
derived its estimate of the value of the Partnership's Property from
capitalizing the net operating income derived from the Partnership's Property.
In estimating the aggregate value of the Partnership Property for 1994, the
General Partner first calculated the net operating income for that year. Then
the General Partner capitalized the net operating income amount at a 10% rate,
which the General Partner believes represents an appropriate capitalization rate
for apartment properties. The value of the Property was not adjusted for any
specific market conditions. The 1994 net asset value estimate per Unit of the
Partnership determined as set forth above was $584.77. The 1994 aggregate value
estimate for the Partnership's Property was $20,420,580.
In addition, the General Partner made a pro forma calculation of the amount
each Limited Partner might receive in a theoretical orderly liquidation based on
the 1994 aggregate value estimate set forth above, other financial information
available to the General Partner and certain other considerations. Based on the
Partnership's first eight months of 1995 and employing the same method of
estimating the aggregate value of the Partnership's Property as the General
Partner used in calculating the 1994 aggregate value estimate, the General
Partner estimated the 1995 aggregate value estimate of the Partnership's
Property was $21,609,390. Then, the General Partner made certain adjustments to
complete its estimate of the amount of the theoretical liquidation proceeds that
would be distributable per Unit. Specifically, the General Partner added the
amounts of cash, escrows and other investments shown on the Partnership's
unaudited balance sheet at June 30, 1995. The General Partner did not deduct
any amounts in respect of the legal and other costs which the General Partner
expects would be incurred in a liquidation, including costs of negotiating
purchase and sale contracts, possibly conducting a consent solicitation in order
to obtain the Limited Partners' approval for the sale, and winding up the
Partnership because of the difficulty of estimating those amounts. The estimated
pro forma liquidation value per Unit of the Partnership was $667.30.
The General Partner did not update the valuation to 1995 because the 1994
valuation was prepared solely in connection with the tender offer by High River
and not as part of the General Partner's regular business.
The General Partner did not receive a fairness opinion regarding the
consideration to be received in connection with the Proposed Sale. The General
Partner did not believe that it was necessary to acquire a fairness opinion from
a financial advisor in connection with the Proposed Sale because the General
Partner is engaged in the business of buying, selling, and managing real estate,
including apartment buildings. Due to the General Partner's experience in
evaluating offers to purchase real estate, the General Partner did not believe
that it was in the best interests of the Limited Partners to incur substantial
fees for a fairness opinion.
Recent Icahn Announcement Regarding Potential Tender Offer and Litigation
On August 5, 1996, High River and certain of Mr. Icahn's affiliates filed
documents with the Securities and Exchange Commission disclosing that High River
had entered into a letter agreement dated August 2, 1996 with the attorneys for
the plaintiffs in the case styled James F. Schofield, et. al. v. McNeil
Partners, L.P., et. al. described below under "Business -- Legal Proceedings."
Pursuant to this letter agreement, High River agreed to commence, within six
months, a tender offer for any and all units of the Partnership and the nine
other partnerships that were previously subject to the High River tender offer
described above under "Background and Reasons for Proposed Sale -- Icahn Tender
Offer." The letter agreement provides that the tender offer would be at a price
that would not be less
7
<PAGE>
than 75% of the estimated liquidation value of the Units (determined by
utilizing the same methodology that was used to determine the liquidation values
in High River's previous tender offer for the Partnership), and the tender offer
could be subject to other terms and conditions as High River determines in its
sole discretion. In addition, High River agreed that if it became the general
partner of the Partnership, it would comply with additional terms that were the
subject of a letter proposal previously sent to attorneys for the General
Partner as set forth under "Business -- Legal Proceedings." Set forth below is
the full text of the letter agreement:

Re: Schofield, et al. v.
McNeil Partners, L.P., et al.
BC 133799 (Sup. Ct. of Calif.)
Dear Mr. Mattner
This letter will memorialize the agreement between counsel for the
plaintiffs in the referenced class action and derivative action (the
"Litigation") and High River Limited Partnership ("High River") regarding the
settlement of the Litigation. Any settlement contemplated herein is subject to
various conditions, including the execution of a stipulation of settlement,
approval by the appropriate court, and notice to the limited partners of the
partnerships named as nominal defendants in the Litigation which are listed on
Exhibit "A" hereto (the "Partnerships").
In order to induce High River to commence tender offers for any and all
outstanding Units of the Partnerships pursuant to the terms set forth below (the
"Tender Offers") and provide the additional consideration set forth below in the
event that High River attains the position of general partner of the
Partnerships -- whether through a vote of limited partners or the acquisition of
the entities that currently own the general partnership interests (the "Current
General Partners"), Plaintiffs' counsel would agree to settle all of the claims
asserted in the Litigation against the General Partner upon the following terms:
1. High River will commence, as soon as possible, but in no event more
than six (6) months, the Tender Offers for any and all of the outstanding units
of the Partnerships at a price that is not less than 75% of the estimated
liquidation value of the Units. The Tender Offers may be subject to such other
terms and conditions as High River determines in its sole discretion. For the
purposes of this agreement, "liquidation value" means a current liquidation
value determined by utilizing the same methodology that was used to determine
the liquidation values in High River's previous tender offers for Units of
several of the Partnerships;
2. High River agreed that, in the event High River attains the position of
general partner in any of the Partnerships, it will take all actions necessary
to cause a 25% reduction of all fees, including the current management incentive
distribution ("MID") fee, that are, or could be deemed to be, payable by such
Partnership(s) to the General Partner and/or its affiliates under the current
Amended and Restated Partnership Agreement(s) for such Partnership(s); and
3. High River agrees that, in the event that it becomes the General
Partner in any of the Partnerships, it will not cause such Partnership(s) to
take any action to discontinue the Litigation with respect to the Receivable
Claims. For purposes of this agreement, the "Receivable Claims" means those
claims asserted against the Current General Partner which seek the Partnerships'
receipt of all monies to which the Current General Partner claims it is owed by
the Partnerships and monies previously paid by the Partnerships to the Current
General Partner and its affiliates for fees they claimed were owed under the
current Partnership Agreements.
Plaintiffs agree that from the date of this letter agreement forward they
will not enter into any settlement of the claims asserted in the litigation
against the Current General Partner and its
8
<PAGE>
affiliates, including the Receivable Claims that does not provide for all of the
consideration contained in the attached demand letter sent to the Current
General Partner.
In the event that High River attains the position of general partner in any
of the Partnerships, the parties hereto will in good faith execute an
appropriate Stipulation of Settlement based on the terms of this agreement.
Such Stipulation shall not, in any event, purport to settle or provide a release
of the Receivable Claims. In addition, the parties will in good faith execute
any such other documentation as may be required to obtain Court approval of the
Settlement.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the
undersigned.
Very Truly yours,

Summary
As of the date of this Proxy Statement, the General Partner has not
solicited any offers for the sale of the Property, and the General Partner has
not received an offer for the Property which the General Partner perceives is as
favorable as that received from BRE. The purchase price to be paid by BRE
exceeds the value of the Property as estimated by the General Partner as
described above. If the Proposed Sale is not consummated, there can be no
assurance that the Partnership will receive additional offers with terms similar
to those in the Purchase Agreement. In addition, the General Partner believes
that the Proposed Sale is more favorable to the Limited Partners than any
partial tender offer for the Units that was contemplated by the General Partner
based on the favorable price for the Property to be received by the Partnership
and because, upon liquidation of the Partnership following the Proposed Sale,
the Limited Partners will be able to liquidate their entire investment in the
Partnership. Finally, the General Partner believes that the Proposed Sale is
more favorable to the Limited Partners than the potential tender offer of High
River described above because (i) such potential High River tender offer may not
offer the Limited Partners the full liquidation value of the Units, and (ii)
there is no assurance that any tender offer by High River will ever be
commenced, and if commenced, there is no assurance that any tender offer by High
River will ever be consummated.

INTEREST OF CERTAIN PERSONS IN MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON
In connection with the consummation of the Proposed Sale and subsequent
liquidation and termination of the Partnership, the General Partner estimates
that it will receive (i) approximately $40,199 for the payment of the
Partnership Management Fee (defined below), (ii) approximately $163,070 for the
payment of the Agent Fee (defined below) and (iii) approximately $1,153,263 for
the payment of the Subordinated Incentive Fee (defined below). Pursuant to the
Partnership Agreement, the Partnership Management Fee, the Agent Fee and the
Subordinated Incentive Fee must be paid prior to any distributions to the
Limited Partners. See "Proposal No. 2 -- Liquidation under the Partnership
Agreement."
The Partnership Management Fee (the "Partnership Management Fee") is
payable to the General Partner pursuant to Section 9.4.2 of the Partnership
Agreement as compensation for its services rendered in evaluating and selecting
the Property for the Partnership, making decisions as to the nature and terms of
the acquisition and disposition of the Property, selecting, retaining and
supervising consultants, contractors, architects, engineers, lenders, borrowers,
agents and others, and otherwise generally managing the day-to-day operations of
the Partnership. The Partnership Management Fee is an amount equal to five
percent of the Cash From Operations and is payable only when distributions,
including distributions other than those in connection with the Proposed Sale,
are made to the Limited Partners. Based upon the information set forth below
under "Proposal No. 2 --Sources and Uses of Funds from the Proposed Sale and
Liquidation" and "Proposal No. 2 -- Estimated Distributions to Limited
Partners," the General Partner has estimated that the Partnership Management Fee
will be approximately $40,199.
The Agent Fee (the "Agent Fee") is payable to the General Partner pursuant
to Section 9.5.2 of the Partnership Agreement, for real estate brokerage
services in connection with the disposition of the Property. The amount of the
Agent Fee is the lesser of (i) the normal and competitive rate for similar
services in the locality where the services are performed; (ii) 50% of the
standard commission;
10
<PAGE>
or (iii) one-half of the total Acquisition Fees which could have been paid to
the General Partner under Section 9.2 of the Partnership Agreement. The Agent
Fee is payable upon the consummation of the Proposed Sale. The General Partner
has determined that the Agent Fee will be approximately $163,070 based upon
(iii) described above.
The Subordinated Incentive Fee (the "Subordinated Incentive Fee") is
payable to the General Partner pursuant to Section 9.5.1 of the Partnership
Agreement as additional compensation for the services rendered in evaluating and
selecting the Property for the Partnership, making decisions as to the nature
and terms of the acquisition and disposition of the Property, selecting,
retaining and supervising consultants, contractors, architects, engineers,
lenders, borrowers, agents and others, and otherwise generally managing the day-
to-day operations of the Partnership. The Subordinated Incentive Fee is an
amount equal to 10% of the Remaining Cash From Sales or Refinancing in excess of
the Cost of All Partnership Properties and will be paid when such Cash From
Sales or Refinancings is distributed. Based upon the information set forth below
under "Proposal No. 2 -- Sources and Uses of Funds from the Proposed Sale and
Liquidation" and "Proposal No. 2 -- Estimated Distributions to Limited
Partners," the General Partner has estimated that the Subordinated Incentive Fee
will be approximately $1,153,263.
The Partnership pays the General Partner the Partnership Management Fee on
an ongoing basis. For the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1995, the General
Partner received $30,000 and $40,000, respectively, in payment of the
Partnership Management Fee. In addition, for the three month period ended March
31, 1996, the General Partner received a Partnership Management Fee of $25,000
in connection with a distribution to Limited Partners. The General Partner will
receive a Partnership Management Fee of $30,000 in connection with the proposed
distribution to Limited Partners intended to be made on or about September 1,
1996. See "Market for the Units of Partnership and Related Security Holder
Matters."
The Partnership also currently pays property management fees equal to 5% of
the gross rental receipts of the Property to an affiliate of the General Partner
for providing property management and leasing services. The Partnership paid an
aggregate of $193,415 and $200,509, respectively, for the years ended December
31, 1994 and 1995 in payment of such property management fees. In addition, the
Partnership paid $51,466 for property management fees for the three month period
ended March 31, 1996.
RECOMMENDATION OF GENERAL PARTNER
The General Partner recommends that the Limited Partners vote in favor of
Proposal No. 1 because it is believed to be in the best interests of the Limited
Partners. The General Partner has explored potential avenues to enhance the
value of the Limited Partners' Units in the Partnership. In addition, the
General Partner has, in connection with the tender offer of High River,
undertaken a detailed valuation of the Property held by the Partnership as well
as the value of the Units themselves. The General Partner did not update this
valuation for 1995 because the 1994 valuation was prepared solely in connection
with the tender offer by High River and not as part of the General Partner's
regular business. Based on the General Partner's valuations and efforts to
enhance the value of the Partnership, the General Partner believes that it can
fairly evaluate the Proposed Sale. The General Partner believes that the
purchase price for the sale of the Property is an attractive price and the
Proposed Sale at this price is in the best interests of the Limited Partners.
In addition, the General Partner believes that the Proposed Sale is more
favorable to the Limited Partners than any partial tender offer for the Units
that was contemplated by the General Partner based on the favorable price for
the Property to be received by the Partnership and because, upon liquidation of
the Partnership following the Proposed Sale, the Limited Partners will be able
to liquidate their entire investment in the Partnership. Finally, the General
Partner believes that the Proposed Sale is more favorable to the Limited
Partners than the potential tender offer of High River described above because
(i) such potential High River tender offer may not offer the Limited Partners
the full liquidation value of the Units, and (ii) there is no assurance that any
tender offer by High River will ever be commenced, and if commenced, there is no
assurance that any tender offer by High River will ever be consummated.

<PAGE>
PROPOSAL NO. 2
INTRODUCTION
If the Proposals are approved and the Proposed Sale is consummated, the
Partnership will be dissolved, and the General Partner intends to liquidate and
terminate the affairs of the Partnership in accordance with the provisions of
the Partnership Agreement and California law, which governs the Partnership.
LIQUIDATION UNDER THE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT
Pursuant to Paragraph 19.2 of the Partnership Agreement, in the event
of dissolution the General Partner shall take full account of the Partnership
assets and liabilities, shall liquidate the assets as promptly as is consistent
with obtaining the fair value thereof and terminate the Partnership.
Pursuant to Paragraph 19.2 of the Partnership Agreement, upon
liquidating the Partnership, the General Partner will first pay all creditors of
the Partnership other than secured creditors whose obligations will be assumed
or otherwise transferred on the liquidation of the Partnership's assets. If
there were any outstanding loans made by the General Partner to the Partnership,
then the General Partner would repay such loans. As of the date hereof, there
were no such loans outstanding. Only after these distributions are made may the
General Partner make distributions to the Limited Partners and the General
Partner in accordance with Paragraph 11.5 of the Partnership Agreement.
Pursuant to Paragraph 11.5 of the Partnership Agreement, the General
Partner will distribute the remaining funds as follows: (i) to the General
Partner, the Agent Fee; (ii) to the General Partner, the Subordinated Incentive
Fee; and (iii) to the Limited Partners, the remaining funds, if any. In
addition, in connection with the distributions to the Limited Partners, the
General Partner will be paid the Partnership Management Fee.
If the Proposed Sale is consummated, the General Partner currently
intends to commence liquidation of the Partnership. However, the General
Partner has not yet determined the precise timing of distributions to the
Limited Partners that would occur after the consummation of the Proposed Sale
and in connection with the liquidation of the Partnership because (i) the
Partnership is involved in certain litigation described below under "Business --
Legal Proceedings" and (ii) the Partnership intends to retain $250,000 until
December 31, 1996 to cover its potential indemnification obligations under the
Purchase Agreement. See "Proposal No. 1 -- The Purchase Agreement --
Indemnification Obligations." The Partnership believes that such litigation is
without merit and intends to vigorously defend such litigation. The actual
amount of such distributions will depend upon the Partnership's costs, expenses
and potential losses in connection with such litigation and such contractual
indemnification obligations. Accordingly, there can be no assurance as to the
precise timing or amount of distributions to the Limited Partners.
SOURCES AND USES OF PROCEEDS FROM THE PROPOSED SALE AND LIQUIDATION
If the Limited Partners approve the Proposed Sale, and if the Closing
occurs based on a cash purchase price of $23,085,000, the General Partner
estimates that the Partnership will apply the cash payment and its existing cash
balances as follows:

from ongoing litigation and (ii) $250,000 is to cover indemnification
obligations under the Purchase Agreement. There can be no assurance that funds
withheld will be distributed to Limited Partners due to the uncertainties
inherent in the actual amount which may be expended by the Partnership in
connection with such litigation and indemnification obligations.

ESTIMATED DISTRIBUTIONS TO LIMITED PARTNERS
Set forth below is a table showing the aggregate distributions to Limited
Partners to date, and the estimated distributions to Limited Partners and the
estimated cash benefit to Limited Partners if the Proposed Sale is consummated:

</TABLE>
*Based on an estimated tax gain per Unit of $447.75, and an assumed tax
rate of 28%, the estimated tax cost to such Limited Partners per Unit will be
$125.37. The actual tax cost to a Limited Partner, however, will depend upon the
marginal tax rate of that Limited Partner and may be more than or less than this
amount. The above estimates are based solely on current year operations and the
tax gain to be recognized by the Partnership as a result of the Proposed Sale
and do not consider the possibility that a Limited Partner may recognize a tax
loss (or tax gain) on the liquidation of the Partnership. See "Federal Income
Tax Consequences" for additional information on the federal income tax
consequences of the Proposed Sale and distributions.
**Actual distributions will be subject to withholding. See "Federal Income
Tax Consequences -- Withholding under California Law."
The estimated distributions, tax gain and cash impact set forth above are
based on the following assumptions: (i) the sources and uses of funds set forth
above will accurately reflect the actual expenses in connection with the
Proposed Sale and liquidation; (ii) $200,000 will be expended by the Partnership
to cover legal fees, costs, expenses and losses in connection with the
litigation described in "Business -- Legal Proceedings"; and (iii) the
Partnership will not be required to expend any amount to satisfy indemnities
pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (which amount is limited to $250,000) and
therefore will have such funds available for distribution. See "Proposal No. 2
- -- Sources and Uses of Funds from the Proposed Sale and Liquidation."
Although the General Partner will not receive any distributions from the
Partnership in connection with the Proposed Sale or the liquidation of the
Partnership, the General Partner will receive certain fees. See "Proposal No. 1
- -- Interest of Certain Persons in Matters To Be Acted Upon."
Although the General Partner currently anticipates making distributions to
the Limited Partners set forth above if the Proposed Sale is consummated, the
precise timing and actual amount of such distributions has not been determined
and the amount of such distributions may be subject to change due to ongoing
litigation and indemnification obligations of the Partnership. See "Proposal
No. 2 -- Liquidation under the Partnership Agreement."
RECOMMENDATION OF THE GENERAL PARTNER
The General Partner recommends that the Limited Partners vote in favor of
Proposal No. 2 because it is believed to be in the best interests of the Limited
Partners. The Partnership was formed to acquire, operate and ultimately dispose
of a portfolio of income-producing real properties. The Property is the only
remaining property of the Partnership. Once the Property is sold, the
Partnership
14
<PAGE>
will own no operating assets and it will no longer have a portfolio of real
property. The General Partner has determined that because the purpose of the
Partnership will have been fulfilled upon the consummation of the sale of the
Property, it is in the best interests of the Limited Partners to liquidate any
remaining assets and, at a future date determined appropriate by the General
Partner, make final distributions to the Limited Partners.
BUSINESS
ORGANIZATION
The Partnership was organized September 12, 1974, as a limited partnership
under the provisions of the California Uniform Limited Partnership Act. The
General Partner of the Partnership, an affiliate of Robert A. McNeil ("McNeil"),
was elected at a meeting of limited partners on March 26, 1992. Prior to March
26, 1992, Pacific Investors Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Southmark
Corporation ("Southmark"), and McNeil were the general partners of the
Partnership which was governed by an agreement of limited partnership dated
September 12, 1974. The principal place of business for the Partnership and the
General Partner is 13760 Noel Road, Suite 700, LB70, Dallas, Texas 75240.
McNeil and Pacific Investors Corporation are collectively referred to herein as
the "Original General Partners."
CURRENT OPERATIONS
General
The Partnership is engaged in real estate activities, including the
ownership, operation and management of residential real estate and other real
estate related assets. The Property is currently the only piece of real estate
owned by the Partnership.
The Partnership does not directly employ any personnel. The General Partner
conducts the business of the Partnership directly and through its affiliates.
Pursuant to the original partnership agreement, the Partnership reimbursed
affiliates of the Original General Partners for such services rendered. Since
February 14, 1991, the Partnership has been managed by the General Partner or
its affiliates.
Competitive Conditions
Since the principal business of the Partnership is to own and operate real
estate, the Partnership is subject to all of the risks incident to ownership of
real estate and interests therein, many of which relate to the illiquidity of
this type of investment. These risks include changes in general or local
economic conditions, changes in supply or demand for competing properties in an
area, changes in interest rates and availability of permanent mortgage funds
which may render the sale or refinancing of a property difficult or
unattractive, changes in real estate and zoning laws, increases in real property
tax rates and federal or local economic or rent controls. The illiquidity of
real estate investments generally impairs the ability of the Partnership to
respond promptly to changed circumstances. The Partnership competes with
numerous established companies, private investors (including foreign investors),
real estate investment trusts, limited partnerships and other entities (many of
which have greater resources than the Partnership) in connection with the sale,
financing and leasing of properties. The impact of these risks on the
Partnership, including losses from operations and foreclosure of the
Partnership's property, is described below under "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."
The Property has been affected by the declining California economy over the
past three years. Average market rental rates have remained flat or declined,
however, as a result of the capital renovation program, occupancy rates have
risen from 91% in 1992 to 95% at the end of 1995. Occupancy rates for the local
area average 90%. The renovation program, which addressed the dated appearance
of the Property, has made the Property much more competitive in its market.

Other Information
The environmental laws of the Federal government and of certain state and
local governments impose liability on current property owners for the clean-up
of hazardous and toxic substances discharged on the property. This liability may
be imposed without regard to the timing, cause or person responsible for the
release of such substances onto the property. The Partnership could be subject
to such liability in the event that it owns a property having such environmental
problems. The Partnership has no knowledge of any pending claims or proceedings
regarding such environmental problems.

of the State of California for the County of Los Angeles, Case No. BC13799
(Class and Derivative Action Complaint)
This is a corporate/securities class and derivative action brought in state
court by limited partners of each of the nine (9) limited partnerships that
are named as nominal defendants as listed above (as defined in this Section
1, "Partnerships"). Plaintiffs allege that McNeil Investors, Inc., its
affiliate McNeil Estate Management, Inc. and four (4) of their senior
officers and/or directors (as defined in this Section 1, the "Defendants")
have breached their fiduciary duties. Specifically, Plaintiffs allege that
Defendants have caused the Partnerships to enter into several wasteful
transactions that have no business purposes or benefit to the Partnerships
and which have rendered such units highly illiquid and artificially
depressed the prices that are available for units on the limited resale
market. Plaintiffs also allege that Defendants have engaged in a course of
conduct to prevent the acquisition of units by Carl Icahn by disseminating
false, misleading and inadequate information. Plaintiffs further allege
that Defendants have acted to advance their own personal interests at the
expense of the Partnerships' public unit holders by failing to sell
Partnership properties and failing to make distributions to unitholders
and, thereby, have breached the Partnership Agreements.
The Defendants deny that there is any merit to Plaintiff's allegations and
intend to vigorously defend these actions.

entities who are current owners of units and/or are limited partners in one
or more of the partnerships referenced above (as defined in this Section 2,
"Partnerships"). Plaintiff alleges that Defendants have breached their
fiduciary duties to the class members by, among other things, (1) taking
steps to prevent the consummation of the HR Offer and other tender offers
by High River, (2) failing to take steps to maximize unitholders' or
limited partners' values, including failure to liquidate the properties
owned by the Partnerships, (3) managing the Partnerships so as to extend
indefinitely the present fee arrangements, and (4) paying itself and
entities owned and controlled by the general partner excess fees and
reimbursements of general and administrative expenses.

Re: McNeil Limited Partnerships
Dear Messrs. Schnabl, Foye, Matetsky:
As you know, we have previously engaged in preliminary settlement
discussions in connection with the McNeil Limited Partnership Litigation. In
connection with such discussions, you requested that we provide you with a draft
of the consolidated complaint that we intend to file, after some revisions in
the California State Court. This document will be sent to you under separate
cover.
In an effort to allow your client another opportunity to settle the claims
asserted in the litigation, the undersigned counsel, on behalf of the putative
class, would be willing to settle the class and derivative claims against the
Defendants for no less than the following consideration:
1. The General Partner, or its affiliates, will cause a 25% reduction of
all General Partner fees, including the management distribution fees,
that are currently payable by the Partnerships to the General Partner
and/or its affiliates;
2. The General Partners will waive all claims for outstanding receivables
claimed to be owed to them by the partnerships (and return to the
Partnerships all receivables actually paid in the last 2 years); and
17
<PAGE>
3. The defendants will provide a liquidity option for the Limited Partners
by commencing, or causing the General Partners to take all steps to
solicit third parties to commence, tender offers for any and all, but
in no event less than 40%, of the outstanding limited partnership units
in an amount that exceeds the prices paid for the previous tender
offers commenced by High River Limited Partnership.
The agreement contemplated herein is subject to various conditions,
including the execution of a stipulation of settlement, approval by the
appropriate court, and notice to the limited partners of the Partnerships.
Please be advised that the above proposal will remain open until 5:00 p.m.
on Thursday, June 27, 1996.
Very truly yours,

On or about July 1, 1996, the attorneys for the plaintiffs in case styled
James F. Schofield, et. al. v. McNeil Partners, L.P., et. al. indicated an
intention to file an amended complaint to consolidate each of the above-
described lawsuits and to allege certain additional breaches of fiduciary duty
by the defendants, that the Partnership was dissolved pursuant to California law
in connection with the Partnership's 1992 reorganization, and that the required
vote pursuant to California law to approve the new general partner in connection
with the reorganization was not obtained.
Following a review and evaluation of the letter and the draft of the
amended complaint, the Defendants' Attorneys met with and advised the
Plaintiffs' Attorneys that the offer made in the letter was unacceptable. Since
the time of this discussion, the Defendants' Attorneys have not met with or had
further negotiations with the Plaintiffs' Attorneys with respect to the above-
described litigation.
Although any litigation is inherently uncertain, based on the information
currently available to the General Partner, the General Partner does not believe
that the pending or threatened litigation described above will have a material
adverse effect on the Partnership.
Two other class action lawsuits referenced in the Notes to the Financial
Statements as of December 31, 1995, styled Robert Lewis vs. McNeil Partners,
L.P., et. al., filed in the District Court of Dallas County, Texas, and James F.
Schofield, et. al. vs. McNeil Partners, L.P., et. al., filed in the United
States District Court, Southern District of New York, have been voluntarily
dismissed without prejudice by the respective plaintiffs in such actions.
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The audited Balance Sheets of the Partnership as of December 31, 1995 and
1994 and the audited Statements of Operations, Statements of Partners' Equity
and Statements of Cash Flows for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and
1993 are included in the Appendix A hereto. In addition, the unaudited
financial statements of the Partnership for the three months ended March 31,
1996 are unaudited, but in the opinion of the General Partner include all
adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a
fair statement of the unaudited interim period data.

The results of operations of the interim periods are not necessarily indicative
of the results to be expected for an entire year.
Pro forma financial statements illustrating the approximate financial
consequence to the Partnership of the Proposed Sale are not presented because
the financial consequence to the Partnership is shown above in "Proposal No. 2"
and because the Partnership will have no operations after the sale of the
Property.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Partnership was formed to acquire, operate and ultimately dispose of a
portfolio of income-producing real properties. At March 31, 1996, the
Partnership owned one apartment property, the Property, which is subject to a
mortgage note. During the three year period ended December 31, 1995, the
Partnership experienced net income of $2,869,840 and had generated cash from
operations of $4,220,969. The Property continues to operate profitably and the
Partnership's assets and liabilities have not changed significantly from their
balances at December 31, 1995.
On February 5, 1996, the Partnership executed the Purchase Agreement with
BRE to sell the Property. As of May 14, 1996, the Partnership executed the First
Amendment to the Purchase Agreement with BRE. See "Proposal No. 1 -- The
Purchase Agreement."
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
First Three Months of 1996 Compared to First Three Months of 1995.
Revenues
Total Partnership revenues decreased by $9,663 or 1% for the three months
ended March 31, 1996. Rental revenue decreased $10,995 and interest income
increased $1,332.
Rental revenue for the first three months of 1996 was $1,024,210 as
compared to $1,035,205 for the same period in 1995. The decrease in rental
revenue for the three months ended March 31, 1996 is due to a decrease in the
occupancy rate of the property. The occupancy rate decreased from 98% in March
1995 to 96% in March 1996.
Expenses
Total Partnership expenses decreased by $60,759 or 8% the first three
months of 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995. The most significant
decreases occurred in depreciation and utilities. The total decrease in expense
was offset by increases in mortgage interest, repairs and maintenance, other
property operating, general and administrative, and partnership management fees.
Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 1996 increased
$13,153 or 6% as compared to 1995. The increase is due to an increase in the
index used to calculate interest expense on the mortgage. The mortgage note
interest rate increased from 6.8% at March 31, 1995 to 7.6% at March 31, 1996.
The Partnership did not recognize any depreciation expense during the first
quarter of 1996 as a result of the adoption of the Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of."
Utility expense decreased $4,692 or 6% for the three months ended March 31,
1996 as compared to the same period in 1995. The decrease is related to the
installation of newer, more efficient boilers at the property.
20
<PAGE>
Repairs and maintenance expenses increased $19,195 or 21%, for the three
months ended 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995. The increase is due to
the replacement of carpeting and appliances, which met the Partnership's
criteria for capitalization based on the magnitude of replacements in 1995, but
were expensed in 1996.
Other property operating expenses increased $11,371 or 19% for the three
months ended March 31, 1996 as compared to 1995 due to the increase in
earthquake insurance for the Property. This increase was partially offset by
decreases in bad debt, office supplies and eviction costs.
General and administrative expenses increased $19,958 for the three months
ended March 31, 1996 as compared to the same period last year. The increase was
due to proxy costs and professional fees incurred by the Partnership relating to
the proposed sale of the Property.
Partnership management fees increased by $10,000 or 67% for the three
months ended March 31, 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995. These fees
are based on distributions made to the Limited Partners which increased in 1996
compared to 1995.
1995 Compared to 1994
Revenues
Total Partnership revenues increased by $230,158 or 6% as compared to 1994
revenues. Rental revenue and interest income increased $177,399 and $48,361,
respectively. The Partnership also recognized a gain on legal settlement of
$4,398 as a result of the settlement with Southmark received in 1995.
Rental revenue for 1995 was $4,051,346 as compared to $3,873,947 for 1994.
The increase is due to an increase in average occupancy of 2%, from 93% in 1994
to 95% in 1995. In addition to the increase in occupancy there was a decrease
in discounts and concessions offered to the residents.
Interest income increased by $48,361, or 74% due to an increase in the
interest rates and to greater average cash balances being invested in interest-
bearing accounts.
Expenses
Total Partnership expenses increased by $266,319 or 9% for the year ended
December 31, 1995 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1994. Factors
contributing to the increase in 1995 include increases in mortgage interest,
depreciation, other operating expenses, general and administrative, and general
and administrative-affiliates. The increases are offset only slightly by
decreases in property taxes.
Mortgage interest expense increased $98,052 or 13% in 1995 as compared to
1994. The increase is due to increases in the variable interest rate on the
mortgage note payable. The average interest rate during 1995 was 7.6% compared
to 6.5% in 1994.
Depreciation expense increased $62,609 or 13% in 1995 as compared to 1994.
This increase is due to the increase in capital improvements made at the
Property over the past few years. The Partnership made $397,178 and $406,397 in
capital improvements in 1995 and 1994, respectively.
Other operating expenses increased 21% or $45,852 in 1995 as compared to
1994. The increase is primarily due to increases in earthquake insurance
expense. Hazard insurance increased to $167,248 in 1995 from $98,449 in 1994.
Decreases in other operating expenses were reflected in decreases in bad debt
expense and marketing and leasing.
General and administrative expenses increased $49,591 in 1995 as compared
to the same period in 1994. The increase was due to costs incurred by the
Partnership in the third quarter of 1995 to evaluate and disseminate information
regarding an unsolicited tender offer as discussed in Background and Reasons for
the Proposed Sale.
21
<PAGE>
General and administrative-affiliates increased $10,000 or 33% in 1995 as
compared to the same period in 1994 due to an increase in Partnership management
fees. These fees are based on distributions made to the Limited Partners which
increased in 1995.
1994 Compared to 1993
Revenue
Total Partnership revenues for 1994 increased by $46,992 as compared to
1993. Rental revenue and interest income increased $33,691 and $13,301,
respectively.
Rental revenue for 1994 was $3,873,947 as compared to $3,840,256 for 1993.
This increase of $33,691 is due to an increase in average occupancy from 91% in
1993 to 93% in 1994.
Interest income increased by $13,301 during 1994 as compared to 1993 due to
an increase in the interest rates and to greater average cash balances being
invested in interest-bearing accounts.
Expenses
Total Partnership expenses increased by $27,294 for the year ended December
31, 1994 as compared to the same period in 1993. Several factors contributed to
the increase including increases in depreciation, property taxes and personnel
expenses. These increases were offset by decreases in interest, repairs and
maintenance general and administrative, and general and administrative-
affiliates expenses.
Depreciation expense increased $85,024 or 22% in 1994 as compared to 1993.
This increase is due to the increase in capital improvements made at the
Property. During 1994, the Partnership made $406,397 in capital improvements.
Property taxes increased $37,794 or 18% during 1994 due to an increase in
the assessed land value which taxes are based.
Repairs and maintenance decreased by $22,014 or 5% in 1994 as compared to
1993. During the last few years, the Property underwent major renovations which
in turn reduced the need for interior and exterior repairs. The Property also
experienced a reduction in plumbing repairs and supplies during 1994 as compared
to 1993.
General and administrative expense decreased $21,340 or 38% as compared to
the same period last year due to legal expenses incurred in 1993 which related
to the 1992 purchase of land. No such expenses were incurred in 1994.
General and administrative-affiliates decreased by $30,450 or 50% in 1994
as compared to 1993 due to a decrease in Partnership management fees. These fees
are based on distributions made to the Limited Partners which decreased in 1994
compared to 1993.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Partnership's primary source of cash flow is from operating activities,
which generated $407,144 for the first three months of 1996 as compared to
$387,795 for the same period in 1995. This increase is due to the timing of the
payment of the property taxes which is partially offset by the increase in cash
paid to suppliers and the increase in interest paid. Operating activities
generated $1,448,315 in 1995 as compared to $1,473,245 in 1994. The decrease in
operating cash flow in 1995 was due to the increase in the cash paid to
suppliers and the amount of interest paid, which increased by $90,087 due to the
increase in mortgage interest rates. The decrease in operating cash flow was
partially offset by the increase in cash received from tenants. During 1994,
cash provided by operating activities increased to $1,473,245 as compared to
$1,299,409 in 1993. The increase in 1994 was partially due to the increase in
cash received from tenants and interest income as well as a reduction in the
cash paid to suppliers and mortgage interest paid.
22
<PAGE>
The Partnership expended $397,178, $406,397, and $621,842 for capital
improvements to the Property in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The
Partnership exercised its option to purchase the land underlying the Property in
December 1992 for $11,022,353.
The Partnership distributed $760,009 to the Limited Partners for 1995, and
$475,001 for the three month period ended March 31, 1996. The principal
payments on the mortgage note payable declined by $7,902 for the three months
ended March 31, 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995. This decline is
due to the reduction in the mortgage payment and the increase in the interest
rate.
At March 31, 1996, the Partnership held $1,933,577 of cash, down $91,428
since December 31, 1995. This balance provides for the working capital needs of
the Partnership and allows for distributions to the Limited Partners.
McNeil has established a revolving credit facility not to exceed $5,000,000
in the aggregate which will be available on a "first-come, first-served" basis
to the Partnership and other affiliated partnerships if certain conditions are
met. Borrowings under the facility may be used to fund deferred maintenance,
refinancing obligations and working capital needs. There is no assurance that
the Partnership will receive funds under the facility because no amounts will be
reserved for any particular partnership. As of March 31, 1996, $2,662,819
remained available for borrowing under the facility; however, additional funds
could become available as other partnerships repay existing borrowings. This
commitment will terminate March 30, 1997.
If operations should deteriorate and present resources not be adequate for
current needs, the Partnership has no established lines of credit on which to
draw for its working capital needs other than any available portion of the
$5,000,000 revolving credit facility discussed above, and thus would require
other sources of working capital. No such other sources have been identified.
During the three month period ended March 31, 1996, the Limited Partners
received a cash distribution of $475,001. During 1995, the Limited Partners
received cash distributions of $760,009. The distributions consisted of funds
from operations. Any cash not required for current operations is expected to
continue to be distributed to the Partners on the semi-annual schedule presently
followed. Distributions will be subject to maintenance of adequate levels of
cash reserves, and such distributions will only be available from cash generated
from operations.
MARKET FOR THE UNITS OF THE PARTNERSHIP
AND RELATED SECURITY HOLDER MATTERS
There is no established public trading market for Units issued by the
Partnership, nor is one expected to develop.

paid to the Limited Partners on or about March 1, 1996. On or about September
1, 1996 the General Partner intends to make a distribution of $570,000 to
Limited Partners of record as of August 1, 1996. No distributions were made to
the General Partner. The distributions consisted of funds generated from
operations and excess proceeds from financing the acquisition of the Property.
Subject to certain contingencies, distributions to the Limited Partners are
anticipated in 1996 or 1997 if the Proposed Sale is consummated. See "Proposal
No. 2 -- Estimated Distributions to Limited Partners."

FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES
INTRODUCTION
The following discussion is a summary of the material federal income
tax consequences of the Proposed Sale and liquidation of the Partnership to
Limited Partners that are United States individual taxpayers or domestic
corporate taxpayers. The discussion does not summarize the tax consequences
peculiar to nonresident foreign investors, tax exempt entities or other persons
subject to special treatment under federal income tax laws. No ruling has been
or will be requested from the Internal Revenue Service as to the federal income
tax matters discussed herein. The actual tax consequences to a particular
Limited Partner will depend on the Limited Partner's own tax circumstances.
Accordingly, Limited Partners are urged to consult their own tax advisors with
respect to the tax consequences of the Proposed Sale and liquidation as they are
individually affected. Further, persons who are assignees or successors in
interest with respect to the Partnership interest of another person should
consult their own tax advisor with respect to the tax consequences to them of
the Proposed Sale and liquidation. The discussion below is based upon the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, existing judicial decisions,
administrative regulations and published rulings, each of which is subject to
change, possibly on a retroactive basis. No assurance can be given that future
legislative, judicial or administrative changes would not adversely affect the
tax consequences to Limited Partners of the Proposed Sale and liquidation.
INCOME FROM PARTNERSHIP OPERATIONS
Any item of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit recognized by the
Partnership in addition to the income, gain or loss resulting from the transfer
of the Partnership's Property, whether recognized prior to the transfer and sale
or recognized during the period of liquidation, will continue to be allocated
among the Partners as provided in the Partnership Agreement. Each Limited
Partner will continue to receive Partnership income tax information to enable
the distributive share of all such Partnership taxable items allocated during
the period of liquidation to be reported.
RECEIPT OF LIQUIDATING DISTRIBUTIONS
Because the liquidating distribution will consist entirely of cash, a
Limited Partner will recognize a tax loss (or tax gain) equal to the amount by
which the Limited Partner's tax basis in such Units is greater than (or less
than) the amount of liquidating distributions. A Limited Partner's tax basis in
his or her Units will generally equal the price originally paid for the Units
(or the tax basis of the property exchanged for the Units) increased by his or
her distributive share of Partnership taxable income and decreased by the
distributive share of Partnership taxable losses and the amount of cash
distributed to the Limited Partners. Any gain or loss recognized by the Limited
Partner upon liquidation of the Partnership is treated as gain or loss from the
sale or exchange of a capital asset, except in the case of Units held for sale
to customers in the ordinary course of a trade or business.
TAXATION OF GAINS AND LOSSES
Individual and corporate taxpayers may utilize capital losses to offset
capital gains; however, a Limited Partner's capital losses can be deducted only
to the extent of a Limited Partner's capital gains plus, in the case of
noncorporate Limited Partners, ordinary income of up to $3,000. Noncorporate
Limited Partners may carry over a net capital loss for an unlimited time until
the loss is exhausted. Corporate Limited Partners may be allowed to carry the
unused capital losses to the three preceding tax years and to the five following
tax years.
PASSIVE ACTIVITY LOSS PROVISIONS
The passive loss limitations generally provide that individuals, estates,
trusts and certain closely held corporations and personal service corporations
can deduct losses from passive activities only to the extent of the taxpayer's
income from such passive activities or investments. Passive activities are, in
general, business activities in which a taxpayer does not materially
participate, such as those of the Partnership. However, losses with respect to
the Partnership that were previously disallowed to a Limited Partner under the
passive activity loss rules may be used to offset income or gain from the
Proposed Sale, and to the extent not used to offset such income or gain,
generally may
24
<PAGE>
be deducted by such Limited Partner in the taxable year in which the liquidation
of the Partnership is completed. In addition, deductions previously disallowed
to a Limited Partner by certain other limitations may be allowed to the extent
of income and gain recognized in the Proposed Sale.
WITHHOLDING UNDER CALIFORNIA LAW
The Partnership will withhold a portion of the distributions to be made to
Limited Partners pursuant to California law.
ESTIMATE OF TAX IMPACT
For each Limited Partner who has held Units since the original date of
their issuance, the General Partner estimates that the net 1996 taxable income
per Unit to Limited Partners will be $447.75 if the Proposed Sale is
consummated. Based upon this estimate and an assumed tax rate of 28%, the
estimated tax cost to such Limited Partners per Unit will be $125.37. The
actual tax cost to a Limited Partner, however, will depend upon the marginal tax
rate of that Limited Partner and may be more than or less than this amount. In
addition, as noted above, these transactions may allow a Limited Partner to
deduct certain losses that have been suspended under the passive loss or certain
other loss deferral provisions of the Code.
OTHER MATTERS
VOTING RIGHTS AND VOTE REQUIRED
The General Partner has fixed the close of business on August 9, 1996
as the record date (the "Record Date") for determination of the Limited Partners
entitled to notice of and to vote at the Meeting. Each holder of Units on the
Record Date is entitled to cast one vote per Unit. The General Partner and its
affiliates own less than 1% of the Units. At the close of business on the
Record Date there were 18,223 Units issued and outstanding held by 1,780 holders
of record. As of the same date, no individual or group as defined in Section
13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") was known
by the Partnership to own more than 5% of the Units except as noted below in
"Principal Holders of Units."
The affirmative vote of Limited Partners entitled to vote owning more
than 50% of the Units (9,112 Units) is required to approve and adopt the
Proposals. The presence, in person or by proxy, of Limited Partners entitled to
vote owning a majority of the Units is necessary to constitute a quorum at the
Meeting. In the event that there are insufficient proxies and votes at the
Meeting to constitute a quorum or to approve the Proposals (and proxies and
votes against the Proposals represent fewer than 50% of the Units), the Units
for which proxies have been received may be voted to adjourn the meeting to a
later date to permit the further solicitation of proxies. Notice of the
adjourned meeting need not be given if the time and place of the adjourned
meeting is announced at the Meeting (or the adjourned meeting) and the
adjournment is for not more than 45 days from the date of the original Meeting
and no new record date is set.
All Units represented at the Meeting by properly executed proxies
received prior to or at the Meeting, and not revoked, will be voted at the
Meeting in accordance with the instructions thereon. If no instructions are
indicated on a properly executed proxy, it will be voted for the approval and
adoption of the Proposals. Abstentions will be counted as no votes. Completed
proxies should be returned as soon as possible in the enclosed postage paid,
return envelope to Investor Operations, McNeil Partners, L.P., P.O. Box 801826,
Dallas, Texas 75380-9805. An inspector of elections will be appointed at the
meeting to oversee the tabulation of the votes.
25
<PAGE>
EFFECT OF NEGATIVE VOTE
If there is a negative vote on either or both of Proposal No. 1 or
Proposal No. 2, then the Proposed Sale will not be consummated, and the
Partnership will not be dissolved, liquidated and terminated. If the Proposed
Sale is not consummated, the Partnership's anticipated plan of operation is to
preserve or increase the Property's net operating income whenever possible,
while at the same time making whatever capital expenditures are reasonable under
the circumstances in order to preserve and enhance the value of the Property.
PRINCIPAL HOLDERS OF UNITS
The following table sets forth as of August 1, 1996, certain information
regarding the beneficial ownership of the Units by each individual or group as
defined by Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
who is known to the Partnership to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of
the outstanding Units and by the General Partner:

collectively own the Units described above and which have filed a joint Schedule
13D, as amended, to report such ownership. Liquidity Financial Group, L.P. is
owned by Richard G. Wollack and Brent R. Donaldson.
**Represents less than 1%.
REVOCABILITY
A proxy given pursuant to this solicitation may be revoked at any time
before it is voted. Proxies may be revoked (i) by filing with the Partnership
(at the address indicated above) at or before the Meeting a written notice of
revocation bearing a later date than the proxy, (ii) by duly executing a
subsequent proxy bearing a later date than the proxy relating to the same Units
and delivering it to the Partnership (at the address indicated above) at or
before the Meeting, or (iii) by attending the Meeting and voting in person
(although attendance at the Meeting will not in itself constitute such
revocation).
PROXY SOLICITATION
The Partnership is paying all costs of the proxy solicitation which
costs are estimated to be $6,000. In addition to solicitation by use of the
mails, proxies may be solicited by the General Partner, its partners, employees
and affiliates in person or by telephone, telegram or other means of
communication. Such persons and entities will be reimbursed for out-of-pocket
expenses in connection with such solicitation, including, without limitation,
personnel costs, overhead, telephone charges, etc. Arrangements will also be
made with brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for
forwarding solicitation materials to the beneficial owners of Units held of
record by such persons, and the Partnership will reimburse such persons for
their reasonable expenses incurred in that connection.
26
<PAGE>
NO APPRAISAL RIGHTS
If Limited Partners entitled to vote at the Meeting and owning more than
50% of the outstanding Units vote in favor of the Proposals, such approval will
bind all Limited Partners including those who vote against the Proposals or
abstain from voting at the Meeting. Neither the Partnership Agreement nor
California law, under which the Partnership is governed, gives rights of
appraisal or similar rights to Limited Partners who dissent from the vote of the
majority in approving or disapproving the Proposals. Accordingly, dissenting
Limited Partners do not have the right to have their Units appraised and to have
the value of those Units returned to them because they disapprove of the action
of a majority in interest of the Limited Partners.
EFFECTUATION OF PROPOSALS
If the Proposals are approved by the required vote of the Limited Partners,
the General Partner will proceed to consummate the Proposed Sale. Even if
approved by the Limited Partners, there is no assurance that the Proposed Sale
of the Property will actually be consummated.
If the Proposed Sale is consummated, then the Partnership will be
dissolved, and the General Partner will liquidate and terminate the Partnership
in accordance with the Partnership Agreement. Limited Partners will receive such
distributions to which they are entitled pursuant to the Partnership Agreement.
However, the General Partner has not determined the precise timing and amount of
distributions to the Limited Partners that would occur after the Proposed Sale
and in connection with the liquidation of the Partnership due to certain ongoing
litigation and potential indemnification obligations pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement. See "Proposal No. 2 -- Liquidation under the Partnership Agreement"
and "Proposal No. 2 -- Estimated Distributions to Limited Partners."

ARTHUR ANDERSEN LLP
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To the Partners of
McNeil Real Estate Fund V, Ltd.:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of McNeil Real Estate Fund V,
Ltd. (a California limited partnership) as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and
the related statements of income, partners' equity and cash flows for each of
the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995. These financial
statements and the schedule referred to below are the responsibility of the
Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and the schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
As further discussed in Note 8 to the financial statements, in February 1996,
the Partnership executed a purchase agreement to sell the Sycamore Valley
Apartments, which represents substantially all of the assets of the Partnership.
Consummation of the sale is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions,
including the approval of the Partnership's limited partners. If the sale of
Sycamore Valley Apartments is consummated, the Partnership's general partner
will commence the dissolution and termination of the Partnership. The
accompanying financial statements have not been prepared on the liquidation
basis of accounting, as the sale of Sycamore Valley Apartments is subject to
limited partner approval.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of McNeil Real Estate Fund V, Ltd.
as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The schedule listed in the index to
financial statements is presented for purposes of complying with the Securities
and Exchange Commission's rules and is not part of the basic financial
statements. This schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied
in our audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, fairly
states in all material respects the financial data required to be set forth
therein in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 1995
MCNEIL REAL ESTATE FUND V, LTD.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 1995
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization
McNeil Real Estate Fund V, Ltd. (the "Partnership") was organized September 12,
1974, as a limited partnership under the provisions of the California Uniform
Limited Partnership Act. The general partner of the Partnership is McNeil
Partners, L.P. (the "General Partner"), a Delaware limited partnership, an
affiliate of Robert A. McNeil ("McNeil"). The General Partner was elected at a
meeting of limited partners on March 26, 1992. Prior to March 26, 1992, Pacific
Investors Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Southmark Corporation
("Southmark"), and McNeil were the general partners of the Partnership which was
governed by an agreement of limited partnership dated September 12, 1974 (the
"Partnership Agreement"). The principal place of business for the Partnership
and the General Partner is 13760 Noel Road, Suite 700, LB70, Dallas, Texas
75240.
The Partnership is engaged in real estate activities, including the ownership,
operation and management of residential real estate and other real estate
related assets. At December 31, 1995, the Partnership owned one income-
producing property as described in Note 4 - Real Estate Investment.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Real Estate Investment
The real estate investment is generally stated at the lower of cost or net
realizable value. The real estate investment is monitored on an ongoing basis
to determine if the property has sustained a permanent impairment in value. At
such time, a write-down is recorded to reduce the basis of the property to its
net realizable value. A permanent impairment is determined to have occurred
when a decline in property value is considered to be other than temporary based
upon management's expectations with respect to projected cash flows and
prevailing economic conditions.
Improvements and betterments are capitalized and expensed through depreciation
charges. Repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred.
In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-
Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of." This statement
requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be held
and used by an entity be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
recoverable. This statement is effective for financial statements for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 1995. The Partnership has not adopted the
principles of this statement within the accompanying financial statements;
however, it is not anticipated that adoption will have a material effect on the
carrying value of the Partnership's long-lived assets.
Asset Held for Sale
Asset held for sale is stated at the lower of cost or estimated realizable
value.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 1995
MCNEIL REAL ESTATE FUND V, LTD.
Depreciation
Buildings and improvements are depreciated using the straight-line method over
the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from 3 to 25 years.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and cash on deposit with
financial institutions with original maturities of three months or less.
Carrying amounts for cash and cash equivalents approximate fair value.
Deferred Borrowing Costs
Loan fees and other related costs incurred to obtain long-term financing on real
property are capitalized and amortized using a method that approximates the
effective interest method over the term of the related mortgage note payable.
Amortization of deferred borrowing costs is included in interest expense on the
Statements of Income.
Rental Revenue
The Partnership leases its residential property under short-term operating
leases. Lease terms generally are less than one year in duration. Rental income
is recognized as earned.
Income Taxes
No provision for Federal income taxes is necessary in the financial statements
of the Partnership because, as a partnership, it is not subject to Federal
income tax and the tax effect of its activities accrues to the partners.
Allocation of Net Income and Net Loss
Net income from Partnership operations is allocated to the partners in the same
priorities as cash distributions from operations. Net income arising from the
sale or other disposition of the Partnership's property is allocated to the
partners in the same priorities as cash distributions arising from the sale of
Partnership properties. Net losses of the Partnership are allocated 95% to the
limited partners and 5% to the General Partner.
Federal income tax law provides that the allocation of loss to a partner will
not be recognized unless the allocation is in accordance with a partner's
interest in the partnership or the allocation has substantial economic effect.
Internal Revenue Code Section 704(b) and accompanying Treasury Regulations
establish criteria for allocations of Partnership deductions attributable to
debt. The Partnership's tax allocations for 1995, 1994 and 1993 have been made
in accordance with these provisions.
Distributions
At the discretion of the General Partner, distributions to the partners are paid
from operations of the Partnership's property, from sales or refinancing of the
property, or from excess cash reserves maintained by the Partnership.
Distributions from operations of the Partnership's property are paid 100% to the
limited partners.

<PAGE>
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 1995
MCNEIL REAL ESTATE FUND V, LTD.
Distributions from sales or refinancing of the Partnership's property or from
excess cash reserves held by the Partnership are made in the following order:
(a) First to the limited partners in an amount that, when added to all prior
distributions to the limited partners, equals (i) a 7% per annum cumulative
return on the limited partners' adjusted invested capital and (ii) the
limited partners' original invested capital; then,
(b) Second to an affiliate of the General Partner in payment of the real estate
brokerage commission (see Note 2); then,
(c) Third to the limited partners in an amount equal to an additional 5% per
annum cumulative return on their adjusted invested capital; then,
(d) Fourth to the General Partner in an amount equal to the subordinated
incentive fee; then,
(e) All the remaining distributions are paid to the limited partners.
During 1995, 1994 and 1993, the Partnership distributed cash from operations of
$760,009, $570,008 and $1,148,553, respectively, to the limited partners. In
February 1996, a distribution of approximately $475,000 was made to the limited
partners.
No distributions were paid to the General Partner during the three years ended
December 31, 1995.
Net Income Per Limited Partnership Unit
Net income per limited partnership unit ("Units") is computed by dividing net
income allocated to the limited partners by the number of Units outstanding.
Per unit information has been computed based on 18,223 units outstanding for
1995, 1994, and 1993.
NOTE 2 - TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Partnership pays property management fees equal to 5% of the gross rental
receipts of Sycamore Valley, the Partnership's residential property, to McNeil
Real Estate Management, Inc. ("McREMI"), an affiliate of the General Partner,
for providing property management and leasing services.
As compensation for administering the affairs of the Partnership, the General
Partner receives a partnership management fee equal to 5% of cash from
operations, as defined, but only if the limited partners receive distributions
of cash from operations equal to a 6% per annum non-cumulative return on their
adjusted invested capital. As shown in the table below, such fees were paid to
or accrued for the General Partner in each of the three years ended December 31,
1995.
The Partnership is obligated to pay commissions for real estate brokerage
services to an affiliate of the General Partner in connection with the sale of
the Partnership's property. Such commissions shall not exceed the lesser of (i)
the normal and competitive rate for similar services in the locality where the
services are performed, (ii) 50% of the standard commission or (iii) one-half of
the total acquisition fees which could have been paid to the General Partner
under the terms of the Partnership Agreement. There were no such fees in 1995,
1994 and 1993.
Under the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner is also
entitled to receive a subordinated incentive fee. This fee is an amount equal
to 10% of the remaining cash from sales or refinancings, as defined, in excess
of the cost of all partnership properties, as defined. The cash from sales or
refinancing distributed to the limited partners has exceeded the subordination
requirement. There were no such fees in 1995, 1994 and 1993. See Note 8.

NOTE 3 - TAXABLE INCOME
McNeil Real Estate Fund V, Ltd. is a partnership and is not subject to Federal
and state income taxes. Accordingly, no recognition has been given to income
taxes in the accompanying financial statements of the Partnership since the
income or loss of the Partnership is to be included in the tax returns of the
individual partners. The tax returns of the Partnership are subject to
examination by Federal and state taxing authorities. If such examinations
result in adjustments to distributive shares of taxable income or loss, the tax
liability of the partners could be adjusted accordingly.
The Partnership's net assets and liabilities for tax purposes exceeded the net
assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes by $741,161 in 1995,
$648,409 in 1994 and $625,886 in 1993.

NOTE 5 - MORTGAGE NOTE PAYABLE
On August 14, 1992, the Partnership borrowed $12,000,000 by mortgaging its
Sycamore Valley property. The mortgage note is non-recourse and bears interest
at a monthly variable rate equal to the Eleventh Federal Reserve District's Cost
of Funds Index plus 2.5%. The mortgage note specifies that the interest rate
may not go below a floor rate of 6.502% nor above a ceiling rate of 13.502%.
The actual interest rate at December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 was 7.611%, 6.539%
and 6.502%, respectively. Monthly debt service payments are adjusted annually
to an amount necessary to fully amortize the loan over a thirty-year period.
The monthly payment was adjusted from $74,166 to $79,728 effective
October 1, 1995. The note matures on August 14, 2022.

NOTE 6 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Partnership is not party to, nor is the Partnership's property the subject
of, any material pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary, routine
litigation incidental to the Partnership's business, except for the following:
1) High River Limited Partnership v. McNeil Partners, L.P., McNeil Investors,
Inc., McNeil Pacific Investors 1972, Ltd., McNeil Real Estate Fund V, Ltd.,
McNeil Real Estate Fund IX, Ltd., McNeil Real Estate Fund X, Ltd., McNeil
Real Estate Fund XI, Ltd., McNeil Real Estate Fund XIV, Ltd., McNeil Real
Estate Fund XV, Ltd., McNeil Real Estate Fund XX, L.P., McNeil Real Estate
Fund XXIV, L.P., McNeil Real Estate Fund XXV, L.P., Robert A. McNeil and
Carole J. McNeil (L95012) - High River ("HR") filed this action in the
United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against
McNeil Partners, L.P., McNeil Investors, Inc. and Mr. and Mrs. McNeil (as
defined in this Section 1, collectively, the "Defendants") requesting,
among other things, names and addresses of the limited partners in the
partnerships referenced above (as defined in this Section 1, the
"Partnerships"). The District Court issued a preliminary injunction against
the Partnerships requiring them to commence mailing materials relating to
the HR tender offer on August 14, 1995.
On August 18, 1995, the Defendants filed an Answer and Counterclaim. The
Counterclaim principally asserts (1) the HR tender offers have been
undertaken in violation of the federal securities laws, on the basis of
material, non-public, and confidential information, and (2) that the HR
offer documents omit and/or misrepresent certain material information about
the HR tender offers. The Counterclaim seeks a preliminary and permanent
injunction against the continuation of the HR tender offers and,
alternatively, ordering corrective disclosure with respect to allegedly
false and misleading statements contained in the tender offer documents.
This action was dismissed without prejudice in November 1995.
2) High River Limited Partnership v. McNeil Partners, L.P., McNeil Investors,
Inc., McNeil Pacific Investors 1972, Ltd., McNeil Real Estate Fund V, Ltd.,
McNeil Real Estate Fund IX, Ltd., McNeil Real Estate Fund X, Ltd., McNeil
Real Estate Fund XI, Ltd., McNeil Real Estate Fund XIV, Ltd., McNeil Real
Estate Fund XV, Ltd., McNeil Real Estate Fund XX, L.P., McNeil Real Estate
Fund XXIV, L.P., McNeil Real Estate Fund XXV, L.P., Robert A. McNeil and
Carole J. McNeil -United States District Court for the Southern District of
New York, (Case No. 95 Civ. 9488) (Second Action).
On November 7, 1995, High River filed a second complaint with the District
Court which alleges, inter alia, that McNeil Partners, L.P.'s (the "General
Partner") Schedule 14D-9 filed in connection with the High River tender
offers was materially false and misleading, in violation of Sections 14(d)
and 14(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, 15 U.S.C. Section 78n(d)
and (e), and the SEC Regulations promulgated thereunder; and that High
River further alleges that the General Partner has wrongfully
F-12
<PAGE>
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 1995
MCNEIL REAL ESTATE FUND V, LTD.
refused to admit High River as a limited partner to the ten partnerships
referenced above. Additionally, High River purports to assert claims
derivatively on behalf of McNeil Real Estate Fund IX, Ltd., McNeil Real
Estate Fund XI, Ltd., McNeil Real Estate Fund XV, Ltd., McNeil Real Estate
Fund XXIV, L.P. and McNeil Real Estate Fund XXV, L.P., for breach of
contract and breach of fiduciary duty, asserting that the General Partner
has charged these partnerships excessive fees. High River's complaint seeks,
inter alia, preliminary injunctive relief requiring the General Partner to
admit High River as a limited partner in each of the ten partnerships
referenced above and to transfer the tendered units of interest in the
partnerships to High River; an unspecified award of damages payable to High
River and an additional unspecified award of damages payable to certain of
the partnerships; an order that defendants must discharge their fiduciary
duties and must account for all fees they have received from certain of the
partnerships; and attorneys' fees.
On January 31, 1996, this action was dismissed without prejudice.
3) Robert Lewis v. McNeil Partners, L.P., McNeil Investors, Inc., Robert A.
McNeil et al - In the District Court of Dallas County, Texas, A-14th
Judicial District, Cause No. 95-08535 (Class Action) - Plaintiff, Robert
Lewis, is a limited partner with McNeil Pacific Investors Fund 1972, Ltd.,
McNeil Real Estate Fund X, Ltd. and McNeil Real Estate Fund XV, Ltd.
Plaintiff brings this action on his own behalf and as a class action on
behalf of the class of all limited partners of McNeil Pacific Investors Fund
1972, Ltd., McNeil Real Estate Fund V, Ltd., McNeil Real Estate Fund IX,
Ltd., McNeil Real Estate Fund X, Ltd., McNeil Real Estate Fund XI, Ltd.,
McNeil Real Estate Fund XIV, Ltd., McNeil Real Estate Fund XV, Ltd., McNeil
Real Estate Fund XX, L.P., McNeil Real Estate Fund XXIV, L.P. and McNeil
Real Estate Fund XXV, Ltd. (as defined in this Section 3, the
"Partnerships") as of August 4, 1995.
Plaintiff alleges that McNeil Partners, L.P., McNeil Investors, Inc., Robert
A. McNeil and other senior officers (as defined in this Section 3,
collectively, the "Defendants") breached their fiduciary duties by, among
other things, (1) failing to attempt to sell the properties owned by the
Partnerships (as defined in this Section 3, the "Properties") and extending
the lives of the Partnerships indefinitely, contrary to the Partnerships'
business plans, (2) paying distributions to themselves and generating fees
for their affiliates, (3) refusing to make significant distributions to the
class members, despite the fact that the Partnerships have positive cash
flows and substantial cash balances, and (4) failing to take steps to create
an auction market for equity interests of the Partnerships, despite the fact
that a third party bidder filed tender offers for approximately forty-five
percent (45%) of the outstanding units of each of the Partnerships.
Plaintiff also claims that Defendants have breached the partnership
agreements of the Partnerships by failing to take steps to liquidate the
Properties and by their alteration of the Partnerships' primary purposes,
their acts in contravention of these agreements, and their use of the assets
of the Partnerships for their own benefit instead of for the benefit of the
Partnerships.
The Defendants deny that there is any merit to Plaintiff's allegations and
intend to vigorously defend this action.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 1995

These are corporate/securities class and derivative actions brought in state
and federal court by limited partners of each of the nine (9) limited
partnerships that are named as nominal defendants as listed above (as
defined in this Section 4, the "Partnerships"). Plaintiffs allege that
McNeil Investors, Inc., its affiliate McNeil Real Estate Management, Inc.
and four (4) of their senior officers and/or directors (as defined in this
Section 4, collectively, the "Defendants") have breached their fiduciary
duties. Specifically, Plaintiffs allege that Defendants have caused the
Partnerships to enter into several wasteful transactions that have no
business purpose or benefit to the Partnerships and which have rendered such
units highly illiquid and artificially depressed the prices that are
available for units on the limited resale market. Plaintiffs also allege
that Defendants have engaged in a course of conduct to prevent the
acquisition of units by Carl Icahn by disseminating false, misleading and
inadequate information. Plaintiffs further allege that Defendants have acted
to advance their own personal interests at the expense of the Partnerships'
public unit holders by failing to sell Partnership properties and failing to
make distributions to unitholders and, thereby, have breached the
partnership agreements.
The Defendants deny that there is any merit to Plaintiff's allegations and
intend to vigorously defend these actions.

Plaintiff brings this class action on behalf of a class of all persons and
entities who are current owners of units and/or are limited partners in one

the "Partnerships"). Plaintiff alleges that McNeil Partners, L.P., McNeil
Investors, Inc., Robert A. McNeil and other senior officers (as defined in
this Section 5, collectively, the "Defendants") have breached their
fiduciary duties to the class members by, among other things, (1) taking
steps to prevent the consummation of the High River tender offers, (2)
failing to take steps to maximize unitholders' or limited partners' values,
including failure to liquidate the properties owned by the Partnerships, (3)
managing the Partnerships so as to extend indefinitely the present fee
arrangements, and (4) paying itself and entities owned and controlled by the
general partner excessive fees and reimbursements of general and
administrative expenses.
The Defendants deny that there is any merit to Plaintiff's allegations and
intend to vigorously defend this action.

and (4) paying itself and entities owned and controlled by the general
partner excessive fees and reimbursements of general and administrative

intend to vigorously defend this action.
7) HCW Pension Real Estate Fund, Ltd. et al. v. Ernst & Young, BDO Seidman et
al (Case #92-06560-A). This suit was filed on behalf of the Partnership and
other affiliated partnerships (the "Affiliated Partnerships") on May 26,
1992, in the 14th Judicial District Court of Dallas County. The petition
sought recovery against the Partnership's former auditors, BDO Seidman, for
negligence and fraud in failing to detect and/or report overcharges of
fees/expenses by Southmark, the former general partner. The former auditors
asserted counterclaims against the Affiliated Partnerships based on alleged
fraudulent misrepresentations made to the auditors by the former management
of the Affiliated Partnerships (Southmark) in the form of client
representation letters executed and delivered to the auditors by Southmark
management. The counterclaims sought recovery of attorneys' fees and costs
incurred in defending this action. The original petition also alleged causes
of action against certain former officers and directors of the Partnership's
original general partner for breach of fiduciary duty, fraud and conspiracy
relating to the improper assessment and payment of certain administrative
fees/expenses. On January 11, 1994 the allegations against the former
officers and directors were dismissed.
The trial court granted summary judgment in favor of Ernst & Young and BDO
Seidman on the fraud and negligence claims based on the statute of
limitations. The Affiliated Partnerships appealed the summary judgment to
the Dallas Court of Appeals. In August 1995, the Appeals Court upheld all of
the summary judgments in favor of BDO Seidman. In exchange for the
plaintiff's agreement not to file any motions for rehearing or further
appeals, BDO Seidman agreed that it will not pursue the counterclaims
against the Partnership.
NOTE 7 - GAIN ON LEGAL SETTLEMENT
The Partnership filed claims with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the
Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division (the "Bankruptcy Court") against
Southmark Corporation ("Southmark"), an affiliate of a previous general partner,
for damages relating to improper overcharges, breach of contract and breach of
fiduciary duty. The Partnership settled these claims in 1991, and such
settlement was approved by the Bankruptcy Court.
An Order Granting Motion to Distribute Funds to Class 8 Claimants dated April
14, 1995 was issued by the Bankruptcy Court. In accordance with the Order, in
May 1995 the Partnership received in full satisfaction of its claims, $3,325 in
cash, and common and preferred stock in the reorganized Southmark, which
represents the Partnership's pro-rata share of Southmark assets available for
Class 8 Claimants. The Partnership sold the Southmark common and preferred
stock in May 1995 for $1,073, which combined with the cash proceeds from
Southmark, resulted in a gain on legal settlement of $4,398.
NOTE 8 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On February 5, 1996, the Partnership executed a purchase agreement dated January
23, 1996 with BRE Properties, Inc. to sell to BRE the Sycamore Valley Apartments
which represents substantially all of the assets of the Partnership. The gross
purchase price for Sycamore Valley is $23,300,000, subject to certain
adjustments. Consummation of the sale is subject to the satisfaction of certain
conditions, including the approval of the limited partners of the Partnership
for the sale of Sycamore Valley. The Partnership presently anticipates
submitting the sale and the subsequent dissolution and termination of the
Partnership for limited partner approval at a future meeting.
F-15
<PAGE>
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 1995
MCNEIL REAL ESTATE FUND V, LTD.
If the limited partners approve and the sale of Sycamore Valley is consummated,
the General Partner will commence the dissolution and termination of the
Partnership. In connection with such dissolution and termination, the General
Partner will liquidate any remaining assets, repay creditors, pay to the General
Partner a brokerage fee and subordinated incentive fee (See Note 2), and
authorize distributions to the limited partners of the Partnership, including
distributions of net proceeds from the sale of Sycamore Valley, in accordance
with the terms of the Partnership Agreement of the Partnership. Neither the
amount nor timing of any such distributions has been determined. The financial
statements have not been prepared on the liquidation basis of accounting, as the
sale is subject to limited partner approval.

Notes to Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
March 31, 1996
NOTE 1.
McNeil Real Estate Fund V, Ltd. (the "Partnership") was organized September 12,
1974 as a limited partnership under the provisions of the California Uniform
Limited Partnership Act. The general partner of the Partnership is McNeil
Partners, L.P. (the "General Partner"), a Delaware limited partnership, an
affiliate of Robert A. McNeil. The Partnership is governed by an agreement of
limited partnership dated September 12, 1974 (the "Partnership Agreement"). 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 three months ended March 31, 1996 are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending
December 31, 1996.
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, 1995, and the notes thereto, as filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, which is available upon request by writing
to McNeil Real Estate Fund V, Ltd. c/o McNeil Real Estate Management, Inc.,
Investor Services, 13760 Noel Road, Suite 700, LB70, Dallas, Texas 75240.
NOTE 3.
The Partnership pays property management fees equal to 5% of gross rental
receipts of Sycamore Valley, the Partnership's residential property, to McNeil
Real Estate Management, Inc. ("McREMI"), an affiliate of the General Partner,
for providing management and leasing services.
As compensation for administering the affairs of the Partnership, the General
Partner receives a partnership management fee equal to 5% of cash from
operations, as defined, but only if the limited partners receive distributions
of cash from operations equal to a 6% per annum non-cumulative return on their
adjusted invested capital. In addition, the General Partner is entitled to
receive a subordinated incentive fee. This fee is equal to 10% of the remaining
cash from sales and refinancings in excess of the cost of all Partnership
properties, as defined. The cash from sales or refinancing distributed to the
limited partners has exceeded the subordination requirement.
The Partnership is obligated to pay commissions for real estate brokerage
services to an affiliate of the General Partner in connection with the sale of
the Partnership's property. Such commissions shall not exceed the lesser of (i)
the normal and competitive rate for similar services in the locality where the
services are performed, (ii) 50% of the standard commission or (iii) one-half of
the total acquisition fees which could have been paid to the General Partner
under the terms of the Partnership Agreement.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF MARCH 31, 1996
MCNEIL REAL ESTATE FUND V, LTD.
Under the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner is also
entitled to receive a subordinated incentive fee. This fee is an amount equal
to 10% of the remaining cash from sales or refinancings, as defined, in excess
of the cost of all partnership properties, as defined. The cash from sales or
refinancing distributed to the limited partners has exceeded the subordination
requirement.
Compensation and reimbursements paid to or accrued for the benefit of the
General Partner and its affiliates are as follows:

NOTE 4.
In 1996, the Partnership adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board's
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of."
This statement requires the cessation of depreciation on assets held for sale.
Since Sycamore Valley is currently classified as an asset held for sale, no
depreciation was taken in 1996.
NOTE 5.
On February 5, 1996, the Partnership executed a purchase agreement dated January
23, 1996 with BRE Properties, Inc. to sell to BRE the Sycamore Valley Apartments
which represents substantially all of the assets of the Partnership. The gross
purchase price for Sycamore Valley is $23,300,000, subject to certain
adjustments. Consummation of the sale is subject to the satisfaction of certain
conditions, including the approval of the limited partners of the Partnership
for the sale of Sycamore Valley. The Partnership presently anticipates
submitting the sale and the subsequent dissolution and termination of the
Partnership for limited partner approval at a future meeting.
If the limited partners approve and the sale of Sycamore Valley is consummated,
the General Partner will commence the dissolution and termination of the
Partnership. In connection with such dissolution and termination, the General
Partner will liquidate any remaining assets, repay creditors, pay to the General
Partner a brokerage fee and subordinated incentive fee (See Note 2), and
authorize distributions to the limited partners of the Partnership, including
distributions of net proceeds from the sale of Sycamore Valley, in accordance
with the terms of the Partnership Agreement of the Partnership. Neither the
amount nor timing of any such distributions has been determined. The financial
statements have not been prepared on the liquidation basis of accounting, as the
sale is subject to limited partner approval.
