ITEM 1   BUSINESS

Formation of the Partnership

The registrant, MultiVest Real Estate Fund, Ltd. (Series I) ("Partnership"), is
a Michigan limited partnership which was formed in 1971 primarily to invest in,
operate and dispose of improved real estate.  The Partnership is operated by its
(corporate) general partner, MultiVest Real Estate, Inc., a Delaware corporation
("General Partner").

The Partnership originally invested its funds in apartment complexes and
shopping centers which the General Partner considered had a potential for profit
either through income or gain on resale.  The Partnership also attempted to
provide tax shelter benefits for participants when feasible within its primary
investment objective.

Dissolution of the Partnership

The Partnership is in the process of dissolution pursuant to its Agreement of
Limited Partnership ("Partnership Agreement"), which provides that, upon a
dissolution, the assets of the Partnership are to be liquidated as promptly as
is consistent with obtaining their fair value.

The Partnership owns and operates Warwick Apartments located in Fort Worth,
Texas.  The property is presently on the market for sale.  Any sale will be
subject to a number of conditions, including first and foremost, a satisfactory
offer.

Summary of Business Operations for the Year Ended December 31, 1995

Operations of the Partnership consist of the ownership and operation of Warwick
Apartments in Fort Worth, Texas.  As of December 31, 1995, the Partnership had 4
employees.  Such employees are the on-site personnel at Warwick Apartments.

On May 5, 1995, Warwick Apartments sustained significant damage as a result of a
hailstorm which hit the Fort Worth, Texas area.  Due to the damage, occupancy
at the property declined approximately 16%.  Damage to the property has
subsequently been repaired and management is currently in the process of
re-marketing and leasing the vacant units.  The Partnership is presently in
negotiations with the insurance carrier to reach a settlement with regard to
the damages and rental loss.

The sources of operating income for the Partnership primarily consist of
interest earned on funds held in reserve pursuant to the Partnership Agreement
and income from the operations of Warwick Apartments.

For additional information on 1995 operations, see Item 7 "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations".

Future Business Operations of the Partnership

The General Partner anticipates continuation of the dissolution and winding up
of the Partnership.  Future cash distributions to the Limited Partners will be
based on the cash flow (if any) from operations of, or sale of, Warwick
Apartments.

                 MULTIVEST REAL ESTATE FUND, LTD. (SERIES  I) 


Conflicts of Interest

The Partnership is subject to various conflicts of interest arising out of its
relationship with the General Partner and its affiliates.  These conflicts
involve:

1.  Competition by the Partnership with Other Partnerships for Management
    Services:  The General Partner serves as a general partner in three other
    limited partnerships, all of which were formed to engage in similar
    businesses as this Partnership, and two of which are presently being wound
    up and liquidated.  The General Partner may have conflicts of interest in
    allocating management time, services and functions among the various
    partnerships and any future partnerships and other entities which may be
    organized; however, the General Partner believes that it has sufficient
    staff to be fully capable of discharging its responsibilities to each
    partnership and other entities.

2.  Liability of General Partner to Other Partnerships:  The General Partner is
    generally liable for the Partnership's recourse obligations, to the extent
    not paid by the Partnership.  Because the General Partner is a general
    partner in other limited partnerships, creditors of any of the partnerships
    could seek to realize on the assets of the General Partner if that
    partnership's assets were insufficient to satisfy its debts.  Should the
    General Partner at any time have insufficient assets to meet such
    obligations, the General Partner could face conflicts of interest with
    regard to the manner in which its assets are distributed to meet the
    obligations.

3.  Real Estate Commissions and Other Commissions Earned by Affiliates:  To
    the extent the Partnership sells Warwick Apartments or requires a
    construction manager for repairs or construction at Warwick Apartments, the
    Partnership may pay real estate commissions thereon to brokers or
    construction management fees to the construction manager, including an
    affiliate of the General Partner, subject to such restrictions and upon
    such terms as are provided in the Partnership Agreement.

4.  Provision for Property Management and Mortgage Servicing Services for the
    Partnership by an Affiliate:  An affiliate of the General Partner performs
    property management and mortgage servicing for the Partnership.  In the
    opinion of the General Partner, such affiliate is engaged, in accordance
    with the Partnership Agreement, on terms which are fair and reasonable and
    no less favorable than could reasonably be obtained by the Partnership with
    unaffiliated persons.

5.  Provision for Legal Services:  The firm of Honigman Miller Schwartz and
    Cohn is counsel to the Partnership.  It is also counsel to the General
    Partner and its corporate affiliates.  As such, it provides legal services
    to the Partnership in connection with its operations, real property
    investments and related matters at its usual rate for such services.

Competition

Warwick Apartments competes with similar properties in its vicinity (see Item 2,
"Properties").

ITEM 2  PROPERTIES

The following is a brief description of Warwick Apartments:


                                          Year       Percentage of
                        Number of     Construction   Occupancy at
Location                Apt. Units      Completed   December 29, 1995

Fort Worth, Texas        100 Units        1971             71%

Warwick Apartments competes with properties which are of similar age and
construction, as well as with properties with more modern construction and
amenities.  Occupancy at the property has been severely affected by damages
resulting from a hailstorm on May 5, 1995 (see Item I, "Business" for
additional information).


ITEM 3    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS 
   
The Partnership is a defendant, from time to time, in various actions brought by
tenants, contractors, materialmen and others in connection with the
Partnership's property, many of which are covered by the liability insurance
maintained by the Partnership.  The Partnership believes that the effect, if
any, of these suits on the financial condition of the Partnership will not be
material.


ITEM 4    SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

None.



                                   PART II


ITEM 5    MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S PARTNERSHIP UNITS AND RELATED SECURITY
   HOLDER MATTERS.

To the best knowledge of the General Partner, there is no public trading market
for the Partnership Units.  Since such a market does not exist for the resale
of the Units, market prices cannot be ascertained.  There are approximately 417
holders of the Units as of December 31, 1995.

Cash Distributions to Partners

There were no cash distributions declared by the General Partner during the past
two years.  Distributions are generally paid to the Partners in the quarter
subsequent to their declaration.

ITEM 7  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS

The current operations of the Partnership are centered on Warwick Apartments.

Total revenues decreased $14,156 or 4% from 1994 to 1995.  Rents and other
tenant charges decreased $32,612 or 9% due primarily to lost rents as a result
of damage sustained to various units during the hailstorm on May 5, 1995 (see
below).  Insurance proceeds are anticipated to be sufficient to reimburse the
Partnership for lost rents. Other income increased $18,456 or 60% due primarily
to real estate tax refunds received on Warwick Apartments as a result of
assessment appeals for prior years.

The Partnership's total revenues increased $13,475 or 3% in 1994, as compared
to 1993. There was a $25,463 or 7% increase in rents and other tenant charges
due to an overall increase in occupancy at Warwick Apartments.  Other income
decreased $11,988 or 28% in 1994, compared to 1993, due primarily to a refund
of real estate taxes in 1993 on Warwick Apartments as a result of an assessment
appeal.

The Partnership's total expenses increased $41,173 or 8% in 1995, as compared
to 1994. There was a $20,172 or 19% increase in repair and maintenance as
efforts continue to enhance the appearance and salability of Warwick Apartments.

Total expenses increased $4,059 or 1% in 1994, as compared to 1993.  Utility
costs increased $2,617 or 3% from 1993 to 1994 due primarily to increased water
and sewer costs at Warwick Apartments as a result of increased consumption
during the fourth quarter.  There was a $2,785 or 3% increase in depreciation
due to amortization of costs associated with improvements to the property during
1994.

On May 5, 1995, Warwick Apartments sustained significant damage as a result of a
hailstorm which hit the Fort Worth, Texas area.  Due to the damage, occupancy
at the property declined approximately 16%.  Damage to the property has
subsequently been repaired and management is currently in the process of
re-marketing and leasing the vacant units.  The Partnership is presently in
negotiations with the insurance carrier to reach a settlement with regard to
the property damages and rental loss.  As a result of the damage sustained, the
carrying value of the damaged property has been reduced along with the
corresponding accumulated depreciation, resulting in the recognition of net
gain from insurance proceeds related to storm damage of $103,169.

An allowance for loss on real estate in the amount of $525,000 was established
in 1991 based on an analysis of net realizable value of Warwick Apartments.  The
property is currently on the market for sale.

The liquidity of the Partnership is dependent upon the timely receipt of cash
collections on rental revenue.  There are no credit facilities currently in
place, and Limited Partners have no obligation to provide additional funds in
excess of their initial cash contributions.  In order to protect the Partnership
in the event of a reduction in cash flow, management closely monitors the
Partnership's cash position and, when necessary, reserves adequate funds to
continue the operations of the Partnership in the foreseeable future.  Funds
reserved are generally invested in short-term investments.  The General Partner
believes that the Partnership maintains adequate liquidity on a short-term basis
as a result of its cash flow and reserve policies; however, there can be no
assurance of the continued performance of Warwick Apartments. 
A decline in performance could have a negative effect upon the long-term
liquidity of the Partnership.  Funds generated from operations have primarily
been used to meet Partnership obligations and, when possible, distribute funds
to the Partners.  There was no distribution of funds during the year ended
December 31, 1995.

                            Independent Auditors' Report

  
The Partners
MultiVest Real Estate Fund, Ltd. (Series I):


We have audited the accompanying statements of financial condition of MultiVest
Real Estate Fund, Ltd. (Series I) (a Michigan limited partnership) as of 
December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the related statements of operations, changes
in partners' capital, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year
period ended December 31, 1995.  These financial statements are the 
responsibility of the Partnership's management.  Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements 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.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of MultiVest Real Estate Fund,
Ltd. (Series I) (a Michigan limited partnership) at December 31, 1995 and 1994,
and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in
the three-year period ended December 31, 1995, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

                        NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
            For the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 
                                                 



1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

    Investment in Real Estate

    The Partnership's investment in real estate is carried at the lower of cost
    or estimated fair value.  All expenditures for improvements are capitalized.
    The costs of repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred.
    Upon sale or retirement, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are
    removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in income in
    accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 66.

    The Partnership adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121
    - Accounting for the Impairment of Long Lived Assets and for Long Lived
    Assets to be Disposed Of - as of January 1, 1995, and accordingly evaluates
    its real estate investments periodically to assess whether any impairment
    indications are present, including recurring operating losses and
    significant adverse changes in legal factors or business climate that affect
    the recovery of the recorded value.  If any real estate investment is
    considered impaired, a loss is provided to reduce the carrying value of the
    property to its estimated fair value.  The implementation of this standard
    had no financial impact on the financial statements.

    Depreciation

    The Partnership depreciates land improvements, buildings and building
    improvements using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives
    of the assets. Depreciation is computed using the following useful lives:

                                          Years
   
             Land Improvements          10 to 15
             Buildings                     16
             Building Improvements       2 to 10


    Accounting for Real Estate Sales

    Sales of real estate are accounted for in accordance with Statement of
    Financial Accounting Standards No. 66 - Accounting for Sales of Real Estate.
    For sales of real estate where both cost recovery is reasonably certain
    and the collectibility of the contract price is reasonably assured, but
    the transactions do not meet the remaining requirements to be recorded on
    the accrual basis, profit is recognized under the installment method, which
    recognizes profit as collections of principal are received.  If developments
    subsequent to the adoption of the installment method occur which cause the
    transaction to meet the requirements of the full accrual method, the
    remaining deferred profit is recognized at that time.

    Use of Estimates

    The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
    accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
    assumptions that affect certain reported amounts in the financial statements
    and accompanying notes.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued

    Fair Value of Financial Instruments

    The fair values of the Partnership's financial instruments, including
    mortgage notes and accounts receivable, mortgage notes and accounts payable,
    accrued expenses, security deposits, and other financial instruments,
    generally determined using the present value of estimated future cash flows
    using a discount rate commensurate with the risks involved, approximate
    their carrying or contract values.

    Cash Equivalents

    For purposes of the Statements of Cash Flows, all highly liquid investments
    purchased with a maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash
    equivalents.  These investments consist principally of repurchase 
    agreements and Treasury Bills.

    
    Storm Damage

    Property damage resulting from a hail storm has been written off in the
    fourth quarter based upon estimates obtained from general contractors 
    involved in the repair of the property.  Repairs for property damage are
    capitalized and included in construction in progress until completed.  The
    difference between the loss sustained and the insurance proceeds received
    is recorded as a gain or loss related to storm damage.  Management 
    anticipates additional proceeds to be received in 1996.

5.  Related-Party Transactions, continued

    MultiVest Real Estate, Inc. is the Corporate General Partner of the
    Partnership. The Partnership Agreement permits the Corporate General
    Partner to provide certain services to the Partnership and to employ
    certain affiliates of the Corporate General Partner to provide services
    to the Partnership and obtain reimbursement therefor.  The services
    provided encompass:

         (1)  Investment management services - MultiVest Real Estate, Inc.

         (2)  Mortgage servicing - M.V. National Properties, Inc.

         (3)  Real estate management - M.V. National Properties, Inc.

    Management is of the opinion that these transactions were executed for a
    consideration approximately equivalent to that which would have been paid to
    unaffiliated firms.

    The Partnership Agreement provides that the General Partner is entitled to
    an annual Investment Management Fee equal to 1/2 of 1% of the Partnership
    assets as they appear on the year-end balance sheet of the Partnership
    (prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles),
    except that there shall be no reduction for accumulated depreciation and
    amortization.  For the year ended December 31, 1995, the Corporate General
    Partner earned an Investment Management Fee of $9,085.

    In addition, under the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner is
    entitled to an annual Performance Incentive Fee based upon the following
    formula:  The Performance Incentive Fee is earned only if the sum of (1)
    net realized appreciation on the sale of Partnership property plus (2)
    net income of the Partnership as determined by generally accepted
    accounting principles after the deduction of depreciation and the General
    Partner's fees (except the Performance Incentive Fee) from operations of
    the Partnership plus (3) an amount equal to 50% of the depreciation taken
    in that year, is equal to or in excess of 10% of total capital contributions
    to the Partnership.  The Performance Incentive Fee is payable on an annual
    basis and ranges from 1/8 of 1% to 3/8 of 1% of gross Partnership assets
    depending upon percentages determined by the above formula.  A Performance
    Incentive Fee was not earned by the Corporate General Partner in 1995,
    1994 or 1993.

    The Partnership Agreement also obligates the Partnership to reimburse the
    Corporate General Partner for all expenses, including, but not limited to,
    salaries, wages, legal and accounting fees and overhead expenses, reasonably
    incurred by it in managing the business of the Partnership, and allows the
    Corporate General Partner to employ affiliates or other subsidiaries to
    render services to the Partnership as independent contractors.  Affiliates
    of the General Partner may be engaged to perform normal property management
    services.  For the year ended December 31, 1995, an affiliate earned $17,427
    as its Property Management Fee.

    In addition, the Partnership Agreement provides that the General Partner has
    the right and power to employ persons in the operation and management of the
    Partnership business, including, but not limited to, supervisory managing
    agents, building management agents, insurance brokers, real estate brokers
    and loan brokers, on such terms and for such compensation as the General
    Partner shall determine.  The General Partner is empowered to employ in such
    capacities an affiliate or subsidiary of the General Partner on terms
    comparable to those offered by unaffiliated firms.


6.  General Partner Participation in Income, Loss, and Distributions

    The General Partner participates in the income, loss, and distributions of
    the Partnership in proportion of Partnership units owned to the total
    Partnership units outstanding.


7.  Income Taxes

    MultiVest Real Estate Fund, Ltd. (Series I) is a Partnership and has no
    liability for federal income taxes.  The Partners include in their
    individual income tax returns their proportionate share of any income or
    loss of the Partnership.
    
    Net loss, total assets and Partners' capital as reported in the accompanying
    financial statements are less than net loss, total assets and Partners'
    capital as reported in the Partnership's 1995 tax return by approximately
    $25,981, $503,131 and $503,131, respectively.  The following are differences
    related to net loss as of and for the years ended December 31:

8.  Dissolution of the Partnership

    Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership was required to
    obtain an independent appraisal of the Partnership's properties during 1981
    for the purpose of determining the Net Asset Value (as defined in the
    Partnership Agreement) of each Partnership Unit and to either repurchase
    Limited Partnership Units, if offered by Limited Partners, or proceed with
    the dissolution of the Partnership. The General Partner elected not to
    purchase units offered by Limited Partners and proceeded with the
    liquidation of the Partnership.  The General Partner anticipates
    continuation of its dissolution and winding up of the Partnership.

    of $525,000 based on an analysis of net realizable value of Warwick
    Apartments.

12. Contingencies

    The Partnership is a defendant, from time to time, in various actions
    brought by tenants, contractors, materialmen and others in connection with
    the Partnership's property, many of which are covered by the liability
    insurance maintained by the Partnership.  The Partnership believes that the
    effect, if any, of these suits on the financial condition of the Partnership
    will not be material.

ITEM 13   CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Under the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner is entitled to an annual
Investment Management Fee equal to 1/2 of 1% of the Partnership assets as they
appear on the year-end balance sheet of the Partnership (prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles), without a reduction for
accumulated depreciation and amortization.  For the year ended December 31,
1995, the General Partner earned an Investment Management Fee of $9,085.

The Partnership Agreement entitles the General Partner to an annual Performance
Incentive Fee, based upon the following formula:  The Performance Incentive Fee
is only earned if the sum of the following amounts equals or exceeds 10% of
total capital contributions to the Partnership: (1) net realized appreciation on
the sale of Partnership property; plus (2) net income of the Partnership as
determined by generally accepted accounting principles after the deduction of
depreciation and the General Partner's fees (except the Performance Incentive
Fee) from the operations of the Partnership; plus (3) an amount equal to 50% of
the depreciation taken in that year. The Performance Incentive Fee is payable on
an annual basis and ranges from 1/8 of 1% to 3/8 of 1% of gross Partnership
assets depending upon percentages determined by the above formula.  The General
Partner did not earn a Performance Incentive Fee in 1995.

The Partnership Agreement also requires the Partnership to reimburse the General
Partner for all expenses, including salaries, wages, legal and accounting fees
and overhead expenses, reasonably incurred by it in managing the business of the
Partnership, and allows the General Partner to employ affiliates or other
subsidiaries of its parent to render services to the partnership as independent
contractors.

In addition, the Partnership Agreement provides that the General Partner has the
right and power to employ persons in the operation and management of the
Partnership business, including supervisory managing agents, building management
agents, insurance brokers, real estate brokers and loan brokers, on such terms
and for such compensation as the General Partner shall determine.  The General
Partner may employ in such capacities an affiliate or subsidiary of the General
Partner on terms comparable to those offered by unaffiliated firms. An affiliate

services.  For the year ended December 31, 1995, an affiliate earned $17,427
as its Property Management Fee.
