ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
As of November 10, 1998, Imowitz Koenig & Co., LLP, the independent accountant
previously engaged as the principal accountant to audit the financial statements
of Century Properties Fund XIX (the "Registrant" or the "Partnership"), was
dismissed.
The audit reports of Imowitz Koenig & Co., LLP on the financial statements of
the Partnership as of and for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, did
not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they
qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
The decision to change accountants was recommended by the Managing General
Partner of the Partnership.
During the Partnership's two most recent fiscal years and any subsequent interim
period preceding the change, there were no disagreements with the former
accountant on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial
statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if
not resolved to the satisfaction of the former accountant, would have caused it
to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with
its report. In addition, there have been no "reportable events" (as defined in
paragraph (a)(1)(iv)(B) of Item 304 of regulation S-B) during the periods noted
above.
The Registrant has provided a copy of this disclosure to the former accountant,
and the Registrant requested that the former accountant furnish the Registrant
with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating
whether it agrees with the statements made by the Registrant, and, if not,
stating the respects in which it does not agree. A copy of the former
accountant's response indicating agreement is included as an exhibit to this
report.
ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS
(c) Exhibits
16.1 Letter dated November 11, 1998, from the Registrant's former
independent accountant regarding its concurrence with the
statements made by the Registrant in this Current Report.
SIGNATURE
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the
Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the
undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
