                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Accounting Policies:

(a) For financial statement purposes, in previous years partners were allocated
income and loss in accordance with the profit and loss percentages in the
Partnership Agreement. In order for the capital accounts of the General Partner
and Limited Partners to appropriately reflect their respective remaining
economic interests as provided for in the Partnership Agreement, the General
Partner was allocated no income or loss in 1997.
 
(b) In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation have been made to the accompanying statements for the six months
and quarter ended June 30 1997, and all such adjustments are of a normal and
recurring nature.

2. Partnership Termination:

The Partnership Agreement provides for the dissolution of the Partnership upon
the occurrence of certain events, including the disposition of all interests in
real estate. The Partnership sold all of its remaining properties in 1996. The
Partnership distributed a majority of the proceeds from the sales in 1996 and
1997. The Partnership has retained a portion of the proceeds from the sales to
satisfy obligations of the Partnership as well as establish a reserve for
contingencies. The timing of the termination of the Partnership and final
distribution of cash will depend upon the nature and extent of liabilities and
contingencies which exist or may arise. Such contingencies may include legal
and other fees stemming from litigation involving the Partnership, including
but not limited to, the lawsuits discussed in Note 5 of Notes to Financial
Statements. In the absence of any such contingency, the reserves will be paid
within twelve months of the last property sale. In the event a contingency
continues to exist or arises, reserves may be held by the Partnership for a
longer period of time.

3. Interest Expense:

During the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Partnership incurred and paid
interest expense on mortgage notes payable of $1,437,836.

4. Transactions with Affiliates:

Fees and expenses paid and payable by the Partnership to affiliates during the
six months and quarter ended June 30, 1997 were:

                                           Paid
                                    ----------------------
                                     Six Months    Quarter      Payable
                                    ------------  ---------    ----------     
   Reimbursement of expenses to
     the General Partner, at cost   $21,690        $11,894    $45,482


During 1996, the Partnership repaid the General Partner loan with proceeds from
the sale of the Brierwood Apartments. During the six months ended June 30,
1996, the Partnership incurred interest expense of $16,981 and paid interest
expense of $17,050 on the loan. Interest expense on the General Partner loan
was computed at the American Express Company cost of funds rate plus a spread
to cover administrative costs. As of June 30, 1996, this rate was 5.911%. 

5. Contingencies: 

The Partnership is currently involved in two lawsuits whereby the Partnership
and certain affiliates have been named as defendants alleging substantially
similar claims involving certain federal securities law violations with regard
to the adequacy and accuracy of disclosures of information concerning, as well
as marketing efforts related to, the offering of the Limited Partnership
Interests of the Partnership. The defendants continue to vigorously contest
these actions. A plaintiff class has not been certified in either action and,
no determinations of the merits have been made. It is not determinable at this
time whether or not an unfavorable decision in either action would have a
material adverse impact on the financial position, operations and liquidity of
the Partnership. The Partnership believes it has meritorious defenses to
contest the claims.

                       (An Illinois Limited Partnership)

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Balcor Equity Properties-XII (the "Partnership") was formed in 1981 to invest
in and operate income-producing real property. The Partnership raised
$37,447,000 through the sale of Limited Partnership Interests and utilized
these proceeds to acquire seven real property investments and a minority joint
venture interest in one additional real property. Prior to 1997, all properties
were disposed of, including the property in which the Partnership held a
minority joint venture interest. 

Inasmuch as the management's discussion and analysis below relates primarily to
the time period since the end of the last fiscal year, investors are encouraged
to review the financial statements and the management's discussion and analysis
contained in the annual report for 1996 for a more complete understanding of
the Partnership's financial position.

Operations
- ----------

Summary of Operations
- ---------------------

The 1996 sales of the Partnership's properties, which were generating income
from operations prior to their sales were the primary reason net income
decreased during the six months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to the same
period in 1996. Higher interest income earned on short-term investments and
lower administrative expenses during 1997 partially offset the decrease and
were the primary reasons a net loss was generated for the quarter ended June
30, 1997 as compared to net income for the same period in 1996. Further
discussion of the Partnership's operations is summarized below.

1997 Compared to 1996
- ---------------------

Unless otherwise noted, discussion of fluctuations between 1997 and 1996 refer
to the six months and quarters ended June 30, 1997 and 1996.

As a result of the 1996 sales of the Brierwood, Cedar Ridge, DeFoors Creek,
Sandridge - Phase I and Somerset Village apartment complexes, rental and
service income, interest expense on mortgage notes payable, depreciation,
amortization of deferred expenses and property management fees ceased during
1996. 

Due to higher average cash balances resulting from the investment of net
proceeds received in connection with the 1996 property sales prior to
distribution to Limited Partners in January and April 1997, interest income on
short-term investments increased during 1997 as compared to 1996.
<PAGE>
During 1996, the Partnership incurred interest on short-term loan - affiliate.
The loan was repaid in 1996 with proceeds from the sale of the Brierwood
Apartments and interest expense ceased.

As a result of the 1996 property sales, property operating expense decreased
during 1997 as compared to 1996. During 1997, the Partnership paid expenses
related to properties sold in 1996.

As a result of the 1996 property sales, real estate tax expense decreased
during 1997 as compared to 1996. During 1997, the Partnership paid additional
real estate taxes as a result of an increase in the assessed value of the
DeFoors Creek Apartments, which was sold in 1996.

The Partnership incurred higher investor processing, printing and postage costs
in connection with a tender offer response during the first quarter of 1996,
which resulted in a decrease in administrative expenses during 1997 as compared
to 1996. In addition, higher portfolio management fees incurred in 1996
contributed to the above decrease.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

The cash position of the Partnership as of June 30, 1997 decreased by
approximately $18,025,000 as compared to December 31, 1996 primarily due to the
1997 distributions to Limited Partners of proceeds received in connection with
the 1996 property sales. Cash of approximately $56,000 was provided by
operating activities consisting of interest income on short-term investments
and the collection of accounts receivable relating to escrow and insurance
refunds which were offset by  the payment of administrative expenses and
expenses related to properties sold in 1996. Cash used in financing activities
consisted of the payment of distributions to Limited Partners of approximately
$18,081,000. 

The Partnership sold all of its remaining properties during 1996. A majority of
the proceeds from the property sales was distributed to Limited Partners in
October 1996, and in January and April 1997. The Partnership has retained a
portion of the cash to satisfy obligations of the Partnership as well as
establish a reserve for contingencies. The timing of the termination of the
Partnership and final distribution of cash will depend upon the nature and
extent of liabilities and contingencies which exist or may arise. Such
contingencies may include legal and other fees stemming from litigation
involving the Partnership including, but not limited to, the lawsuits discussed
in Note 5 of Notes to Financial Statements. In the absence of any such
contingency, the reserves will be paid within twelve months of the last
property sale. In the event a contingency continues to exist or arises,
reserves may be held by the Partnership for a longer period of time.

To date, investors have received distributions of Net Cash Receipts of $70 and
Net Cash Proceeds of $558.35, totaling $628.35 per $1,000 Interest, as well as
certain tax benefits. Since all of the Partnership's properties have been sold,
no additional quarterly distributions are expected. Investors will not recover
all of their original investment.
