                       NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Accounting Policies:

(a) For financial statement purposes, the capital accounts of the General
Partner and the Limited Partners have been adjusted to appropriately
reflect their remaining economic interests as provided for in the
Partnership Agreement.
      
(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, 1998, 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 has retained a portion of the cash from
the property sales to satisfy obligations of the Partnership as well as
establish a reserve for contingencies. The timing of the termination of the
Partnership and the 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 and costs stemming from
litigation involving the Partnership, including but not limited to, the
lawsuits discussed in Note 4 of Notes to the Financial Statements. Due to
this litigation, the Partnership will not be dissolved and the reserves
will be held by the Partnership until the conclusion of all contingencies.
There can be no assurances as to the time frame for conclusion of these
contingencies.

3. Transactions with Affiliates:

Fees and expenses paid and payable by the Partnership to affiliates during
the six months and quarter ended June 30, 1998 were:
                                                    
                                           Paid
                                   -------------------------
                                     Six Months     Quarter    Payable
                                    ------------   ---------  ---------

   Reimbursement of expenses to
     the General Partner, at cost   $ 7,796        $ 3,793    $ 32,175


4. Contingencies: 

The Partnership is currently involved in two lawsuits whereby the
<PAGE>
Partnership and certain affiliates have been named as defendants alleging
substantially similar claims involving certain state securities and common
law violations with regard to the property acquisition process of the
Partnership, and 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 of the Partnership. The Partnership believes it has
meritorious defenses to contest the claims.

                     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. As of June 30, 1998, the
Partnership has no properties remaining in its portfolio. 

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 1997 for a more complete understanding of
the Partnership's financial position.

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

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

Administrative expenses were higher than interest income earned on short-term
investments, which resulted in a net loss during the six months and quarter
ended June 30, 1998 and was the reason the Partnership incurred a net loss
during the quarter ended June 30, 1997. The payment of operating expenses
related to certain properties sold during 1996 also contributed to the loss
during the quarter ended June 30, 1997. The Partnership recognized net income
during the six months ended June 30, 1997 due to higher interest income earned
on short-term investments in connection with proceeds received from property
sales during the first quarter of 1997 which was offset by administrative and
operating expenses. Further discussion of the Partnership's operations is
summarized below.

1998 Compared to 1997
- ---------------------

Unless otherwise noted, discussion of fluctuations between 1998 and 1997 refer
to both the six months and quarters ended June 30, 1998 and 1997.

Due to higher average cash balances in 1997 as a result of the investment of
proceeds received in connection with the 1996 property sales prior to
distributions to Limited Partners in 1997, interest income on short term
investments was higher during 1997 as compared to 1998.

During 1997, the Partnership paid additional expenditures related to certain of
the properties sold during 1996. As a result, the Partnership recognized
property operating expense during 1997.
<PAGE>
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. As a result, the Partnership recognized real estate tax expense
during the six months ended June 30, 1997.

Administrative expenses decreased during 1998 as compared to 1997 primarily due
to a decrease in accounting and bank fees which were partially offset by higher
legal fees in 1998.

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

The cash position of the Partnership decreased by approximately $324,000 as of
June 30, 1998 as compared to December 31, 1997 primarily due to a distribution
to the Limited Partners in January 1998 from remaining available Net Cash
Proceeds. The Partnership used cash of approximately $14,000 to fund its
operating activities, which consisted of the payment of administrative expenses
which were partially offset by interest income earned on short-term investments
and the collection of an accounts receivable related to a sold property. Cash
used in financing activities consisted of the payment of a distribution to the
Limited Partners of approximately $310,000.

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 has retained a portion of the cash from the property 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 include legal and
other fees and costs stemming from litigation involving the Partnership
including, but not limited to, the lawsuits discussed in Note 4 of Notes to
Financial Statements. Due to this litigation, the Partnership will not be
dissolved and the reserves will be held by the Partnership until the conclusion
of all contingencies. There can be no assurances as to the time frame for
conclusion of these contingencies.

To date, Limited Partners have received distributions of Net Cash Receipts of
$70 and Net Cash Proceeds of $566.63, totaling $636.63 per $1,000 Interest, as
well as certain tax benefits. No distributions are anticipated to be made prior
to the termination of the Partnership. However, after paying final partnership
expenses, any remaining cash reserves will be distributed. Limited Partners
will not recover all of their original investment.
