(1)Accounting Policies

Certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or
omitted in this report on Form 10-Q pursuant
to the Rules and Regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission.  In the opinion of
the General Partners of Krupp Realty Fund,
Ltd.-III and Subsidiary (the "Partnership"),
the disclosures contained in this report are
adequate to make the information presented not
misleading.  See Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements included in the
Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 1998 for
additional information relevant to significant
accounting policies followed by the
Partnership.

In the opinion of the General Partners of the
Partnership, the accompanying unaudited
consolidated financial statements reflect all
adjustments (consisting of only normal
recurring accruals) necessary to present
fairly the Partnership's consolidated
financial position as of September 30, 1999,
its results of operations for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998,
and its cash flows for nine months ended
September 30, 1999 and 1998.  Certain prior
period balances have been reclassified to
conform with current period consolidated
financial statement presentation.

The results of operations for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 1999 are not
necessarily indicative of the results which
may be expected for the full year.  See
Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations

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 General Partners, on an ongoing basis,
assess the current and future liquidity needs
in determining the levels of working capital
reserves the Partnership should maintain.
Adjustments to distributions are made when
appropriate to reflect such assessments.  The
current annual distribution rate is $31.72 per
Unit, and is paid semiannually in February and
August.

In the third quarter of 1999, occupancy rates
for the Partnership's properties
("Properties") remained below the historically
high levels achieved in 1998 of between 99%
and 100% as of December 31, 1998 with rates of
approximately 98% (in the case of the Hannibal
Grove Apartments), 97% (in the case of the
Brookeville Apartments) and 98% (in the case
of the Dorsey's Forge Apartments) as of
September 30, 1999.

In March 1999, the Property Manager prepared a
five year 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.  The aggregate cost of
implementing the five year Capital Plan is
estimated to be approximately $10,000,000.

The General Partners are in the process of
finalizing the Capital Plan, which may not be
practicable for the Partnership to implement
promptly and fully because of the possible
need for additional investment of capital,
additional borrowings and/or the
discontinuation of future cash distributions
from the Partnership.  However, the General
Partners believe additional capital
improvements will be needed in the future and
may be over and above historical levels.

Year 2000

The General Partners of the Partnership
conducted an assessment of the Partnership's
core internal and external computer
information systems and have taken the
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 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. The General Partners
incurred hardware costs as well as consulting
and other expenses related to the
infrastructure and facilities enhancements
necessary to complete the upgrade and prepare
for the Year 2000.  There are no other
significant internal systems or software that
the Partnership is using at the present time.

The General Partners of the Partnership have
evaluated Year 2000 compliance issues with
respect to its non-financial systems, such as
computer controlled elevators, boilers,
chillers and other miscellaneous systems. The
General Partners do not anticipate any
problems in its non-financial systems.

The General Partners of the Partnership
surveyed the Partnership's material third-
party service providers (including but not
limited to its banks and telecommunications
providers) and significant vendors and
received assurances that such providers and
vendors are to be Year 2000 ready.  The
General Partners do not anticipate any
problems with such providers and vendors that
would materially impact its results of
operations, liquidity or capital resources.

In addition, the Partnership is also subject
to external forces that might generally affect
industry and commerce, such as utility and
transportation company Year 2000 readiness
failures and related service interruptions.
However, the General Partners do not
anticipate these would materially impact its
results of operations, liquidity or capital
resources.

To date, the Partnership has not incurred, and
does not expect to incur, any significant cost
associated with being Year 2000 ready.

Operations

Net income increased for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 1999, as compared
to the three and nine months ended September
30, 1998, as expenses for the three months
ended September 30, 1999 remained relatively
stable while total revenue for the period
increased and the increase in expenses for the
nine months ended September 30, 1999 was less
than the increase in total revenue for the
period.

Total revenue increased for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 1999, as compared
to the three and nine months ended September
30, 1998, primarily due to rental rate
increases implemented at all the Partnership's
properties.

Total expenses remained stable for the three
months ended September 30, 1999, as compared
to the same period in 1998 as increases in
operating expenses were offset by decreases in
depreciation and amortization.  Operating
expense increased in 1999 as a result of an
increase in workmen's compensation expense due
to an adjustment to the workmen's compensation
reserve in 1998 as well as increases in
utility expenses.  Depreciation and
amortization expense decreased as previously
purchased fixed assets became fully
depreciated.

Total expenses increased for the nine months
ended September 30, 1999 as compared to the
same period in 1998 as a result of increases
in operating, general and administration and
maintenance expenses.  Operating expense
increased in 1999 as a result of an increase
in workmen's compensation expense due to an
adjustment to the workmen's compensation
reserve in 1998 as well as increases in
payroll and utility expenses.  General and
administrative expenses increased as a result
of increases in legal costs primarily
associated with the Partnership's response to
the tender offer made by Madison Liquidity
Investors 104, LLC to purchase Partnership
units during the second quarter.  Maintenance
increased due to increases in snow removal
expenses at all properties during the first
quarter, increases in landscaping expenses at
Dorsey's Forge and Brookeville and increases
in plumbing expenses at Dorsey's Forge and
Hannibal Grove.
