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

This Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
contains forward-looking statements including
those concerning Management's expectations
regarding the future financial performance and
future events.  These forward-looking
statements involve significant risk and
uncertainties, including those described
herein.  Actual results may differ materially
from those anticipated by such forward-looking
statements.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Partnership's ability to generate cash
adequate to meet its needs is dependent
primarily upon the operations of its real
estate investments.  Such ability is also
dependent upon the future availability of
bank borrowings and the potential refinancing
and sale of the Partnership's remaining real
estate investments.  These sources of
liquidity will be used by the Partnership for
payment of expenses related to real estate
operations, capital expenditures, debt
service and expenses.  Cash Flow, if any, as
calculated under Section 8.2(a) of the
Partnership Agreement, will then be available
for distribution to the Partners.

The Partnership has spent approximately
$260,000 to date and is expected to spend
approximately $995,000 for capital
improvements at its properties in 1998.  The
Partnership believes that the improvements
are necessary to compete in its current
markets, produce quality rental units and
absorb excess demands  at the properties'
respective locations and to both maintain and
increase current occupancy levels.
Renovations include the replacement of
countertops, carpeting, appliances, pavement
upgrades and both interior and exterior
building improvements.  The Partnership
expects to fund these improvements from
established reserves and cash generated from
property operations.

Operations

Net income increased for the three months
ended March 31, 1998, as compared to the
three months ended March 31, 1997, with an
increase in total revenue and a decrease in
total expenses.

Total revenue increased for the three months
ended March 31, 1998, as compared to the
three months ended March 31, 1997, due to
increases in average occupancy rates at all
of the Partnership's properties.  Occupancy
rates for the first quarters of 1998 and 1997
at Brookeville, Hannibal Grove, and Dorsey's
Forge Apartments averaged 100%, 100%, and
99%, and 98%, 99%, and 98%, respectively. 
Other income increased as a result of higher
interest earned on the replacement reserve
escrow account. 

Total expenses decreased for the three months
ended March 31, 1998, as compared to the
three months ended March 31, 1997, as a
result of lower maintenance, general and
administrative and depreciation expenses. 
Maintenance expense decreased due to
completion of landscaping, snow removal
expenditures and interior building repairs
completed at the Partnership's properties
during 1997.  General and administrative
expense decreased as a result of 1997 legal
costs relating to the unsolicited tender
offer to purchase Partnership Units. 
Depreciation expense decreased as fixed asset
additions purchased in previous years became
fully depreciated.
