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
distribution paid in February, 1999 was
increased from an annual rate of $23.79 per
Unit, to $31.72 per Unit.
In the first quarter of 1999, occupancy rates
for the Partnership's properties
("Properties") declined from the historically
high levels achieved in 1998 of between 99%
and 100% as of December 31, 1998 to
approximately 94% (in the case of the
Hannibal Grove Apartments), 97% (in the case
of the Brookeville Apartments) and 97.5% (in
the case of the Dorsey's Forge Apartments) as
of March 31, 1999. Moreover, the managing
agent for the Properties(an affiliate of the
General Partners) ("Property Manager")
granted increased rental concessions to
tenants in order to achieve these occupancy
rates.
The Property Manager believes that this
decline in occupancy rates is attributable to
significantly increased competition resulting
from newly constructed or renovated housing
entering the markets served by the
Properties, a trend that the Property Manager
believes is expected to continue over the
next several years. In Columbus, Ohio,
approximately 8,600 new units have been
constructed in the past eighteen months or
are currently under construction, and in
Columbia, Maryland, approximately 961 newly
renovated units have entered the market in
the past year, with an additional 974 units
currently undergoing renovation.
In March 1999, the Property Manager prepared
a capital improvement plan(the "Capital
Plan") setting forth capital improvements
that it believes a third party purchaser of
the Properties would regard as necessary to
maintain the Properties' current occupancy
and rent levels (subject to inflationary
increases), in light of the increased
competition in the markets served by the
Partnership.
These capital improvements include interior
rehabilitation, replacement of windows,
roofs, piping and HVAC systems, as well as
improvements to parking lots, landscaping and
exterior painting (collectively, the
"Improvements"). The aggregate cost of
implementing the Capital Plan is estimated to
be approximately $10,000,000. The Property
Manager has advised the General Partners that
in view of the new or newly renovated housing
alternatives in the areas served by the
Properties, the current occupancy rates
enjoyed by the Properties may not be
sustained unless the Capital Plan is
implemented, particularly since many of the
newer residential units will have amenities
such as fitness centers, tennis courts and
swimming pools that the Properties do not.

KRUPP REALTY FUND, LTD. - III AND
SUBSIDIARY
Liquidity and Capital Resources, Continued
The General Partners have not yet determined
the Partnership's response to the challenges
presented by these market developments.
However, the Property Manager believes that
prompt and full implementation of the Capital
Plan by the Partnership may not be
practicable because it would require the
investment of additional equity capital,
additional borrowings and/or the
discontinuation of future cash distributions
from the Partnership.
The General Partners of the Partnership have
conducted an assessment of the Partnership's
core internal and external computer
information systems and have taken the
further necessary steps to understand the
nature and extent of the work required to
make its systems Year 2000 ready in those
situations in which it is required to do so.
The Year 2000 readiness issue concerns the
inability of computerized information systems
to accurately calculate, store or use a date
after 1999. This could result in a system
failure or miscalculations causing
disruptions of operations. The Year 2000
issue affects virtually all companies and all
organizations.
In this regard, the General Partners of the
Partnership, along with certain affiliates,
began a computer systems project in 1997 to
significantly upgrade its existing hardware
and software. The General Partners completed
the testing and conversion of the financial
accounting operating systems in February
1998. As a result, the General Partners have
generated operating efficiencies and believe
their financial accounting operating systems
are Year 2000 ready. Costs incurred by the
Partnership are not significant to date.
There are no other systems or software that
the Partnership is using at the present time.
The General Partners of the Partnership are
currently in the process of identifying,
evaluating and remedying the Partnership's
Year 2000 compliance issues with respect to
its non-financial systems, such as computer
controlled elevators, boilers, chillers or
other miscellaneous systems. The General
Partners are in the process of completing the
Partnership's Year 2000 compliance
initiatives at its properties. Based on
their identification and assessment efforts
to date, the General Partners believe that
certain of the computer equipment and
software the Partnership currently uses will
require modification or replacement.
However, the General Partners do not believe
that the future efforts to achieve the
Partnership's Year 2000 compliance
initiatives will result in material cost to
the Partnership or significantly interrupt
services or operations.
The General Partners are in the process of
evaluating the potential adverse impact that
could result from the failure of material
third-party service providers (including but
not limited to its banks and
telecommunications providers) and significant
vendors to be Year 2000 ready. No estimate
can be made at this time as to the impact of
the readiness of such third parties.
However, if any of the third party service
providers cease to conduct business due to
Year 2000 related problems, the General
Partners expect to be able to contract with
alternate providers without experiencing any
material adverse effects on the Partnership's
financial condition and results of
operations. The Partnership is in the
process of coordinating their contingency
plan with the property manager in charge of
operations.
Operations
Net income decreased for the three months
ended March 31, 1999, as compared to the
three months ended March 31, 1998, as the
increase in total expenses more than offset
the increase in total revenue.
Continued
KRUPP REALTY FUND, LTD. - III AND SUBSIDIARY
Operations, Continued
While total revenue increased for the three
months ended March 31, 1999, as compared to
the three months ended March 31, 1998,
primarily due to rental rate increases
implemented at all the Partnership's
properties, the increases achieved have not
been significant as had been planned.
Total expenses increased for the three months
ended March 31, 1999, as compared to the
three months ended March 31, 1998, as a
result of increases in operating and
maintenance expenses. Operating expense
increased primarily due to an increase in
utilities as a result of a 1998 adjustment
for an overestimate of water and sewer costs
at Brookeville Apartments. Maintenance
expense increased due to landscaping
expenditures at Dorsey's Forge Apartments and
snow removal, interior building repairs and
carpet cleaning completed at Hannibal Grove
Apartments.
